Nowadays:
1. Guys are neater and tidier than girls.
2. Guys eat more vegetable than girls.
3. Guys are more likely to bring pocket tissues.
4. Guys cook more often than girls.
Had this interesting conversation topic lately and I definitely had a few girls nodding their heads to the statements above :) Do you agree?
To the stake of my life, makan-kaki of my life,
supporter of my life, cook of my life (hehe),
supper-kaki of my life, travel mate of my life,
bubble tea-ohwemusthaveit-kaki of my life,
my one-and-only ever dancing partner of my life,
my hair stylist, my movie-buddy, my encourager, my listener, my best friend.
To the Love of my life. To my Everything.

…what you want in life?
Isn’t it true that sometimes we feel aimless because we do not know what we want to achieve in life? Some say, ‘live for the day’, but would you want to do so without having and end point to achieve in the future?
Bible says that without vision, people perish. (Proverbs 29:18, KJV)
So start asking God what He wants to do through and in your life. Ask for a vision. And while waiting for God to do so, list down some practical things that you want to achieve out of your life (write them down so that you are constantly reminded of them)! However always remember to ernestly seek for His ultimate plan in your life. It is one that is out of your imagination, one that will prosper you, one that will give you hope and future! (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV)
As for me, my vision is to build a hospital one day. One that will touch generations and nations. One that shouts how much God loves His people :)
And things that I would like to achieve at the short term at the moment would be:
1. Pass my End of Year Exam.
2. Same as above.
3. Same as above.
Sounds familiar? Well I certainly have a lot of ‘If Only(s)’. If only I have done this…if only I have not done that…if only I have not made that decision…
The highlight of our ‘If Only(s)’ is our past. When we say ‘If Only’, we are referring to our past.
In Genesis 3:17, God cursed the ground after Adam first sinned. Since then mankind has to work the ground in order to produce food.
John 9 tells us a story about Jesus healing a man who was born blind. Blind since birth!. In this famous passage, Jesus spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva before putting it on the blind man’s eyes. The blind man could see soon after, for the first time in his life.
Sometimes we allow things to blind us from what God wants to do in our life; most of the time they are things from our past. The Devil likes to remind us of our past because there is nothing we can change about our past (true?). Then we start to say ‘If Only..’
In the passages above we find that though God has cursed the ground in the beginning, He has sent Jesus with a purpose of redemption. The ground symbolizes things that He wants to restore in our lives. The ground which was once cursed was used by Jesus to restore a man’s sight! Think about that.
Do you have anything in your past that you want to set free? We might not be able to change our past, but God can change the course of our future by not allowing our past to hold us down. God can turn your painful past around and do something great in your future, just like Jesus did with the blind man.

Welcome to my new humble little blog! This blog was birthed through a conviction and commitment to live 2008 fruitfully, honoring God and impacting lives along the way. Recently Christine dear prayed and felt that the word for me this year is Propel, hence the title of this blog :). When she told me about the word, something clicked in my soul, and I believe that this year is going to be a year full of amazing experiences for me. I believe that this year is going to be the year in which I am going to grow exponentially in many areas of my life. I am already so excited about this year and what God has in store for me! I pray that you will only want to propel forward this year as well! Let’s believe together for a great year ahead :)
