:We cannot do great things, only small things with great love:

Thursday, January 03, 2008

First post of the year of 2008. Looking back at 2007, it had been sort of a tough year for me.. many things happened, good and bad. But overall, God has been good in my life, He brought me out of the tough times, bringing plenty of encouragement from friends around me, friends who never gave me up when i couldnt hold on myself.. Thank God for friends..

Well, 2008 will be the best year yet for me cos it'll be a time for me to go thru NS.. for all who dun really know me, i am still clearing my last module in my Poly life.. Looking at all my friends going in NS really makes me feel anxious and nervous about going in.. After all, all men gotta go thru it and my turn is coming.. probably in another 3 months or so.. NS will be a time of moulding, a time of shaping of my character, and also a test of friendships and relationships.. Sometimes, insecurities will arise and it will come to show tt how impt wad true friendship is and also how to learn to trust ppl even more.. Hopefully, God will see my weaknesses and give me more wisdom to handle these issues..

Anyway, 2008 is the year that i hope to accomplish somethings great in my life. Fulfilling my goals in this year is also a major target i have.. some of the plans i have is to have better financial management, i always understood the importance of saving up for rainy days, but ended up always using my money to buy some un-needed "wants" rather than saving up for the "needs" in my life.. well, it has always been my weakness so i hope that this is the year i can overcome this.
Also, i want to have better relational skills so that i can build better relationships with ppl, esp with my close friends, cg mbrs and those i care for.. I dun wan to have superficial friendships anymore..I truly agree with wad pastor has shared and that is to have true friends, u gotta be friendly yourself. You gotta be willing to share good times and bad times with your friends, you gotta share your thoughts and feelings with them.. no point keeping it to yourself and having your own pity party.. only when u share then ur friends will know how u feel instead of having to guess how u feel.

Well, 2007 has been bad cos i see my close friends going ns, and when i face problems, i realise i have no one to share with, only to bottle them up myself.. but when i know that i cant handle them, i know tt i had been depending on my own strength too much.. But things have changed, i know for sure that whenever i fall, i have my God who will be there to catch me and i can be very sure that i can depend on Him for all things..

Thus, i must learn to focus on the right things and continue to trust in Him.. 2008 will be the best year yet!
