Thinking About My Purpose

Sometimes, I do ask myself...

What's the purpose for me to live?
What's my purpose on earth?
Is it just a place to drop by and leave when the time comes?

I'm a person who doesn't like to read much but somehow today I've decided to take this book out, hoping to find answers in it.

Exactly! WHAT ON EARTH AM I HERE FOR?

Until now, I still can't get a exact answer for this question. Could it be about achieving my goals, fulfilling my dreams? It's all just a guess, and I might be in the wrong path which leads me to a dead end.

"For everything, absolutely everything, above and below, visible and invisible, rank after rank after rank of angels—everything got started in him and finds its purpose in him."
(Collosians 1:16)

Without God, life makes no sense at all. This is a point that we all need to understand. And it's true, as you can see nowadays, people are doing all kinds of funny things such as self-suicide, drugs addiction, getting into trouble...etc. If they knew their purpose for living, do you think all these will happen?

YOU are made by God and for God. God should be the one who decides what you life is going to be. We're able to choose what we want to be, but you can't choose the purpose of your life. God has already planned for each of us. The purpose of our life is just far greater than anything else.

"Focusing on ourselves will never reveal our life's purpose."
It's not about me, it's about Him. We were born by His purpose and for His purpose. It's all started when you have a good relationship with Jesus Christ. Amen!

PS: And yeah, I'm turning 18 tomorrow. Hope it's still not too late to realise my purpose on earth. :)

God Bless!

Deepavali Celebration

~ Happy Deepavali ~

Today...
I was invited by Sanjeet's parents to join them for a Deepavali celebration night. It was held at Eastwood Valley. It's my first time attending an Indian event. Tonight is a special night for me, a night to remember for the rest of my life... Haha...I guess this would be my birthday present since my birthday is 2 days ahead!

Lots of people were there, not only Indians but even other races like Chinese, Malays, ang mo...etc. I was so hyped up, even after I reached home. LOL! It's a blast for me! Forget about the food, it's ok ok only. The real thing was the performance, there were lots of dances. That's what you do when you attend an Indian event - DANCE! They were little kids, teenagers, university students and even adults performing. There were ang mo dancing also. Awesome! The best for me was the dance performed by the Curtin University students. They danced one of my favourite song - Jab We Met - Mauja Hi Mauja

Besides, there was also a Miss Deepavali event. They were so gorgeous in all the different kinds of Indian sari. Even got ang mo participate and they actually look beautiful in sari. Some of them were students from Curtin University too. Seriously, I didn't know there were so many Indians in Curtin until today. LOL!

Talking about lucky draws, I think our table was one of the luckiest. Sanjeet and Aunty Jagjeet got a price each. Hahaha! Aunty Jeet got a voucher to stay over in Dynasty Hotel for a night and Sanjeet got an umbrella and a bag. Guess what bag is it? A Tiger Beer bag. I was like wadda heck, don't they have a nicer bag to give?

I wanted to stay longer to join them dancing but since time is limited, guess it's home sweet home. However, I did enjoyed myself very much. Loving it!

Good Night

I will definitely wanna go for another of these kind of event :P

Psalm 121

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;

8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Amen! He will never let you down even in the darkest moment of your life.

God does things in His own way and there's always be a reason. He gave us obstacles in our life so that we will think. We make mistakes so that we will learn and not to repeat.

When there is no one else, don't forget His presence will be always there.

Seek and you will receive!

Psalm 20

Psalm 20

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

1 May the LORD answer you when you are in distress;
may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

2 May he send you help from the sanctuary
and grant you support from Zion.

3 May he remember all your sacrifices
and accept your burnt offerings.
Selah

4 May he give you the desire of your heart
and make all your plans succeed.

5 We will shout for joy when you are victorious
and will lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May the LORD grant all your requests.

6 Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;
he answers him from his holy heaven
with the saving power of his right hand.

7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

8 They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.

9 O LORD, save the king!
Answer us when we call!

Jeremy and I headed to Ieqa's house for lunch. Over there, I met Aaron, Greg, Lynthia, Joaquina, Bradley and Michelle. Yeah, it's been a while we had not spend time together. We actually had a wonderful time over there, each of us were sharing our own stories. Well...life goes on!

Our journey continue to Iqbal's place. LOL...lots of people were there, it was crowded and most of my juniors were there too! We were actually so full already after eating in Ieqa's place, so just go there sit down and look around.

Oh yeah, not to forget about this!

Our last destination was Luffi's place at Luak Bay, other end of the city. Only Greg, Jeremy, Kim Teck, Bradley and I went there. LOL...we had a great time on the road. Honking all the way! Haha! Some of the RIT A-Levels students were there. I was actually kinda tired already by then, was watching TV at the corner. Kenaina and Michelle Hee came later, they just cant' stop disturbing me. Blablabla...

Around 5.30pm, dropped Kim Teck home, I went home too. After whole day of makan, minum, stomach so big already. So it's time to burn away some calories, I went to the gym with my cousin. After 2 hours of hard work...*Home Sweet Home*

That's all for the day. I don't think I'll be going anywhere tomorrow unless people ajak. So guess I'll be free for tomorrow if nothing happens.
