From that day till Valentine's Day and Beyond!

From that day till Valentine's Day and Beyond!

Well, i thank God for post Valentine's reflection.

1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; itis not arrogant 5or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

13So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

I thank God for yesterday's sharing by Ngiap Thai. It had no relation to our committee, and of all ppl im surprised he shared- suddenly taking out a bible at the end of the mtg. He reminded us of the love that we ought to have. In light of Valentine's day and even our very conscientious/workaholic committee(me included), he reminded us the thing that differentiate our committee from a worldly committee- simply for the love of others. The ppl we hope to bring to Christ, the ppl we work with, the love, the testimony, ought to be different. In the midst of Valentine where everyone's idea of love is that of a couple, we should be reminded of Gods. Him on us, and ours, to pass it on. Thank God for the refocusing of the mind of what does love mean. Not what we always can only think of, but that of Gods.

I have to admit, life ever since that fateful event has changed my life completely. And so many things in me have changed, in my mind at least, so many changes have been made. But i am thankful that im jus holding on to the faith, which has been hugely weak of late. At least it has not died. I just hope that life continues on to be more and more colourful rather than the black and white ive seen so often the past few months.

Love: I happen to talk abt this to lyd and rach abt a month plus ago. We were talking abt the right one existing out there, or God has a special one for us. Or is that true? Isnt the love r/s in the bible mostly married then you learn to love? Is love cultivated? Or is it just due to the thing we call predestination? I think its cultivated, but my feelings tell me otherwise. Just talk abt doing something ive stopped doing and the same feeling appears.

But maybe cause feelings are very much blind, but love, is supposedly logical/cultivated.

I wish close friendships need not be broken.
I wish i'll stop having emotionally intense dreams.
I wish church was like the past.
But moving on....

I thank God for new friends and most of all, bball. I'm truly loving it more and more each day.

BTW, I HAVE ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT TEAR IN MY RIGHT KNEE!! I DONT BELIEVE IT!!!
