______________________________

so tired! been busy the past few days with by bro's wedding which was yesterday... it was quite tiring la. but overall it was still fun.
started off around nine in the morn with me and my bro sending a mers off to capitol building to get it decorated for e wedding car. must say the decos are pretty solid... and the woman who did it was q pro! twisting and tying with great skill... oh well shu nen shen qiao i suppose... oh yea and the mers e240 is damn cool... its like super professional and has all this pwnage stuff...
anyway then drove the car to e hotel. woah. pan pac owns all hotels i've ever stayed in before man. i mean there's some major amount of nice marble tiling, glass, smooth wood, and so on... its really the lap of luxury... and the service is really ownz... apparently the 33rd and 34th floor have this butler who knows all the guests by name and face... and he serves them free food from this pacific lounge which is open 24 hours a day... oh yea and the rooms all have bath salts and all that gg stuff... i must say i would definitely love to stay in Pan pac sometime...
after that was the actual wedding ceremony. quote of the day comes from pastor tom chandler... cause like my bro's a doc and so is his wife... so according to pastor chandler, their a "paradox"... gg lameness... especially from a pastor...anyway the ceremony itself was pretty good... yea after that there was reception with these ownage plates... they have holes in them built for putting ur cups and cutlery... and its all synchronized... so u hold ur cup, food and cutlery all in 1 plate... must say that's some interesting effieciency, though it does come at the expense of the amount of food you can put on ur plate.. something always very impt to me...
yea then it was the tea ceremony time. argh i missed the first one running errands for my bro. apparently best man equates errand man. haha. the second one was q good, and all that... but yea. fell aslp then cause i was already q tired.
but later on we had dinner. it was q fun... though for a 10 course dinner i was quite unfulfilled... not that it mattered cause i tried 9 kinds of drink! and i think that was like nearly all of it...
lets see. that would be coke, sprite, tonic water, ginger ale, mirinda orange, shandy, beer, red wine and white wine... must say white wine owns... tho i think i got a little dizzy after all that stuff.... darn i think my tolerance must have gone down after a long dry spell after thailand.... not that it matters. yea so by the time the dinner ended it was like 12 already! after that we had to help my bro pack up, and all that... so i ended up getting back at 1 am... therefore today we all decided to go 2nd service and wake up late.... good since i felt more refereshed after waking up at 10... though i heard that the first service had screwed up projection cause i wasn't there... blah... well at least they now know its not that easy to do all of that stuff...
anyway. today's service was somehow better than usual. i don't know, sometimes i feel that going to church is a kind of routine, but today i felt as if god was trying to speak to me, either by the songs or by the message....
yea and the message today was good. it was like "what friends can do" on the bulletin, so i thought it might be about how to be a good neighbour and all that, but it turned out that Rev Shen preached on how jesus was our friend. yea that's quite some food for thought... he forgave our sins by shedding his blood... what other friend would do that? and the key line was that, when we walk around with our friends and run into some pple whom our friends are not acquainted with, we introduce our friends to each other.... so if you walk into some of your friends who do not know jesus, wouldn't you introduce this very special friend of yours? that really got me thinking... i suppose we go along, have fun, and so on, but we neglect the real fact, that if we don't act fast, some of our friends will face a christless eternity... and how we act affects how they perceive us...
yea. i suppose its time to be more loving and all. times pass fast, things go by, but the LORD remains unchanged and eternal. I'd like to close with this meaningful song.

People to people

How do you share the love of Jesus with a lonely man.
How do you tell a hungry man about the bread of life.
How do you tell a thirsty man about the living water of the Lord.
How do you tell him of His word.

Chorus:

People who know go to people who need to know Jesus
People who love go to people alone without Jesus
For there are people who need to see, people who need to love,
People who need to know God's redeeming love.
People who see go to those who are blind without Jesus
And this is People to People, yes, People to People all sharing
Together God's love.

How do you tell a dying man about eternal life.
How do you tell an orphan child about the Father's love.
How do you tell a man who's poor about the wondrous riches of the Lord.
How do you tell him of His word.

Chorus:

People who know go to people who need to know Jesus
People who love go to people alone without Jesus
For there are people who need to see, people who need to love,
People who need to know God's redeeming love.
People who see go to those who are blind without Jesus
And this is People to People, yes, People to People all sharing
Together God's love.

How do you tell a loveless world that God himself is love.
How do you tell a man who's down to lift his eyes above.
How do you tell a bleeding man about the healing power of the Lord.
How do you tell him of His word.

Chorus:

People who know go to people who need to know Jesus
People who love go to people alone without Jesus
For there are people who need to see, people who need to love,
People who need to know God's redeeming love.
People who see go to those who are blind without Jesus
And this is People to People, yes, People to People all sharing
Together God's love.
