I found this on Gerah's Wordpress...

During Sunday Service yesterday,

Elder Andrew Goh asked: What do you get for serving God?

I seated up right immediately, anticipating the answer.

And he said, “God”.

You get God when you serve God. At the moment, I was searching for an emotion in my heart to feel. As I walked out of church later on, I repeated the question and answered it as well by myself again. I was still searching for an emotion to feel.

Just before bedtime last night, I was reading my Jodi Picoult book and the question came across my mind again. Again, I answered by myself, “God”. I didn’t need to search for an emotion to feel at that point of time. The feeling was so real, it wasn’t something bad of course. Not good as well. It was the feeling of being set free, like some divine knowledge I just received. I’m not trying to sound comical here, but it’s so real in my life just yesterday that I couldn’t wait to bounce around. POWER. Not that I possessed some magical powers fyi, but that word just struck my mind.

Lets’ not talk about serving…

What do you get for loving God?

You get GOD.

You get NOTHING ELSE, but God in your life.

What an irony, I get nothing else in my life when I love God, but only God ( which is everything ) in my life. Therefore technically speaking, I get EVERYTHING in my Life when I love God.

So many people, across the universe, try to find God. The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. God is a mysterious, but alive one in reality. You won’t get God, till the day you love him. This kind of certainty comes, but once in a lifetime. The certainty that you love God, and now know that he loves you too.

Alright Class...
Who thinks that school is a waste of time, please raise your hand?
Now who feels like quiting school and really go get a life besides studying, please raise your hand?
Thank you for your brutal honesty.

I hope you didnt look stupid raising up your hand in front of the computer screen =)

I met my new Gp teacher today, an undergrad. He believes homework is a stupid system. He said he wont make us do essays cause we do it half heartedly, and it frustrates us, and it would frustrate him when he mark.
He would sit at his desk on saturday, marking crap essays and feeling super frustrated later on as he thinks to himself, why didnt i go clubbing and instead chose to sit here marking crap essays. I cant agree more with his thinking, but i know i put in effort for Gp =)

My classmates were asking to be realsed at 425 instead of 440, Gp teach said he would release us at 430. To my classmate that was only 5 mins difference so he insisted on being released earlier. My Gp teach said, "Come on la, must show face right? Want to break rules, also not break all in one day right? Must break rules bit by bit." Love his thinking. "You first day of class appear in class right, then subsequently you start ponning correct or not?"

Yay Gp will be slack and fun at the same time =)

I asked my new maths teacher, who just graduated from NUS, and specifically told us he was from VJ, a simple question. "Sir, do you know what does Scintillate mean?" He didnt know =)
I wonder how many people across this earth know this word, and see the beauty i see in this word. Nothing against Victorians, but its the only thing he told us about himself, and for just graduating in NUS.
I hope he doesnt live too far. I hope MOE dont torture these poor teachers who live far away in the east, made to come to the north west, just to teach a bunch of kids, cause no other teacher is available to do so.
