My relationship with shavonne

Shavonne's leaving to indo for a few days tomorrow, so I think it's good to make things clear about my relationship with her.

To make you understand, let's imagine this story for a while..

Imagine you have a younger sister in your family. But your family was so poor that your parents had to sell away your sister...

Then 12 years later, you found out where your sister's adopted family are and you found back your sister!

That's how I felt after I got to know shavonne better. Do keep that in mind that this friendship is really birthed out from prayer.

I've been praying for a close-strong-bonding friendship on and off for 2-3 years now, ever since I've became a Christian, cause I don't feel loved in my family.

And it just so that time is so perfect on our side, I wasn't in my good spirits just when I got to know shavonne slightly better. I could still remembered that I really poured out my feelings to her when my grandfather passed away.

I think that's where I really see a sister in her. She was listening. Just listening. All I needed back then was just a listener. So I think since then, I told myself to be there for her if she wants me too.

So yea, we really went through alot together. There were a few times I was really furious at her. But I told myself this, "Come on lah, she's my sister, I should be more loving and understanding towards her."

It has been 6 amazing months of journey.. I'll remember and cherish this beautiful friendship we built. ;)


Think about it... I hope I cleared your doubts..

John 14:14

"If you ask anything in My name, I will do it." ~ Jesus in John 14:14

No, I'm not talking about spiritual things here. I'm talking on the realm of the natural.

Jesus mentions here that if you ask anything in His name, He'll do it for us, out of love.

In John 13:35, Christ mentions that people will know we're Christians by loving people.

But what I'm trying to say here is, how many people or friends are you going to promise? Can you keep it?

So far for me, I've promised one person with this promise, and it's really hard to keep it, of course it's shavonne. =p

I think I didn't really break it, right? I mean, I've really tried my best of my ability to aid her, to be an armour bearer for her, etc etc etc.

It's really, really hard to find someone to get yourself involved this promise, let alone fulfill it. I'm truly blessed for the past 6 months.

I've found the real meaning of friendship, the price of it, the motivation of it. Love as your intention constantly in a friendship is NEVER easy, especially when both of you are sleepy and had a long day, and terrible mood swings..

I've finally understood some of the biblical friendships like David and Jonathan or Paul and Timothy..

I am speechless, it is so amazing that I couldn't believe how blessed I am..

Knowing shavonne at such a level now is so amazing that as though I've found back my sister after went missing for 17 years...

Emerge, Shavonne

Emerge is finally over! 9 sessions, been through all of them is hard enough, let alone serving in the mist of it.

Overall it was awesome, but somewhat I was expecting alot more. I still think last year's emerge is the best to me. I'm not saying Emerge is not good, but I'm expecting something more. lol

You can really see the serving side of the church during this emerge. It's really amazing how much they're willing to sacrifice!!

I've lost my temper a few times during emerge, cause was frustrated over a few little things. But I wanna thank Shavonne for changing my character for the better for the past 6 months..

She forces me to seek perfection on character building and I'm appreciative of what she's doing. ;)

Shavonne, thanks again.. haha..

I must say that I almost always listen to her immediately.. Whether I liked it or not.. No matter how mad I am.. She's the only one on earth so far that have such great influence over me.. haha

You guys know I'm in Strikeforce, right? Whether I see SF members serving Boon in such a great way, I stopped and thought to myself.. Is there anyone who is willing stood by my side?

At first, I thought no one.. But due to recent events, God shown me that person, and that is Shavonne.. I'm really surpised when God shown me the answer..

I knew she's my confidante, my best friend, my sister, but I didn't expect her to move to visit me even though I'm a little troubled..

That's what are friends for, guys! That's what are friends are for...


What would I do without my cute, little princess Shavonne?


Ladies and gentlemen, I've just found the true meaning of friendship through these 6 months.. All these years, I've been searching for a true friend ALL MY LIFE and now she's finally here.. I'm so thankful... I really don't know what to say in order to thank you, Shavonne... ;)
