This post is actually nothing which is equivalent to something which is actually nothing and sum up the whole nonsense of it...maybe some are not exactly nonsense.

My tangan and otak a bit gatal plus a good sleep I got the whole night and morning due to the heavy rain in the morning, the weather was cool and the sound of the rain were music to my ears and dream. Not very nice dream and yet not that horrible. Who cares....?

There are many activities ahead of me in this remaining month of May and the whole June. Muscles had been aching due to part-time job as "labourer" for almost 3 weeks but the fun was there with some crazy colleagues which included me as well. Then, it's being KP with people's meeting and session and wedding and family and study and exam and holiday and school and camp cum mission and...July...another whole new world of programs.

I'm not being busy...just a filled life which is tiring yet comes in a package of joy, fun and full of satisfaction.

Welcome to my life....of bringing glory unto Him by doing and hopefully finishing the work He had given me to accomplish.

View outside Rumah Chendang...26 doors.

Last weekend, we, 26 of us, drove roughly 5 hours of journey to Ulu Balingian for a mission trip to Rumah Chendang. It was great to be back to a long house after so many years being away from it. I was expecting almost everything I had experienced before except the experience of taking bath in the river and not the bathroom. There's always the 1st time...after a while, we got used to it and in fact, we missed that so much.

Bathing in the river early in the morning...it was cccooolllldd...

This time I was given the responsibility of leading the children ministry...again...haha. I can never run away from it but enjoying every bit of it thought frankly, I was a little tired this trip, so unable to fully concentrate on it. All by His grace, strength and leading. I don't really know what I did.

Me, in the kitchen with the cat...before dinner time...

Another responsibility I can't run away is playing the guitar but thank God this time I was not the song leader....and I enjoyed this the most...music heals my soul...my tired and blur soul and mind. All by His grace and who else if not Him who enable me to do what He wants done.

--------------------------@++@------------------------

I've been saying how exhausted I was the last two weeks and last week, I was at the peak of my exhaustion. A little bit more and I'll be insane...hehe...but hmm, He gave me the strength to move on despite my exhaustion.

So, what were we so busy about???

Experience working as a 'buruh kasar' and I can testify that it's not an easy job though you don't need to use much brain. It's energy straining job. Being under the hot sun, carrying bricks, mixing cement, constructing the ...errr...what do you call 'batas' in English...whatever....that was our job for last 2 weeks...everyday after school, we will work continuously for roughly 3 hours.

Before...

After buckets of sweats... this is what it looks like...

We constructed a total of 5 long batas and 4 square batas.

Su..working with the cement on the bricks...

Work..work..work..

Semuanya dengan gaya masing-masing...
"Semangat Pendidikan Khas"

Made by the hands and hearts of Special Education teachers of SMK St Joseph, Miri.
Not bad right for a non-expert like us?

That is just part of our work outside our room, we did some inside the room job as well. No pictures yet. Soon...I hope. We have few days of rest before work starts again...haha...

Above all, it is still He who enabled it to be done...
All glory and praises be unto Him...

Exhaustively satisfied... =)

Finally, one more program done but I'm in an extreme tiredness...with not much energy left...plus flu and cough.

Tomorrow will start another new day...with more programs to go.

In my zombie mind, I'm writing now....a quick one...with pictures of what's done.

I'm testifying here that I can't do all these with my own weak human strength. A normal body can't do so much continuously. I give all my credit unto Him who is ALL.

It's finally Mother's Day again...

A day to specially show/tell your mother how much you love them....and continue to love and care for them till the next Mother's Day come...

Be grateful for mother that you have because there are many out there who have never seen their mother for some reason and some whom their mothers are not in this world anymore.

Mothers are very special people that God had given us ....

As our Lord Jesus loves His earthly mother, who are we, not to love our mom.

Love them, care for them , value them, respect them, honour them, cover them with prayers, provide for them when they are in need, be patient with them, forgive them....etc

....all especially when they are in their old age when....

"...the sun and the light and the moon and the stars grow dark,
and the clouds return after the rain;
when the keepers of the house tremble,
and the strong men stoop,
when the grinders cease because they are few,
and those looking through the windows grow dim;
when the doors to the street are closed
and the sound of grinding fades;
when men rise up at the sound of birds,
but all their songs grow faint;
when men are afraid of heights
and of the dangers in the streets;
when the almond tree blossoms
and the grasshopper drags himself along
and desire no longer stirred.
...the silver cord is severed
or the golden bowl is broken;
...the pitcher is shattered at the spring,
or the wheel broken at the well....
before the dust returns to the ground it came from,
and the spirit returns to God who gave it"
Ecclesiastes 12:2-7

Thank you, Lord for all the wonderful and beautiful mothers!

It's has been a very hectic weeks for me.

I've been staying back almost everyday after school, a total of roughly 11 hours.

Through the tiredness of my body....(also a sign of getting older...haha...) I've been reflecting.

What a priviledge God has given us, special education teachers at SMK St Joseph, Miri.

Which and what teacher could ever have the chance like we ever have?

We are odd-job workers apart from being a teacher. Name it...what job had we not been doing?

Through my almost 7 years of life here, I've been doing almost all things....accountant, book keeper, nurse, secretary, doctor, clinical psychologist, cleaner, baby sitter, painter, electrician, barber, health inspector, gardener, builder, sports trainer, carpenter, plumber, cook, office boy/girl, counselor, adviser, seller, telephonist, social worker, driver, cement mixer, sweeper, rubbish collector, waiter, artist, designer, tailor, technician, IT "almost" expert, .... etc.

It's been very tiring but with lots of satisfaction and joy. What more could I ask for?

When you know who you are serving, you'll never be tired of serving.

When you know who you are living for, you'll never be tired of living.

When you know who you are doing for, you'll never be tired of doing.

It's all for Him...the Servant-Leader, the life Giver and the All.

All glory be unto Him alone!

I'm unofficially back....with lots of doubts....but I'm back.

I've survived the 29 days of silence. I vowed not to blog which had caused me troubles.

So, what am I doing here? This seem to be part of my "life" here on Earth. Blogging makes me, ME!

It's a place for me to write apart from writing in my diary, my journal and my notebook. Different places to write with different topic and interest.

This is another place of my purpose of life....bringing glory unto Him....to tell the world of all the wonderful things He had done....and how awesome and glorious is He.

I come to realise that this whole life and world is more than just living and surviving. Everything...and I mean EVERYTHING you can think of, it's all about Him, His intention, His desire, His purpose, His creation, His glory, His heart, His mind, His wisdom....ALL is HIM...and HE is ALL!

So, here I am dedicating this very blog unto Him who is ALL...

.... with renewed purpose
.... with old and new style
.... with a different thinking and mindset
.... with a difference....
