One and a half weeks later

I've been doing the things I dreamt of while in Switzerland. I ate all the awesome Malaysian food that I wanted to, I went to new shopping malls that i've never been to, I bought things i've always wanted to buy, I watched movies and tv shows that i've been missing for the past year or so... not forgetting I've been spending time with the people I loved.

All that in a week and a half since i've been back from Switzerland. Adding in Chinese New Year and I found myself having some of the most eventful days in my life so far. Oh and not to mention having to repurchase my laptop and camera charger, cables etc, since my backpack was stolen the 2nd day I was home. Some fella smashed the right backseat window of my aunt's car while we were at a rest stop at the North South Expressway stealing the backpack thinking I had my laptop or some valuable items in it. Thank Daddy God for His protection as that person left my suitcase which was also in the backseat untouched as it contained my passport, camera and other important items. All that person got away with was chargers, cables, books and underwear.

As a community service reminder to anyone travelling within Malaysia, "Never leave ANYTHING at the backseat of your car unattended, be it valuable or not." , "Laptops, iPods, cell phones and all must be carried along and never left unattended in the car."

All activities aside, i've hardly had time for Daddy God and myself. Everyday was about going somewhere, doing something or being with someone, while thats really really really fun, I just felt weary at the end of the day. Despite doing so much of the things I want to do, it feels like i've not really done anything at all. I sleep late at night hoping that by listening to a sermon or reading some devotionals would do the job but what it really did was only to satisfy my conscience. It felt wrong not spending time with Daddy God so I listened to a sermon or 2 just to make myself feel better. Yet funny how I could go on doing so knowing its not quite right. But no matter cause i'm back home in Ipoh and i'm refreshed after watching Ps Prince's sermon on youtube (Pastor Prince Ministrie's Official Youtube Channel) and reading some really awesome posts on multiply, Misfit Toys from Johnny's site and No New Year on JianZhong's multiply.

All the going places, seeing people, eating things and little sleep have taken its toll on me as i'm now having symptoms of flu and sore throat. Thank Daddy God that Jesus is my Healing and I know i'm already well. I am looking forward to a 'Selah Session' spending some time with myself and Daddy God in the following week and not to mention the Singapore trip end of the month. In a way the past week and a half hasn't been exactly how I thought it would be (oh did I mention I am supposed to be in Thailand on a holiday now?) but I believe Daddy God will make all things well.

Love the song 24 by Switchfoot and somehow could find myself relating to the lyrics. No matter how the day went by, no matter how much or little happened, no matter how things turn out I'm no longer who I am twenty four hours ago, for I know He is working in me.
