TO LOVE OR NOT TO LOVE

I'm scared of falling in love and that's the honest truth. I want to but i'm holding back for just one reason. What should i do from here? Oh Lord, please answer my prayer.

10 WAYS TO WIN HER HEART & KEEP IT

1. Message her good morning, good afternoon, good evening and/or good night, depending on how much credit you have on your mobile. Basically let her know explicitly that you are thinking of her at some stage of the day.
2. Cuddle her heaps and heaps and heaps to show her how much you care.
3. Suprise her with a big something from the back, when she isn't expecting it. Either a kiss or a hug, i dunno...depends on your mood i suppose.
4. Hold her hand when you are with her, alone or with friends.
5. Hold her hand when you are driving...that's if you are skilled enough to drive with one hand, if not i strongly recommend that you drive with two hands. I'm sure she'll understand. But if you can do this, you are really telling her how much you care. Let me tell you guys, in doing this, she feels a sense of feeling security in the car, even though you may be a reckless driver.
6. You don't necessarily have to buy her lots of stuff, just as long as you try and spend quality time with her. Girls in general like to spend quality time with people.
7. Be honest. Girls have a sixth sense when it comes to their boyfriends not telling the truth. So guys, you've been warned.
8. Continue flirting with her, in an appropriate manner that is, even when you are still dating her. Noone said that flirting stops after you've got your girl.
9. If you have to give her a compliment or praise her, do it only when you mean it or when you are sincere. Girls can tell if you are saying it just for the sake of saying something nice.
10. Most importnatly, treat her with the respect she deserves. Every girl's heart is fragile and priceless. Don't play around with it. She is the only ONE in the world. So treat her with care.

I know mine is doing all of the above. Hehhehee....peace dude!

WALKING BY FAITH WITH GRACE

I learnt something today... ... to live with tenacity in every are of life. No matter how hard life is, we've got to learn to just perserve, persist and pull through. Not in a direction-less kind of way. But to push through life's challenges knowing Philippians 4:13 in our hearts that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. And know that God wants us to be conquerors of our challenges. God reminds us in Hebrews 10:39 that "We are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved."

On monday i complained about having monday blues and how it had spoiled my day pretty bad. I'll be honest with you. It wasn't monday's fault. It was nobody's fault to be exact. It was just that after reflecting on a long and tiring weekend and everything that has been happening to me since the start of the year, my heart just couldn't take it anymore. I didn't know what to do with the situation that i was in. Please don't get me wrong. I am not blaming anyone for putting me in this situation. And more importantly i am not regretting my decision to be placed in this situation - no way!! It's just that...i don't know how to say it. But, it was just too much for me and i needed to blame something so i blamed it on monday, just to feel better. *Sorry monday!*

I guess i will just have to be patient, walk in faith with the grace of God and see that miracle come to pass. I've learnt that God is very purposeful in what he does. Don't ask him the 'why' questions cause he knows what He's doing, but ask him the 'how to' questions - how to do life with Him in the midst of all these mess?

Ps. sorry for sounding so disorganised with my thoughts, but that is what it is at the moment. Hehehe...

God bless,
Cheryl

NO MORE MONDAY BLUES...

Last night i wrote an entry entitled MONDAY BLUES. Right after writing that entry, i went to my room and was getting ready for bed and decided to do my quiet time then. And i'm glad i did my quiet time. I just felt like God had taken away all the uneccessary stress and fear that was upon me that day. Here was what He said to me:

Dearest Daughter of mine,
I see and I care. I know, right down to the final num, exactly where you are in life. I know what I am doing. I know the pain of your heart right now. But believe me, I am touched with your situation. And i have a plan. I am working out the details of your deliverance even now. TRUST ME!

And then he led me to read Exodus 6 - a conversation Moses had with God at the time when he was to lead God's people out of Eygpt. God reminded Moses of who He is, "I am the Lord." I guess, after that quiet time with God, when i learn to shut everything out and just focus on Him who sees and cares, the peace and assurance He gives is so real.

Remember this, that when God is at work, suffering, setbacks and hardships may occur. In James 1:2-4, we are encouraged to be happy when difficulties come our way. Problems develop our patience and character by teaching us to: (1) trust God to do what is best for us; (2) look for ways to honor God in our present situation; (3) remember that God will not abandon us and; (4) watch for God's plan for us. When we face great problems, God has an opportunity to exercise His great power...(and i personally told God that this is a great opportunity for him to show His awesome power...coz i know what i'm doing now cannot be done on my own strength)...Big problems put you in a perfect position to watch God give big answers...(and God, I'm watching attentively).

Peace,
Cheryl
