Woo! There's barely a week left in the year. 2008 is drawing to a close and 2009 is impending. I anticipate the year with mixed feelings, The anticipation of the new and unprecedented, In the unknown. At the same time a tingle in my spine with the knowing that in another 365 I would be a totally different person, different perceptions, different priorities.
I just came back from Beer & Margarita's at Chili's KLCC with some of my closest friends. Sadly one of them would be flying of to the States in January. While I'll miss him, "Hey, Life will continue" So I just wish him all the best. :)
It seems only proper that before the end of the year I re-evaluate my year as a mirror. Begin to give thanks for everything encountered, Set up new resolutions for the incoming year, and decide to keep them.
There is plenty to be grateful for at the end of the year. Where can I even begin? I guess the only place where I can start off at is the point of salvation withing my life. So to that I'm eternally grateful!
My entire schedule is going to whacked this last quarter of the year. Christmas + Justin's Wedding. Its going to be awesome. Cant wait!

It's been pretty long since I've last updated my blog. Too long perhaps, until maybe I've even kissed goodbye to eloquence of stringing words into structured sentences. Honestly, I've missed writing. I've wanted to just grab a pen some days and jot down my thoughts and feelings at particular moments of time. At times I did, yet at times I haven't. It goes with regard that non we're even published, But truth be told they we're not much of a worthy read to begin with.
It's been a long year, Ups and downs, emotional highs and lows. Truly a year that will be unforgettable in the lessons that it taught me. A near of meeting new friends, saying goodbye to old ones. Celebrating a joyous occasion with a loved one, but at the next instance to lose him. To come to grips with the expectancy and responsibility of adulthood while fully embracing God's call and destiny within my life. Yes 2008 will be an unforgettable year indeed. A year of truly moving out of my comfort zone while leaving my sentimentalism at the doorstep.
Two of the biggest steps of faith this year were, Stepping up into the position of a House Leader of a Discipleship Home, by starting a brand new house. This has proven not easy and a challenge, there have been hiccups along the way but I'm believing in God to establish it.
Secondly, would be me becoming a Cell Leader of F46. This is utterly mind blowing, I never would have envisioned me leading a cell group of 11 people. But it is so.
Both of these areas being called to lead in are utterly mind blowing, But there are a few verses that I'm holding on to sustain me through all of this. And I'm believing that everyone beneath me shall be blessed, both in my cell group and in the house that I'm leading. "At the end of Man's strength, There begins God's" and I'm also believing that "If He appoints he will anoint"
So 2009 is going to be an interesting year indeed. The greatest lesson that I have learnt in 2008 was that "I could strive to do the best in all that I do in the natural, But at the end of the day I failed to feel even a glimmer of satisfaction, As I realized without doing the Lord's work, all my work was in vain" and believe me that is depressing. This post is pretty long, But I don't even expect people to read it, But it feel's good to get it all off my chest! Ahhh.... The joys of writing!
