I think i quite like the new blog layout. found it at blogskins.. realised most of the skins are very feminine.. think i belong to an endangered species of males who blog..
haiz i accidentally deleted the haloscan thingy while changing my blog layout.. and i dun tink i will put it back.. cos i suffer frm commentophobia haha.. sometimes i am afraid that the things i say will offend someone or make some people feel awkward.. so without the feedback thing, i am spared the agony of wondering whether or not my ramblings are well received.. well, humans are self-deceiving creatures and i am just one of them.
the new background is a bit gloomy.. wanted to find something more cheery which reflects my mood now but couldnt find one that i like.. anyway i quite like this one.. i like the colour combination and the overall feel.. maybe it explains my character huh.. nostalgic, dreamy, worrisome.. i also like the road in the middle of the picture and the silhouette of the person in it.. well sort of depicts my life at the moment.. me treading down this path that God has set out for me.. He never promised it to be easy.. but the bible calls me to persevere and stay on the path.. this path to salvation and eternal life..
saturday was punj christmas party.. one word. awesome! yah it was that good.. the best and the most meaningful christmas party i ever had in my life.. i hope there will be many more to come..
in a nutshell, the party was about fun, food and fellowship.. and of course Jesus..
we certainly had loads of fun playing games, catching up with one another and getting to know newcomers among our midst.. it really felt that we were one big family.. the warmth and hospitality made me feel at home.. thank God for arpc and punj without which my Christian walk would not have been so smooth thus far..
and of cos there was a lot of good food.. pastries, pizzas, pies, fried rice, bee hoon, chicken wings, cakes.. the tiramisu cake by siwei was especially good.. tastes just like those u find in bakeries.. kevin's pastries too..
the talk by Lincoln was very thought provoking and encouraging at the same time.. indeed Christmas is not just a festival abt parties, catching up with friends, gift exchanging.. the true meaning of christmas lies in the name itself.. it is abt Christ.. it is abt Christ being sent down frm heaven to complete His Father's job of reconciling us to Him.. that we, in nature sinners and rotten and unable to save ourselves by our doings and efforts, have been made right because of Christ..
Christmas being round the corner, i juz pray that God will enable me to grow in faith, obedience and maturity.. and that i will submit totally to Him and live a life that is worthy of Him, one that is other people centred.. i also hope to have a brand new start to the year, to put everything behind me, to look forward to the new year.. 2005 will be a better year.
i'll worship You, my God; 11:08 PM
