Our God Is An Awesome God!

Awesome God! Now that's gonna be my personal theme song!
Amazing! Almightly! Glorious! Extraordinary! Loving! Terrific! Illustrious! Magnificent! Wonderful! Majestic! AhHhh he's just more den words can describe!

For awhile now I've been feeling rather dry spiritually. Well here's what happened, after MPM I moved to LDM and I'm still kinda adjusting, but I do still go back to MPM cos the sessions are open to even non-members.

Feeling the common complain of my peers about 'I feel so old' I'm begining to worry about how involve can I really be? After my left shoulder operation, I missed a few MPM sessions and began drifting a lil from community prayer. Hence when I went back yesterday I just had a great urge to Praise & Worship aloud again.

Irritably, as much as I could sing aloud I was only able to raise my left arm to shoulder height. However, as we went deeper and deeper into prayer, I begun to gradually feel the presence of the holy spirit and I was reminded 'Nothing can stop you from praising God'. Hence, I attempted to raise my left up to praise. And amazingly I DID! At the very moment, I was in total awe and begun to burst into tears of joy.

After that incident, my shoulder did not totally heal yet, but I can raise my arm up to praise. And with every person I testify the incident to, I am able to raise my arm higher and higher.

What more? I've not gone for even a single physiotherapy session since my operation.

Now that's how great God is!

Blessed be God, Blessed by God

Well, one really common question people have been asking me recently is none other than "What happened to your arm?". And after sharing my ever so often repeated account of the incident, it's funny looking at how people squash up their face in disgust with the "eEe!" exclaimation to go with it. Haha

I mean hey.. chill guys and girls, it really isn't as bad as it seems heh.
Well for the benefit of those who do not already know about the operation I just had on my shoulder (And of course so I do not need to invest on a tape recorder) I'll explain breifly what happened.

In Dec 2005, I slipped an fell into a pool and pull a mucsle in my shoulder, yes you heard it right 2005.. a darn long time ago. =P

Initially I didn't borther about it because it just "snaps" occasionally. It hurts but it doesn't affect a whole lot of my lifestyle and stuff. However, in May 06 I sprained my finger. I went to see the Medical Officer hoping he'd do something about my finger and I just 'sun pian' told him about my shoulder and flatfoot.

Hence the many follow ups, from the army medical center to SGH, to physio, to X-rays, to MRI scan and then... OP on 29 March 2007. May 06 to Mar 07 damn long right? I agree man! Ineffiency to the MAX!

But here's the catch. On April 2nd my camp turned into a Stay-In camp. In other words no more Fall-out timing at 5.30pm. The only time we get to go home is friday evening and gotta Book-In on Sunday evening. Thankfully, I am currently on MC from 29th March to only God know when I'll recover. Usually people who go for OP will be out of action for mths. And.. NO I DID NOT PLAN TO "CHAO KENG" HOR =P

I must admit tho, ever since I stopped studying I really miss holidays.

Thank You Lord for this blessed break!
