Confession & Forgiveness

This post is personally between me and Our Heavenly Father.

Lately, i know i've been busy caring about myself. I never spent time with you and even if i did, it wasn't consistent. I confessed that i've been caring too much about myself and thinking what others are thinking. I always whine and complain and cry about being lonely and that nobody wants me. I never put You in my heart. I never put You first in everything. I never think bout You.

Oh Lord,

All the blessings that you have given me, i thank them and forgotten them. I have let myself being carried away by the things around me and with the people. I have neglected you so many times but You always find the way to turn me around. Turn me back to the right path. When my back turns away from you, you are always there to turn me back. You always make sure that i see you.

Lately, thanks to friends and family and brothers and sisters in church. They have reminded me about You. It really does make me feel so terrible after realizing what i have done towards you. I feel so ashamed about myself. I feel as though i do not deserve to be called YOUR DAUGHTER. I don't deserve to announce my good-doings (eg : going to church and prayer).

I want to live again by your word. I want to ejoice in your name and not afraid to tell the whole world about you. I want to live by you. Guilding every step in life for me. I will follow whatever you have planned for me Lord cause you have your love for me. And it's a never-dying love.

With freely you gave it all for me,
Surrender Your life upon that cross,
Great is the love
Pour out for me
This My God.

Lifted on high
Form depth to high
Forever My God is glorified
Servant and king
Rescued the world
This is My God!

So Father,

I seek for your forgiveness. I pray that You will never forsaken me. You are always my Father Almighty, King of heaven and Earth. Build my strength and courage. I pray to strengthen my spiritual faith and hope to walk with You forever and ever. I pray that you would continue to guild me in life and you stand by me. Teach me from wrong to right Lord. Teach me how to love you more.

Philippians 4:13
13 I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.

Isaiah 41:10
10 Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness.

Hebrews 2:18
18 For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

In the name of Jesus, forever and ever.

Amen.

Life is tough

Yet it goes on

Can't do anything much

But to stay strong.

Life is rough

Yet it's a ride

Have to get my wheels

And keep moving on.

Life is killing

Like a pain in your brain

Need to fine a cure

And it's gonna be STRENGTH

Life is loneliness

It takes only you to live

Sometimes it's good to be alone

In a world where there's only you.

Singapore Fair '09 in Geneva

Hey guys, i'm back again after so so long but i guess it's worth the wait. one of the biggest events that i've encountered here at Switz is Singapore Fair '09. It was organized by the Singapore Tourism here at Switz. I was invited by my friend, Lafina. It was nice. Although it's Singapore but it felt like home too as Singapore and Malaysia are very similar.

It was held in Geneva so we got to traveled all the way there. Very interesting was, it was like after quite some time being with your own people, own cultures, food and accent. I really loved it. It's just so much like home.

First thing first, i had to admit i went to the Singapore Fair ainly because of the food. Rendang, Rojak, Roti Prata, Curry laksa....who can ever resist?? I was impressed that they were quite a few varieties and they were all cooked by locals (as in Singaporean who are staying in Switz). They not only supported this event but also managed to promote their restaurant. I came to know that there is a Malaysian Restaurant in Geneva. I so have to check it out one day.

Well, prices were a little too expensive but we tasted the ones which we were so drooling over. For examples:

Rice with rendang.. Yum YUM..it was good

Curry laksa

"Heaven"-Food station


Rojak


Tandoori and all

I was pretty full after the plate of rendang and laksa. While they were showing slides or video of Singapore, i took a chance to walk around the hall and took some pics at the booths. They had all sorts of booths which symbolizes Singapore. For example, batik, games like sepak takraw, henna painting and etc etc.

So after the booths, they were performances too. There was a performance which was so so amusing and it was actually the first time i appreciated it.

Unexpected event and the most attention-capturing event!!!


Dong Dong Chang...



The one on the left must be the sifu. He looks so cool...

Among the crowds. Everybody was so so amazed.

The people behind the whole thing. Good job to them!!!


There was a teaching lesson too on how to wear shawls. It was really interesting too because just 1 shawl you can wear it in more than 20 ways.







She was really good in selling. A really good talker!


Nearby the hall, there was a park and Lafina and I took the opportunity to take some snapshots.

ENJOY!!!





I know i'm still short!!




So i guess this is about it. It's pretty brief and here we are wishing you guys have a nice day!!!




xoxo from Ally & Lafina!!
