On hindsight, I realise goodness came out of the previous hectic year. So hectic and busy it was considering that I only had one goal in my mind; That is to do things that is born out of silence. It worked, many things were done and they are all meaningful and special. 2005 will truly be a year I will not forget. It was also a year we trusted the Lord the most as a family as well...(especially in the area of finance)

I feel so blessed the past few days, birthday gifts continued to be passed to me. I mean its almost more than a week since I celebrated my birthday and its amazing that the Lord continued to bless. It feels like God has forgotten to turned off the tap. I've received a new bible last Friday, (Something really special cos I've worn out I should say my 4th or 5th one already, sadly due to poor maintenance than intensive usage). I got a birthday song and an ang pow today. I didn't expect them at all. Birthdays are not often a special thing for me. I think these presents are truly a blessing because I'm contented with none and do not depend on them for happiness. With these things, more than its given me 'stuff', it has given me the assurance of the love of God, His care and providence. And the people and community that He builds around me is nothing short of amazing.

I truly praise God for his grace & mercy,... I usually don't use that cliche much but i use it today because there's no better way to say thanks to a wonderful God.
