Hello ppl!!

7/3

abt 3 weeks since i last blogged..well..been quite occupied with various stuff..firstly it was exams..and then preparation of my overseas trip..my schedule is packed for this one whole week!!i wonder whether i have time to pack my bag anot.. =S haha..

well..i will be leaving singapore for abt 3 weeks..leaving on 14/3 tuesday..back on 7/4 friday night..quite excited abt the trip..as well as abit of "bu she de" to leave my friends and family for such a long period of time..ok..it is the first time that im leaving home for so long..so ya..

it will be quite cold over there..so have to bring winter clothings..i tot just wear a jacket will do and can just start packing on this sunday..but then i dun think i can start that late!!will start packing soon..tml will be out with my mum for half a day to do some shopping for the trip as well as spend some time with her..i think my mum will miss me quite badly..LOL..cos i know she cried during work..which i dunno..until my aunt told me cos they work the same place..hey hey!!but im not a pampered girl k!!can take care of myself one lah..just wanna give her more reassurance..

well..during this whole period of support raising, i think i really learnt alot..faith will definitely be one factor..but the other factor that i want to emphasize more is really prayer..of cos prayer wun work without faith..

as i pray and fasted..i realised i can sense God's presence even stronger in my life..be it during worship, cell group or anything, you are just able to sense His presence..it does not mean you dun sense God's presence then God is not there..God's presence will always be there be it we sense it anot..last time, even though i know God is present in my life, i cant sense or feel His presence..i just felt that He is so distant..so far away..of cos we cannot depend on feelings when it comes to bible being our authority, not feelings..but in this case, it is different lah..you just know that something is wrong in your spiritual walk if you cant feel God's presence..there was a few times i experience God's presence so strongly in my house when i was just worshipping that i just ended up in tears and i cant stop weeping..time just flies when God's presence can be felt so strongly..that few times of experiences, i din even realise each time i just spend 3-4 hrs soaking in God's presence..kneeling down for that 3-4 hrs cos God's presence was so strong that i cant even stand up..those few times of experiences really really very unforgettable..

i recalled all of these experiences..and do a comparison..i really have to confess that i allowed other things in my life that indirectly/directly affected my spiritual life..i realise they are all very legitimate stuff..things like ministry, meetings, etc..spiritual activities..then it is really true that it does not mean your walk with God is good even though you mayb involve in alot of spiritual activities..many spiritual activities is not equals to close walk with God..but it does not mean spiritual activities are not gd..in fact, they are essential for our growthand are suppose to help us to grow closer to God..but if it overtakes the priority of our devotional time with God..then something is not right..

the above may just seem so basic stuff..but isn't it true that it is the basics that we often neglect?

Prayer is not so much an act as it is an attitude - an attitude of dependency, dependency upon God.
