Play the right game

Games are good, it can be a way to distress ourself and can be a good way to bond people together. But they can be very damaging to us too if we are not careful.

I pick up Zombie Farm and Office Heros, 2 iPhone apps, last week and I can say I quite enjoyed them. But the more I play, I realize that they are occupying too much of my time. Every hour or so I will check for updates and not wanting to miss a task or harvest.

To some it may be okay, but I felt whatever the case is we are actually spending our time, effort and focus on sometime that demands our attention that does not benefit myself in the long run.

I have deleted those games but I am not giving up on games. Just be sure that we are in control rather than being control by the games.

How do you know that the game is bad for you? It is bad when you choose it over other good things like spending time with your loved ones, doing a loving act for others and most importantly spending those time with God.

So beware of what games you play next because God give us only 24hrs a day so we ought to use it wisely. There is a purpose for us and to focus on games at the expense of others is not one of it.

Praise the Lord for all the things He had given us.

Spent your time wisely

Earlier mentioned that we had plans for our future ministry but as the day goes by, it seems more and more difficult. More importantly, we pray that we can spend our time wisely.

SYOG 2010

I dun know about you but I wasn't looking forward to the SYOG before it started, maybe because I am being deployed.

I am reminded to be more prayerful over the weekend and to be frank my negativeness is something I am not proud of after listening to Chris' sermon.

I thank God I am able to face it now with a more cheerful heart, even when it meant long hours on the road. Thank God that I am able to pray to Him all the time.

Tomorrow I will be bring Amos together with my mother to watch the hockey matches, Evelyn will join us after school. Since this is the 1st YOG, I think it will be nice for Amos to have a feel on such an event. Already looking forward to see his expression tomorrow.

As for Zoe, still thinking if I should bring her but surely will bring her along for the swimming leg on Wednesday morning, which Evelyn will be on duty to bring her students to attend too.

Thank God for the opportunity to do something that does happen very often together as a family. But I am just so grateful to the Lord for letting us spend time together. Praise the Lord!

Mr and Mrs Tan

Really had a great time helping out Gab & April's wedding over the weekend. Thank God for their union and pray that they will have a great honeymoon. Hope to see them back soon.

It's been close a year since I help out in a wedding. Think I may not be able to help out much in any future wedding as Evelyn is finding it more and more difficult to handle the kids.

The last of Gab Tan and April Chin

Today marks their last day as individuals and what awaits them are a life long of love, support and service for each other under the provision of our Lord.

I am honestly excited as apart from sister's wedding, this one of our so call "晚被的婚礼". Looking back my past ten years in ARPC, it sure brings back fond memories of the time everyone had together with Army Boy Gab and School Girl April.

Who can forget the Gab whose looks now the same as many years back, which is still an auntie favourite. And how about April, who can forget her bright smile in those glasses. Also the wonderful time in PUNJ and BGB serving together.

Tomorrow is the start of their journey as one and I pray that above all they will trust in the Lord daily. Praise the Lord their union.

And for one last time, good morning and farewell to 2 wonderful individuals and we now eagerly awaits the arrival Mr & Mrs Tan. May the Lord bless the both of you in the years ahead and that you will serve God faithfully all the days of your life together.

Amos can speak

Finally after 2 years & 5 months. Not that he can't, just that when he call daddy not sure if he is really calling me or just using it for everything.

Last Saturday before going for NDP duty, I finally heard him call "Mummy" and "妹妹" when I point him to them. And he is also fall asleep at night when I tell him to, which wasn't the case before.

Thank God for helping Amos grow. Now we're entering the next phase for Amos. Pray that we will be good parents that teach him the way of the Lord faithfully.
