Woke up early for dim sum.

Ended up having dim sum for both breakfast and lunch. LOL. ~ Can just imagine Vi's dreaded look here ~

Sweet Paradise was a disappointment so I had to make up for it by going to Maxim for lunch.
Delighted that I manage to get the last plate of deep fried bird nest there. *heart* MorMor!

Couldn't find any bees fireworks at the wet market.
But then, who am I kidding? I'll get into trouble if I bought any.

Had a good long afternoon nap after doing some much needed housework.

Found an amusing quote online;

Be careful what you do, and with whom.
You never know who might find your fossil.

48 hours of Cub fast

leaves me...

with a clearer direction.

I was just so relieved when I started this.

That I slept really well on Monday night.

It hadn't been good to have statistics screaming in my head,

comparing the last 25 days or so vs data of 3 months last year.

And how everything was not going as planned or reflected on during my trip.

Managed to get some real Bible reading done.
And to just take deep breaths.

It's really interesting to read The Message with NKJV side by side.

(#272) And He's been speaking through that.

^.^

Now if I would just heed and NOT WORRY that this fast has left a dent on things.

Worn

Having the best of both worlds

Been on a rampage all week.
Relieved that the battle between 'I don't care' self vs 'Am I worthy?' self is over, having submitted my review.

Am on-call.
Sometimes it feels like I'm short changing God when I have to serve and work at the same time.
That sense is made worst, when I can hear myself afterwards from the recordings.
Hearing all my mistakes all over again.
Or the lack of melodies that I know comes about when I'm 'there'.

But with that said, having to serve and being on call meant also having this 48 hours that I just gotta trust Him.
For all the work stuff that I have no control of.
For enough rest in between work.
For Sunday mornings.
For mealtimes.

This weekend in particular, with everything going well work wise,
its this GIANT reminder that no matter how screwed up I can be He's still in control.
No matter how much I think I've failed Him, His love never fails.

And I'm thankful for that as well as;
Hearing people say, "We've been praying that you won't be called' which was a touch out of norm.
A sense of being cared for, to be mentioned in a prayer.
And so is having my recording, kohee, food and drumming time today.
None of which was planned.

Felt so spoilt because I certainly did not deserve any of it.
And that's like the icing on top of the cake. 

Family nights are...
