This is the condition of my old Bible haha! Except that there aren't that many pen markings all over. Even the cover and some pages of it are damaged and torn. I've changed to a Bible which cover looks like its made from my jeans :)
Looking back, I'm really thankful to God, for his Word really did sustain, guide, provide, refresh, bless, assure etc for me. Verses like Matthew 6:33, 1 John 4:7, Philippians 3:8, Philippians 1:6, Psalms 1:1-3, Romans 12:1-2, 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a, and Romans 8:37-39 and many others really stuck through with me as I delighted more and more on his Word.
Do memorize verses, meditate on them and engrave them in your hearts too. Especially those on God's amazing love, for the HS will speak through u powerfully through them in your daily life!

Also thankful for the presents I've received from my LG, my aunt & my grandma!
From my LG, they gave me a sneakers from Converse, which slogan is "Shoes are boring, wear sneakers!" LOL! & that is true for me as I don't have sneakers previously. The sneakers look good and it just so happened to be the perfect fit for my feet. They also gave me an awesome Chocolate Fudge Cake from Chocolate Origins.
My aunt and grandma gave me a bundle of stuff. My aunt gave me instant noodles, yakult and a shirt. My grandma gave me $200. I appreciate the things from my aunt for it shows her thoughtfulness, and even though she herself is in need, she gave to me. And my grandma's $200 is timely as I've been a little low on cash recently :)
My mum came and connected to the Teachers LG in 2nd service today! She was blessed by the panel sharings during service and the dinner fellowship with the LG. She is coming again next week to join them and may join the Mandarin congregation in the following week! Since next Saturday there is Father's Day service, I hope my dad will come along too! Pray for him to come yeah? :)
And for those of you coming for my 21st tomorrow, see you! :D
