// Love like red rockets

So I came to work today and they put me right at the back of the corner of the office. Not a bad spot, since I've got a nice view and a place somewhat all to myself. My old desk was nearest to the door, where I had to acknowledge mailed documents and answer the bell. It wasn't really a bother, but now I don't have to do that anymore haha. Plus, there won't be anyone to sneak up behind me so yay. :D

It's only three more days to Japan. Amidst all the excitement, I just realised yesterday night while packing that I do not have a suitable luggage. Sigh. I dumped all my clothes on my sister's bed, hopefully my mom won't climb up to check these few days till I get a good trolley bag from my aunt. I reallyreallyreallyreallyreallyreally x10000000 hate packing omg.

Suet's leaving for like three different countries and it looks like I'll never see her again so I wrote her hate mail (haha inside joke) and I wanna share something I learnt while looking for a good Bible verse to give her.

"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

- Matthew 6:19-21

Is there really a point to chase after wordly things? Getting into a good university, scoring in tests and exams, getting head-hunted from global companies, earning a six-figure salary, buying that Chanel bag you've always wanted. You'd feel happy and accomplished, and protect that bag, along with everything else you've bought with your hard earned money, with your life.

But how much more you will get from delighting in the Lord! Saving up for God's kingdom by letting go of everything in your life. There's a whole lot to lose. But so much more to gain.

Scholarships, university prestige, career options, job opportunities, branded goods... Life can get really complicated if you allow yourself to take all these factors into consideration to entitle yourself with 'a life worth living'.

So be like David, someone after God's own heart. For if you have Him here in your life, you can go anywhere in the world.
