Jeremiah 29:11-14
11 For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome. 12 Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you. 13 Then you will seek Me, inquire for, and require Me[ as a vital necessity] and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. a 14 I will be found by you, says the Lord,......
It was only today I realized how important it is to fully trust that God has a good plan for me. For it is only with that belief I can come to God with full confidence to ask of him. I have mental assent that God only plans the best for me but deep down I know I do not trust Him fully. That's why I am so reserved in giving God my all and myself.
That has to change. I will sit on these verses till they really sink in......

God's Been Good
Was thinking a little of late. God's been good to me in the area of finance. I have never been rich but I can't remember occasions where I have lacked. Of course it would be nice to be able to afford a car but for now, it's not quite justifiable. Thus I conclude God has been good and faithful...... ;)

There's Something So So Wrong With Me
I do not know what's gottten into me of late but I seem to have lost all motivation for the gym. I have been consistently "gymming" for the last 2 years at least. It seems that about 2 weeks ago, I just started feeling like skipping gym. Really weird. What's going on?

Lifegroup Last Night
It's funny how I have been writing a fair bit about lifegroup lately. As usual, I was not keen in going last night so I had to drag myself there. As usual I had no regrets turning up. My leader's wife Dawn was leading the session and I always enjoy listening to her. The way she explains things just make sense. The teaching session ended early and so she opened up the session for sharing. She then specifically requested to pray for four people there and I was one of them.
When it came to my turn to be prayed for, a number of people had words of encouragement for me. Guess I needed the most help. ;) Then Dawn did something quite unexpected. She got the four of us to stand in the middle of the group and told us that the whole lifegroup loves us and accepts us even if we are rotten. Felt quite encouraged. Guess this might be a place I can really sink my roots in. In fact, I would be meeting up with my leader and Dawn mid October. Let's see what comes out from that......
