I'm so happy today coz' I got to know that my U classmates got married today. We have the same name - Michele.
Yup, she left for NY after U graduation for her medi study and I lost contact w/ her somehow (actually being too lazy) but I still recall the days we went to class and had dinner w/ Alean and Jacqueline.
All the best my dear!

Devotion Sharing - 2 Corinthians 5:7-10
"We live by faith, not by sight. We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home w/ the Lord. So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad."
A big warning to me! I woke up this morning, pretty tired and still feeling sick (hv been sick for the past few days!) Worrying about work and study, my head is filled up w/ the earthly tasks, not mentioned about "how to please Him"... (my new colleagues work so hard that they need to take taxi home for a few nights, you can imagine how busy and pressure we are.)
Recently I have been thinking of how my life to honour God, praise?
Again, it's the priority of my life. Gotta reset things all over again for there's one day I hv to stand in front of the Thrown and Jesus will count my fruit of Spirit - hm..no love, no patience, not much joy (I always forgot that Lord is w/ us and why still not feeling happy?), no peace, no ???..OMG! "big wok".
If I have real faith (i.e not judge things by our logical common sense / sight), there no more need to think too much about the earthly problems/ difficutlies/ worries...
Cheers

Sept 10 - Inside Out
Our cell started to use this book for our guided group sharing session bi-weekly. Just read a few pages, we've gone thru' a few interesting topics:-
1. Eager for change / transform / following Christ's standard: seems like we all want to change but our body is weak. Dun give up pal! Our Heavenly Father has grace upon us.
2. Our purpose of life - my first questions when I was in form one: If my life is just like everyone else: born, grow up, work hard at school, work extra hard at work, marriage/family, worry about your children, sick, getting old and then die. What's the point to making an effort? Why do I need to follow this routine? Will I feel happy on this life path? Is there sth else which is more worthwhile for me to pursue?
3. 10 min true happiness? I'd like to use the word JOY instead of happiness since JOY is sth come from the heart but happiness is sth dependent on environment/things. When we grow up, we begin to look at how much achievement we get, value from the world such as fame, authority, house, car, degree/ master title..etc are the things we being measured as "successful". However, have ppl ever thought that in order to chase these things, one gotta sacrifice a lot? Does it really worthwhile to go for it? Are these things even more important than our own health, our relationship w/ the beloved ones and the love from our Heavenly Father (and Eternal Life)? I felt even more lonely, empty and aimless eveytime i finished one exam. Felt depressed after a karaoke night. I'm not saying that I did not enjoy the time / the satisfication after some advancement, just that these kinds of happiness cannot really fill up the "hole" deep down in my heart.... which is meant to be filled by Jesus.
Jesus said," I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the full."
A lot of interesting discussions: what quality does a mature Christian acquire?

Sept 7-8 Company Team Building - Zhongshan Shangrila
http://www.shangri-la.com/en/property/zhongshan/shangrila
Out of my expectation, the hotel is very clean, spacious and nice. There is a chinese garden (those with bridge and small lake - nice garden view from my room) No wonder the group is highly ranked. Daily rate is RMB 800, which is reasonable.
Just that there's nth specail in ZhongShan - except we tried a delicious meal at a famous reataurant.
