My life is overflowing with joy! With so much happening, it's no wonder this place has been stagnant for days. Reflective walk on the journey home today. I felt an overwhelming sense of joy and deep emotion.

Sunday school today. Watching the smiles on 9 little faces brought a grin I couldn't wipe from my face. It was another of those moments where I felt warm and fuzzy inside. Those smiles always the highlight of my week. Despite moments where the boys refuse to listen and I'm annoyed, the kids absolutely make my day. Their childlike faith restoring my own, their blind faith giving me strength to trust in the LORD. The times where they listen with such intent in their little faces and their rapid firing of questions that sometimes leaves me stumped. Today was yet another good lesson, all because HE loves the little children and I am glad to be a vessel for HIS works. A lesson that we show our love and gratitude for HIM by living our lives in testimony of HIS greatness. For HE alone is our strength and our fortress, the rock upon which we stand. In HIS mercy, we are saved, sinners undeserving of all HE has given, to become HIS sheep, to declare ourselves children of HIS kingdom. I am blessed, for HE is love.

CG yesterday saw the start of our lifestyle series. We spoke of defining our lives by our faith, sanctification and in christian unity. During prayer, a dam inside broke and I found myself struggling to be coherent, i was so choked with emotion. I was so so so thankful for the sisterhood that I had been blessed with since I stepped into PSPC, the girls I've grown up with in PLH in and now TCH. In typical SG fashion, or so I was told, my virgin sleepover after CG at Lyd's began with a flick after we had all comfortably snuggled into our PJs. It wasn't so much the show or the junk food that was strewn on the couch but the company of sisters so dear to me that made my night. Amidst squealing and squirming under the blanket, we managed to capture moments of our silliness before we sunk under the covers in preparation for an early morning. Though short, the sleepover was a union of the sisters, something we'd not had much chance to savour beyond sundays due to our ridiculously packed schedules. Thank you LORD for giving me such wonderful fellowship, for our great mentors Uncle Aaron and Auntie Lee Choo who lead by example, for the lovely sisters you've brought into my life to share my walk who I know I can always count on. LORD, give me strength that I may walk each day with a blind faith, courage that I may love as I can and a grateful heart to remind me of YOUR greatness and the one whom you sent to save us all. LORD, for everything and for JESUS, I thank you. In your word I'll trust, in YOUR light I shall trod, in your grace I shall live.
