if i were a painter…

I hate publicly writing about myself, what I’ve been doing, and what’s going on coz it seems weird… but I guess this blog deserves an update for the benefit of my friends out there, far and near in space, though distance don’t apply to some as you’re always in my heart (you gals know who you are!).

A month ago I went back to penang for Abraham’s wedding. It was the best wedding I’ve attended so far. The beach, the sunset, the buffet after with lamb on the spit, the music, aunties, uncles from good ol times, pretty ladies in sun dresses, children, family, laughter and joy (coz it’s a wedding and people are always - usually happy at weddings). Go see the pictures on my facebook. There’s a video on youtube as well (if you’re jobless). Type in Seet Yuan and Abraham’s wedding. Good times…

And of course, did the usual things PEnang is best for - shop, eat, swam in the sea, playing with the doggies. THere’s no place like home.

This year has been so great so far. Blessing after blessing. I’ve never felt in need of anything. Was a bit short of cash once, and when I checked my bank, JPA put in £400 - i’m not sure why, maybe book money. WHen I needed to find a house to rent (and it was very late in the year to find a house! coz all the good ones are usually taken up), God provided one within 24 hours. Awesome house, cheap rent, great location. What more can i ask for? My Jesus is REAL. He listens to me. After all the good stuff that’s been happening, at the back of my mind I wondered when it’s gonna end and is there a catch anywhere? But good news is there isn’t. It’s so human to think that we must DO something to get good stuff, or we got good stuff coz we’ve been good, or something bad will happen to balance out the good stuff we’ve been having. RUBBISH.

All this blessings I’ve been experiencing is solely because I have a great God who LOVES me unconditionally and who promises me that I shall never ever lack anything good. Yeah.. so basically it’s not about me, but about Him.

Taste and see that the Lord is GOOD!

Disclaimer: this doesn’t mean that life for Christians is gonna be an easy ride. That’s fantasy. I live in the real world, with real hard stuff going on. But I know that in all things, I have joy and peace that does not depend on my circumstances coz my God is greater than all and I have faith that He works out everything for good in the end. Gotta always believe that the best is yet to come.

Signing off…
