James 1: 19-27

Listening and Doing
My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires. Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you.

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But the man who looks intently into the perfect llaw that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it- he will be blessed in what he does.

If anyone considers himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless. Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

i received an email today:

"Just want to drop a note to say Mummy Loves you.
Always remembering you in my prayer .. GOD to lead your way and give you wisdom to make all the right choices.
OT will be badly needed in this aging society... before Jodie's dream of having a robotic clone of herself to take care of mummy and daddy during our old age can come true...
......"

it made me laugh AND cry at the same time. hahaha.

hello mummy, daddy, jodie =D

thanks for being there for me the whole time when im happy when im silly when im grumpy when im busy when im lazy when im sleepy.

i love you too <3

one minute im high and the next im all sianned for no reason.
i think i've got bipolar disorder =(

i discovered today that snowpeas grow on the side of the road. i saw them when i was walking home from the city. they look just like the ones we have in jap restaurants.. just a little bit more furry. I also saw many pretty flowers that've woken up from their deep winter slumber. they look so bright and happy and colourful. it's one of the ways that God uses to say 'I love you'. i wonder what other people think when they see them.

nowadays i find it difficult to find things to blog about.
HMM
on the way home with pampam we were talking about how we find it so hard to focus on whatever we were doing and that we'll zone out easily. i dont like it =(
