A message from God

It has been months that i have this 'feeling' which made my soul so restless and distrubed. Everytime i have it, something bad would happen to me that day. Adrian said that is a gift from God, a descerning spirit.I was praying and asking God what is this about and what can i do about it. Something happened during the senior confirmation camp, i guess God not only wants me to go there to serve but also receive something from Him.
I was praying really hard about it because it constantly bothers me, this feeling i mean. Then on the third day of camp(sunday) morning, i went down to the living room of Fr.OC's house(his really nice to let us stay there during camp).Still feeling groggy and blur due to a late night of preparation for mass for that day. As i sit on the couch, waiting for the blurness to wear off Adrian suddenly ask me something that makes me think. He ask "Which armour of God is for offence?", i was stunned with his question and look at him with a blank stare. Looking at my blank stare he say that maybe i'm not awake yet and continued with his work.
That question did made me think...the whole morning. Then Adrian ask me to pray over people over the praying session. so i feel that i'll need to pray, so i perpare myself to find a quiet place to pray. But God's spirit prompt me to pivk up the Bible and read. I reluctantly do so. i opened up my dailly bread, turned to the page(28th may 2006, sunday) and opened the Bible to the verse that is stated there. Guess what it was Ephesians 6:10-18...it talks about the armour of GOD!!!

Ephesians 6:10-18

10
1 Finally, draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power.
11
Put on the armor of God so that you may be able to stand firm against the tactics of the devil.
12
For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens.
13
Therefore, put on the armor of God, that you may be able to resist on the evil day and, having done everything, to hold your ground.
14
So stand fast with your loins girded in truth, clothed with righteousness as a breastplate,
15
and your feet shod in readiness for the gospel of peace.
16
In all circumstances, hold faith as a shield, to quench all (the) flaming arrows of the evil one.
17
And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18
With all prayer and supplication, pray at every opportunity in the Spirit. To that end, be watchful with all perseverance and supplication for all the holy ones
I guess i got the answer about the feeling that i have. I think God wants me to use His armour, especially when i have that 'feeling'. To use the armour to fight the evil spirit because our battle isnt agaisn't human forces but agaisn't the rulers and authorities and thier dark powers which govern the world. I am to be a worrior of Christ, to stand on His side in the front line to fight.
Dear Lord, teach me to use your armour, thats my prayer...

A day out with ex-roomie


This girl below is my ex-rommate, Lien Tze :) i live with her in the same hostel room for one and a half year. Before she came in, i was praying to God that He would be gracious enough to give me a good roomate which i can talk to and bond with. Always a faithful friend, God sent me a roomate which i can bond with.The first time i saw her, was when i just came back from college extra activites. She was talking to her friend in fleunt malay and i thought that she was a malay. Not till when i start to talk to her that i know that she a typical chinese from Sabah (No offense shes a cute and adorable girl). From then onwards we had been really good friends; we can talk on almost alot of things and we share lots of nice emories toogether too. So this day(i forgot the date already), since both of us are holidaying; we decided to eat sushi and watch movie and just hang.

So we meet in Sunway Pyramid and bought our movie tickets first before
we proceed to the movies. After that we went to Genki Sushi for lunch. Lien Tze say that she miss eating sushi and would like to eat sushi...so there we are, Genki Sushi. I like to eat sushi too, used to work in Sushi King so thats why i know how to make sushi :) I like the genki sushi in Sunway pyramid. Its has a very warm and japanese ambience in it. The sushi there is cheaper than Sushi King and nicer(excluding thier rolls, i think Sushi king's rolls are unbeatable). I have a thory that they only hire cute guys there too....hehehehe...so you can 'cuci mata' while you enjoy thier food there :D








There are alot of variety for us to choose from....we choose and ate and order alot of sushi.
