This entry has been delayed for quite a while. Back on late Saturday night and down with gastric flu since monday. Never felt so terribly sick before. Feeling lethargic even though I have been sleeping the days away. Loss of appetite, ha maybe it is the bland food. Still recovering..
Anyway, I'm here to give thanks for the trip!! Never felt so blessed and protected before for a holiday. This is especially comforting for me because I was on my first solo trip (without my family that is)..
with Carolyn and Sarah.
As everyone knows, December is a wet weather month. Our first day in Penang was bright and sunny!! Though it did rain (lightly) the next 2 days, we were in the shelter (eg. shopping) when it did.. & it was still largely bright and sunny most of the time for us to do our walking and sightseeing :D
God did not promise that there will be no rain. But when it does, His shelter is guaranteed.
Also, what we thought was a simple dinner with Sarah's friends turned out to be so much more. They were very hospitable and took us around for the good food (eg. a very yummy but isolated seafood place across the bridge from Penang), and even helped us with the buying of
Penang's famous tau sar pia (special request by my mum)
yawn.. wanting to sleep again. I'm improving haha getting tired only after 4 hours now, better than yesterday when I head back to bed after 2 hours of being awake. More penang updates soon when I get the pics from the other cameras and when I recovered.
Shall leave you all with a scenic view from Penang Hill
& a song which we sang on the coach back
with Christ in the vessel
we can smile at the storm
smile at the storm
with Christ in the vessel
we can smile at the storm
as we go sailing home
Back safely we are!! Looking forward to a free and easy trip again.. & they are going to be my schoolmates soon (for further studying) whee :) so exciting
it's okay if you can't see the road ahead, just make sure God is still in sight!!
In His time, in His time,
He makes all things beautful in His time.
Lord, please show me every day,
As You're teaching me Your way,
That You do just what You say, in Your time.
In Your time, in Your time,
You make all things beautiful in Your time.
Lord, my life to You I bring.
May each song I have to sing
Be to You a lovely thing, in Your time.
