Will you be able to do it again?

Have been reading the book of joshua, about how joshua manage to lead his people to the promised land that God promised to give to the people of Israel. One of the challenges Joshua faced was to actually overcome the crushing defeat at Ai. So why was it a crushing defeat, that's because Joshua had spied on Ai and the report says that 3000 warriors were enough to defeat the small army of Ai. In the end, it was the army of Ai that chased the Israelites away from the city of Ai.

Anyway the defeat was a major blow to Joshua who thought that God given Joshua the green light to purge the land of many sins. Then Joshua found out what actually gone wrong (to find out the reason please read Joshua chapter 6 verse 10). So after awhile God told him to go back to the battle field and claim the land that God will be giving to him. So Joshua with his warriors went back faithfully to the battle field and defeated Ai as God instructed.

So I'm wondering when facing a loss in competition, rejection from peers, BGR or even retrenchment from your job. Will we all be able to pick ourselves up easier without the help from God? It always hard to bounce back but it's even harder without a helping hand, a hand that's always so forgiving and faithful.

Well stand chart marathon is coming soon please pray for my safety as well as the other people whose participating in the marathon too.

Taking out the trash....

Another rotting session at home today, well can't stand the fact that am rotting my life away so i decided to throw all the unwanted books, notes and other ploytechnic or secondary crap that i piled up in the store. Hahahaha it took me a hour plus to sort out what to throw and what to keep..... in the end i threw everything away.

Didnt know that i had so much rubbish..... i always thought that i might need those trash one day, until i decided to threw everything away today. Dont you all have something that you treasure probably you wont throw away, something that cling onto you that it's so hard to get rid of? Or a bad habit that's simply so hard to change.

As the saying goes Rome is not built in a day, so a habit is hard to be dispose off in a day. Well pray about it to God maybe it will be answered. So after clearing the trash decided to go for a swim, too bad the sun was not out so did not get the tan i wanted. Anyway will be going for a swim tomorow to see if i can catch the sun. P.S interest people can join me for the swim..... if u know my number give me a call.

Tire....

It's the 1st day of my holiday and i'm like bored to death. I find it so dumb that i always complain about how stressful mugging can be, always hope that the holidays can come sooner but now i feel so bored.

Went for a morning jog to bedok reservoir, now my legs feel darn tire now. Didnt expect that early in the morning there would be people there, apparently bedok reservoir is a place where lots of people go jogging, canoeing and etc. While jogging round the reservoir, felt like giving up the run back to home until i saw this girl jog pass me. Hahahaha i think is my ego which led me to increase my speed so as not to let her overtake me(should be i overtake her back).

By the way standard charted singapore marathon is this Sunday 2nd of dec. I think am going to walk all the way, dont know if i could finish the race. Have not been training ever since my exams started 3 week ago hope that God's protection will be with me throughout the race.

Hi I'm Back

Hey it's been a long time I posted some crap in here. Well was busy with my exam campaign, but it's over now today was my last paper and am looking forward to the holidays.

Anyway i did a few stuff today went shopping for guitar picks, broke my pick recently (so sad that pick was the first pick i bought). Yup spent about $4 on 3 new picks and a pick holder and a treat from a friend so nice hahahaha.

Then I clean up my room, wow and it feels so good to clear all the notes and textbook that's like laying around the place. Even though I didn't do it as I expected it during some of the papers, but if I did it for Him, I think am satisfied. Well have to left the results in His hands liao cant do much already.

OK now for the important stuff....... plan what to do for the holidays, have a few stuff that i want to try like canoeing, teach guitar, train up my body and relac one corner. Well anyway i felt quite sad for the death of the dragon boaters, it shows how fragile our lives can be. We could be smiling and laughing at one other the next day things can just change. Importantly treasure the person around you and may the peace of God be with you.

Some pictures taken when i was stress up while mugging for my papers......

Hope that God's word can pass my accounts paper
