in every man, there’ll always be a boy
I just switched to the new RM75 per month package, and it rocks! I realize that I get to make much more calls and SMSes this way, by paying a little less than the amount I normally spend on my phone bill. Plus, no access fees! All I pay is RM75 every month. With my Hotlink line, I used to reload close to RM90, sometimes, RM120 a month.
Here’s the screenshot taking from the Maxis website.
So yeah, if you want me to call you more often, switch to Maxis. Hehe.

Ah, was just preparing for worship this Sunday, at the Encounter Retreat that I’m going for. Pastor Julie wanted all of us to go for a retreat and have an encounter with the Lord in that weekend. It’s this Friday till Sunday. Will be away in PD, in that 3 days. They put me on for worship leading on the Sunday morning.. and was just preparing and cracking my brain for songs. Kept a prayerful attitude and songs flowed out! Praise God.
Theme:
God’s presence and holiness in our lives
Songs:
1.
2. God is awesome
3. Let the rain of Your presence
4. Refiner’s Fire
Communion:
It’s Your blood
I’m excited for the weekend. I’m always excited when it’s a time that I can be with people who have the same vision and interest as you have, seek God and spend time soaking in prayer and in His presence. Looking forward to be ministered by God. Not gonna have my phone with me during the day, as to not be distracted. Will check for calls and SMSes at night.
Oh, by the way… I still haven’t started on studying for my test, which is about 12 hours from now. Oh, and I haven’t slept. Maybe I’ll sleep for 8 hours. That leaves me 4 hours to study. Hmm.. washing up and getting lunch. Ooh.. 1.5 hours. That leaves me.. 2.5 hours. Ehehe.
David[wOoohOoo!]
EDIT: Added Danny Chambers’ version of the song “Let the rain of Your presence”. Good song to listen to. Added a lyrics page. When I upload a new song, I’ll post the lyrics so that you can sing to it too!
While people in other parts of the world have their Easter break, I took off for my own break too. Recovered over the weekend through a mamak session, church and also being with my relatives at my aunt’s place in Klang.
Friday
Came home with lunch at 4:30pm, ate and spent some time cleaning up the mess in my room from the project work. Slept from 5:45pm till about 6:30pm, when VictorNg interrupted my sleep. Didn’t really rest well, but took a shower which really freshened me up. Drizzled outside too. Felt comfy and cosy in my room. Was in church for Good Friday service, and came back to Cheras at about 11:30pm. Called PeterMoo and Christine for yumcha. Had a good time, with KinYan and JongChern at the mamaks called NZ all the way in WangsaMaju. Came home late and slept.
Saturday
Waited for my mentee’s call to have bible study with him, but he didn’t get up. Went to church for worship practice after lunch with my housemates. Practiced in Maranatha Hall, as the Healing Service was gonna be there. Had a good time playing. Had to dress formal again, and the vest that I bought a couple of years ago still came in handy. Went back to Cheras, tapau-ed food and spent the night in my room.
Sunday
Got up, packed for one night in Klang and arrived in church late for service. Missed the Easter presentation. Had lunch with AlexChan and VictorNg. Left for Klang after that. Spent the better part of the day watching TV. Man, I miss being brainless in front of the black magic box. Planned to wash my car, but it rained. Had a good dinner, rice and sea cucumber stewed with pork and oor tau eeu. OH YEAH. Slept late after succumbing to the black magic box again. Adding the dish module [ Astro ] does increase it’s power. Mmm…
Monday
Woke up at about 10:30am, had breakfast and washed my car. Cleaned it inside out, and by the time I was done, it was 1:30pm. Had noodles for lunch and left for PJ to get a haircut. It rained, but it’s alright. At least I know that I have washed the car! :) Was back in Cheras at about 4pm, when I took a shower and went for class. Went to Midvalley Megamall with my housemates for the movie “Robots.” Enjoyed the movie and the company. Met an ex-INTI Nilai CFer, who recognized me.. but I couldn’t remember him. He did look familliar though. Met a Kimberly, who’s staying in Singapore now. Had fun entertaining the whole bunch with my zaniness.
Overall, it was a good weekend. Love being able to do the things that I like to do for myself. Of course, kudos to those who were involved in it.
Till the next blog entry,
Davidoff.
Was going through my old album & stumbled upon this picture taken in 2002 *grin*
The good old days of serving together in INTI CF. No points for guessing which one David is :b
Your life has been a great encouragement to us all, althought at times, we fail to express it. Thanks for being you! GOD bless =)
Just me,
~Jess
Was hoping for some strength from encouragement, but alas… it was hard to find..
David[sigh]
PS: Finished my presentation. Done and over with.
EDIT: Aha.. booboo on my side. Changed some options which made all the comments that came after as SPAM. It’s alright now.
… out there. I hope that I can be given the benefit of the doubt. Waiting is the best thing to do, in circumstances like this.
Warmest regards,
David
Past 3 days have been tiring. Somehow, when you’re being drained mentally and emotionally, it affects your physical body. First of all, have been caught up with my group project work. Inevitably, group work always requires a lot of you, when the dateline is near. As much as I would have wanted to prevent it, I can’t because I can’t control my group mates. I thank God though, that they haven’t been a hard bunch to work with. I haven’t been able to lead well, in this group but thank God for His grace. Though my brains shine through, in times of need… but yeah.. like I’ve mentioned earlier… it really taxes you. Sleeping late, bad eating habits, having to deal with personal issues, working hard round the clock the whole day, does leave you with quite a bit of fatigue and eats you up.
Well, I still thank God for His presence. In times like these, I praise God for His faithfulness… because in my busyness, I remember that God is there for me.
Thank You Lord.
David[*tired]
PS: Will be done by tomorrow, 3:30pm. Can’t wait till then.

Verse:
Lord of my life
I love You
Lord of my days
I trust in You
Living beneath the shelter of Your wings
My heart’s safeWhen I am lost
You find me
When I’m in need
You shelter me
Lord of my life
You are my secret placeChorus:
Clothe me
In Your presence Lord
Draw me near to You
All my heart
I long to give to YouLiving to be near You Lord
I long to see Your face
Lord forever You’re
My secret place
Bridge:
You’re my peace
You’re my rest
You’re my secret place
This song has pulled me through the times when I couldn’t find myself. Times when I realize that I was in need and there was no one around to help me up. Times when I felt so alone, and there was no one to reach out my hand to, no one to call, no one to speak to, no one who would just put their arms around me to assure me that I belong to them. God has been there every single time to embrace me in His arms of love. The thought of it just overwhelms. He has never failed to encompass me with His love and His presence.. every time I was in need. Truly, He shall supply all my needs, according to His riches and glory. Even our needs for love.
Lord, I thank You for Your love that surpasses all understanding. Lord, I long to grasp how wide and long and high and deep Your love is, and to know it, that I may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. I may not really understand, Lord.. But well, it doesn’t say “surpasses all understanding” if it ain’t, right? So yeah, thank You for that infinite love. You are awesome. In Jesus name, Amen.
Your child,
David

Hmm… that’s for David Lee. Kinda suitable. Ehehe. I was just reading Psalm 1 the other day. If you read it, you’ll get what I mean.
David[woohoo!]
What’s your definition of a good day?
Is it picking up a RM10 bill on the floor, or being able to spend your time with a loved one or family members? Or having everything on that day go the way you want it to be? I was just pondering over the question above while washing the dishes after dinner. It was at that moment where I just had the feeling of satisfaction, contentment from having a good day. Though I still had work to be done.. but that didn’t stop me from feeling great about the day that passed.
I mentioned that I has a sense of satisfaction, and contentment from having a good day. I feel, for myself… that to truly have a good day, is to be content with the proceedings that has taken place. What does it mean to be content then? Well, I posted about contentment being a great gain a couple of weeks ago.. but that speaks more of the state of contentment rather than the meaning of contentment itself. To me, contentment is to have joy of the Lord in everything. I realize that when we are joyful in everything that we have and do.. it shows that we are contented. Today, I felt contented about my relationship with God. Yes, there are times when we need to be desperate for Him to move in our lives, but there are also days when we just sit at the feet of Jesus and be in His arms of love. I had such a feeling today. That’s why it was a good day.
So, in conclusion..
A good day is a day spent in fellowship with God.
Amen.
David[woohoo!]
PS : These past few weeks has been a time where God’s been challenging my principles, my train of thought, and my stand on things. Not that they have been wrong all these while, therefore needing a knock to set things right.. but I sense that God’s just helping me be sure of myself. I thank God for being the Author and Perfector of my faith. May He work in your life the same way too!
