Obersever

Haiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm back lho! Woohoo!

I just feel like sharing something from my observation. I guess I was never an observer, I was always oblivious to wat's goin' on around me and I was always happy, careless. Basically, my motto all this time had been "Ignorance is bliss!". Sometimes, it's easy to be ignorant to people's needs coz that what comes naturally for me. But I know HE's pushing me to be just the opposite of that, go against my 'normal' flow and start being observant and learn to be 'aware' of my surroundings.

Is it difficult? Oh for sure. I had been igonarant all this time and now YOU want me to be 'aware'? The first step I had to take was the WILLINGNESS step. Still not easy, but in the end I just said "YES". Willingness doesn't just stop there, it requires ACTION to back it up. I asked HIM, "what kind of action?". Just start by "observing" HE said.

It's funny what I have found out about myself and about others in a way I would never have done if I wasn't willing in the first place.

One thing I got from this experience is how people react and deal with their situations. It's funny how we sometimes judge things too quickly and categorise them as 'this is bad' or 'this is sooo good' but we never know what happens later. Only when we have finished the race and looked back then we will know whether it's good or bad.

I can share from my recent experience eating mie rica. It was so yummy for sure, I said to myself "this is sooooo goood" but didn't realise what was coming 24 hrs later.... and thennnnnn it happened the most excruciating pain i'd ever felt *no offence, Cha...enak bgt mie ricanya but my tummy couldnt handle it =(. Lesson to be learnt here is that not to judge that sumting 'yummy' will stay 'yummy' on the inside. Sometimes it's just a cover up but the end of it is ugly.

I was reading from Ecclesiastes and it says "it's more important to have a good ending than a good beginning". And if I may add, sometimes it's easier for us to be so excited it things start well and be complacent on how things are, but what is MORE IMPORTANT is to aim for a good ending..and not just good..but GREAT ENDING to what we started. It's funny how I've observed people who started things well but they're now slowly drifting away and can't finish what they started. Long story short, what I got the most is not to get too excited if things start well but GET REALLY REALLY EXCITED when THINGS FINISH WELL!! We don't wanna have a 'sour lolly' experience, sweet at the beginning, but really really sour at the end.

It's 4 months left till end of this year...whatever we've started this year .. regardless whether it's good or bad, ONE thing we need to focus on is to aim for a GREAT ENDING.

My prayer is for blind eyes to see what HE sees, deaf ears be opened, hardened hearts be softened, filled with love and compassion that never runs out and always overflowing.

On this occassion, I would like to say:

Thank YOU for: YOUR Divine Inspiration, Revelation, Creativity, Guidance, Authority, Power, Wisdom, Presence, Unfailing Love, Kindness, True Friendship, Strength, Joy, Trust, Discipline, Answer, Response, Peace, Compassion, Sacrifice, Pain, Holy Spirit, Daily Bread, Provision, Encouragement, Endurance, Healing, Blessings, Comfort, WORD, new Grace every morning, Annointing, Intervention, Miracles, ..... ...... *I'm lost for words...*

Thank you to all the leaders for ur authority, vision, trust, faith in me. Sometimes I don't even have the same faith in myself as u do. Thanks for all your support, solutions, answers, help, always faithful prayers for me, shaping me, giving me the opportunities to develop existing & discover new talents, ur wisdom, guidance, etc etc so much more...I pray that I can continue what you started in me and can lead the way you do..or even greater...

Thank you to all my friends that YOU have given me the opportunity to meet and know closer. It's been such a privilege and pleasure to meet such wonderful and colourful people and adds flavour to my life. Sometimes I don't realise this until you're not around me anymore. Thank you for your: friendship, support for me, trust in me, encouragements, presence, shoulders to cry on, ears that are always ready to listen and many more. I can't say thank you enuf. You're all beautiful people and you have made me who I am today.

Thank you to Dakus for: ur care, love, patience, putting up with me when I'm impossible to put up with, laughing at my stupid jayusm/actions/crazy things, eating my food even tho' it's hard to swallow sometimes, wiping my tears away *literally*, be a shoulder for me to cry on, friendship, input, our arguments, sad/happy/difficult moments, a place where i can 'unload' stuff, ready to listen, for ur jayusm, for being who you are. I cherish every moment and look forward to having more opportunities for us both to 'grow' as an individual so we can be stronger together. I've seen HIS works so great in your life, I'm proud of you & what u have achieved. You've come so far. Thank you for letting me get toknow ur family, so many cousins/elders to remember but I can't help it that I start to love them just by listening to the way you talk about them. I admire that so much from you. Keep pursuing HIS will, seek His vision. I'll continue in private for more details...*not for publication* hahaha.

That's all from me...
