Packing...*yucks*

Untill now, I still don't understand how Kenneth can fit EVERYTHING he has in one big suitecase whereas after filling up three boxes, not even half of my things are packed!

Physics 101

Stress = Force / Area

Since the area of the brain is not that big, therefore the force per unit area will be larger aka more stress over a certain force compared to something with a bigger area. Stress is perpendicular (Correction: I meant proportional..Really (: ) to strain.

Strain = Change in length / Original length

Strain is the measure of deformation per unit length caused by an applied force (stress). More stress, more force, more change in length, more strain.

When stress is over strain, this is what we call Young's modulus.

Stress / Strain = Young??


I think not.

Thoughts in my head : Tendency to ignore's back. Effective yet not good. Na, help!

Relationships

To know what it's like to be in a relationship with another person, it takes you to

1. Say Yes to the relationship
2. Step into the "relationship circle"

Understanding it as an outsider outside the circle is possible, but never will you really have a taste of its joy, kodak moments, tears, hurt and even heartbreak that comes along with.

A relationship with God is not much different. We can stand by as spectators, watch and admire what is inside the "relationship circle" and yet not know what experiencing a relationship with God really is like. Stories of miracles happening, lives touched all seem pretty amazing but all these stays as that.

The steps are the same. A relationship with God requires you to

1. Say Yes to the relationship
2. Step into the "relationship circle"

Saying yes is the easier bit, but sadly enough, many of us after saying Yes still stand at the edge of the circle, occasionally reaching a left foot or right hand into the "relationship circle". What's worse is that you may be comfortably standing at the edge of the circle for years and don't even realize so.

Being at the edge is not bad, but it just means that you're missing out - missing out on experiencing what a relationship with God has to offer first hand. Big big difference from a second hand experience~

Maybe you're at that stage where you've said Yes to God and yet after so many years of saying Yes, you still have never experienced God in one way or another. I'm not talking about the experiences of God of other people, I'm talking about YOU experiencing Him for yourself. If that's you, time to look down and check whether you're standing at the edge of the "relationship circle".

I urge you, friends, to commit your whole self into the "relationship circle" when it comes to God and let Him be in control. Why?? and What for??? you may ask.

Here's what I think. Boy-girl relationships can promise you the whole wide world and yet most of the time leave you in shattered pieces, sometimes even more broken than you think you could ever be. A Godly relationship may seem unimportant at this stage of life yet it is one that picks up the shattered pieces of your life and in turn promises you new life -an eternal one in heaven.

God did not promised that along with having a relationship with God is a smooth and problem free life ahead. What He has promised is that everything that is happening is in His plans and when tough times come, we can rely on Him.

Footprints in the Sand

One night I dreamed I was walking
Along the beach with the Lord

Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand

Sometimes there were two sets of footprints
Other times there were one set of footprints

This bothered me because I noticed that
During the low periods of my life when I was

Suffering from anguish, sorrow and defeat
I could only see one set of footprints

So I said to the Lord, " You promised me,
Lord that if I followed You,
You would walk with me always."

But I noticed that during the most trying periods
Of my life there had only been
One set of prints in the sand

Why, when I needed you most
You have not been there for me

The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.

During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints
It was then that I carried you."

Experience God's goodness yourself and be sure to want to come back and have more of it. The joy along with it is simply indescribable (agree with William) and maybe thats why missionaries can work way past their retirement age and yet want to continue with more (agrees with Nana).

Why not give it a go?

"Taste and see that the LORD is good.
Blessed is the person who takes refuge in him."

Below are some pics of what I did when I was super worried bout my STAT (special ability test) yesterday. I believe I enjoy my ability to do this so much more than havin to sit for that test...sitting out in the sun and snapping away.

Spot the difference!!

More of You

Everyone has a testimony to tell but God never said that they cannot be similar! Hearing what he had to say was like listening to my own story repeated in his words. Encounter after encounter I have been hearing and reading testimonies that just leave me in complete awe.

[Indescribable - Chris Tomlin]

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

[Till I see You - Hillsong United]

I will live to love You
I will live to bring You praise
I will live a child in awe of You

While studying for tomorrow...

I came across this! It's what John Aspinall had to say while travelling to Coolgardie (a gold mining town in WA)

Dust and sands keep blowing into all the 'tucker' (food)
and you are continually grinding it between your teeth.
Another feature of the country is the presence of flies...
they fly into your mouth, promenade all over your face,
buzz into your ears, and keep rushing into your eyes
until you nearly go mad.

Eww? Hehee this fly kept me entertained for a while when I was in Yu Lin at daddee's desert work place.. So need to give it some appreciation :)

I can smell summer already and its gonna be dat time of the year where the flies are buzzing! So much of a white Christmas *grins*

Signing off: Stop being a fly!

I also wanna go!

Was gonna post up another post before this but find it quite meaningless so that shall just sit in my saved posts for now :)

The moment I read this from Keane's blog, it reminded me of the reflection card I wrote yesterday. Throughout this year, God has been really showing me the need of His love among people, even those that are right beside us.

Then I came across and read this post from Nana's blog and am startin to wonder whether God is trying to get something through to us. The fact that the same thing keeps repeating itself is kinda wierd yet interesting :)

I remembered someone asking me whether I will go into missions in the future. I don't know but if God calls, I want to. Praying that when the call is there, I will follow.

One thing's for sure. The need is there and even right where we are at whether we realize it or not. It does not have to be someone whose halfway across the world, famished and has no money at all. Missions can be right at your door! What about the neighbour whose experiencing the brokenness of family? Or even a friend who just needs a listening ear and yearn for something more than the emptiness of life?

Many a times, we just get so caught up with the rat race of life that we treat the rat race as life. Is there more to life than just this?

"The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.
Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field."
