and i think i'm boring, so if you're bored and you want to laugh at other boring people, welcome. but you don't necessarily have to tell me i'm boring though, *glances at tagboard*. sooooo, let's have a little talk about me.

"Lizards are really really freaky, 'cos they just stay in one corner and stare at you."

About faith.

Have you ever wondered, what faith truly is? What lies behind the definition of a simple virtue, faith. It's actually the belief of something, the fact that you place your trust in something, and place yourself at its mercy, because whether it accomplishes the task that you trust it will accomplish is undefined until it successfully achieves said goal, or fails to do so.

When you say you believe something, you have faith that it's the truth. I believe what you said, is equaled to I have faith in you, that you won't lie to me, and that no woven tales lie behind the scenes. When you say you believe in someone, you have faith that the person is worth your trust. I believe in God, is equaled to I have faith in you Lord, that you exist, that you love me, and that you have forgiven all my sins through Jesus Christ your Son. I have faith, that you won't forsake me, and I place my trust and all I am in you.

Everything in this universe, revolves around faith. A simple caterpillar, "I have faith that I'll grow up to be a beautiful butterfly." You know that for a fact, but I don't think a caterpillar does. It doesn't know from day to day whether it's gonna live or die, but at least, it has faith that if it goes through life without a hitch, it'll be beautiful. Hmm, I don't think I make sense.

A person has to have a lot of faith. In every little thing you try to do, trust is important. Before you make a friend, mutual trust needs to be cultivated. I'm speaking about friends here, not acquaintances. When you make a friend, an unspoken exchange of faith takes place, "I trust that you'll recognise me as somebody you know, communicate with me, and not ignore me like I don't exist, because I do." When you attempt a task, let's say, an examination, you place your faith in yourself, and the teacher who has been educating you, and preparing you for the big test. "I have faith that my teacher has passed all the knowledge I require to complete this exam successfully, and I have faith in myself, that I have revised my work thoroughly and put in an effort to achieve the results I desire. And I have faith that I can complete this paper on time, and finish it with a flourish."

Faith represents the foundation of all things, because if you think about it, faith is kinda equal to belief and trust, and are they not important?

Everybody places expectations on something, or someone. Be it a close friend, a test, their family, each one of us is sure to have held high expectations before. Similarly, for christians, their faith is placed within God's palms. Like mine, for example.

I had a maths test on friday :O *stun*
Was super nervous grr.
'Cos my maths ain't something to look forward to, seriously speaking.
T.T

I was actually expecting something super super difficult, 'cos like, ALGEBRA EQUATIONS?!
*faints*
I don't see the point lor.
SIMULTANEOUS EQUATIONS!?!
SIMPLIFYING, EXPANDING, AND FACTORISING OF ALGEBRAIC EQUATIONS?

oh.my.gosh.

But it turned out alright lehs. Kinda easy even. ;DD
HAH. This shows my maths ain't braindead, yet.
Emphasis on the 'yet' please.

Well, I'm certain I'll pass! (: SEE, I TOLD YOU I'D PASS WITH FLYING COLOURS.
And I will! :D

The test before this one, the one on co-ordinate geometry, which I totally suck at, was !@#$%^&*( but i still passed alrights! Yeah well, even if it was a complete tyco, but still.
It was a miracle can! I passed 'cos I got 7 method marks. 7. SEVEN.

Do y'know why? 'Cos I believed that God will help me pass. ;DD
I betcha think it's cliche. lololol.
But no, it isn't.

Feliciatanweiping told me once,
Even if you're certain you're gonna fail, don't say it out loud. DON'T ever say it out loud.
Because, the devil can't read minds.
But he can hear what you say.
So if he thinks that you're already convinced that you're gonna fail, he's gonna work on that weakness, and truly make you fail.

but.

It makes a difference if you place your trust in Him, our Abba Father.
As they say, "Just do your best, and let God do the rest."
Y'know what, if you think about it, the bible only works, if you have faith.
So what if you've read the bible 1735247492595193 times, but yet don't believe in it?
The bible says, Love the Lord with all your heart, with all your strength, and with all your soul.
But you ask, How can my strength love? How can I love God with all my soul? How do I even do that?
God will reply, Why, child, why are you doubting me?

Nothing is impossible for God.
All you need to do is just, believe.

It's been 4 months and 9 days.

I'm talking about Patchy here.
Yeah I guess most of you forgot about him.

I have no way of seeing him ever again.

Remember I gave him away to this old man, who was the father of my mother's colleague's friend?
He brought Patchy to the SPCA again, 'cos he was too noisy.
& he didn't even inform us.

I believe God was watching over him, 'cos then, this old man met this little girl and her mother, who were intending to adopt a dog, and when they met Patchy, they chose him. I believe that God had sent the two to love Patchy.

But because they're total strangers, I don't know who they are, I can't contact them, I can't ever see Patchy again.

There are some nights I cry, 'cos I'm reminded of him. It's been 5 years and 3 months since the first time I saw him, exactly to this day, the 13th of July, Sunday. He was my birthday gift from my parents on my 9th birthday, in 2003.

I love him. Always did, and always will. Even though I'll never see him again, and have no way of knowing whether he's well, I have faith in the Lord, that He'll protect him and watch over him, and love him as much as I do. God will keep him well, and God will keep him safe. I have faith in Him.

Amen.

I don't need anybody else's love, I just need God's love.

Sorry, but this is a rant.



You guys are my bestest best friends in practically my life of 14 years. I seriously don't know what I'd do without you people. I love you guys a lot a lot a lot. You're like my second family, I tell you things I don't even tell my own family. Judging from the fact that I don't have any siblings, but still. I confide in you guys so much, so much so that I'm kinda surprised at myself, by how much I rely on you people.

I mean, yeah 'cos we're best friends and stuff, we treat each other very casually. Like, we just say things that pop up in our minds no matter how random or dumb they are, like the stupid jokes that I always say that are meant to be funny but I always end up getting dao-ed. I know, that teasing is common amongst friends. But there's a limit to everything.

I know this is going to sound lame and all, but there are some things you guys say that cut deeper than you actually think they will. It hurts, to say the least. And like I've mentioned, there's a limit to everything. As much as I'd love to keep things well between all of us, it's starting to reach a point where I can't really force myself to tolerate things any longer. 'Cos well, I don't feel too good anymore.









Remind me to blog about faith, imma going to sleep, bye.
