Dragon Fruit


Shelley brought a very strange fruit today to work...I never seen it before, it's called "Dragon Fruit"...Love the colour obviously haha....It's pink....Thought to be native to Central America and Mexico, "pitaya" is the Spanish name for this fruit. I taste like kiwi fruit...It's quite a nice fruit....worth to try...

I woke up about 5:30am...quite early as I won't start work till 8am today... After did my daily devotion, I thought it might be nice to do some excercise, so I wore my sneaker and walked around Murdoch Chase area....It was a beautiful morning, it's only 15°C, but I almost gave my mum a panic attack...she was quite panic when she woke up and saw the gate was opened, I wasn't at my room, she tought I might left to work already, but my car was still in the garage...She started calling my mobile, searching for me around the house haha....well...not long after the search I came home with sweat and smile...what a super care mum....=)...

Patience in Prayer



I'm so happy...It's friday already hihi.....that's pics of me with Kailis T-shirt....

Patience in Prayer

When the idea is not right, God says, "NO".
No - when the idea is not the best.
No - when the idea is absolutely wrong.
No - when though it may help you, it would create problems for someone else.

When the time is not right, God says, "SLOW".
What a catastrophe it would be if God answered every prayer at the snap of your fingers.
Do you know what would happen? God would become your servant, not your master. Suddenly God would be working for you instead of you working for God.

When you are not right, God says,"GROW".
The selfish person has to grow in unselfishness.
The cautious person must grow in courage.
The timid person must grow in confidence;
the dominating person must grow in sensitivity.
The critical person must grow in tolerance.
The negative person must grow in positive attitudes.
The pleasure-seeking person must grow in compassion for suffering people.

When everything is all right, God says,"GO".
Then miracles happen: A hopeless alcoholic is set free.
A drug addict finds release.
A doubter becomes a child in his belief.
Diseased tissue responds to treatment, and healing begins.
The door to your dream suddenly swings open and there stands God saying, "GO!".

Remember: God's delays are not God's denials. God's timing is perfect. Patience is what we need in prayer.

....WAITING....



Another working day...This is a photo of me and shelley, she just moved position from being an NPD chef, nowshe's working with me...
She's a very great chef, very organise person and had a great leadership, we have a lot to learn from 1 another....

Well, continue my praying and seeking God about my future direction...After praying and fasting, did some planning ...I still have the 'WAIT' answer....

Hmm...I never really know how hard it is to wait...Until this time...When I can't really see where the road will lead me but I just need to keep trusting Him..And WAIT...

- Better Than I -

I thought I did what's right
I thought I had the answer
I thought I chose the surest road
But that road brought me here

So I put up a fight
And told You how to help me
And just when I had given up
The truth is coming clear

You know...Better Than I
You know...the way
I've let go...the need to know why
'Cause You know Better Than I

If this has been a test
I cannot see the reason
But maybe knowing, I don't know
Is part of getting thru
I try to do what's best
Find faith has made it easy
To see the best thing I can do
Is put my faith in You

I saw one cloud, and thought it was the sky
I saw a bird and thought that I could follow
But it was You who tought them to fly
If I let You reach me...Will You teach me?

Got this song from Yen's blog =) (thanx yen), love this song so much.

I got interview invitation from 4 different food companies in Indo, had been overwhelm me, seems hard to respond...
In one hand I feel that it is time to go back there...to the city where I was born and grew up,
In another hand it's really hard and painful to let go....After being in Perth for 7.5 years...church, friends, work....
One thing in my heart, I really want God's will be done...not my will, not my parents will but His will....
It will be a big decision to make, I really afraid to make mistake,
Lord please show me your way
