update on my stories of life in Aussie land

I'd like to take this time just share to everyone onto more serious stuff. Recently, I post some interesting & also some funny stuff. But there are somethings in me that I would like to express rather than just keep it mounting inside of me....

All the time during my stay in Adelaide, I always think bout home(Miri), and of course EYM....coz EYM is where I grew in my spiritual life....My body is in Adelaide but my heart is still in Miri....when I came to think of it, It actually took me some courage to study very far away from home.....some people say Im going to very far away to study....when u ask where are they going? Some might answer KL, Labuan, Singapore, Perak, Selangor etc....well I understand their feelings when it comes to their very first time of leaving home.....feeling emotional, but when I think of it, those places I mentioned isn't far.....coz its still in Malaysia or juz outside Malaysia...like from Miri to KL is not far...juz a 2 hours direct flight....unlike me....Miri to Adelaide takes about 8-9 hours journey on the aircraft excluding transit. If u include transit, it will take u bout 2 days to arrive at ur destination.....and furthermore, Adelaide is at South Australia and u can imagine how big is the whole Australia.....I do have connections in Australia.....I just realised tat we have a group of EYM boys scattered around Australia....In Perth(Matthew Tsen, Maxwin, Hywell), In Sydney(Gabriel Tsen) In Adelaide(Darren a.k.a Myself)...but I believed has a purpose for us in Australia...it's like EYM sending out some of their members to Australia from Miri for God's purpose..hehe...


Im staying in Hostel now....,..doing nursing course....the hostel that Im staying is also a place for an accomodation for any international students to stay...that includes none nursing students or students who are studying in universtity like uniSA (University of South Australia), University of Adelaide and also international students who studying in High School....the hostel has 2 blocks....I juz realised tat there are only 2 none chinese staying in my block but Im the only nursing student who is none chinese staying in tat entire block.....most of my free time I juz stay in my own room and juz do my own thing....sometimes you feel like u wana hang wif them but u felt like tat u are kinda left out coz they only speak their own language among themselves(feel like an alien)but they are still nice people.....tats why I felt homesick...but at least church friends tat help me settle down...like wat I mentioned in my previous post: I played paintball wif them, they were teasing me together wif Ps Micheal Raj...HAHAH!!! I oways love those moment...very supportive...

Last 2 sundays one of our dear church pastor, Ps Matt Heins preached on the topic "IF ONLY" taken from somewhere in the Gospel of John....sometimes ppl regret of wat had happened by saying "If only I did tat, this won't have to happen".....but God actually wants a breakthrough to him.....so why dont juz give ur needs to God....he knows all bout u....juz give everything to him in a humble manner.....DON'T PRETEND TAT THIS THING AREN'T AFFECTING YOU!!!! you've been invited to the cross to tell Christ bout ur needs.....I actually felt tat way too.....but I will still stand strong..

Now tat Im in Australia, life is different, leaving in the wat I can say western culture...and suddenly I recalled the message preached by our youth pastor, Ps Rowly......he said tat people may say "Why go to church? It's insensible" but one thing I wana tell u tat it's a wise decision tat u have made.......people may say tat "Church friends are juz church friends". But to me, they're more than juz church friends.....they're my brothers and sisters in Christ.....I mean, so what?? If other wana say tat to u, juz let them say watever they want.....coz u have made the decision to stand for Christ.....I may not memorized every single details in the Bible but one day I'll try to do it......but at least I the useful messages mentioned in it....wats the point of being a Christian juz go to church on sunday, for youth meeting, and also for cell group but u dont be a Christian on the other days when ur at school.??? But now I felt tat Im bout to go to the next level....God allows to go through some circumstances because he wants us to be like him.....there's actually one more thing tat I wana say it out from my heart but now its nearly 1 am Adelaide time....

SO I"LL CONTINUE IN THE NEXT POST...


GOD BLESS.....
