today is HG

as usual, my gengs took dinner together before going to HG

today's HG is quite different from the HG that prepared by previous HG coordinator

HG for this time do not consider fun and also do not consider not fun

everything start with ice breaker then come up with worship

i guess after worship is message

but what i guess is wrong

after worship is playing games by using our brain

the first game is cutting a piece of paper in circle and around seven can stand in it

the photo below showing how second game move on

then HG end with playing games...

all of you really help me lots
i appreciate it lots
i can say loudly that if i do not appreciate things that all of you did for me
then i really stupid

until i cannot do anything except saying thanks
i cannot remember how five of us can be super best friends

but we can
this shows that God really put us together
i will always remember four of you
i just want to say thank you to

this is what i learned in the previous higher ground which are the factors that influence team motivation....

1.purpose
-a clear purpose,focus or mission being in line with everyone's needs

2.challenge
-the level of difficulty,a periodic stimulation in the form of a worthy challenge

3.camaraderie
-addressing the human needs,frequent praising of each others' contributions,mutual support
and understand them

4.Responsibility
-responsibility and authority to maintain motivation over longer periods of time,can be
demotivating if the consequences of error or failure are too great

5.growth
-moving forward,learning new concepts,adding to their skill base and stretching their minds

6.leadership
-a good leader can be a catalyst in the short term but the best leaders create the conditions
for theteam to motivate itself,understanding their team members have needs

message on 21st of September
hospitality
hospitality is the virtue of caring and sharing.when you have a room in your heart for others,you will find room is your house too...
nowadays people live in an advance world
people travel in planes or drive stay in four or five star hotels
we are in communication by hand phones
everyone in expected to look after herself or himself.
we do not need hospitality anymore or do we??
there is lots of blessings that will be given to us if we practice hospitality

we live in much modernity today,the danger of life and death through travelling are almost negligible.Hospitality today should not be confused with the physical needs of shelter ,food and water.The life and death matters of modern society are more than spiritual today
people nowadays need the bread of truth,the life of water and the shelter of Gods love.

The word hospitality comes from the word "hospice" (a place of healing for the soul)
therefore,when we put aside our personnel agenda,set aside our time and take a cup of coffee or tea and listen to the struggles of a brother or sister who going through hard time.

so,
start doing hospitality...
because what you need is just a heart that cares and the generously that shares...

what you understand by gripping???
Gripping is complaining or grumbling...
most of the people like to gripe...
once they meet problems,they will start to gripe
a rule against gripping is understandable
this will cause discontent,frustration and even rebellion...

while you are gripping,
do you realized that there still got a lots of good things that happen in your life??
people always complaining how pity their life is,how hard their life is
but just looked at the people who stay in a poor country...
what they have is just their own small tiny body...

in conclusion,
when you feel like gripping,
start counting your blessings

rEsPoNsIbIiLitY

responsible is very important...
one of the way to successfulness is responsible
every circumstances,every moment also need responsible...
when you lack of responsibility,
you will not success in everything...

for example,
if you are called to do an event
and because you are not responsible,the project might be gone that easy

if you think you cannot do any project or event,then DO NOT promised that you will do it
because once you did not do it,it is consider irresponsible
if you think that you do not have responsibility
start to practice it from today onwards..

tO-Do lIsT

what is on the to-do list today???
this is the question that i always asked myself everyday...
cleaning out an overstuffed closet??
finish all the notes before exam???
or finish all the homework??
all of us have the things that needed to get done everyday,whether we have written them down or not because they are important for us to accomplish
to-do list is very helpful but another type of list is rather important and valuable:a to be list.
people always say be a successful man is very important but actually
try not to become a man of success,but be a man of value
be a man who full of love,kindness,goodness,gentleness,patient...

in order to finish all the to-do list
,why not from now onward start with "to be" list
it is not what you do but the most important is who you are

finally i can know the step for making choices
today's message is about discovering your purpose..
this topic is like God purposely prepared for me..
because He know what i needed and confused with
it speak into my heart and touch me...
the steps that help me to make the right choice in life is:
1.have close relationship with God
2.put ourselves on 'neutral' gear and wait upon the LOrd
3.ask God for a divine desire
4.seek God for signs
5.seek God for divine timing

finally,i know the purpose of my life and i will start to prepare for it
i know that money,exam and so on is not really important for me...
hope you will also know the purpose of your life

this is the first time i cannot did well in maths....
today is business statistics's examination....
it is almost same as maths and i should be no problem for me
because i got lots of confident in doing maths
besides,i did lots of exercises for this subject
so,i think i can get A's
but it is out of my control..
in the middle of exam,i almost faint and i get confused in all the number
i did wrong solutions for all the questions...
when i wanted to correct it,times up...
haiz...
sad...i really wanted to give up
fainting is out of my control
hope i can pass this subject

People always ask me to introduce myself...
i find it very hard to answer that question because i do not how to describe myself
As usual,i will tell them my name is jasmine
and i just look as normal as other people...
nothing special in me....

the first impression of most of the people toward me is my nose always above my head...
is it true??
am i the person like that???
everyone said i had change....
change in what where???

what i learned is we do not judge others but its cover...
because it might be different from your opinion..
so..
do not give others first impression

everyone in this earth still learning
learning from every area...
at the same time of leaning,we might get in failure...
someone will sad because they fail,but dun depressed because failure bring a lots of advantages to us..
today when i opened up one book,
one sentence in that passage is like talking to me
this sentence is speaking by one speaker to his student
it is written as below
"if i could have one hope for you as you go out into the world,it would be this:I hope you fail.I hope that you fail at something that is important to you."
is true...
most of the successful people climb up from a lots of failure
they learned when they fall down
before discovering the high ground we are looking for,we may need to see failure of the dreams we hold in our heart
Therefore,learn from failure or toy will fail to learn

Life can be as simple as you think..
but also can as difficult as you think
so...
just see how you look at it..
from the front or from behind
for example,
somebody say 'durian' is a super nice food
while at the same time someone will say 'durian' is very smelly
therefore,what you did no matter is correct or false,
just do what you want..
just go ahead..
i simple problem can be solve in a easy way and also a difficult way...
so,will you choose a simple way or a complicated way??
Think of it ^_^v

it is very hard for me to make decision because i seldom make decision
everything was welly prepared by my parent
i don't need to worry so much about those problems in my life
but problems always come to me...
this time i really do not how...
i do not what should i do...
i can't make any decision by myself
i know that once i had make a wrong decision
everything will gone
Human always make their own decisions by following their feelings
it is very dangerous because our feeling might be wrong also..

For example,if a pilot tries to fly by his feelings when an instrument conditions,he will quickly lose control of the plane.Even when flying perfectly straight and level through the clouds,it can begin to feel like the plane is turning.If the pilots fly by his feelings,they will lost control of their planes because they tried to rely on their feelings for guidance.

i know that i should not make any decisions by my own feelings because i might have the same conditions as those pilots
the only way is do not walk by feelings but by faith in the sure testimony of the Word of God.The Word of God always keep me oriented.
But its takes a long time for me to get God's guidance and leading
i can wait for it but who can wait for me??
no one will stopped their footstep in the middle of the road and wait for me to make a simple decisions....
i need to force myself to make decisions but will I make the wrong decision???
Haiz....this question always come to me..
maybe my life fall in love in this question

PrAyEr bEfOr3 ExamInatIoN

since nOw is exam period,
it is also my first time taking exam in college
just pray that i could get better results
i also want to pray for all my friends
hope they will also get better results

Lord,grant to us a quiet heart
before examinations start
Teach us to use our leisure hours
to reinvigorate my powers

Our mind from daydreams liberate
give us the will to concentrate
from all distractions set us free
that in our studies we may be

a student with this sole intent
to make out work a sacrament
from our faint heart in love expel
all failure fears that therein dwell

And from our pillow drive away
all dark forebodings of the day
Help us in faith to rest so deep
that we may have untroubled sleep

While notes and lectures we prepared
may we not lose our zest for prayer
And may we not forget to look
for daily guidance in Thy Book

so may examinations find
each student alert in heart and mind
Thus,inward joy and peace possessing
exam will prove a source of blessing

just hope all of my friends got good results

the second home for me is at KL...
because of study purpose,my friends and I rent one condo and we stay together...
but is not easy to stay together because all of us come from different family background,and also different attitude...
argument is often happen here....
like today....
i just feel that everything can be settle because just a small matter but today i only realized that i can't solve every problem
How??
somehow God help me a lots..
He know what is needed in a house and He know what are the problems...
Through Him everything will be solve...
Every human problem in this world is impossible for men to overcome it only through Him...

misunderstanding often happened...
i always remind myself that do not judge others by our ears or eyes...
because there is always "a story behind the story"....
live in a house is like staying in a family...
true unity is needed
but we will never have true unity until we can see each other with the Lord's eyes,hear each other with His ears,and love each other with His heart....
i will keep all of my housemates in prayer
so that we will love and understand each other welly...
no argument will be occurred..

haiz....
feel bored on exam...
one-third of my life is taken by exam...
school exam...
piano exam...
taekwondo exam....
exam coming in my life all the time

somehow,this is life right???
through exam,i know where is my qualification
no matter how much i don't like the exam...
i still need to study

*study SMART but NOT study HARD*
all the best to all of you who taking exam

tHe sTiNg3r

life always consist of problems...
no matter is heavy or light,most of us still carry our burden everyday..
I always wondering what is the best way to solve all the problems
through advice??through counselor?
i found out that there is some stinger in our life..
-discouragement
everyone get discouraged at times,and it can be for many different reasons.Sometimes,i get
discouragement for no apparent reason.just suddenly feel like got no motivation to do
anything.
-confusion
this confusion is meant to compound our discouragement.Here i can begin to lose my clarity as to what i have been called to do.I can also lose my way to make decision in everything.I'm just
standing in the T-junction who do not which road to take.
-depression
It is an unshakable dread that comes as a results of the combination of discouragement and
confusion.Depress can just come out from my heart,hardly tied up my heart.Feel like crying
but no tears coming out.
But at last i found out a way to solve and overcome my problems.
although it take a long time to know how to solve and overcome the problems but only that way can help me...................is praying.
Through praying,all the discouragement,confusion and depression can only run out from my life.

mOr3 tHaN tHaT

i always ask myself
we born out just to study and exam??
must study hard so that can get a better income???
to get a better life??
then fall in love??
marriage??
and then that's all our life in this earth....
is it that simple???

for me
i feel like there are still got lots of things waiting for us to do other than the things that i listed above
there are so many things that we can do in our life..
such as
helping those who are in needs..
i felt proud for those who used their whole life to help others

i hope that one day i can be that also
