It's all for you
So tired...from practice. It was great fun! And the thought of serving the Lord excites me....loving it =).

Run by Hillsong

You were God from the outset
Powerful and creative
You who saw us here before you called
All the stars and the earth to existence

You are God you are Holy
History is you story
You, who was and is
And who forever will be
God we live for your Glory

So we will run
All together our hearts aflame
With a fire that can't be tamed
Our God all Glory to your name
Jesus

You are God you are freedom
You're alive now within us
You who saw us here before
You conquered the grave
And delivered on the promise

We will run
Our surrender to bring you fame
Our desire that you be praised
Our God all Glory to your name
Jesus

In the darkness, God's light shines
Today's service was awesome. It was very uplifting (though all of the services are), especially amongst the gloom that surrounds us. Every day for the past few weeks, everything i read in the papers is about the gloom and doom. Every person i talk to tells me "times are bad" or "you should worry about our economy". I don't deny that there is darkness in this world right now...and that times are bad for many...but that's not for us. It never was meant for us. Amidst all those that's happening around us, we are placed in the cleft of the rock Jesus Christ, sheltered, shielded from all the turmoil, the mess, the destruction. Oh Lord, blessed is the man who's in Christ. As the world gets darker, the church shines ever brighter...for His glory...so supernaturally beautiful.

As you walk with Him, his heart is revealed...ever so pure and wonderful...

Off to another topic. While on my way to church today, i took a cab. The taxi uncle turned left towards PIE, which wasn't the usual way i get to church. And so i asked, "uncle, how are you going to Suntec?". Uncle replied, "By CTE or Nicoll Highway". From my knowledge, CTE doesn't lead to Suntec, it could be either ECP or Nicoll but not CTE. And i told him that. So he said we'll go by Nicoll then. I was rushing for time, the impatient side of me fuming at the lost of time and the mistake in directions. The taxi driver made a huge round back to my home, before heading towards Nicoll Highway. Then, i was so ready to take it up with him, to demand that he charge less for my cab fare due to the detour. But i hated the fuming me....and hence i complained to the Lord and keep asking Him whyyy is this happening. He just told me not to worry, and he'll take care of it. FRom then on, the journey was smooth, no red lights, no traffic jams, smooth all the way to church. My usual cab fare to church would cost 7 bucks...but this time round the meter showed 9 bucks. By the time i reached, i was at rest, peaceful, leaving everything up to the Lord. And at this point, the taxi driver turned to me and asked, "how much do you usually pay for your trip here?". I said, "7 dollars". And he replied, "then just pay me 7 dollars will do." My goodness, it was amazing. Without me even trying to fight, the Lord delivered me! Praise God!

The incident left me very touched. Nothing is too small for God...he just wanna be with you, by your side, every time. Oh Lord...you are so good.

Friday's care group session was awesome too....shines light into the situation at work. Praise God.

Yesterday's gathering at my colleague's house was great too. Learnt many things i never knew about them and myself...and how they saw me. Interesting...that through their words, His glory is shown...goodness.

So so in awe of Father God...He never fails to amaze me...time and time again. So many things to share this week about His goodness and His faithfulness....like a spring that blossoms into a glorified flower....

Ciao for now....will be back to share more :)

Testing My Snowflake Cookies
Time for my Christmas Decorated Cookies practice session 1! Haha...sounds like F1. Made a trip to Phoon Huat yesterday and it almost went outta control. They had so many new stuffs and i could have spent the entire there...as well as my entire wallet >.<.

Well! I couldn't bring myself to spend 90 bucks on the snowman cutters from Shermay's...and hence i got a snowflake cutter at almost 2 bucks, a real bargain i would say! Armed with my new toys, i went on to try out the recipes from the class.

Here's my first batch of snowflakes. Looks pretty neat to me.

Close-up of the just-out-of-oven snowflakes.

MY very first frosted cookie! Next to Chef Jocelyn's one and it pales in comparison...haha. It shall remain my motivational target!

The second design...seems to be looking better!

My precious snowflake packed neatly into a gift box...


There...my first effort at making frosted and shaped cookies. More will be coming up soon...heh.

Holiday Cookies Class at Shermays
Hi to all those who are stopping by =).

Was intending to have a quiet saturday with myself but this turned out to be a hectic weekend packed with activities. Can't even squeeze in a short run at the park!

I finally attended one of the baking classes at Shermay's Cooking School today! Weeeee! It was really cool and fun! It was conducted by chef Jocelyn Shu, whose blog can be accessed via the link below:
http://brandoesq.blogspot.com/2008/09/decorated-christmas-cookies-2008.html

This class was for Christmas decorated cookies, which i've been meaning to try out since last year but didn't manage to. The class was great! She was really nice, gave detailed instructions and was very patient when it comes to Q&A. Those lovely cookies she churned out were soooo beautiful it's hard to put your teeth through them! Now i can't wait to make some of it on my own...will have to try it out a couple of times first! Guinea pigs, any volunteers? >.<

Here are some photos taken at the class (ps: pardon the poor quality photos cos they were taken with a camera phone while jostling among the crowd and with overcast shadows ):





These are soooo amazingly gorgeous. Can't wait to start baking!

By the way, i also discovered that Shermay stocks many good ingredients! Those fruit-flavoured extracts, pretty cardboard boxes and cookie cutters will make me go back for more. Sadly, it's a tad far for me. But i'll definitely be back!

Alright, i'm done for the night. Signing off now...ciaoz!

Emptiness filled with His love
Well, when i first saw it, it hurt...

And now, it hurts no more...

Carrying the whatever attitude and living for His glory.

Always greatly blessed, highly favoured and deeply loved =)



What About Now by Daughtry

Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading,
From all the things that we are
But are not saying.
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?

Change the colors of the sky.
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you.
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night,
Love will find you.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?

The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day.
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace.
Shadows fade into the light.
I am by your side,
Where love will find you.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love, it never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late,
What about now?

Now that we're here,
Now that we've come this far,
Just hold on.
There is nothing to fear,
For I am right beside you.
For all my life,
I am yours.
