Last day
Finally the day has come. I'm left with 6hrs 30mins with Mass Media. Mixed feelings, goodbyes are hard to say. Literally grew up (spiritually too) in Campus Crusade, from my 3yrs in Poly & 4 yrs in Mass Media...even some of my good friends are from SCCC and I am sure I will still be very involved in their events. I will always have the crusade blood in me!
I thank God for blessing me. I am a favored child. I wanted a NASB Bible and it was given. I wanted resources for youth & young adult ministry and it was given. My shifu reminded me of my "name" -BLESS. That's not my Christian name, just figurative. He reminded me: "much is given, much is expected" I am like a cup that always refreshes others. hmmm, Praise God, I'm so thankful for what God has done. This place has been a platform for me to grow and be moulded for the vast tasks ahead.

Today isn't the best day of the week. I feel so melancholy and this is accumulated over the days & weeks...my communication line with him slowing down. I literally count how many times I made the initiative to say hi. I'm not angry just feel neglected. It's getting bad. Hope that things will only get better.
But hey you know what...I had flowers to make my day sweet & bright. I had smiles to remind me that I'm loved and cared for. I had brownie to feed my hungry tummy. I had hugs to warm me when I'm feeling cold. And all these were from my colleagues...yeah... These colleagues seem to be closer to me than anyone else. oh boy, I'm so gonna miss them.

Changes
This is a new year with new beginnings and lots of changes!
1. Got myself a cherry red highlight! My Bro say I look Ah lian...Red HongBao in preparation for CNY. Haha... anyway this highlight is non-chemical! No harm trying
2. Leaving my current workplace for good. My last day on 31 Jan (am counting down) Anyone wanna buy materials from Mass Media? I'm left with only 2 weeks here. The decision didn't come easy. I've prayed for 6-7mths for God's direction and assurance. This is God led.
3. I've requested for part time work so as to give more time for studies. Praise God for His provision...I'll start work on 5 Feb with Touch Community Service as a Program Executive to conduct Character development programs in schools!! Though part time means pay cut but I'm so excited in this new adventure, looking forward to that!
4. New semester, new classmates... not sure who I will meet. Pray that I'll have good tutors (not those who simply read off the lecture notes!)
5. Ministry changes 1: I've seen how my girls have grown since I led them at Radi8 youth. Their sharing always encourages me! Though Jane's left for 6mths student exchange in States. My other 2 girls went back to their extension church to serve on Fridays. God is faithful! He added 2 new additions to my group (smilez)
6. Ministry changes 2: We're gonna have Young Adults' Ministry too. :) Co-leading with Max; I'm not sure what's in stored for us but I'm expecting great things. It has to be!
7. Ministry changes 3:... Led worship for 5pm service. Ah! I wasn't feeling nervous until the very moment I went on stage. It does feel 'different' standing there. Feels like I'm floating and the congregation seems so small. I just look up and praise Him (controlling my tears)...Wow! God is awesome.
God spoke to my heart few months back and I believe that this whole process of 'GETTING MY FEET WET' really prepared my heart for what God is revealing to me. Tho I negotiate with God for a longer period of R&R (thinking I've stretched myself in worship, cell grp, drama, comedy videos, and musical during good old HCC days) But apparently I can't run away from it. Now I'm all the more convicted that much is given, much is expected.
These changes can only make me shine brighter for Him.
