Monday, March 15, 2010 ( @ 11:18 PM ) and he was telling me of his struggles that he faced in the education system there. but im so glad how ivan has grown! but as we chatted on and caught up, he was sharing with me how he finally perceived life differently. that life is truly, VAIN. vanities of vanities! 'we are always rushing every where. and one day i stopped, paused and noticed. and wondered if this is really what life was about? we rush to wait, and wait to rush. and that is the whole cycle of life here' 'and thats when i really noticed that it was all in vain! and that we were never meant to live like this. truly we are a fallen nation, we are a fallen people. we are a peoples living under a curse. under a curse of sin that can only be lifted on THE DAY.' oh what wonderful fellowship! a sharing of urgencies and of the hope of our Lord Jesus Christ. 0 comments Saturday, March 13, 2010 ( @ 11:57 PM ) and its so good to confirm that we put our faith IN something REAL. basically darwinism and the big bang is being discredited and many scientists, scholars from the big universities have signed and agreement that darwins theory is not a 'truth' but science points to an 'intelligent designer'. after all this struggle, huge debates between creationists and evolutionists, we are about to come to a conclusion very soon that there IS a God. but as the world moves towards a more acceptance that there IS a God a thought struck me. the fact that we are moving towards an acceptance of God, an acknowledgement of a divine designer of the universe, we are in fact setting the stage for the next fulfilment of a prophecy. we are setting a stage for the anti Christ. after all, the anti christ will have the power of the world in his hand and worship will be given to the anti christ, he will be seated on the throne of God. so that was a little thought i got out from the movie cos i watched it before(; i love lee strobel(; also humbled me to know that God does not need our defending(; He is big enough awesome enough smart enough i have an awesome God! 0 comments Tuesday, March 09, 2010 ( @ 7:06 PM ) i was injected twice in my arm and the nurse tried to take blood from arm too. she tried on the left but couldnt find blood so she poked my right arm. but alas, NO BLOOD so she sent me away with 5 swabs on my arms and told me to come back in half an hour. i came back and waited another nurse tried her 'LUCK' with me and poked me in the right arm a few inch away from the first puncture. no blood. so for the last resort they poked me on my left hand. and finally, outflow my blood. i wasnt feeling very good, feeling partially annoyed and partially wingy. but i got over it(; --------------------------------- during ot lectures, the lecturer would display pictures of people who are bed-ridden, people with amputated limbs and so on. and each time the pictures flashed my heart would sink and go out to them. sometimes i feel awkward when i see things like that. my mouth becomes dry and i become scared. a few times into the lecture, i thought i didnt think i could handle it anymore and didnt think that i would be good or strong enough to be an occupational therapist. its still just the beginning but these thoughts do come to mind. but then i have to stop myself and remind myself of the purpose in which i wanted to enter into this study or occupation, to be a light to the world, salt of the earth. to reach out to these people, 1. to let them know that life was more than the flesh. isaiah 40: 6- all flesh is grass, and all its loveliness is like the flower of the field. 7 the grass withers, the flower fades, because the breath of the Lord blows upon it; surely the people are grass. 8 the grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever. this reminds me of the beautiful flower outside of auntie Chris's garden called the 'queen of the night'. it flowers once in a few months and when on that ONE night, it opens softly for a few hours, releases the most beautiful smell, and dies. i missed and i was quite bummed about it but it just brought into reminder how we are compared to flower, to grass. 2. To let them know that they need not fear death, nor that they are crying alone. isaiah 25: 8- He will swallow up death forever, and the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces.' isnt it beautiful? this brought into reminder of last weeks message. on a reminder of our christian faith and WHY we even have faith in this Christ. our faith is in someone who has fulfilled the prophecies of the old testament our faith is in someone who was full of love and light our faith is in someone who died and resurrected. our faith IS in someone who DIED AND ROSE AGAIN. that Christ HAS defeated death and that we need not fear death, and that we can overcome the world. 1 john 5:4- for whatever is born of god overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world-our faith. 5- who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? vs 11- and this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. i pray that the grace of the Lord, He will enable me and use me wherever He leads me. 0 comments Friday, March 05, 2010 ( @ 8:02 PM ) for chinese new year, we did a skit on the chinese zodiac athalie was the mouse and i happen to be the cat. no cat right? its actually cos the mouse pushed the cat off of the ox(enoch-HEH) but josh says that the cat is actually the rabit in the chinese zodiac.

0 comments Tuesday, March 02, 2010 ( @ 11:15 PM ) and then it snowballed from there. i have totally lost my voice and i sound like a man according to my sister. and last night, i couldnt even speak low properly cos my voice kept breaking up and going high and raspy.ARGHHH ---------------------- i have started on uni, in my occupational therapy course and i couldnt be more happy. the definition of occupation is 'activity that occupies human beings' it is very important because it give people a sense of meaning, purpose and usefulness. this also adds on to a persons mental well being and when the occupation is distrupted, it can lead to a loss of all the three feelings above. and so that is when occupational therapy comes in. a rehabilitation programme when a person comes out of a hospital. we make sure that the person leaves the hospital bed and is able to cope with every day life. to be honest, before going into this course,i had a very general and naive understanding of ot. the above description is still very general so here is one case study which helped explain all out for me. there was an 18 year old boy who sustained brain injuries. he wanted to feed himself but his dad complained that it was too messy so insisted to feed him. as occupational therapists, we work with clients to fulfill their goals and so this is when an ot steps in. what should an ot do? after consulting his other therapists,-physio, speech therapists the physio speaks to the dad and brings in the mother. develops the boy on a programme to train his coordination skills with heavier utensils for a better grip and better control and eventually the 18 year old boy got to eat on his own after 6 months! another case was when an overseas student came to australia to study, he developed a rare kidney disorder. both his legs had to be amputated from below and the tip of his fingers and some joints had to be cut off. the student wanted to continue his study and continue to live independently after the operation. so thats when the therapist steps in too. after 3 months of healing, the therapist helps with his hypo/hyper sensitivity in his finger stumps. which means to say, on some finger, he cant feel a thing, while others feel like its on fire everytime it lightly touches something. moreover, the therapist has to find a way to alter the environment to suit his condition. on how to get him to the wheel chair, to the bathroom and so on. in 6-10 months, he learnt to button his shirt, cook and shower. there are many more case studies and each time i hear it, my heart really goes out to the people. to know that i am learning something that might be of help to someone in the future makes me happy. it makes me want to share the love of God with the hurting people, to tell them that they were preserved for a purpose. To not give up and focus on the body, which is a temporal. 2 corinthians 4: 16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal with the cases, i sometimes put myself into their shoes too. to imagine losing every mobile limb, to be restricted physically and be caged in the grief of your mind. sometimes i wonder if i can truly say that too. but to remember that my God is a GOOD God no matter what happens 2 corinthians 12:9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.' and that ultimately my life is lived IN Christ. philipians 1: 20 according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. 21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. a good case study who overcame her disabilities and glorified Christ is a modern heroine named Joni Ericson who became paralyzed from the head down due to a diving ericson when she was 15-6?. she now sells her paintings and is an evangalist for the Lord(: October 10, 2008 In a way I wish I could take to heaven my old, tattered Everest and Jennings wheelchair. I would point to the empty seat and say, "Lord, for decades I was paralyzed in this chair. But it showed me how paralyzed You must have felt to be nailed to Your Cross. My limitations taught me something about the limitations You endured when You laid aside your robes of state and put on the indignity of human flesh." At that point, with my strong and glorified body, I might sit in it, rub the armrests with my hands, look up at Jesus, and add, "The weaker I felt in this chair, the harder I leaned on You. And the harder I leaned, the more I discovered how strong You are. Thank you, Jesus for learning obedience in your suffering...You gave me grace to learn obedience in mine." for more lovely quotes: http://dailychristianquote.com/dcqtada.html its beautiful huh? we can move and we dont need to be on the wheel chairs, so what shall we do with the grace of God? Christ should be my occupation. 0 comments Friday, February 26, 2010 ( @ 11:45 AM ) THIS ONE IS KIMMY haha<3   aww<3>
