Wow. First day of my *ahem* school holidays... spent the entire day today maths - differential equations and going through the answers for the maths block test, of which i scored poorly... wanted to do complex number, but cant the ws online.
then after dinner went to watch magic show! "Singapore's 1st permanent illusion show" - ULTIMATE MAGIC! @ the ARENA, down at Clarke Quay, by Singaporean Magicians.
seriously, the show.. okay lah.. i dont know how they do it, but i was not impressed at all. No biggie. Even if the girl is the only female magician in Singapore so what? They seemed more like show-offs though, a common trait of Singaporeans.
But i gotta give them credit. The last stance completely throw me off and it's the only one that really wow-ed me, where the girl vanished from the box to instantly appear in the middle of the audience. i saw the face of the guy in the audience of whom the female magician appeared all of a sudden beside him. His face was totally shocked. He dont even know how and when that woman got there. haha.
i got the ticket free, went wif my family... but the original price was $55!!!! and it was in a pub kinda setting. *shrugs* definitely NOT WORTH in my opinion. I rather watch david copperfield on tele. It has more feel in it. haha.
Well, really thankful today for the wonderful time spent with God this morning, in my devotion. My first devotion in many days and weeks, of not rushing through my devotion (becoz of school, or i compromised my duration for devotion, or something), but enjoying the time of focusing on the Lord, learning from the Word - the Bible - and even praying for different people close to my heart, events, and stuffs. Prayer builds up intimacy with God. and the past weeks as i have mentioned in the previous (dunno which one) post, that the intimacy has been compromised as i compromised my time set aside for devotion... and there were felt changes, not obvious but felt.
There's a need for me to find time to really seek God, reflect, and re-align again. I missed that last month, i'm not going to miss that again this month. XP i shall not let myself get so distracted that i once again lose focus and go through mundanity and stuffs again. i shall avoid at all costs a repeat of last year's situation. Once is more than enough.
I was encouraged by the testimony that 'vin shared wif me today, which was actually supposed to be reserved for tmr, but since i wont be going to church tmr, he shared wif me first. How that day was bad, stressful, sad, like the dark clouds and threatening to pour weather overhead, and he trusted God to hold back the rain as he decided to walk home instead of the bus, and was worshipping God and crying out to Him, and indeed only when he got home, closed the door, that the rain started pouring.
it reminded me that God's presence is always with us, regardless of how our day has been. It encourages me that the Lord our God is never too far away, no matter what the day may have been for us.
yup yup. thank You Lord that You're always here for us, regardless of everything; thank you for this encouraging reminder, and for the wonderful time spent with You this morning; thank you for granting me the discipline to do my work, and for the relaxing evening. Indeed, you're always here for me. Thank you.
