[the above picture was taken during our YLG06 small group farewell supper with Sate and nice drinks Thanks to our Mentor John Bond] I’m still recovering physically and to some degree emotionally from last week’s intense series of events, opportunities, ups as well as downs. Overall, a lot of decent surprises. There’s a lot of…

[this cool bike above is at the lobby of the resort we are in] There’s a sudden feeling of “networking” overload right now which makes me need some “unload” time right now. Thus, random thoughts return. I’m glad I’m here … at Port Dickson. I’m sensing a kind of leading of some sort. Now it’s…

I enjoyed the meatballs and chips at Ikea tonight. A bunch of us formerly know as “crazies” now “sinners anonymous” or “sinonymous” transformed the table for food into a table of fellowship and faith. It’s wonderful when someone introduces you as “my pastor” – something “good” happens for me when those words are uttered. I’m…

Elysia surprises me daily with a new antics … Gareth makes me smile with his growing maturity. May Chin has been cooking some yummy dishes lately. Potato dishes 🙂 Writing devotions based on the Psalms 51-72 has been rewarding but extremely challenging with I get into the more angry, no holds-barred laments. I need to…

I will “overcome” – and persevere 😛 Glad to manage to delegate through email some stuff which needs to be shared. Today was supposed to be a Sabbath … most of it was. 🙂 Good to spend some time with close ones. I’ve been eating crabs for two weeks (or more precisely in the span…

The images coming out of Lebanon is distrubing. I’m praying. I’m trying to understand what is going on. I don’t want to be indifferent. I need wisdom. I hope to engage in conversations that would contribute to “peace” even though I’m not directly able to affect change. But then again, whatever good change whether it’s…

It was good to reach the MV Doulos (picture above) around 10am today at Port Klang. Bumped into a lot of familiar faces and old friends. My favorite part were getting some books for very good prices like Colin Gunton’s Act and Being for RM8. I thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour of the ship with…

I realized I haven’t blogged much content apart from linking to others partly because I have been spending some time replying the conversations on a couple of email groups I’m on. I’ll pick out some random statements and post them below. “… Faith is as our response to Christ is first and foremost, trust (a…

I was a little surprised and feel supported by the comments on my post Random Thoughts before taking a bath Perhaps I’m getting back into blogging rhythm. I was wondering should I write more. do I have anything to say? or more precisely – anything worth saying? A full day for me today. Lectio Divina….
