# Random Thoughts
Was just wondering today, would this ever work out (and would everyone else freak out)
Since most things in a relationship require work, I wonder what would happen if I just decided to get attached to a very simple girl. No big church leader/super-ons Christian. Loves God definitely, is a mature and stable Christian, but pretty much it.
Yup, no need to be loud, sociable, funny, gorgeous with another 15 optional attributes. Just plain and simple. Can click with me, and the rest will be worked out along the way.
Interests, that can (and must) be worked upon together.
Friends, get to know each others' friends (important anyway)
Goals in life, well apart from wanting to have a family, im quite ok with anything (God centered of course)
Looks, just simple and plain. No need for fashion sense, unique style etc (my personal grooming needs the most work anyway)
But really, the thought if she's not a person who's like into sermons and all, not a Hillsong/PS/CCC fan(atic), doesn't aspire to lead in the front lines of church, not a straight As/genius kind, not the most popular/famous person from school. Basically a nobody, or an "anybody" rather.
Will that work?
Probably will talk to Emil about it once he's returned to planet earth (and Sweden in particular) from Cloud 9 :)
(HONEST DISCLAIMER : THIS IS NOT A HINT NOR AN INDICATION I HAVE SOMEONE IN MIND, AND NO, THIS IS NOT REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY EITHER)

# QT - SORAP
One of the rarer type of entries that I post
Scripture : Judges 7v4 But the LORD told Gideon, "There are still too many! Bring them down to the spring, and I will test them to determine who will go with you and who will not."
Observation There were two sets of tests. One where the people could decide on their own if they wanted to go down, and the other God Himself administered the test. As mentioned by Pastor Kong, not everyone who is called will be chosen to serve in the army. There are those who are already warriors, but they choose on their own to sell out. Signing up for the army, geared up for war, but when given the chance to withdraw, they take the chance and escape duty,and so escape the chance for the miraculous. Then there were the remaining 10000. Those who made a decision to be counted in the army, who even with the chance to pull out chose to stay in. But choice isn't enough. God chooses those who He wants to fight for Him. And He chooses the best for the job, the alert and ready. Those God chooses are ready in and out of season. Even when given a break, they were in top behaviour.
Reflection God doesn't test in the much, He tests in the little. In the small things, how I manage my finance, how I use my free time, how I organize my table. He doesn't test how I manage $10000 for a conference, how I plan the entire 6 months of cell or how I organize a ministry. He tests in the everyday things. When I'm able to be excellent in the everyday things, God can entrust to me things everyday.
Application Everyday is a preparation for greater things. Those who wait for great things to happen fail the very test to qualify them for greater things. The Bible says, "For many are called (32000), few are chosen (300)." (Mat 22v14). Champions for Christ Radical for Jesus CHOSEN to Serve
Prayer Lord, thank You for showing me what everyday is about. That in Your army, You choose the best. I may not be the best now, but I know that if I work on it, You will one day be able to include me in Your 300. I want to be in that 300, the number of walking with You. Help me to see opportunities that come dressed as Work (Ps Tan). And when work comes my way, my whining go the other. Help me to be excellent in my work, and attitudes. April 29th, I commit to You, in Jesus' name I pray, amen!

# Quick Update
Marketing on monday went well. Tuesday did not go too well. Busy with lab report and studying for Thursday.
Jaedong beat FanTaSy, oh man! Such a waste after such owning in set 1 and 2. But yeah, Jaedong found his weakness and totally made him pay for it.
Laundry timings running a little off this week due to lack of $0.20 coins...
Need to watch my spending, $80 after 7 days of April. Not looking good! And I owe Gabs $4 since CAC+US
Okie, back to work!

# Morning Prayer
YAY! Went for morning prayer today. Then had breakfast with shaunster, hosea and bert. Then waited for aaron, then had breakfast and did cell report. Listened to a very good build to last sermon 7 by Ps Tan Ye Peng! Inspirational!
Main inspiration - WAKE UP EARLY! BE DILIGENT!
Both VERY hard things to do, but worth it nonetheless! Okie, you guys are gonna start seeing less of me past 12am, and more of me in the morning! It's not just a morning or night person thing. It's a Christian person thing!
YAY! Off to rest before lecture! See you guys at PENTECOST! (Note the spelling pleaseee)
