Joycelyn Blog

By now,I am sure everyone knows about the "change" i mentioned before.
Appearance is the visible changes but it involves some "inner" changes too which make me a "newer" person.
Today everyone should be having Monday Blues but i feel so happy although i was pretty busy.Happy because i am still alive,still healthy,still having my job,have new hair style….and….meeting a "new" friend.(do i need reasons to be happy????…just be cheerful la…hehehe.)
It’s nice to have a good friend to chat with.Although i quote him as "new" friend but while we chat, i feel like i was talking with an "old" friend or schoolmate.that’s great!Real friend should be this way right?
Today is really a good day for me.Some other good comments gathered about my changes,meeting good friend,had good meal……AARRGGGHHH….forgot to take the picture of the steak that i ate.ohhh…..the food is really nice…yummy…
Some may say,life is tough and it’s not easy to live happily…..well,sometimes it is more about our attitude towards life,the mind set that we have,from which angle we choose to look at it?When you get all these right,you will see the beauty of this world.After all it is "I"or "ME" that matters.
I still remember how i get my christian name,Joycelyn.I used to be a cheerful girl who never has worries(according to my mum).In fact,i worry about many things(sometimes is unnecessary worries) but good thing I’ll be happy very easily because I know God loves me.He will take away my worries n sadness.The short form for Joycelyn is Joyce.I told my mum that i was and will continue to be a joyful person and bring joy to friends that surrounded me.
All these years i may have forgotten what i want to do and i lost focus.God has given to me something but I hold it too tightly until God decided to take it back.I was reminded,"You will be able to receive blessings from God only if you are willing to let go things that you hold too tightly".When we come to God with an empty hand,we are able to receive more blessings from God.
Friends,be a cheerful person as you may not know how influential you are to others.
A CHEERFUL HEART A DAY KEEPS DOCTORS AWAY—-my new quote.hahaha…….
Enjoy your life and live it to the fullest as God will guide you through with His plan in you.

Received this forwarded email from a friend.Enjoy the story.

At sea and only two of the men on it were able to swim to a small Desert like island. The two survivors, not knowing what else to do, agree that they had no other recourse but to pray to God.However, to find out whose prayer was more  powerful, they agreed to  divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island.

The first thing they prayed for was food.The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the land, and he was able to  eat its fruit.The other man’s parcel of land  remained barren.

After a week, the first man was lonely and he decided to pray for a wife.The next day, another ship was wrecked, and  the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the land.On the other side of the island, there was nothing.Soon the first man prayed for a house, clothes, more food.The next day, like magic, all of these were given to him.However, the second man still had nothing.
Finally, the first man prayed for a ship, so that he and his wife could leave the island.In the morning, he found  a ship docked at his side of the island.The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island.He considered the other man unworthy to receive God’s blessings, since none of his  prayers had been answered.

As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven booming,

"Why are you leaving your companion on the island?"

"My blessings are mine alone, since I was the one who prayed for them," the first man answered.
"His prayers were  all unanswered and so he does not deserve anything."

"You are mistaken!" the voice rebuked him."He had only one prayer, which I answered.If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings."

"Tell me," the first man asked the voice, "what did he pray for that I should owe him anything?"
"He prayed that all your prayers be answered." For all we know, our blessings are not the  fruits of our prayers
alone, but those of another praying for us.When Jesus died on the cross he was thinking of you!
