Be strong and courageous!!

This is my 5th day of braces!! It's good now =D haha but when i speak, i sounded a bit weird tho.
This is how i look like with my bracess!



Anyway, after you've read my previous blog, u all shld know that i've been eating liquid food for the past 5 days! It was so sickening after some time! 2 days ago when i was eating with twin and the rest, i went to the chicken rice stall and ordered "Porridge without chicken meat (coz i really can't bite at all)", then the uncle see me like so ke lian..lol..then gave me 1 bowl of plain porridge for 40cents. Lol..i felt like...so poor thing..as if i'm poor to that extend LOL And for the last 2 days in NTU doing saturation, i only ate tau hua and fruit juice respectively for dinner!

Anyway Thanks to Mr good friend for ya treats and hosting!

Hence, I was...accumulatively....deprived!!! So!! Today after cell group, Aunty Violeta has prepared lots good food!! I was like "I don't care already!! i must eat some solid food today!" So i "gay1 kiang1" ate the noodles plus the seafood". My cell group friends are like .."Myrna!! you can or not?? you don't eat la!!" But i said, "Cannot! i didn't eat for so many days, i must eat! At most anyhow swallow and don't bite" haha and i'm eyeing the chicken drum stick.It's the best home made fried chicken drum stick!! really tasted like KFC ! So i went....took the drum stick....tear it into small pieces....smell it....Yum Yum...put it into my mouth.....!! Haiz! can't bite!! so i just swallow straight away. lol..But after a few mouthful, Adeline said it will cause indigestion..! =X So, there goes my drumstick to gabriel =X Gabriel is so funny! He keep laughing at my braces! He said the moment he sees my face, he's so distracted by the braces and asked me not to laugh and show my teeth!! How can i not laugh and smile!!

Wells, some reflection :)

Last night, we had "60 seconds of Fame" !! It was very good! haha all the contestants are so young and cute!! And they really had a lot of talents! =D

When i got home, i talked to my friend on phone for quite long. We talked about our teenage days and both of us had a common point: We had almost everything that one could possibly have then to live off as a happy teenager ..
-We had good grades; he's always 1st in class for the whole of his life till high school while i only got 1st in class in my sec 4.
-We are sociable and had lotsa friends around us.
-We got leadership positions in school cca/class.

We could have sail through our teenage days calmly and happily. But all these didn't satisfy us. We were feeling empty then.. :) Wells, i guess some of ya may have gone through the same thing as us. However, really, through the love of Christ, our lives are changed dramatically. God has given each and every one of us a destiny and our destiny can only be found when we see the Source of it. Praise God!

The next morning, i did my quiet time and God showed me Joshua chapter 1. It is the same chapter that He spoke to me few months ago when i'm at a void deck alone, crying my heart out. It's this Book again. 3 times, God says in 1 chapter, "Be strong and courageous" Why did God repeat this 3 times within 4 verses??? Because He know that throughout our life, we will be hit with rocks and stones!

Courage = Doing what is right even when there's fear.

And today, I really didn't read the sermon before hand, but Boonkiat preached this chapter as the main context! It really spoke to my heart :)

Sometimes we forget who are we running for and what are we running the race for.

Let's be strong and courageous! We have only around 80 years of life to make history! I don't wanna wait anymore, i wanna start making history now!! What about you???

Let's do it together!!
