Lyrics | Michael Buble lyrics - Haven't Met You Yet lyrics

My God is a GREAT GOD~

2009-10-06T17:37:00.003+08:00

How great is our God? Indeed VERY great… :)

Well why am I so happy?

Brothers and sisters don’t give up. Lord has His plan for each and every one of us. Whatever you asked in your prayers, will be answered. This is how God answered my prayers…though not 100% fulfilled…but I know…I got to be persistent enough and soon my prayers shall be 100% fulfilled.

I had this long prayers list where I usually will pray every night before I hit the sack.

One of prayer in my long prayers list is that I prayed for this person, A, who is a friend of mine that he will come to know God. I find it so difficult for me to talk to A about religion and there were once I asked him personally what’s his religion, and the answered I got from him is either “muslim” or “I don’t believe in God”.

That is so sad to hear it. I myself personally hope and wish he could come to know God because I feel that he lacks of something inside. He is a very fearful person and I know he has been carrying his excess baggage for a very long.

After sometime praying for his studies, his future and I always asked God to send an angel to protect him and let him see the light of God or hear God. And, God really loves me… God answered my prayers by sending another Christian brother to share gospel with him.

Wow…amazing isn’t it. I pray and God send a person to sow seed, and I wish I can harvest this “plant” or maybe God send a “salt or light” to save this person.

Thank you Father, Thank you Jesus, Thank you Holy Spirit… I know whatever I’m thinking without proclaiming it, You already knows it. You know me best… You know what I want…and even You don’t give me what I want but You still give me the best of everything. Thank You Lord.

Time flies....

2009-04-28T21:18:00.003+08:00

Actually I was thinking of blogging my wish list for the year. But after much thought, I think I better keep my wish list P&C. Hahaha... Therefore, as usual I will blog my random thoughts of the day.

'Pejam mata' been attached with this current company for 1 month plus already. Time really fly fast. Never been this fast as compared to study life. :)

'Pejam mata' we didn't talk for a about 2 months.

'Pejam mata' we didn't see each other for 4 months plus.

When 'pejam mata', everything like just happen yesterday. All things are still very fresh playing in my mind. hmm...

And if I continue to 'pejam mata', I will be moving back to PJ, and continue my lifeless daily routine. At times, I don't know how I managed to go through this kind of life, but somehow I did.

Finally at the end of the day, what have I achieved through these time that passes by???

.........................

a lil disappointed...

2009-04-22T21:02:00.003+08:00

Wow...tired. Physically not so tired but mentally tired. This job of mine requires me to really digest whatever I read and listen to. At times I need to read 3-4 times, yet I still don't understand what I'm reading. Today attended a 4 hours meeting and the meeting is kinda heavy for me, but I'm taking this challenge to learn more and hopefully I will be able to master it in a short time.
*God please shower me with the wisdom, in Jesus name I pray, AMEN!*

Actually at times I find that I'm really slow and stupid (sorry I know I should not proclaim it). Why? Sigh... simple things also I did mistakes and I have to trouble so many people. But thank God my manager is really nice, he didn't scold me but told me it's alright to learn from mistakes. But I feel frustrated because I'm such a blur girl. I felt useless as I am incapable in assisting him while he is so busy as well as I couldn't feedback to the salesperson in the nick of time.

I really have to thank God for giving me this opportunity to work with humble bosses. For all the little little stupid questions that I asked they are there to assist me and explain to me in a soft manner. As well as the little little mistakes that I made, they did not even scold me but as me to learn from it. As compared to my previous company's bosses, haha.. huge gap.

Anyhow, wish me all the best tomorrow and as the future coming days.... :)

God love you and me. Amen!

Sermon on the Mount

2009-04-19T23:01:00.003+08:00

Today was quite unusual for me because I oversleep and have this lazy mood, intend to skip church. But then, I speed all the way to SIBKL.

Thank God for not skipping church today as today's sermon entitled ' Sermon on the Mount' was really a great sermon and this gonna last for another 11 weeks.

Sermon on the Mount is basically about Jesus sharing his words with His disciples on the mount. Pastor mentioned Jesus did so because He wants to differentiate those who are serious from the curious. I started to self reflects, am I serious to seek God or am I curious to know how is it like seeking God? [Matthew 5:1]

Another thing pastor mentioned was "many are called but few are chosen". [Matthew 22:14] Then again, I started to think whether I want to be called only or whether I want to be called and chosen? Because as a Christian, we sometimes tend to take for granted. We keep giving excuses for not serving God. As for me, I keep giving myself excuses for not attending cell groups. Pastor warned, "Doesn't mean you are a Christian, you can do what you want." Very true also... we always do what we want, then at the end of the day pray and ask for forgiveness, then next day start doing again. Then, what's the point get baptized so soon? Might as well baptized a day before death...lolx

Pastor's main intention is that everyone who hears the words of God will put into practice. Not just listen and then the next moment is like nothing happen and nothing really matters. [Matthew 7:24-27]

Next, let's put into practice the beatitudes in the book of Matthew. [Matthew 5:2-12]

Monday blues

2009-04-19T22:43:00.003+08:00

My Monday task...sigh....

Don't know whether I should be happy or sad. As usual, reporting is a must. I don't mind that and I realized the more I did, I become very meticulous. Thank God for that.

But after the reporting, I need to call up the sales people for the sales updates. This is not an easy task but sounds easy and most of the time they just entertain me by saying 'not yet', 'budgeting' or 'lose'. On the other hand, my manager wants me to update him in details. Sigh... I feel useless for not building a strong rapport with the rest of the colleagues that is why they are treating me this way.

Worse is I need to call up my clients... Sigh... Everyday they are in the rush, and you just got to speed up like a bullet train. The good ones will just reply you, ' Yeah thank you' while the majority really pissed off with you by replying, 'what are you talking, call back, not interested and hang up'. I usually will stunned for a few minutes then only I can get back to normal.

Damn... thinking of what is really gonna happened tomorrow makes me scared and wants to avoid work on Monday. But then again, I cannot run away from reality. All these I need to face and overcome it. All I can do is to pray to God for guiding me through.

Those who are reading this, please do also pray for me. :)

LIFE + WORK !!!

2009-04-17T16:29:00.001+08:00

ONE MONTH!!!

I mean 1 month… exactly 1 month I’m attached with this company.

So how is my life as a young working adult?

Working life, sux big time!!!

Weekdays, have to wake up damn early to work, and then wait for lunch time, knocked off, then home, and sleep. These had been going on for the past 1 month. That is very unhealthy. Weekends are the only 2 days I have a little time for myself but it seems like these 2 sweet days are quite short and time flies fast.

Pressure at work…

Aww… many people told me you are new, there are no pressure for you yet. Take things slow and easy but things are not as simple as what others think. Moreover, if you are doing things you never see in your entire life and things that you have no idea of. Last week comes my nightmare when I start attending all the training that requires my attendance. Wow, training… tells me about it man. OK cut this short, the duration of the training seems short (either 1 or 2 hour(s)) but the facts that presented are hell a lot and very technical. Goodness, I stared at the presenter blankly. My jaws drop when my boss told me I have to take the written exam as well as the presentation exam. Hallelujah!

People at work…

Hahaha… weird! Yea…am I not pressing the correct button? Ok, my job requires me to bark the salesperson to get in the sales and they have to update me with all the sales that are coming in. They are very BUSY people and don’t have much time to update me because to them my work is not a necessity but an EXTRA burden to them. I guess… hahaha... but however, I pray that my relationships with them are getting better and that we all can really work as a team as time goes by. Hope that they could be more cooperative with me.

Apart from the main… do I like my job?

Hahaha…everyone closes to me knows my answer. I won’t publicly voice my opinion on this but I know that this is tough and I have lots to learn. All I could do is pray every day and ask for God’s assistance.

Those who read this please do pray for me too.

Thanks & God bless you too.

Amen!

Sorry for the "tortoise" updates

2009-04-08T22:46:00.009+08:00

It's such an ashamed for quite awhile I did not update my blog. Sorry for those who keep track with my blog. This is because I'm so exhausted after a long day work and I'm too lazy to on my laptop when I'm back home. Secondly, because my laptop got badly infected with virus. Thirdly, I can't access to websites like Facebook, Blogspot and many more unrelated to work websites.

But you will be wondering how come I still can type this blog if my laptop are that badly damaged.

OK... cut the crap, my mum helped me to take my laptop back to BM for a friend of mine to reformat but then due to time constraint and that the virus are too strong, he couldn't help much too.

I'm actually waiting for the Data recovery software to finish upload because I have lost all my pictures in D-Drive. If the pictures are that important? YES!!! All my convocation pictures. Tell me about it... mum will be so frustrated if she found out about it. But really keep the fingers cross, hopefully this Data Recovery software could help me a little and then I can sleep in peace.

Pray for all my files to recover. :)

Thank God for answering my prayers

Tired…

I just got back from meeting a girl. Her name is Elaine. Hmmm… pretty sweet and nice girl. A long journey to her place was worthwhile.

Mee Zyenh called me yesterday night informing me her good news with a good intention of introducing me to Elaine who is working with the career recruiters. MZ told me Elaine could help me get a suitable job. Therefore, without hesitation, I e-mailed my resume to her.

This morning Elaine called me to make an appointment with her. After hang up her called, I called Cynthia darling, she told me she saw my UTAR application and that she had shortlist me, asked me to wait for the good news. This good news did not stop me from meeting up with Elaine either.

Elaine told me she had an immediate vacancy with her which is the similar position with Mz’s new job. She interviewed me and told me she will arrange an interview with the company. I was thinking what if I got the job she introduced and UTAR offer me too. Mz told me the company will sign a year contract if they offer the job. So I told her honestly what's the situation that is bothering me. After a long discussion with Elaine, she still advised me to go for the interview first.

After the interviewed, Elaine suddenly pop-up a question, “Melissa, are you a Christian?’ Nothing surprises me why she asked me that, because I was wearing my crucifix necklace. But then after I answered her yes, the both of us got lots of conversation to talk about. Haha… Then she asked me which church I goes to, how I was saved and etc.

One thing we had in common, she had the same experienced I had yesterday. Haha… the world is so small. She advised me to reject the offer immediately. She said that she find that the company abit weird too and that is not a stepping stone for fresh graduate. Oh thank God for letting me meet this girl. She told me she left half way through the training and does not have the patience I had to wait till the whole training ended.

Haha… now I’m so sure what I had observed is not wrong. I think God send her to answer my prayers. :)

Tough journey to decide...

2009-02-22T02:39:00.011+08:00

I am actually disappointed meanwhile a little glad too. Basically mix feelings. Sigh…Such a fickle minded girl I am.

Disappointed…

I was at the point where I am so near to the ending point and about successfully receive this award proudly and gloriously. But due to a small tiny pothole right in front of me which I myself don’t even realized, I fell. Thus, I need to turn back to the starting point and start walking again.

Glad…

This time I hope this failure makes me realized it is a stepping stone and lesson to learn in order for me to finish the race track successfully. However, this journey through this competition seems pretty short but it takes time.

Time…

In my opinion the minimum time frame for me to reach the ending point is at least 2 years. I was thinking how am I going to finish this race by not knowing if I will successfully own this award. How am I supposed to know if this award is not taken by other winners? I know it very clearly that this is a challenging competition with many tough competitors fighting with the same aim and purpose.

THE AWARD!!!

Well even though the award does not seem to be highly valuable or superbly impressive, but then the award is capable to attract and captivate the competitors’ heart. I know this time it is very tough, but if I won this competition, I know I will value this award very much. This is because I work hard for achieving the award rather than not doing anything.

The questions are…

Is it worthwhile for me to continue in this competition?

Should I give up?

What are the promises of the award?

For the time being, read my blogs here.

When I have plenty of time, then I'll import those blogs from Friendster to Blogger. I realized Blogger possess a wider features as compared to Friendster. Plus I dislike the Friendster's blog update notifications that will be sent out to the entire network in my friends' list.

So, bear with me til I'm used to the features first. :)

Have a blessed day! Adios!
