More Cheered Up =)

Roll of Honour.. Haha..

1. The Great Almighty GOD

Thank my Father God for putting many people in my life to help, encourage, comfort and "rebuke" me. Okay, yes.. I felt very discouraged, very down when all these things come crumbling down on me.. overwhelming and I thought my God was too "small" to handle my "big" problems..

But God is always good yah.. He caused me to be so tired.. then I went to zZZ for 5 full hours this afternoon.. and I missed the chance to watch "Brokeback Mountain".. hee

During the 5-hour rest, I had many dreams but there is only one particular dream which I remembered haha.. God Father showed me something, he gave me a brother in Christ to hug and I cried and cried and cried in the dream.. Wow.. isnt that awesome.. That was what I asked for, right?　haha.. keke.. Hee.. then in the dream, this brother got to tell me "don't hug so tightly leh".. I thought that was so funnie.. But I wouldn't disclose his identity.. heehehe.. =p

2. 大姐

She rebuked me... I thought it was a good wake up call.. I asked her via sms if she was upset with me on Wednesday. As she wrote: "Upset is quite strong word.... U were not exactly like that in the past. Used to be more rational and taskoriented. Just take note not to let emotions get better of you cos it also affects others..." Okay.. yes.. I was so engaged in my own pain and sorrow that I caused people around me to be affected, my own performance to be affected.. I am sorry, 大姐.

But I must thank dajie for caring.. If you dont care, you wun bother with me too, right? hee.. =)

3. Brothers in the Support Group

Bro Cam was so stern during the support group.. He wanted to "steer" me away from my emotions and help me see the situation better.. and frankly to a point I was hurt inside.. But later in the night, he called and talked to me separately. As usual, very "uncle" of him but this time, totally no preaching this time round. Well.. He also attempted telling me a joke to cheer me up.. haha it was a good and apt joke.. not easy to humble and joke about himself.. I really cheered up alot la.. thanks brother..

Brother Spidey ahh.. hmmm.. okay.. what he did made me cried... and what he did was overwhelming but I must say what he did would not be possible without true brotherly love for me.. =) Thanks brother.. you never fail to care for me. Thanks for the hug, affirmation and love.. =)

Anneh also encouraged me and granted me "permission" to call him even at wee hours if I need someone to talk to.. Very affirming and loving of him.. Thanks Anneh. =)

Thanks to Chun Rong for defending my situation and explained to me about Bro. Cam's position just now.. hee.. Very sweet of you brother.. Hugz

Brother Reuben reminded me of Ps Benny Ho's teaching on "Breaking out of Soulish Living". His own sharing was very ministering and encouraging too.. Thanks brother Reuben.

Every brother, in his little or big way, cares for me..

Wow.. I need to share this. I think Brother Sean is getting more assertive.. hee... The Lord is doing alot of wonderful things in him.. haha..

"You've to take great care of yourself, Dan. Your exams are coming soon. If possible, try to channel your energy and thots into studying instead. At least you'll find yourself accomplished some of your exam prep while you went through difficult (times)... Don't let your emotions affect your study, if you did, it's not worth it... Just my piece of advice. Sleep well, Bro."

Awesome.. this is real awesome.. Well if something is worth giving thanks for, this is the one!! God is working in many people's lives. Amen. Thanks Brother Sean for your piece of advice. Fully accepted!

4. Serene 姐姐

Thanks be to Serene 姐姐 for her steadfastness in helping me! =) Though, I kept rejecting her.. she still pressed on to help me.. She also used the parable of ON/OFF/PONDER buttons to advise me.. Haha.. thanks 姐姐. Yes, you may continue to be the shepherd for Christ and guide me me in my walk with the Great Shepherd Lord Jesus. =) Thanks alot, Serene 姐姐!

5. Mr. Lui

Yes yes... Mr. Lui, thanks for the e-card.. haha.. very innovative and very sweet of you.. Thanks for walking besides me encouraging me.. God sees that!! =) AND I really really and gratefully appreciate you very very much.. Mr. Lui. Thanks!!

6. Brother Peterson

Brother, thanks! I don't know wat to say and I must fully agree.. This is what Brother Peterson wrote: "(There is) no need to cover (my struggles) up with a 'Christian happy mask'. Jesus longs to fellowship in our sufferings." Thanks brother for your cyber hugs.. haha =)

Thanks everyone else who knows about my struggles and is praying with me and for me..

I will be stronger and rely on God to provide the right bonding and love from the people around me.. I know He will provide and I shall be obedient and trust in Him. Shalom.
