GOOD NEWS!!!!
----------------------
Queenstown won queensway by 1 point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(this means we stand a chance to be zonal top 4 if no more accidents!)
*PRAISE GOD!!!!* *celebration!*
*All our hearts.... flew up... back to where they belong.....*
For the past 2 days, we were all living in regrets, in daze after the match, as if we buried part of us when the whistle went that day. Everyone is downcast... we were just ashamed that it is about the end of our journey this year... for the sec 5... end of their basketball journey in sec sch... This morning when we sang our school song when it was about "sharing laughter and tears" i was reminded of our regrets.......
I recieve the good news from Mr Chua at 4 plus just now while i was out with my mummy, his instruction was to inform the players to take care n not to eat too much new year goodies for this 2 days... i called darren to convey the msg... it took me a quite a while before the joy and excitement hit me!!!!
My heart returned.. it was lost but it was found... somehow.. this has make this opportunity more precious then before. Orginally we plan to train on next tue only, but bec we lost n found it again.. the boys are calling for another trainng tomorrow.
I hope this will make the boys treasure it even more... fight even harder! stronger than before! That winning any match is not to be taken for granted!!! And ball is round! anything can happen! NEver be too arrogant and never underestimate any opponent!
I am so excited for them!!!!! We are on this journey with zeal again!

It was so unbearable! such a short notice! I got to rush to the teacher's table to retrieve the work for the class!!! It is such a great way to stress my day!!! I was supposed to finish my 4/5 markings and prepare for the day's lesson during the first 3 periods!!!!
Sigh!
Thank God for delivering me through the relief and finish markings on time!
Just had my lunch... my tummy not feeling well... feels like gastric but more bearable... a little more gas n bloated then usual....
Going to my last 3 periods of lesson before I call it a day! God bless me and my class that we have a great time learning and teaching!

Read Matthew Chapter 15
The following verses spoke to me this morning:
"Jesus called the crowd to him and said,'Listen and understand. What goes into a man's mouth does not make him 'unclean', but what comes out of his mouth, that is what makes him 'unclean'." ~Matthew 15:10-11
I pray that God will guard my heart that it will not breed evil thoughts and unrighteous words. Let nothing unclean come out of my mouth. In Jesus' name i pray, amen.

Sob sob!
We lost to queensway 48:50!
we were so close to winning...
so close to be zonal top 4....
especially at last 6 sec, whenn we time out and call for time out after W.S. put in a basket....
I wish time will stop there.....
now everything just fade away..
we drift further and further from our goal....
Everybody's heart sank to the bottomless pit... it is still falling.... Including coach's, mine and the 12players'.... .....
....
...
...
...
Mr Chua is still hopeful.... he figure out if queenstown win qweensway we will get in..... but.. that is beyond our control.... all in God's hand....
for now... our heart is still falling......
back in school, i broke the news to P. She was very encouraging... but... it doesn't help... .. the fact is we lost..... sigh....
just when i wanted to get on with the painful afternoon.... Got a phone call from P that subhas injuried his hand needed to be stitched.... my heart stop falling for a while and landed on the ground! Rushed out of meeting room, i saw a blood stain hand with a ugly plaster. subhas was still in daze... his heart hasn't stop falling since the whistle then.... Mr chua sent him to dover clinic to get his hand stitched.....
at the other side of the court.... D was in daze too.. was in rain... dazing.... everyone else too.... except sidney and S.H... who seemed to be less daze but wandering around... HK is the most ultimate.. think his mind was already with his valentine even before we board the bus back... should have throw him there instead....
sigh...
suhbas is back now... got 3 stitches... he is goin to get his worksheets before Mr Chua send him home....
sigh....

An anxious heart weighs a man down,
but a kind word cheer him up.
~Proverbs 12:25
This is the verse i tagged at Katherine's tagboard yesterday for her to read aloud 5 times. I read it 5 times as well.... The more i read... the more i understand...
Basically 2 things:
1. if i have an anxious heart, i will be weighed down... physically, mentally, emotionally and i will be stress out and sad.... So own my side i have to learn to "look on the bright side" and not be anxious... hold on to God's word and pray for His blessings to be on me.
2. A Kind word is antidote to an anxious heart. So I will administer many kind words to any anxious heart i meet so they will cheer up! (Hint hint: Children do administer kind words to me when u see me so i can cheer up! hee hee ;p)

Ronnie is happy!!! We had Reunion Dinner with spiritual family and marcus' family @ kembangan last Sat, ronnie tagged along as well!
It was kinda of last min decision to pop over kenbangan as mummy was upset that we can't be there and 2nd sis in law can't be there! (She is always full of reason not to attend family function! this time is she has OT @ home! can you believe it??!!)
Anyway... Mummy was happy in the end we are there... but not enough food... erm.. not really.. but not enough salmon, prawns n pork... the children eat alot of meat....
Caroline and Vicki broke their own record! they managed to eat for 3 hours.... Think next time we will go Seoul Garden... otherwise $160 is not enough for 8 pax dinner at home...
Some snapshots at the end of the dinner...
After dinner, childplay:

"DO not be rash with your mouth,
and let not your heart utter anything hastily before God.
For God is in heaven,
and you on earth;
Therefore let your words be few"
~Ecclesiastes 5:2
THere are just too many times that I regreted right after uttering the words.... Has it happen to u before? Then pride will making it harder for me to swallow the words back.. then things turn out the way I dreaded most.... Especially between me and my mummy and with marcus at time... sigh....
God, please help send angels to guard my mouth... let my words be few and not be rash with my mouth, may I be slow to speak and quick to listen. Let me not utter anything hastily before you. Father, I also prayed that You will help my daughters. Let them not be rash with their mouth and hurt You and people around them. Let their heart never utter anything hastily to You. Help them to grow in this area so they can be more like Jesus. In Jesus' name I pray all these. Amen.

Went to Leaders' mtg yesterday... it ended quite way beyond my bedtime... suffered today in school....
At the Leaders' Mtg, Ps Eugene shared from John Chapter 17 and goin deep in love with God which is shown through our love for one another.
Ps mention God is leading us from sanctification to unification
the 3 instructions was:
1. Remain in Him
2. REmain in His word
3. REmain in HIs love
- His love is one with compassion
My thoughts...
THank God I love everyone.. but my young ones are my heartaches... n headaches at heated moments... HOWEVER,they are my JOYS n smiles in the sweet moments... <3 you get what i mean? I Thank God for blessing me with them so I will learn abt patience n compassion love... n grow together with them! :)
Lord, I pray that You will teach everyone of us to love each other so that we can tell the whole world you are our King! LEt our love for each other be testimony of the depth of our love for You, for Jesus, for Holy Spirit. Help us, give us courage, patience, annointing, wisdom in our every daily interaction with people. Let us be a represetation of your love to people who have not known you. In Jesus' name I pray, amen

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,
and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
Matthew 11:28-30
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest....
hmmm... I guess me and my family need to go to God... for we are weary and burdened by school works, tests and CCAs....
Father, I asked that You will take our burden in exchange for Yours which is light and easy. Teach us how to leave our burden with You so we will experience rest from You and be renewed n not burn out. Bless us with Your rest n de-stress us daily... Help us to find peace in the midst of the difficult n testing time. In Jesus' name, I asked all these, amen.

YEsterday PE teaches about Prayer and Social life.
One important thing I learn is from 2 Tim 2:23,24
"Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels. And the Lord's servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful."

"You will not leave in haste or go in flight; for the Lord will go before you, the God of Israel will be your rear guard" ~Isaiah 52:12"You will not leave in haste..."
"You will not leave in haste..."
I am always in haste... I always need to do something, n do something quickly! My quiet time are the same... must read passage, write journal, ask God is it this? or is this that?....
I fail to see the power of being still in the Lord, allowing Him to work!
Father, I commit myself into Your Hand. Teach me to be still in Your Presence, teach me how to just wait upon you... allowing You to work and not always trying to jump in whatever situations with my solutions...

Isa 58:4 "I will cause you to ride on the heights of the land." To ride on the heights of the land, there must be wind. Like bird we will fly against the wind to gain altitude... guess what.. God's wind in life are the 'downs', 'sufferings', challenges, difficult times.... Well... I think i should change my perspective about the difficult times.... brave it.... knowing I will gain altitude with God... n not duck it... no running away from it..n definitely picking myself up from it!

Woke up late today... but managed to have cozy breakfast with dear dear....
Yesterday was a too tired to blog. Too much events, too much emo... too much happening... But I thank God He carried me through it all.... One thing i learn (& realise) is that i really need GOD... esp... when I am in this journey raising up my precious spiritual children... Each of them is so unique, delicate, beautiful... as each of them is God's beloved child.
Today went to our B boys played friendly against Dunearn Sch. Mr Nair was there as well to give his support. We won them... (dunno the score though). The victory is not the point. The most important point was the process. In the process, we learn how to stepped up our defence and kept the opponent's score low... and the young players get more exposure including Jia Hui... He did not bad! :)
Rush to IMM for lunch with my 'family' in NTSS. It was quite a enjoyable informative time... to catch up with ex-AM n other teachers. But I feel saddened n discouraged by some of the things happening in the office...
I am now waiting for dear dear to hang up the phone so we can bring Ronnie out... Ronnie is so excited to get out of house now.... as he has his harness now....

This morning, somehow God spoke.
He lead me to look at a devotion (from power of a praying wife):
"It's foolish to share every feeling and thought. That can hurt someone. Being honest doesn't mean you have to be completely frank in your every comment."I think it is important to
speak the truth in love. Children: think about it and keep on trying it whenever possible...
