Vacation: 13 - 25 August 2008

In Cambodia for 8 days, although I am not feeling well throughout the trip, but thanks God that His message is still clear- Clean and purify your heart. Many messages from Ps. Mike was like directing to me. How to have a right attitude and a greater growth. I believe I should used that in my workplace as well.
The Family
Although sometimes I fell like stuck on this island, but still need to give thanks because of what God has blessed me and how I can use that blessing to bless others. The touching part in this trip is not so much on how the Cambodian but through Bro David and his siblings. How they work together in God’s family really encouraging. Each of them have their own gifting and hope that one day more people in my family will join in hand to serve the Lord. David, Paul & Priscilla – There is a reason why God have 3 of you in the family.

FIT
I have learned a lesson during this trip as well. We really need to be physically and spiritually prepare to do mission work. It not easy and it is exhausting as well. So if I am going to join any trip in the future. Have to make sure I have enough sleep and bring Vitamin C as well.

Being Bless and Blessed
It is quite a reflecting experience to see how we travel all the way from Malaysia to Cambodia to help the local church. It reminds me of those great missionaries who travel to Malaysia to spread the gospel during the colonial period. That is how First Assembly Of God being established. God bless us in order for us to bless other.

There is nothing for us to proud because the great power is coming from the highest One . It is because He first loves us in order for us to love the others. We should continue to tell the love of God.

Children – Gift Of God

Shopping Shopping Shopping
After all this lesson I learn during this trip, for sure there were some slot for shopping. I bought quite a lot of stuff for my future house. Some accessories and paintings, I am wondering when will be a time God will grant me a house. I am going to display all the stuff that I have been collecting all these years.

Each of that small items will reminds myself what I have gone throughout the years. Some from China, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Singapore and Maldives, some of this place is as long as 2 years and some just few months or weeks. But it still tell a story of my life – The season of my life. I like the name of my blog, Season & Seasoning. I haven’t got the time to seriously write about it but will for sure find a day to tell everyone about that.

Gathering

Thanks God that He has arranged two great gathering for me in this trip. One is from my High School fren – Girl Guides and the one is my family gathering. In Girl Guides we know each other at least 14 years, Sue Ann & Yvonne (14 years), E Ven (16 Years), Weng Leai, Suet Lyn and Shiva (20 years).

Although we seldom meet each other, but this group of friends made a great impact in my life which still influencing me all these years. Their passion and commitment throughout one aim was so strong. How we apply each of our talents in different scope of work was great. Sue Ann, the loving, friendly and patient. Yvonne, the secretary and the reminder always make sure every details is in order. Even & Leai – our design director, from backdrops to den decoration. Suet Lyn & Shiva – PR directors will make sure will keep a good relationship with HQ and other school.


The support my family giving me all this years is great. They are not only morally supporting me but also financially supporting me during my study in Singapore.

Mum and dad are always busy with their work. But thanks God for this Olympic Closing, we manage to have a one whole day rest. It was fully occupied from Brunch – Yum Cha session - afternoon property shopping – evening: Hair Cut with mum – Night: Steam Boat Party.

In these ten years, my family has gone thru many things. But thanks God that we still manage to stay together and our relationship is getting better each day.

They might have some trials or argument in the future but will continue to pray that God will still uphold this family.

The Steam boat we have at home is the best Steam Boat in this planet. The soup is extremely delicious. See, we try to squeeze everything for this family gathering even moon cake also have. Well since I am not there to celebrate with them at least I can share some moon cake with them. Meng Han brought out his special collection of alchohol to share with us. Looks cool right, but too bad I cant drink even it look like the tarik ice. Kekeke.
