Came across this story while I was browsing the net: Don't Worry -- Author Unknown Years ago, I was enthralled as I listened to a pastor who for several years had faithfully served the church. His executive responsibilities had taken him all over this country. As he concluded his message, he told of one of the most frightening, yet thought-provoking, experiences of his life. He had been on a long flight from one place to another. The first warning of the approaching problems came when the sign on the airplane flashed on: Fasten your seat belts. Then, after a while, a calm voice said, "We shall not be serving the beverages at this time as we are expecting a little turbulence. Please be sure your seat belt is fastened." As he looked around the aircraft, it became obvious that many of the passengers were becoming apprehensive. Later, the voice of the announcer said, "We are so sorry that we are unable to serve the meal at this time. The turbulence is still ahead of us." Then the storm broke. The ominous cracks of thunder could be heard even above the roar of the engines. Lightening lit up the darkening skies, and within moments that great plane was like a cork tossed around on a celestial ocean. One moment the airplane was lifted on terrific currents of air; the next, it dropped as if it were about to crash. The pastor confessed that he shared the discomfort and fear of those around him. He said, "As I looked around the plane, I could see that nearly all the passengers were upset and alarmed. Some were praying. The future seemed ominous and many were wondering if they would make it through the storm. Then, I suddenly saw a little girl. Apparently the storm meant nothing to her. She had tucked her feet beneath her as she sat on her seat; she was reading a book and every thing within her small world was calm and orderly. Sometimes she closed her eyes, then she would read again; then she would straighten her legs, but worry and fear were not in her world. When the plane was being buffeted by the terrible storm when it lurched this way and that, as it rose and fell with frightening severity,when all the adults were scared half to death, that marvelous child was completely composed and unafraid." The minister could hardly believe his eyes. It was not surprising therefore, that when the plane finally reached its destination and all the passengers were hurrying to disembark,our pastor lingered to speak to the girl whom he had watched for such a long time. Having commented about the storm and behavior of the plane, he asked why she had not been afraid. The child replied, "'Cause my Daddy's the pilot, and he's taking me home." There are many kinds of storms that buffet us: • Physical, • Mental, • Financial, • Domestic, and... Many other storms can easily and quickly darken our skies and throw our plane into apparently uncontrollable movement. We have all known such times, and let us be honest and confess, it is much easier to be at rest when our feet are on the ground than when we are being tossed about a darkened sky. Let us remember... Our Father is the Pilot. He is in control and taking us home... so Don't Worry.
Back to update again. I've informed my boss about me quitting the job, will work till end of the month. After which I will be officially classified as 'unemployed'. Went also to apply for conversion of my course from full time to part time studies instead. However, its still on pending cos I apply only after the deadline so its subject to approval.Please pray for me for this cos quite uncertain right now. Nowis in the midst of hunting jobs, will start to send out resume throughout the week, hopefully by God grace will be able to secure a job that will allow me to work, study and most importantly won't affect my serving in the ministries. Yesterday after service went out with nick and wei beng to have lunch and catch a movie at AMK Hub. After that went to meet Ken they all at The AMK Garden Macdonald. Have a good chat there, and relfected upon it. My life for the past 1, 2 months have not been in line with God, sort of loses foucs along the way. Now trying to get back on track and in line with God. I need to be more responsible in my words and actions. Please continue to pray for me that my walk with God will be close and I will really live up my life for His Glory. Dragon Boat event is coming up on 5th July, So far response is quite good. Wanna thank everyone for signing up for the event. Do continue to keep the event in your prayer.

Yesterday went down to Samsung to collect my phone.Have send it in for servicing for like more than 2 weeks but didn't receive any updates from the staff. Thus decide to go down and find out. It turns out that my phone is ready for collection. Finally got back my phone after so long. Before going down to collect my hone, took a trip down to school to settle my course conversion. Turns out that i need to write an email to inform the course coordinator, then wait for them to bill me then I can go nd make the payment. Troublesome right, having to go through all this procedures whereby i'm there already, wanting to make the payment. In the end, wrote an email to the coordinator, now still waiting for the reply. After that went down to town to meet nick for late lunch. Chit chat a bit, walk around doing window shopping and off we go, back to home. Now just hope that I can settle my studies fast, and secure a job too.

Exam period is over, went back to Daiso to work again. Quite tiring and sian I would say, may be is because have been resting for two weeks that why began to be a bit lazy. Anyway, will be quitting the job by the end of this month. Now in the midst of job hunting. Hopefully will be able to secure a job and start work by beginning July. During the break after exam, spend most of the time with my family, going out together for meal and movie. Pretty enjoyable I would say :) Nothing much to update about. Will stop here for now. |
