2010

2010 is a year where I gained many experiences and full of activities.

1st month of 2010, it was already the start of a challenging year with changes in my work environment. I didn't understand why the good ones were taken away and left all the 'below the water' to myself. What have I done wrong? Frankly, I was not ready to let go the success and to start all over again. Left with no choice, I moved on with a grudge.

Months passed. God never fails to remember what was disturbing me. When I looked back e past few months and the progress of my portfolios, they amazed me. A brother then shared with me that perhaps, this arrangement was purposely made as such for me. I must recognised and focus on the +ve side ie to instill re-building skills. Don't hold on to what I have lost, but what I can gain. I begun to understand.

In that 1st quarter, not only did God open my eyes on re-building skills, I also learned the power of prayer especially from my family members. I have the tendency of being shy to ask my own mom to pray for me. Probably, I was not comfortable in telling her what I wanted or my problems. Something prompted my heart. My mom has been praying for others. Why do I need to choose who to pray for me but rather to trust and be glad that I have my mom to pray for me ie her daughter?! And I finally did asked mom to pray. God never fails. He heard and He provided! Halleluja...

If you have read my blog earlier, I was even called to court. Once again, I learned patient and God will know what's best for us and when will be the perfect timing! I am so glad 2010 has brought a sweet end to this case.

I made many travels in 2010. All journeys made whether they were for my work or for leisure, I thanked God for them. I was able to learn, to share, to capture the sweet memories, to experience etc. These will be the treasures in my heart which I will be carrying throughout my lifetime.

As for my spiritual walk, 2010 is a year which I have to stop being a 'baby'. I grew up and did away the 'milk' to take on 'solid food'. To share His goodness is wonderful. To witness the 'seed' which I have been sowing to become a 'sprout', is breath-taking! Aside from this, I was assigned a new task in my church. A task which I never thought I could. Lo and behold in 2010, He said "It's time". I took up the task and I must confess that when God claimed that you are ready, He will be with you and ensure you will not run dry! After a few tries, I thought of giving up the task and eventho I knew God has been equipping me. I did not think I was ready and was not comfortable. To challenge God it rather a stupid move. For some dads, when a child is ready to give up, either dad will agree or dad will scold the child for being weak or dad will try his best to convince the child. For our Father in Heaven, He made every tries to be better and better and made sure I am being informed - until there is no way for me to say, "I am not ready!" He is an awesome God that many times, you can never able to predict His move.

For 2010, it is or going to be 'was' a year that it is hard to forget. I will carry all the good memories, good experiences, lessons learned to cross over to 2011. I shall leave behind the 'chains and anchors' that hold me down. Thank you, Lord for 2010...2011, here I come!
