I went to have a drink after work with 12 other colleagues, went to Night Noodle Market @ Hyde Park and then ended by a nice desserts at the Shangri-La Hotel... It was a good number ei hahaha I love it when a lot of people turned up to my event :P lol
There was a good food month deal where you can spend $20 to get 3 types of desserts and a glass of dessert wine/cognac.. I chose a dessert wine for sure.. it was soo good :) but it was too little to last :(
It was a happy ending but it really kills me... I wore high heels today and I walked soo far from Suncorp to Hyde Park and back to Shangri-La :( mannnnn I organised this thing but I ended up being the last person to turn up :S sooo embarrassing hurhurhurhur... and if you look at my feet now, they look disgusting coz it's red everywhere :(
I hope everyone enjoyed it coz I did :) Gnite peoples...
Along life's road There will be sunshine and rain Roses and thorns, laughter and pain And 'cross the miles You will face mountains so steep Deserts so long and valleys so deep Sometimes the Journey's gentle Sometimes the cold winds blow But I want you to remember I want you to know
(Chorus) (Chorus) You will never walk alone As long as you have faith Jesus will be right beside you all the way And you may feel you're far from home But home is where He is And He'll be there down every road You will never walk alone
never, no never
The path will wind And you will find wonders and fears Labors of love and a few falling tears Across the years There will be some twists and turns Mistakes to make and lessons to learn Sometimes the journey's gentle Sometimes the cold winds blow But I want you to remember wherever you may go
(Repeat Chorus)
Jesus knows your joy, Jesus knows your need He will go the distance with you faithfully
I watched a great concert yesterday... it was by Chris Tomlin's Passion band whose aim is to make Jesus name famous in our generation... and I really need to say this...he did his job really well :)
2 Corinthians 5:21 "God made Him (Jesus) who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God"
check this out...
I love this song: How Great is Our God...
To give you a little background, that was my first praise & worship concert I've ever attended... I came from a Catholic family background and I was baptised since I was really young... I normally go to church every Sunday and I've always had my faith in God... I just wasn't someone who likes to listen to gospel music and I'd probably go to church for the sake of fulfilling my duty being a good Catholic...
My life was pretty decent...so it's not that I came from a broken family that would put me into a really bad life... but I wasn't that happy before... I always felt that I'm lacking in something... like I haven't achieved anything... I always wanted more and more and I barely can say to myself "You've done a great job Deb!"
Just last year I was always touched when I listened to the songs sung in my local church... it made me want to be involved more in their local community... but I was never able to attend to one of their bible study or I wasn't brave enough to commit... Yes, I was still with my x bf at that time... I also studied part time at uni and did full time work... it might actually scare me a little bit.. so I ignored that feeling...
After coming back from my 3mths holiday, I came to Sydney and I thought well I have no bf anymore (since we broke up last year) and I only have work to focus on... I started to think that I needed to contribute back to my society or at least share the talents that God has given me with the people around me...
Then I met my friend who just migrated to Sydney and he told me I would always be welcome if I want to join this church community... And since then, I tried to give more of my time for God and try to know Him better... I tried to change the way I used to be and try to be the person He would like me to be...
Sorry if my story is a little off topic here but I'd like to share a bit of my life story... I'm not a good story teller but what I'm trying to say is that God has changed me little by little... I could see the difference between my old and new life... I've been happier and appreciate my life more than before... I believe that He would give what I asked at the right time...
I still don't know what I wanna be in my life... but I know that I want to be happy and by appreciating every little gift in your life and being thankful for that little thing that happened in our life, we would feel happier in our lives...
That was my little background why I started to be involved more in a church community... hehe
Anyway... I honestly still think I'm too far from being a good person... But when I think God has given A LOT to me, I think I should always try hard to be a better person every day and try to please Him :)
