Today marks the first year that I have wilfully NOT visited the family temple and graves, for ancestor worship and burning paper money. Last year I thought I’d tag along just to help clean up the weeds and sweep away the dirt on my great-grandparents’ graves. However I soon realised that everyone who was going…
We’re watching the movie, the Amityville Horror, on TV now. My thoughts as the movie progresses: Okay, they move into a cheap house, knowing that people have died in it. What do they expect? Then again, who knows what sort of history any plot of land has had – perhaps, the title deed could indicate…
God has a sense of humour. And matchmaking skills, to boot. A few months ago, a new church mate joined my Bible Studies group. We hadn’t met her before, but a few of us had seen her singing in the choir. She was either referred, or felt drawn to, our group, perhaps because we were…
I went for the Alpha talk at Fullerton Hotel to see Nicky Gumbel. He was good. Funny. Took photos with new phone. Don’t have laptop, so can’t beam it, and am too tired to take out the multimedia card in my phone and connect it to PC, so no photos for now. Realised that if…
Last night, after starting, my computer detected new hardware. Strange, because I hadn’t inserted any. It was my ethernet controller. Hmph, I thought, maybe it was loose and got reconnected again. Anyway, my internet connection was up and I didn’t give it another thought – until this morning, when the hardware in question decided to…
Does this happen to you, too? Your relationship with God is like a cycle. There are periods of intense closeness (highs) – You feel a warmth in your heart, and there’s a bounce in your step. He may even speak to you, as He did to me one and a half years ago with the…
Many people have been asking me about my future in the working world. I hesitate to give definite answers, because there aren’t any yet. There are possibilities, but I do not wish to speak about them at this point in time. As a Christian, I believe that God has a plan for each one of…
So, the battle has begun again. I have reason to believe that we have been followed onto the new premises. Just an hour ago, I put on a Christian music CD. Everyone else was fast asleep in their rooms. My Sony CD player has lasted for twenty years and does not usually stop by itself….
On my way home, I was on the leftmost lane of Zion Road, at the junction of the Blue Cow pub, waiting to turn left. Traffic was heavy and the cars in front of me were edging onward to the junction while the light was still green. Suddenly, I heard a crunching of bumpers. The…
It was raining again, for most of yesterday. And I neglected to buy enough parking coupons to last me the whole day at work – only until lunch time. I picked up some new coupons near the office, but as the rain was still going strong I decided not to brave it back up the…
