My prayers answered!
I am 30 years old and here I am standing on the stage to give my personal testimonial.
Trembling as I am, having butterflies in my stomach, a hand clutched onto mine firmly and a comforting gaze into my eyes eased all tensions and anxiety. "You can do it dear." "Take a deep breath and start off to share our testimonial k?" And I shared mine and she shared her testimonial too.
As we end off our testimonial sharing, the partisan crowd of 10,000 people applauded and cheered like never before.
This is my vision of my relationship in the next 5 years with you.
It's amazing how things can unfold in the last 3 days since Saturday night when the question was finally popped by my leader and yup, my prayers were answered and I am just awaiting confirmation from her now. Whether it comes to past or not, it's really in His hands but I am still 'recovering' from the aftermath of Saturday night. In fact, couldn't really sleep well last night after the reality sunk in as I shared my testimony with Ah Zhi. Truly Awesome stuff and the most awesome thing is that there is no pressure right now at all.
Because all I can do is to pray and keep praying and keep believing by faith that it's all going to happen and unfold one event at a time.
When it's all confirmed, you can be sure that I will be first to share the news here and via sms together with some photos if possible!
Right now, I would like to thank 3 individuals who have made a difference in my life in the past few months.
1) Iris - Thank you so much for your leadership and guidance in the past 4 years! You have been a great example of servanthood and leadership to me personally! Thank you for lending me a listening ear when I was down and depressed. Thank you for your encouragement and last but not least, thank you for always believing in me!
2) Kei - No word/words can describe my gratitude towards you. As a classmate and friend, you brought me to Christ. As a discipler and friend, you showed me how a true believer should stand by their convictions and maintained a Christ-like attitude in all circumstances. As a confidante, you have always been there for me and as I recall my last 6 years, there is seldom a phase of my life that you were missing from it!. You have seen my tears and my ups/downs throughout the past 1.5 years. Although we are no longer in the same cellgroup anymore, I hope that I can serve together with you as leaders in the near future!
3) Zhi - You're truly awesome man. Though I have only known you for the past 3 - 4 years, you have always gave words of wisdom every single time. You've also shown me that with God, nothing is truly impossible! In addition, your generousity and equal treatment of everyone has also convicted me of many things that I have failed to take note of. You've been more than a friend and brother to me. You have been a leader and someone that I can always look up to when I am lost. To have recieved a word of affirmation from you last night was just mind blowing but yet humbling. It's like putting a stamp on a long over-due letter. Thank you for every single thing that you've sown in my life and may our friendship last not just a lifetime but for ETERNITY.
There are many other close friends that I would like to shout out to! Thank you so much for your constant encouragement for the past 1.5 years!
Moving forward, I have 10 other targets that I would need to plan for in the few months or so:
1) Start on a MBA program locally.
2) Secure a permanent position with HSBC.
3) Develop my leadership qualities in all aspects (Personal, Career and Relationship)
4) Lose 5 kg by year end.
5) Acheive a 5 figure saving target by year end.
6) Design and develop a portal for my dad's company.
7) Be more accountable, teacheable and mouldable.
8) Be more transparent.
9) Start a polo-tee retail business.
10) Love and give more to my family and friends.
By writing my goals down, it's to remind myself of what I need to finish up by end 2007.
Last but not least, thank you for reading my blog entry and do tag if you would like to leave a note. (ps: its the 3rd button on your left.)
Thanks!
God bless!
me
