A Baptism

today, i didn't go to energizer life church. i went to a catholic church instead. anyway it does not matter which church you are going to, what matters most is whether you open your heart so that God can speak through you. as usual, God spoke. as this's my 1st time going to catholic church in tassie, so i dont know the tradition. honestly i get lost. but whilst praying and kneeling, i could feel God begins to fill my heart. it was so great and as i meant words that i heard and said, God is like going deeply into my heart. he is like digging my heart, trying to go deep and deep so that he can forever be there. thank you my dear Lord.

it's actually my housemate's, carolyn,baptism, Not mine. great that she could make the decision finally because last time she used to tell me that she's in doubt about things. she actually wanted to do it but there's something that she did not understand and she wanted an answer for it. well, there are many things that we dont understand and but i think when it comes to God, it is not all about understanding. it is all about having faith in Him. i know i know it is easy to say but not easy to practice. im having the same problems as well but i dont want to let these things to hold me back. the answers are all from God. ask him and he will reveal to you bit by bit. i was just reading the book of john 16, it talks about God revealing his own plans and truth to us through the Holy Spirit. it says in verse 12-16 'the holy spirit will guide you into all truth. he will not speak on its own, he only speaks what he hears and he will tell you what is yet to come. he will bring glory to me by taking what is mine and making it known to you'. that's really a great verse. so do not wait till you understand or perfect because you will never be perfect (unless and untill the day comes) and you'll miss lots of things. we undestand or not, prepare your heart, then it'll be revealed to you.

for carolyn, thanks my dear for your great company and honestly i have learn alot from you. there are hard times but thank goodness we could solve them with a cool mind. wish you with great journey in your life. may God make known of Himself to you each day of your life.

i almost cried when you left the house because im used to have you sleeping next to me. remember when you asked me to tell a bible story before we slept, it was really a great moment. not to forget about the company of prayers when things were tough (remember when i was so disturbed that night? and also the prayers before and during exams periods?). thanks mate. love to have you. will bring you in my heart always.

kids. so darn cute. i wanna have a baby. can i adopt one of you?

there's the light. the priest says 'may God keeps this light aflames in your heart so that your spirit will be burned for Him always.' beautiful, isnt it?

being blessed

she's completely wet. but that's alright

that's her families: the nanny, mom, priest (law professor in utas), carolyn and dady

Carolyn and I

we all met unexpectedly in church. stunning and pointing fingers at each other 'hey you are here? how come?' that kinda of thing. abel was so funny. he had no way to escape because the priest asked him to come. he stayed with Dr. Gail (Utas lecturer) and it was so happened they had a dinner with the priest. lol. anyway good to see him in church. and joy could not believe herself that abel and I were there. lol. in the end we had brunch at Mc Donald.

that's all of us
