Long awaited – OC Evening Bowling

Dear boys,

I realised the last post was in July. Long time ago, as I scanned through my pictures, I have so little photos this year, many reasons, H1N1, myself not being able to be around and generally, not too many activities.

Anyway, here’s OC evening bowling pictures. Of which i’m trying to figure out what happened….

Charlie’s 1st Squad Outing

In lieu of H1N1, we had our 1st squad outing… I didnt even know  I had a squad… but Charlie will be priviledged!! hahaha…

It was great time bonding with my squad, though only 1/3 turned up… good choice, Seoul Garden.. wonder if they will bar Babu from going in next time. I think he ATE 3 COWs, 5 CHICKENS that night!!

Surely they are God-sent, to relieve my stress in life and a cure of nicer and stronger abs... hahaa.. it's real fun hanging out with them. Indeed the spirit of Charlie speaks from its squad leader, the spirit of "nonsense"!

Father’s Day

I’ll post more pictures of drill camp soon. But this is something i’ll like to share…

It was Father’s Day during LDC1 and Drill camp.  We were to break camp in the evening, that means not too much time to spend with Dad, the officers wanted to break camp earlier, so that all of you could spend the special day with Dad. However, we had to stick to the original programme and hence left it as it is.

Well, Sir did remind you to wish your dad a Happy Father’s Day. Did you? I guess some of you do have a great relationship with your dad, but perhaps some of you may not share that same bond with your father. Perhaps for some of you, Dad was never in existence, for some of you, Dad was special, but he has left you. Well, we do have our fair share of relationships, good or bad. But whatever the case, family is something we cannot choose. We cannot choose the kind of parents or siblings we want, like the way we choose our friends, however, we can choose the way we treat them.

Well, I never shared a close relationship with my dad. There are many characteristics of him which I dislike. Though I know Dad does love me, perhaps in a way he never showed or did not know how to portray, but it was hard to comprehend and communicate with him. I often thought to myself, if i had my own kids, I’ll never want to be the parents, at least my dad was to me. Perhaps I did not understand him or perhaps he didn’t try hard enough. Sometimes it is hard to love him the way I should. I’m not perfect, and I’m struggling in every aspect to relate and respect the earthly father God has given me.

But whatever I did not find in him, I found in God. Through Jesus, we have access to the holy God whom we could relate to Him as Father.

The bible records for us in Galations 3,

6Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.” 7So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir.”

Well, who is God to you? Is He just someone we go to when we need help or meet a big problem or crisis? To me, He’s God, Master and the perfect father I never had, but now possess forever. He is my King.

Who is God? God is King.

The final result… Well done boys!!!

Our Sec 1 Drill Com champion… guess who?….

Well, under Sir Kian Peng, no mercy…  the boys are visibly terrified.. haha.. well, no sweat boys, there’s still Drill Camp Stage 2

66th BB Coy!!

66th BB Coy!!

Time flies… It’s been 3 years with 66th and I truly loved every minute of it!! It’s never too tough to love all of you. Whether you are big, small, black, white, tall, short, handsome, pimply, loved all of you… I grew a lot just being with you all, learning what it means for God to love me and all of you. God is definitely working in your lives and i’m glad.

Looking through the pictures and each one of you as I upload these pictures, I am again reminded of the times spent with all of you.  I cherish my time here.. I do not know how long the Lord will keep me here, but I am blessed to journey with all of you.

I’m happy that God gave me a chance to love, serve and minister and in the process, be loved, served and ministered. Thank you, Lord!
