Today is the last day & I must record down before closing this chapter in my life.
The following are what I have gathered this year…
1) People can turn courageous when being thrown into a corner of not knowing what to do when faced with a serious situation
2) People are still and really and will never be perfect – you do see the ugly Singaporeans, you do cross paths with people who will disappoint you, you do lose your faith in people sometimes.
3) People can be sweet – they do nice little things for you, they sometimes make your day just be their simple acts of kindness, love and encouragement
4) People learn from one another irregardless of age or seniority
5) I gotten married this year
6) This is the 10th year of friendship with buddy – the one who brought me to church and helped open up a life of destiny & future
7) This is my 3rd year in ministry as a leader
8 ) Stretching – in every sense of my being (work, family, marriage, finances, emotions, etc, etc, etc)
9) I meet some new people this year
10) I learnt a little bit more about parenting, thanks to my members
11) I tried to be creative
12) I am still as cool as a cucumber when I faced the enormous pile and volume at work. I still drop and go when I need to, well, work can never be finished.
13) I still stand by the principle that sales and credit don’t stand on the same side.
14) I am thankful for all the love, grace, that I have received from everyone
15) I am thankful that people & God still trust me. They still believe in me when I have doubts in myself.
16) I am thankful to all my friends who love and accept me the way I am.
17) I enjoyed every moment that I spent with my friends
18) I love Dear Dear just the way he is and appreciates every single thing that he does.
19) I am thankful that he is always by my side and my cheerleader when I am down
20) I know Dear Dear tries his very best to take care of me
21) Though I hope that the ministry produce much more fruits and growth, it has not turned out that way. So, I need to work harder next year.
There’s still a lot of other things about 2008…It’s been a tough and challenging year for me. Times of ups and downs. There were times of wanting to give up. But the bible says “Let’s not grow weary while doing good…”
My prayers for 2009 is:
- Closer and more intimate walk with Jesus
- Stronger prayer life
- Able to love Jesus and people more and more
- Maybe have a little one
- Stronger marriage
- A better prospects and better paying job
- Financial breakthroughs & blessings for myself & dear dear
- Growth in ministry, fruits that will remain, willing to be discipled and planted in the hse of God
- Family salvation
and there’s a whole lot more… We will always have prayer needs and request. Like the Koreans said, we pray because we all have needs in our life.
So, Bye Bye 2008 and Hello 2009.
May 2009 be a year of growth, blessings, prosperity, promotions and victories for the glory of God.
