Me, Pooi san and mei!

What a friend i've found.
It is You who give me hope, faith and love.
As my heart cries out to You,
I hear Your voice calling out to me.
You comforted me,
bringing me close to you.
You sheltered me,
making sure that I'm safe under Your wings.
You lifted me up,
when things tumble and my heart sorrows.
You gave me Your peace,
when I'm struggling in the chaos of my thoughts.
Your love never fail.
I'm more than thankful to You. Beyond words.
You're forever in my heart. Jesus.

- Napalie, Your beloved child.

Hehes met up with Yahlan and Elizabeth this afternoon. :) Yahlan needs help in typing some stuffs for Easter. And we had a great lunch @ Raffles City newly renovated food court :D Shared a sliced fish brocolli with liz and she ate so little! She broke my record O.O Hehes liz was so funny and we went crappy. Today was the very first time i talk to Yahlan and met her in such small group. She is very nice and warm.. Hehes it's like the peace and love of God surrounds her! :) She is quite humorous too hehes and she shared with her daughter Enya and baby son Joakim development. Hehes i was totally amazed that Enya actually started to sense and process emotions at 16 months! She was able to say "sorry papa" then already! And their children loves their father and mother and has good interactions ya. Now she's 3 and has really good EQ. Hees the blessing of God is really prominant in her life. :)

Share with you a rendition of Superwomen by Paulini! :)



Verse 1
Early in the morning
I put breakfast at your table
And make sure that your coffee
Has its sugar and cream

Your eggs are over easy
Your toast done lightly
All that's missing is your morning kiss
That used to greet me

Now you say the juice is sour
It used to be so sweet
And I can't help but to wonder
If you're talking about me

We don't talk the way we used to talk
It's hurting so deep
I've got my pride, I will not cry
But it's making me weak

Chorus
I'm not your superwoman
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down
And think that everything's okay
Boy, I am only human
This girl needs more than occasional
Hugs as a token of love from you to me, ooh, baby

Verse 2
I fought my way through the rush hour
Trying to make it home just for you
I want to make sure that your dinner
Will be waiting for you

But when you get there you just tell me
You're not hungry at all
You said you'd rather read the paper
And you don't want to talk

You like to think that I'm just crazy
When I say that you changed
I'm convinced I know the problem
You don't love me the same

You're just going through the motions
And you're not being fair
I've got my pride, I will not cry
Still I can't help but care

Repeat Chorus x2

Oh, baby, look into the corners of your mind
I'll always be there for you through good and bad times
But I can't be that superwoman that you want me to be
I'll give my everlasting love if you'll return love to me

Repeat Chorus

If you feel it in your heart
And you understand me
Stop right where you are
Everybody sing along with me

Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
I'm the kind of girl that can treat you so sweet
But you got to realize that you got to be sweeter to me, oh, ho, ho

Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
Hoo, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, hoo
I need love
I need just your love

Repeat Chorus

I'm not your superwoman

Eunice!

Cheryl!

Sebrina!

Me!

Dar dar! Shy for cam lol

Happy valentine's to all! :) Hugs and love to my girl friends out there. :) I love the lilies and i love you even more darling. Now my room smells so nice because of you. Hehes. :)

Yest's service was really fantastic and super funny. Haha the drama people really acted so well. Plus Pastor's Kong's jokes and all makes the message so alive. Since it's Valentine's day, Pastor has started a series of message for Relationships/Marriage. Thank you Pastor Kong :):)The bible message for this series is 1 Corinthians 7:3 (GNB) "A man should fulfil his duty as a husband, and a woman should fulfil her duty as a wife, and each should satisfy the other's need." We all have needs. When we love somebody, we will want to meet his/her need. Just like how God have met our needs. When two are married, they should meet each other's needs, and they should give each other's exclusive rights. When the needs are not met, frustration and unhappiness will build up. And conflicts will occur. Marriage is when we vow to spend the whole lifetime with that one person. If that one person cant meet the needs, who can they seek? They will tend to seek the needs elsewhere and that often leads to an affair. It is not intentional and not delibrate. But because the husband and wife does not meet each other's needs. We all have a LOVE BANK for somebody and Love units accumlate and decrease as according to the experience we have with the person.

I believe this is so so true. We cannot be selfish and self-centered in a relationship. If i expect my husband to be meet my needs, i cant neglect his. I want care and affection, but i cant simply just think of myself and my own needs only. Cos he is human too. Who doesnt have needs? He has his needs and i will love to fulfil his needs.

Pastor Kong then talked about the Top 5 needs of women and men, from a survey made for 25 years. He refered to many bible verses and i realise man is Human and not God. And many things like He stopped at the 3rd need cause not enough time and he will continue next week! It's really so true and i think we should learn to meet each other's need in order to have a fulfiling relationship. Thank God for His love and example.

Top 5 needs of Woman

1. Affection
It symbolises security, protection, comfort and approval. The use of expressive words is important to make a woman feels loved. Hugs and kisses are essential to keep her secure and comforted. Man may grew up unaffectionate, but if one truely love his wife, he need to learn. God is so affectionate and expressive, and we must learn to be more like Him. :)

2. Conversation
Woman is wired up for conversation and man should meet their wife's need to communicate. Without communication, wife will feel emotional detached from her husband. 15hours/week is the minimum requirement for each man to talk to his wife. :))

3. Honesty and Openness
Honesty is essential to keep the marriage from misunderstandings. Man should not keep problems from wife, saying that he don't want to worry her. It is because burden built up in man while the woman's ignorance of it will cause the marriage to topple. Husband and wife should handle the burden together and support one another.


Top 5 needs of Man

1. Sexual Fulfilment
The number one need has to be fulfilled by his wife. This doesnt mean the man is dirty or lustful. But it's just how man is wired up to be. That's how God makes us multiply. :)

2. Recreational Companionship
It is important for man to have recreation and have fun. It's important that the most enjoyable time the husband spent is with no other but the wife. The wife must be his best friend. However, the wife must enjoy it as well.

3. Attractive Spouse
We may think that if the guy really love us, he should accept who we are. But one important fact that we need to know is that man is Human, not God. God looks at our heart, but man is attracted to appearance. And wife need to remain attractive even when married for many years.

I think these are all so true. Let us be better lover and make marriage heaven. :)

Today i skipped lecture again. Was feeling very weak since i had fever last fri night. Plus the sleepless nights i felt my body is failing me. I hardly done any school work yet. But i want to be strong. Tiredness and and the discomfort that i have shall not stop me from seeking God. He is the source of my strength. I do not want to resent God like why i keep falling sick and things don't seems to get well. I am thankful to Him that He made me realise alot of things i wouldn't have if i didn't go through all these. He is all full of grace and merciful. He made me realise that this world don't revolve around just us alone. The love people showed me really touched me from deep bottom.. There are many many people around us who are in need of help.. but how often do we really give our time.. in midst of such self-centered life.. to be there to help and be their comfort.. Jesus was there for people and not for Himself. It's time to reflect on our life and see how many people have we blessed and helped.. Many times it's these that determine how fruitful and satisfying our life is.. Thank You Jesus.. I shall be more of you and less of myself. I thank all who stood by me.. You all made a significant difference in my life. . Love you all. T_T

Dar dar.. Thank you for staying by my side.. You are more than what i could ever asked for. Thank you dar i love you.. It will all be better. Let's believe together. :)
