New Year isn’t something I exactly look forward this year. What if they gonna ask the questions again, ‘how’s your studies?’, ‘did you get good results?’ Thank God no one pop that question. So, this year, it was just a session of catching up, being amused at little nephew, eating eating eating and of course the collecting angbao part.
I was especially delighted to meet and catch up with a Christian cousin whom I especially feel connected to. He is one enthusiastic, warm, friendly fellow who recently got married to his girlfriend. Somehow its more than coincidence that we always met each other, be it we used to work at the same location in Science Park, and I bump into him numerous times outside. He is from New Creation church and is serving as the children’s church teacher. I really think it’s a blessing to have this on-fire Christ follower around among the huge midst of relatives I have.
Besides that, I think it’s cool that my closer relatives are all so easy going, down-to-earth and funny. Makes new year much more endurable.
It’s really a small world when I got to know another relative was working at a job agency which I recently went over for an interview. We chatted a bit about the agency, and I got to know the difficulties she faced at work there as well. It seems everyone faced and have their fair share of stress be it at work or at school. I really hate to admit it, but my stress comes from having too much free time on hand, wanting to do something, but stuck.
Perhaps God has a different plan that He wants me to go. As He has promised to be a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path, this I shall believe. But at the same time, will I obey and will I be willing if He reveals?
