His Plan for me

one morning, while i was browsing thru Google news, a headline caught my eye.

"JAL plans to suspend 50 domestic, international routes in FY 2011."

for that instance, i finally understand God's plan for me.

plus with the news reported in the last few days, had made me aware that JAL is in a really bad shape.

"The airline plans to cut 6,800 jobs by the end of 2011, and aims to eliminate the most routes in its history."

"Japan Airlines May Receive More Aid From Government, Kamei Says"

"Government support may encourage carriers American Airlines, Delta Air Lines Inc. and Air France-KLM to pursue investments in Japan Air."


since young, i had this dream of being a cabin crew. i chose to be part of the JAL team instead of SQ. perhaps of the reason that it's a Japanese airline. i remembered that i sent in my application before i quited my last job. the HR called me a few days later to enquire if i'm only available after 31 Mar (which i stated in my application form). but the lady told me that if it was the case, i could not even participate in their training even if i passed their interview.

at then, i was disappointed & yet elated. disappointed cos the timing wasn't right. elated as at least i was qualified for their interview. shortly, after i left my last job, i was being recruited into a reputable German MNC which i never dreamt that i could work there.

soon after my new job started, the economy took a drastic downturn. firms around the globe are badly hit. news of airlines started cutting down their flights soon sets in. it was then i felt that i'm really lucky. imagine i was being recruited & a newbie in JAL. even i was not being recruited in the end, i might be still swimming around.


i really thank God that he intervened. He knew that i wanted to be a cabin crew. He knew that i will not give up trying (unless i get a satisfied answer)

Hence, in order to convince me that He had already had better plans :

A phonecall from JAL to let me knew i'm actually qualified for the interview but had gave up due to wrong timing. a job at MNC with no political battle which matched my expected salary.

and now i finally UNDERSTOOD. just as the bible stated:

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope."
(Jeremiah 29:11)

"A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps."
(Proverbs 16:9)

Its time to question & seek

Since I’m not good at having a conversation on this topic, aft much pondering, I decided to continue with this blog to share abt Christ.
Perhaps I’m afraid of rejection. Though I dunno how many ppl will read, but I know there will be readers.

Many ppl hv this mis-conception that I became a Christian because of hjp. Yes, he did play a small part but it’s all up to me to believe in the gospel. Frankly speaking, I was so sickened by his comments on the other religions in the first place. I found that he was too straightforward & harsh. Nevertheless, it did not turn me away from Christianity. For a start, I used to wonder about several issues such as:

1. how true can the gospel be?

2. if there is One & Only God exist, how abt the others?

3. if the other Gods do exist, wouldn’t the heaven be very lively? Then who will be the God of the Gods (since they are so many)?

4. how abt free-thinkers? When they died, where will they go?

5. speaking in the Chinese context, why do we so afraid of the hungry ghost festival while the Indians/ malays/ ang mos seem to be unaffected? When is true for one, it should be true for all.

6. the common qn which many would ask but unable to find the ans: which of the following comes 1st? chicken or egg? Many thought it is an irrelevant qn, but seriously, one of them hv to come 1st rite? Anyway I found my ans. Have you?

7. have you wonder why is there always supply of food to feed the growing population??

There were so many other qns which I used to think.. perhaps you can start to seek for ans of any 3 of the questions abv to see if you really can find answers which truly satisfy you.

i'm back

after disppearing for half a year, i'm finally back to blogging about Him & me again.


all thanks to His blessings, i'm able to start & complete my honours degree, though there was much curse and swears along the way.


mood was rather bad when i need to be back in the office doing some stuff.

however, something caught my attention while on the way home and it brightens up my day a little.

here it is.



his creation.

the colour of the sky was sooo pretty and i couldn't help smiling.


caught Evan Almightly on one of the weekdays.
i would say its much better than Bruce Almighty.
better storyline i guess.


went back to church as promised.
i hope i will hold on to this promise.

The One

went to a just one production @ wesley yesterday.
the topic was about love.

everyone yearns to find their "one".
some even hope that his/her one will die for him/her (guess i watched too much tv).

in the mortal world context, its very unlikely.
cos humans are selfish.

however, there is only one person who loves us so deep that have died to atone our sins.

Ghost Rider



caught the movie - Ghost Rider on the 3rd day of CNY.
the title did not appeal to me though.

it was on the exchange between the Devil and Johnny Blaze.
as expected, the Devil only wanted the soul of Johnny to help him to get things done.

the ending was not the one i desired.
when the movie was coming to an end, i was expecting that johnny would use his faith of God to triumph over evil.

however, obviously it did not.
such movies would not reflected how great the creator of heaven and earth.
it only showed how great the Devil is and which is obviously untrue.

Faith . Hope . Love . Peace . Joy

an idea struck me while i was bathing.
wouldn't it be great if i had a blog which records my walk with HIM.

after which, it left lingering in my mind.
and i thought to myself, why not?

to remind me that He is always with me =)
