Hello everybody, how was your week?

My week was quite interesting :) had two boxes of big apple donuts on saturday with Robert and Amanda. Went to the spring, twice in one week, bought a few things among them was my very first Giordano t-shirt. I have three now but the previous two were gifts from friends.

Sam's gone to australia :( going to miss him.

Going back to miri tonight, thanks Oliver and Joshua for picking me up.

Ok i want to talk about something. In many ways i consider Kuching as a home away from home. I feel very relaxed here. Its like every chance i get i come back to this place and everytime its been different. The last time simon was here and we worked together, had devotions together and we helped plan for the camp among other things. Simon is another guy who's left for perth. I dunno why every one is going to perth these days but anyway, its always refreshing to meet almost everyone even for a short while, to see the changes, the ahem, couples :) err let me take that again.

Its always refreshing to be able to meet the people here. I like that i get the opportunity to serve at bethany, thank you pastor for giving me that opportunity. And i like that i get to go out with different groups of people, go for movies, laksa, coffeebean or just drive around looking for blank cds hehe. I like that bethany is still here and is growing. There are a lot of new faces, some people i don't really know well but its still the same bethany, i still can meet with God, i still can join in the worship and feel the presence of God. There is something about this church that makes me always want to come back. In many ways i think i come back to draw strength, to be encouraged, to be motivated, to believe more.

I like what shellyn shared on saturday night. It really ministered to me. She was sharing from Psalm 139, one of my favourite Psalms. I've tried to memorise it but still miss a few bits here and there but i was reminded that God indeed cares for us, and that everything we need for the journey he has called us to, for the work he has placed in our hands, everything we need to get the job done is inside of us, He put it there. And its for us to bring it out, to step out in faith, to... like pastor said put legs to our dreams and vision and stop day dreaming. It sounds so simple but it really encouraged me.

Many times fear and doubts cripple us and we begin to what if, and analyse, and all that but this is the God who parted the red sea man! What is difficult for him? I just hope i can continue to remember that when doubt comes and i worry, to be like David, say bless the Lord oh my soul and all that is within me, bless his holy name. To be able to look to the hills where my help comes from because its not about me, its all about Him. And if we are faithful, he is always faithful. Amen.

I'm going to miss you all in kuching :'( hope to be here again some time.
