The Great Debate: Is It Better To Be Single Or Married?
"It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need somebody to clean up after them!"
-Lynette, age 9

"It gives me a headache to think about that stuff.I'm just a kid. I don't need that kind of trouble."
-Kenny, age 7


Heheh... kids say the darndest things. But there is a childish wisdom in Kenny's words... :P Not like me. Looking for trouble. I guess I'm strange that way...
Words words words...
It feels good to be talking again but yet it may not be real? I don't know the truth, but I do know how this feels. God has done so much for me... So I shouldn't worry anymore. Daryl... did your worrying get you where you are today? Nope... If I hadn't worried at all and just trusted Him all the way, I'd still be here... Maybe I'd have grown even more!! I have to remember where I stand. The decision isn't mine. All I should do and MUST do is pray. He'll take care of this.

My weekend was packed as usual. Its funny how I can be so tired and still wake up after only 6 hours of sleep... Its kinda irritating especially if I want to sleep in on Saturdays... Went to the indoor stadium for the Hillsong concert. It was quite amazing to see the entire stadium full and jumping and singing to worship songs. It was beautiful! But a bit crowded though.. :P Didn't know most of the songs that they sang cos I'm not a hillsongs fan.

Worship in church this morning was good too... Impromptu styling of the songs was a good idea. Allowed the Spirit of God to flow freely. I had a good time worshipping at the drums again! Had a good worship at the youth camp committee meeting as well. Its amazing how easily we get into the presence of God these days. Discussed the budget of the youth camp. Praise God that the budget could be reduced. All those verses from prayer meeting on Friday night did make a difference! Which brings me to another point. I've been noticing how God has been making things 'coincidently' work out for my good. I really thank Him for all the blessings.

Jamming just now was good too... We polished up our four songs. Working on showmanship now. We have another gig the day after sonicfest on 30 August. It'll be at Takashimaya. Exposure will be good but it'll be tiring for me... Been playing a lot of drums recently. Worship practice, Worship on Sunday, Megapraise practice, Cheapthrills practice.... I guess its good in a way... Get to play more. :P

"Dear Lord... this post is for you... I include in this post all my burdens, worries and anxieties. I exchange them for Your yoke which is lighter. Allow me to grow more in You and become what You have planned for me. Help me remember that You give me strength to handle every job, situation or temptation. Remind me that I can rejoice in You in spite of all these... I thank You for what You've done for me so far. Lord, I give myself to you again so that I can grow even more. Amen"
