Weekend in London

The weekend away in London was just what i needed. It's been such a tiring week, both mentally and physically. Although i didn't feel like it was the best time to head to London, God knew better. isn't it amazing how things work out perfectly even when you think it's not going to?

I truly truly treasure the one-on-one times with friends. and i'm just so thankful that God has blessed me with such great friendships.

gingerbread latte with H was great! i love the christmasy feel that gingerbread brings. but more than that, i love spending time with H. it's just nice to have someone i feel absolutely comfortable with, and i always enjoy every conversation we have. I'm so thankful that she's a friend i know i'll be able to count on, even though we don't talk as often as i'd like to. everytime we choose to sit down and chat, i feel like i can open up to her and be honest with her about how i feel. how rare is that nowadaes? hahahah.


Dinner with C was, as always, crazy fun. she's such a dear. =) a <3 to <3 friend i know who's got my back.

spending time with J i think was the most fruitful part of this trip to london. i'm so thankful that i have a brotherly figure like J in my life who's always looking out for me.


as the weekend comes to an end, time to embrace all the work that awaits me. :( but just so that this blog remains a food blog, here's a picture of the sourcream coffee cake (which i made into mini muffins) i made for impact last week. (:

of course, the pretty stand belongs to the church. hahaha. 

Today I attended the baptism teaching at church. I am immensely excited about being baptised. now, to pray.

I love knowing that God planned for it and i love feeling that conviction in my heart. i love knowing for a fact that the God i serve is a living God who loves me and whose plans for me are perfect and pleasing.

This week's verse to memorise, Romans 12:1-2. my current favourite verse. :D

"Therefore i urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of the mind. Then you will be able to test and approve God's will, his good, pleasing and perfect will."






as with all things, commit it to God.
