Another :O moment
“Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden.” Genesis 3:8
I dunno about you but I was like totally “what?!?!?!?!” when I read about God walking in the garden…… AMIDST PEOPLE. Can you imagine strolling in Bishan Park and you suddenly hear God’s footsteps?! :O:O Okay I better go find out more about this and if God was really literally WALKING around in the garden. PHWOAR. If He really did, then I think it really shows how close God was to Adam and Eve, and the close relationship He desired with man.
IT GETS BETTER.
After Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit (no where in the bible said it was an apple lor i feel so cheated), GUESS WHAT HAPPENED?
1) they disobeyed God right?
2) they tried to avoid God right?
3) they sinned right?
4) they incurred the wrath of God and GUESS WHAT HAPPENED?
” The Lord made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.” Genesis 3:21
All I can say is………. Greater love has no one than this.
I mean sure, God punshied Adam and Eve. They now have to suffer and labour, but He did not abandon them. He still provided and cared and loved them.
Anyway, I remember asking WY before how come people in the past got to live soooooo long. I mean look at this: “After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth.” LOL??? Any idea how ridiculous that sounds in the modern context? hahahahhaha. Okay back to the point. Are our days now shorter because of increasing sin?
Chapter 6 says “Then the Lord said, ‘My Spirit will not contend with man forever for he is mortal; his days will be a hundred and twenty years.’” Is that why???
Someone answer me please.

“read the bible pray everyday”
Guess the simple sunday school song we used to sing everyday holds more truth than ever.
Sooo, I really have been resolving to read the bible more. And to really understand what I’m reading. Decided to start from Genesis all over again yesterday, and it never fails to amaze me when I read about how God created the earth!
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name. You are amazing, God.
And it led me to ponder about a few things I never really thought about before. Why did God have to create Adam out of dust when He could just create everything else simply by proclaiming it? Why go through the trouble? And why did He have to create Eve out of a part of Adam? Why not just use the same dust?
I guess when we set out hearts to commitment, God takes our walk with Him to a whole new dimension. I just pray that this will not just be a spark of passion at the start of the week, but that it will be something I will be able to carry with me into the new year, and fan into a burning flame.

ho hum
2nd week into internship! & I’m actually enjoying it. HAHA. There are moments when I feel like I wanna rip my hair out but so far so gooood. I’m really thankful for an understanding boss and to know a kind enough lawyer who has been willing to take me along with him to Court and whatnot. I may still have alot to learn but trying my hand at what’s gonna happen in real life kinda helps me look forward to school a little bit more, in hopes of being able to learn something that I can apply at work.
Exciting! 
& Thank You Lord for giving me this opportunity 
Bought 2 skirts from Zara, 1 skirt from Mango & 1 dress from Future State after work. ALL BLACK. Haha. I need a new colour palette.
Celebrated Yvonne’s 21st on Sunday! Sree’s is this weekend, and Yizhe’s is 2 weeks later. Wow.
This is such a random post.

And I’m still awake. And thinking about work. Lawsuits. & Skype.
Haha so random.
Wow so much running through my head. SO MANY FIRST TIMES. So many new experiences. But I’m not complaining. Haha.
So anyway, I actually went into a Judge’s chamber and Bar room for the first time yesterday. And drafted a statement of facts with a client for the first time today.
And………….
Ok I should just shut up and go to bed.

seriously
i appreciate constructive feedback. but dont freaking compare me with someone else and tell me what you think of me based on yaddayadda. cos we. are. all. different.
sometimes i think i’m going through all this shit as training for what’s in store in the battlefield of the legal world.
“No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.”
HELP.

15When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you truly love me more than these?”
“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”
16Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you truly love me?”
He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”
17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”
Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. 18 I tell you the truth, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.” 19Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God. Then he said to him, “Follow me!”
My dad just shared something about that verse with me. He related the questions Jesus asked Peter to our love for another person, or our success in life.
Do you really love that person? How much do you love him/her? How do you show your love for that person?
Do you really want to succeed? How much do you want it? What will you do to achieve it?
It prompted me to reflect on how to better show appreciation for the people around me, and to ask myself exactly how much I want to be a lawyer, and what I need to do now to achieve that goal. I guess in a way that helps me to stay focused, working with the end in mind!

Give thanks
OMGGGGGG we just drove past the new building @ Moulmein Rise and seriouslyyyyy my heart went boom boom pow (!!!)
IT WAS SO GORGEOUS.
OMGOSH.
BREATHTAKING.
Seriously the most beautiful building in the whole wide world.
I was just so overwhelmed by the sight of the building. Like I seriously just sat in the car with my mouth open going OMG every 5secs and just staring in awe. Amidst the cacophony of emotions palpitating through my veins at that moment, here are four.
AWE. The first emotion that hit me. ‘Cos it was really super nice!!! Omg looking at the pictures on fb and seeing the building before me in real life, so tangible… is SO DIFFERENT. I can’t imagine how the inside of the building is gonna look like. WOW.
PRIDE. How our teeny weeny itsy bitsy congregation of 200 or less can come together to build this building together is amazing!! Aww so proud of everyoneee
GRATITUDE. Thank God. ‘Cos there was no way we would have been able to raise the amounts we raised throughout these years without His providence.
RELIEF. I AM SO GLAD THE LEADERS HAD THE FAITH TO DECIDE TO START ON THIS PROJECT. Whoa. I am really x100000 glad they did.
Not that I didn’t like the old bungalow. I loved every bit of it sooo much I wanted to bring the bits of granite back home to put on display (no la i didn’t I’m just kidding) but looking at this new building is not just a representation of God’s providence, but also of the Church’s unity in embarking on a project together and seeing it to completion, and of a new hope that new believers will come to fill up the empty seats.
Lord, I’m amazed by You. Thank you Lord. Thank you.
