"I want to learn piano"

"LOL, I don't think you're serious right?"

"She must be kidding, I doubt she can finish till Grade 8"

"You really want to learn?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I will buy a second hand piano for you."

That was when I was nine years old. I told my family that I wanted to take up piano lessons, for reasons that I do not know. My mom used her pension to buy me a second hand piano and from then on, I have been taking piano lessons till year 2006 or 2007.

Although I did not manage to pass my Grade 8 examinations, but I did learn until Grade 8. I believe it is by God's grace that I am able to take up piano lessons, given the fact the I come from an average-income family. I also believe that God has His own reasons for giving me this opportunity.

I started to serve as a pianist in my former church's youth fellowship when I was 16 [if I remember correctly]. Although it was just for a short period, I did enjoy the process. Recently, I was given the opportunity to serve Him again as a pianist. I really appreciate the opportunity given and am very happy that I am able to serve Him with the blessing that He had provided me some years ago.

God's grace is always sufficient for us. I really thank God for whatever that He had given me; without Him, I am nothing...

FGA Youth Camp 2009

Hmm, it was held from the 4th day till the 6th day of June 2009. Actually I intended to post this earlier but just did not manage to find the time. All of sudden, I feel like posting it today.

Again, I contemplated whether to attend this camp. This time, the reasoning was because I did not want to hold any responsibilities; it was predictable that I would be chosen as a 'leader', but in the end, I just joined the camp.

Hmm, I would say I did enjoy the camp. I was longing to experience God and that was my only intention of joining. True to my prediction, I was chosen as one of the leaders. Although reluctant, I chose to be submissive to God's planning. Hmm, after so many years getting involved in youth activities, it was quite awkward to join the youths once again; this time, I felt that I was just carrying out the necessary duties.

Praise the Lord that I was able to enjoy His presence and comfort during the camp. God is LOVE! Below are some photos for sharing :)

My Blog

I was reading my friend's blog last week and when I saw her entry, it reminded me that I was facing with the same situation; she mentioned in her blog that most of us start a blog with a theme but along the way, the entries just lost its purpose [something along these lines]...

Wonderland! I remember in my introduction I was saying that I want to share my views, experiences etc in this blog. However, along the way, I think I have lost my own direction. From time to time, I will read the entries that I have posted on Friendster and I think I prefer my entries there, at least I was able to attract some readers with my stories and/or experiences...

I look back at this blog, it seems that my entries are so messy, there is no theme, everything is just everywhere. Oh, I really do not like this idea at all! When I read it, I do not feel like continuing reading...

Recently, I find that things have been different. It seems that I am starting my journey to search for my direction, the direction that God has prepared for me. I hope this fire will continue to burn in the long run. I hope my entries will be 'alive' and do not sound as though there is no hope in life. I hope that I will be able to make a difference in my own life, so that I will have a breakthrough and share with everyone what He has done in my life.

God is indeed awesome! I am able to find peace and hope in Him. I hope that He will continue to use me to glorify Him because, without Him I am nothing.
