Oh, on a lighter note, just want to say thank You for the great time of fellowship with a dear friend, when we went window-shopping last Saturday. Haha... was looking for more work clothes, you know, the G2000 kind. Was a very eye-opening experience, 'cos I didn't know that there were so many kinds of clothing shops. Haha...
And that G2000 in Wisma Atria sells only women's clothing. Wah, paiseh liao. Haha...
Then we went to
Topman, a very funky youth style place. I really felt a decade older than the clothes there!
But Topman has really cool fedora hats... yesterday, I saw Hanes wearing a black fedora hat, just like the ones in Topman.
So asked him, "Is that from Topman?" And he looked surprised in a way that says Wow, cool, how'd you know? :) Hee... i like to think that he was impressed by my 'in' knowledge... LOL.
Window-shopping really can be quite a fun thing actually. Haha... oops am I getting metrosexual already? Haha... nah.. I still have a long way to go, and anyway, as Robert would put it, we geeks have our own social styles. It's a license of sorts I guess. ;D
Anyway, it was a great time of fellowship. :D Learnt some good principles... like, staying up-to-date and relevant on what's going on... e.g. in reading the latest cultural items... Personally, I guess it's quite fun exploring the latest cultural trends :)
Oh yes, helped another friend move her stuff from hall yesterday. We had trouble finding transport, but thank God for Hanes and Huanyan who came. And this time round we managed to get to her place faster and
less dangerously. Not like last year, when poor HY was weaving in and out of the lanes due to confusing directions from us...
Something that touched me a lot was when someone suggested that we all pray first before we drove off from the hostel. Touched, because it showed a childlike trust and dependence on God... committing something even as small and simple as driving back home into God's hands... I really learnt something important from that experience, that nothing is too small to commit into His hands, to trust Him. :) And I think God was very pleased that night, seeing how the Christians love one another, not just in words or tongue, but in actions and truth. :) And it encourages me, because Hanes, a very young Christian, was blessed to be able to see all this first-hand for himself. When you have older Christians showing the powerful love of Christ to one another, and the younger ones see, wow, there is hope for the next generation, because you know that they will know that Christ is real, and that God really is with His people, the Church. :)
Psalm 48:12-13"Walk about Zion, go around her,
count her towers,
consider well her ramparts,
view her citadels,
that you may tell of them to the next generation."These are some of the moments that make me so proud to be a Christian, and of the Church especially. :D
Psalm 48:14"For this God is our God for ever and ever;
he will be our guide even to the end.":D Praise the Lord indeed!
