#WOW# weekend of worship - 1 June

Work for money - will end up disappointed 

Find a purpose to work. 

Work for something you enjoyed and the money will come.
Many of us work for half of our lives to earn the money to fulfil material stuff and then spend the rest of our lives using the money we earn to save our health

Exercise can get you fit but health Is the grace of God. 

When you are stressed and under fire, the "scum" comes out in us.
God will help us carve and mold us into
His image.  

John 1

When you are weak, you give all your worries to God. He will be there for you when you fail. Put God first in your life. Walk In faith, God will supply and will not forsake you. 

Matthew 16 :17 & Mark 16

Peter is disciple of Jesus. Jesus compliment him but Peter rebuked him. God said : "listen to Jesus".  Jesus reassured the disciple and said do not be afraid. Peter had failed and denied Jesus but Jesus continue to lay hands on Peter and looked at Peter. When Jesus ask peter if he loves him and Peter said I felio you, but Jesus gave him to be the one to be the Shephard of his lamb

Jesus looked at us with eyes of doves (gentle and compassion) even when we fail. Ah ni meh shalem - Jesus took your place and paid for your sins

We see no one but Jesus only in our life.

Let us fixed our eyes on Jesus.

Miracles

Many nights we prayed 
With no proof anyone could hear 
In our hearts a hope for a song 
We barely understood 
Now we are not afraid 
Although we know there's much to fear 
We were moving mountains 
Long before we knew we could, whoa, yes 
There can be miracles 
When you believe 
Though hope is frail 
It's hard to kill 
Who knows what miracles 
You can achieve 
When you believe somehow you will 
You will when you believe 
[Mmmmmmmmmyeah] 
Mmmyeah 
In this time of fear 
When prayer so often proves in vain 
Hope seems like the summer bird 
Too swiftly flown away 
Yet now I'm standing here 
My hearts so full, I can't explain 
Seeking faith and speakin words 
I never thought I'd say 
There can be miracles 
When you believe (When you believe) 
Though hope is frail 
It's hard to kill (Mmm) 
Who knows what miracles 
You can achieve (You can achieve) 
When you believe somehow you will 
You will when you believe 
[Hey] 
[Ooh] 
They don't always happen when you ask 
And it's easy to give in to your fears 
But when you're blinded by your pain 
Can't see the way, get through the rain 
A small but still, resilient voice 
Says love is very near, oh [Oh] 
There can be miracles (Miracles) 
When you believe (Boy, when you believe, yeah) [Though hope is frail] 
Though hope is frail [Its hard] 
It's hard to kill (Hard to kill, oh, yeah) 
Who knows what miracles 
You can achieve (You can achieve, oh) 
When you believe somehow you will (Somehow, somehow, somehow) 
Somehow you will (I know, I know, know) 
You will when you believe [When you] 
(Ohoh) 
[You will when you] 
(You will when you believe) 
[Oohoohooh] 
[Oh... oh] 
[When you believe] 
[When you believe]

Personal effectiveness & emotional competence

Setting personal values, personal goals and define personal qualities.  

Attended a course recently to improve personal effectiveness, to set personal goals and clearly define your roles and responsilibities, be it at work or in life.

To be honest, I didn't really think of what's my personal goals or values are ...

No plan is the best plan - that's what I always think but somehow this course got me thinking : "What do I want to achieve in 10 years time?"

With no goals, I will never work towards any targets

Maybe the "no plan is the best plan" probably works only for certain situations such as traveling plans but not for all things in life ! 

This course got me down to self-reflect about my goals in life and the plans for my future. Not that I don't have plans before but I haven't get down to planning it or even thinking of it. I live on a day by day.

It got me thinking and I finally kinda of set my two goals in life (tentatively):

1. I want to be freed from all financial burden when I'm 50 years old (less than two decades). I want to be debt free !!! I'm now having a housing loan and in order to be debt free, I need to pay at least $50k annually ! This needs financial planning and a well paying job to sustain it.

2. I want to have a family of my own, with kids in the next 5 years ! Family and relationships meant the whole to me. Having a sense of belonging and being in love is a big part of my life. I'm someone who gives, loves and want to be loved in return... So Emotional ya, but its true for me.... I need to think of my retirement plans. 

How does my personal goals able to align with the organization goals ? This is something I really have to think ..values, time management, stress management ?

Here's some interesting stuff that our team came out with ...

Super me - Did 3 movements all in 1

It's Mother's Day last Sunday and I spontaneously decided to run a simple movement to thank and appreciate the mothers who had said to have the toughest job  !
 
In support of Project I Appreciate. Motivate and Family & Me (FAM.e), I approached people and friends that I came across to pen down their appreciation or messages for their mothers.

It was a fun and great event! Do check out more photos and LIKE our pages on the Facebook

#WOW# Weekend Of Worship AR Bernard

Everyone wants an easy way out but by spoon-feeding us will make us lazy and reliant on being fed. Do you want to be fed? Or should you want to learn to fish ?

So do not just feed us with fishes but teach us to fish 

God loves us hence He puts us through trials and challenges. What doesn't kill us make us stronger. 

We must go through the discovery of learning in order to make our life greater and more fulfilling 

3 things God wants from us.
3 things a woman looks for in a man
3 things a man struggle in life 

1. Decisiveness - ability to make choices quickly and confidently. 
(Substandard - it's a woman's prerogative to change their minds cos woman don't know what they want !! Hahaha) but yet woman knows what they don't want 

You need a set of values and guide principles to make your decisions in order to make them quickly and confidently 

2. Consistency - firmness of your character where Actions and values are in agreement. If the actions and values are not in alignment, it is in hypocracy. (Hypocrite). When you marry, you are not marrying his money, talents, skills or for his humor, you are marrying his character.

3. Proverbs 19:22
Strength - his strength is demonstrated in his gentleness. He must not be weak. Genesis 2:18 a profound opinion frOm God. It's not good for man to be alone. I will make him a helper fit for him. Means Man needs help. Woman is designed to help and support but it's always been misinterpreted as being to control Man. 

If a man is indecisive, inconsistent and weak, then a Woman will emerge to feel responsible and step in to take leadership.

A short getaway

Massages, hair spa, food and lots of laughter 

Great chilling out
