Brought nicholas to Hope church ytd,it's his first time visiting. anyway nicholas is already a christ believer but he mentioned that he's feeling dry and is thinking of leaving his current church. i know my words isn't enough to convince him that God is real and he should stay on and not backslide, so yeah, why not let God do the job to convict him? and God did. nicholas mentioned that the sermon spoke to him. ((: *DELIGHTSAnd during the service, i dunno why, but i got this prompting to pray for nicholas. yeah, so at the end of the service,Juli and i prayed for nicholas . we prayed that he'll renewed his heart and be on track with God once again. cool night. *DOUBLE DELIGHTS

i stayed over at Juli's house on friday night, and went for WFL class the next day. we catch "Just my luck" @ shaw plaza,1145pm.lol.it's free! because Juli's dad got free coupons to movies.so blessed huh. ( :
after the movie,we went to eat macdonalds.sleepy at that time.yawwn! we head home after that. we did our QT and after that lights off, sleeping time! it's a pity that we didnt enage in a spiritual talk like maybe what we learn in our QT etc, maybe we're both too tired.but nevertheless, i discover more about Juli. she's very close to her sisters,they're like friends.HAH!yeah, and its not surprising that i can't get into sleep.as expected, it takes me quite awhile to fall asleep while Juli is already in her lala land.roaar! :DD
so yeah, i went to church with a heavy eyelid, nearly doze off during WFL and sermon =/ but ate some sweets to keep me awake, thank God it works.
moral of the story : sleep well on friday :D

i wonder if it's a human nature to compare. being comparative is not really a bad thing. for example in studies, people tend to compare with their friends, and this act as a motiavtion pushing yourself to study even harder. see, this is not really a bad thing. however being over-comparative is bad. you tend to develop this ungrateful heart towards God whom has faithfully watching over you for so many years. yeah, i guess i fall under this categary.
I thought of my nanny today. she's no longer here anymore, but i know i'll remember her for my lifetime. i thank God for putting special people like her in my life, really. and it kind of struck me not to compare my family with others anymore. God's been good all the time. He placed people whom loves me loads and take good care of me since young. Recalling the past has make me realised how blessed i am, yeah, even at that time when i'm not a follower of Christ. see, God loves us, His people. (:
i know even when i'm 18,28,38...............or even 88, God'll loves me the same, nothing less or more! praise God for that !
God,may you teach me to appreciate and not to
