special thanks!

This post is dedicated to all excos in PKA 2011/2012 :) do you feel touched or not? hahaha, I want to thank all of you for your patience and love that you've shown towards me for the past semester as I learn (actually still learning haha) how to serve in the leadership team. I know it's hard to tahan someone like me hahahaha so I really thank you for that haha! It has been great and I would say that it's a privilege to be able to work with you guys :) This team has cheered me on when I felt so tired in serving and your heart of service has challenged me to give more to God.


Monica Khoo the President :) Tai Kar Che of PKA :) You've been a real encouragement and role model to me without you knowing. You never fail to look out for others and try your best to include them in the family. If I am really a queen, I would have promoted you to be my General ahhahahah :) You led by example and your actions speak louder than words. May you continue to be a blessing in your church after you graduate :)
Thanks Monica! :)


Melanie Yong the VP. Cat lover *eww* haha You're like the caretaker of this family. Your sincerity and your love towards the juniors compels me to learn how to jaga them and not leave them out. A woman who has a big heart for missions, not forgetting Malaysia! May you continue to use the gift that God has given to you to connect people back to the church and most importantly, back to God :)



Ngoo Sze Jie the treasurer. :) A small size girl with a big heart :) I still remember you woke me up during CPR because of 20 cents! hahahaha It's PKA's blessing to have you to jaga our money :) God sees your faithfulness in the little things that you do and He will surely multiply it :) May you continue to be an architecture student (for now, real architect in the future haha) that builds up the Kingdom of God! :D


Ngoo Sze Min the secretary :) My beloved course mate who is very patient with me HAHA it's great to work with you whether in our assignments or PKA, we need people like you who are into details (Sze Jie too! haha). Thank you for being there to listen to my complaints haha I appreciate your service in PKA, mostly behind the scenes :) How you ran up and down to HEP :), applying for DK/BT, writing minutes.. God sees! :D May Jesus be the only audience in the things that you do and the words that you speak! :)


Joanna Grace Dorai the Cell Group Coordinator :) How come you so pretty one? hahahaa not only that, smart melebih some more! HAHA Thank you for serving alongside with us in the team. Your love for God and your desire in wanting to please Him is something that I want to pick up. I still keep the note that you've written to me and it meant so much :) The dolphin too! HAHA Continue to rock on, Joanna! You're just cool like that :)



Wilbur the Niser. HAHAHAH, just kidding. I mean, Wilbur the Praise & Worship Subcomm leader. Heehee :) The thinker. The melancholy. The analyzer. The Diam-diam-Ubi-Berisi. Thank you for challenging my thoughts with your 'deep' questions, it made me think more :) Thanks for the 'decision' that you've made :) I believe many are blessed by your service. Thank you for tahan-ing me, all the noise haha please don't forget me when you become rich in the corporate world haha. Be salt and light for Jesus wherever you are! :)



Tien Hui the Education Subcomm leader. Why are you so in love with me? ahahhaha Thanks for the things that you've done to strengthen our friendship, i appreciate them :) Your willingness to accept corrections and wanting to improve has challenged me to do the same. I'm glad to have a great friend who teach me how to think more, to be more aware of the things around me and most importantly, to love my very own country :) Continue to berkhidmat untuk negara dan kerajaanNya :p



Stephanie the Prayer Subcomm leader :) You're one of my 'early' friends in PKA :) I'm very glad that God has sent you to me. It's a great blessing to have you as my friend because you are a good friend :) Thanks Steph for the word of encouragement, the prayers (we should pray for each other more often :D, i miss those times! haha) and your listening ears. No matter what you're going to do in the future, God will bless it as you live to honor Him and giving Him the glory He deserves :)


Lum Wai Quan the Follow-Up subcomm leader :) *superman pose* haha Thank you Wai Quan for working so closely with Evangelism subcomm. Thanks for all your support and encouragement. As I serve alongside with you, your service always make me reflect on my attitude when I serve. You always do things behind the scenes and you never complaint about the things that you do for PKA, no matter how small :) that's a very beautiful thing, a heart of a servant. Keep up the good work! :)


Being in the excos team sometimes make me wonder... why God never make me a melancholy? so that I could actually think before I say something..and have the ability to analyze things? or why didn't God make me a phlegmatic? If so, I would probably be more relaxed and not so tensed up? more people-oriented and not so task-oriented?
Why?

So that I can never say I do not need Tien Hui or Wai Quan or whoever.. We are all many parts of one body. My weaknesses could be other people's strengths and their weaknesses could be my strengths. We are not here to disqualify those who are weak. We are here to edify and to complement each other. That's how A BODY should work.

But our bodies have many parts, and God has put each part just where he wants it.
How strange a body would be if it had only one part! Yes, there are many parts, but only one body. The eye can never say to the hand, “I don’t need you.” The head can’t say to the feet, “I don’t need you.” 1 Corinthians 12:18-21


Thanks to all the many parts! :)
