Reading about the tribute and the life of Ted Kennedy who just passed on in Time.com

"The work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die."
— Addressing the Democratic National Convention in New York City on Aug. 12, 1980, just months after his bid for the presidency ended in failure

"Integrity is the lifeblood of democracy. Deceit is a poison in its veins."
— Condemning President George W. Bush's actions leading to the war in Iraq in a speech given at the Brookings Institute in Washington on April 5, 2004

"We know the future will outlast all of us, but I believe that all of us will live on in the future we make."
— Speaking at Harvard on Dec. 1, 2008, upon being conferred with an honorary degree from the university; Kennedy had been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor six months earlier

Who am I , That You would know me from the start, Set me apart

2009-10-22T01:26:00.005+08:00

SCHOOL! it's been hard. still hard. haha
CHURCH! it rocks! and literally too, when we have our praise and worship! haha

3 long nights of staying up late to complete projects... 1 night to take a break after having a project meeting until 10.30pm just now! Int Econs presentation tmr... we're gonna OWN it la. can one! I enjoy working in every single one of my project groups! Moreover this sem i'm taking some classes with hogc pple which makes it even more EXCITING! Totally ROCKS man!
.. and I'm really excited to reach out all over again, be a soul-winner! TAKING the SMU-zies!

At some point of my life, I find myself asking myself "who am I exactly and what am I supposed to be doing?"
In school, in church, in the family, I find myself doubting saying "who am I to do this?", "Who am I to make a comment?", "Who am I to dream big?"

Just now I was watching the news munching over the home-cooked dinner kept for me by my lovely mother... I saw a sneak preview of the upcoming universal studios in the Singapore IR.. the rides and games, the aesthetics, the infrastructure and oceanarium. wow...
I'm so excited.!

One of my dreams - to set up / manage / bring in the first indoor theme park in Singapore. It'll be explosive, thrilling, family-based, affordable, modeled after the Lotte World in Korea! But it'll be different from it... Many plans, thoughts in my mind. Hope i can get an intern in Sentosa!!!! My 2nd best after SMU started rejected applications of some of us applying to intern in church...

But more than that, who am i?

I googled "Who am I"

& ... I found some riddles! & blog entries. Some of the riddles are quite good.

"I have a hundred legs, but cannot stand. I have a long neck, but no head. I cannot see, but I'm neat and tidy as can be. Who am I?"

a Broom.

"I know what my job is, The point has been made. You say I have a big head, And you're right, I'm afraid. So put me in my place, And then leave me alone. What I need most, Is someone to drive me home." Who am i?

Nail.

"You heard me before, Yet you hear me again. Then I die, 'Til you call me again' What am I?"

Echo.

hahaha.. all of us have our characteristics, our style... our different dreams and aspirations, different things that drive us to desperation as well as motivate us and spur us forth! Pastor Lia on the weekend casually said this as she introduced Pastor Kong to the pulpit... that Pastor Kong had answered 2 very important questions for Pastor How and Lia, which is "who are they" and "where are they going from here".

I sat there impacted. I began to recall the time before I rose up to be a CGL, Dominic took a group of abt 8-10 pple and that very meeting at Singpost, Coffee and toast, he went through every single of us, described who we are exactly, what are our strengths, as well as the downfall of our strengths which is our weakness or potential weaknesses.

So clearly, i remembered that entire session. I always thought I knew myself well, but my leaders knew me even better. Bible says God knows us much more than we know ourselves, and truly, in hogc, not just God, but my amazing pastors and leaders know me much more than I know myself.

Never regretted a moment of coming back to God, never regretted a moment of giving my life to Jesus, never regretted a moment after making a decision to be committed and to serve God with the best years of my life!

So Who are u?

well, Who am I?

I know who I am :) Happy to be who I am, and I'm on my way to do many many things.. many great things! For I know i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!

love this song..

One Life One Love ~ CHC

Who am I
That You would know me from the start
Set me apart

Who am I
That You would place eternity
Into my heart

You have given to me
More than this world could give
My purpose is found in You

One life, I lay at Your altar
One love, I have with You
Touch me again
Fill me as You hold
My outstretched hands
One word, You know I will follow
One heart, broken to You
Use me again
Your mercies follow me
For all my days

In Your presence
In Your power
Holy Spirit, I surrender

Help me to let Your love show, to let Your love flow, so all the people know

2009-10-04T03:29:00.004+08:00

When I get troubled, with thoughts and problems throbbing in my mind and finding solutions for them... I realize the more I think about it, the more upset and troubled I get. & the more upset and irritated I get, the less likely I'll find a solution...

So I'll do something else to distract my brain from getting irritated.

I tried sitting front of the TV watching shows after shows until late into the night, yet really, nothing much feels better. I just feel more tired and then fall asleep!

Tried youtubing, well, somewhat entertaining, but still it's killing time until i feel tired then I go sleep.

Tried lying on the bed, closing my eyes and taking moments to "escape." haha, it's quite good, but when you inevitably have to wake up to (ahem, like take out contact lenses, bathe, change and wash up), it feels roughly the same.

Some others go clubbing to let the loud musics and bright lights drown out the irritation and troubles. But heard from many, it just doesn't work.. really.

BUT ... I found READING is the solution.!

I love reading my bible. I love reading Christian books or Christian leadership books. They elevate my thinking, bringing my only-human brain, thoughts, perspectives out of my own well. So many times they help change my perspective of problems, and gives me inspiration for the solutions; They let me find and remind me of God's principles and promises, to cling on to again like never before.

Then I come back and on my knees, in prayer, surrendering to God that He is greater and that He help me and give me strength to accomplish and fulfill, to expand and grow, to love and meet needs.. a new peace and joy.

So tonight, I'm lifting myself up :)

Help me.. to stand up each day, to walk in Your way, to read Your word and pray
Help me.. to fight a good fight, to stay in the Light, to praise You day and night
Help me to not just survive, to be so alive, smiling on the inside
Help me to let Your love show, to let Your love flow, so all the people know
(Song by C3, Help me)

Problems > not there to stumble and overcome you, it's to strengthen u..
What does not destroy you, makes u stronger.

STRENGTHEN!

Before I end off, I need to say that WE HAD A GREAT SERVICE with PASTOR HOW TODAY about why we give! Talked about the 6 reasons why we should not give and 6 reasons why we should give. AWESOME Word! Excited to give to God next week!! PLEDGE DAY! :)

Twenty-Four ~ Switchfoot

Twenty-four oceans
Twenty-four skies
Twenty-four failures
And twenty-four tries
Twenty-four finds me
In twenty-fourth place
With twenty-four drop outs
At the end of the day

Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit,
take me up in arms with You'
And I'm not who I thought I was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit,
take me up in arms with You'

There's twenty-four reasons
To admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses
Still twenty-four strong

See, I'm not copping out
Not copping out
Not copping out
When you're raising the dead in me

Oh, oh
I am the second man
Oh, oh
I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man now
And you're raising these...

Twenty-four voices
With twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies
In twenty-four parts
But I want to be one today
Centered and true
I'm singing 'Spirit take me up in arms with You'
You're raising the dead in me

Oh, oh
I am the second man
Oh, oh
I am the second man now
Oh
I am the second man now
And you're raising the dead in me
Yeah

I wanna see miracles
To see the world change
Wrestled the angel for more than a name
For more than a feeling
For more than a cause
I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
And you're raising the dead in me

Twenty-four oceans
With twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies
With twenty-four parts
Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit,
take me up in arms with You'
I'm not copping out
Not copping out

Attitudes are choices we make with the heart

2009-09-16T03:44:00.004+08:00

Read something I found worth me blogging it out. 5years down the road when I look through my blog post, I believe it would impact me again just as how it has impacted me now

HUMILITY knows we need God! (say 'I need You God')
HUMILITY knows we need others (say 'I need other people')
HUMILITY recognizes how great we are not (say 'Lord, You've done it all')
HUMILITY admits out own shortcomings and congratulates others on their successes
HUMILITY serves others we consider our equal or less
HUMILITY waits patiently (say 'I am patient')
HUMILITY restrains anger (say 'I forgive everyone who has ever offended me')
HUMILITY is not announcing our own achievements
HUMILITY prefers others
HUMILITY is not something that is given to us; it is something we do to ourselves.

James 4:10
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up

God would rather not humble us. Cause He has called us to do it to ourselves

Another quote which impacted me tonight

"Attitudes are choices we make with the heart" ~Phil Pringle

Humility is a spirit, an attitude.

Yes! I'm so glad at some point in my life, I chose to guard my heart, to have a humble attitude, to obey and submit and be teachable to the Pastoral leadership above me. Our personal level of teachability = our level of humility.

wow. I think I really started to grow when I started to take every opportunity to learn from my leaders seriously! I started to know more as I took every opportunity to learn or pick up something I do not have expertise in from the people around me!

A great Attitude- I choose you!

Lastly, tmr's gonna be a great day. Looked through my readings for class. I feel prepared to conquer class and project mtg tmr! haha Gdnight!

P.S. I love you, mum

2009-08-24T04:03:00.001+08:00

Ever encountered situations where you and somebody have a riff, misunderstanding, argument, then both kinda get upset? and then later, they just try to avoid each other or avoid talking to each other or the topic and get on with life, yet the sting of the incident is still there, issue unresolved?

Yeah, just happened to me hours ago. Mum is superbly angry cause I was on the phone for a conference and she wanted my attention due to her, such that when she talks, we reply immediately and listen. I would love to do that, however I was in an important conference. I signaled to her, sorry, pls wait. Then came the barrage of issues, hurtful words.

Anyway, I was kind of frustrated and after putting down the phone, decide to resolve this my-mum-is-upset-with-her-children-for-not-caring-abt-her thing by apologizing and explaining to her properly. Apologize that I did not give her the due respect, but explain that I was on an important phone call and her questions is those I can answer her after the phone call.
Like e.g., if she was on an important phone call, yet I went up to her and asked her how her baking class went and did it go well etc! But she kind of ignored me and continued talking on the phone, and I stormed away saying my mum doesn't care about me when I tried to care for her. It's quite unreasonable right? It's not true my mum don't care for me, but she's busy with something else at that moment and my questions are not really super urgent...

Then again, when the roles from the analogy are switched around, it's then controversial to some extent.

Anyway, she wanted me to do some chores like deliver clothes, ask me if I have bought my books for my modules, and that's abt all. haha. However, I did not get to talk to her and resolve it. She decided to sleep, or feign sleep when I walked into her room.

haha. mums are interesting la.
So anyway, since things are like that, I went on with my next conference lo!

And now.. I'm thinking what I should do...
1. Get on with life, when I face her tmr then explain?
2. Continue feeling upset that she didn't understand and avoid her? avoid the topic?
3. Do something tonight, now, directly. and all that I intended to do just now for resolving

AND I decided. I'm writing my mum a letter now. hahaha! May sound queer... but we need to communicate! I think I have somehow hurt my mum, and she's someone I love, and I don't want to end up withdrawing away from her. I want to go upfront and make sure my relationship with her is great.

So Here i go.... with... the mighty pen and paper. :)

This is my home :)

2009-08-22T02:24:00.007+08:00

Happenings for today:

Met Lawrence Adijanto after a way long long time. haha. Had lunch together with him and Glenn Tay! Great meet-up and catching up. Met Jia Long as well.

Then Hui Neng's birthday. Met for dinner @ Clark Quay.
Happy 21st bday!

Off to airport to pick FIFI and the rest of the leaders who went to Gold Coast from the airport! yay! So happy that Fifi's back!

Thoughts:

After moving in to the new house in Happy Avenue, I realise I never really talked much about it.

Basically every night, when I walk down the lane towards my house, the lush trees, the starry sky, but more than anything, as I wriggle my keys out of my bag, to unlock that aluminum gate, no matter how heavy my heart would be before that, I'd somehow feel better already.

Moving towards the wooden door, click and stairs up to my room.

When I get home, one aplenty with aluminum and glass structures, I just feel comfortable, feel smiley to be back.

This land and house was bought by my parents almost 7 years ago and for the past 7 years just thinking back, the money issues that came along with this house, the debts and expensive yearly land taxes, the quarrels that resulted, the pressure to sell this land at a great loss to get by, the helplessness, the disillusion and the just get-by-with-life first. Later, the initial stage where my dad said he's gonna start building the house, the uncertainty that we have over designing and really setting up the new place, then comes the feeling that something is really going to happen, the plans for something bigger, the excitement of new furniture, & bigger possibilities, the shifting, missing the old place and into the new place, familiarizing ourselves with the new environment... a new place called home.

Gone through so much just to get here, to this place called home @ Happy Avenue North. My dad worked so hard, racked his brains, spent so much effort to build up this lovely house. My mum, though not the most encouraging, but always supports practically in ways to get this house up.

I never had this feeling for my previous house in Serangoon...and I believe it's because I didn't get to see and understand what my parents went through for it. I just live through it.

But there's another house which I feel this way, and that is my spiritual home. I only saw it through from FTMS to Singpost... and what I have witnessed and understand are probably mini bits of what my Pastors and leaders and the church sacrificed and went through to have what we have today. I don't want to live through Heart of God Church and take it for granted.

It's always a privilege to step into church, into this place on the weekdays and weekends, to return home. I return home with a heart of gladness. And if I need a reason to smile for each day... this is one of my reasons... knowing this is also my home :)

That is why I'm so looking forward and excited about the 10th Anniversary Service.!

I can't wait to know and see and hear and feel it all for myself how this home was built, brick by brick, prayer by prayer, conquering problem after problem, winning people one by one. I missed being part of the Henderson generation... but I will never miss this chance to be connected to our beginnings.

This is my home :)

All of my life in every season, You are still God

2009-08-09T01:16:00.004+08:00

Today, had a great service w Pastor How! & Pastor Lia led worship!

so amazing.. just felt the presence of God so strongly. During ministry as Pastor How was praying for the adults or G zone people, I just couldn't stop praying in the Spirit.. I just prayed and prayed, letting my spirit inside take over. Felt so awesome to just engage God for who He is, sinking myself in waves of His mighty presence as I pray.

Love this song.. Desert Song (by Hillsongs)

Some of the best lyrics and a song for this season of my life.

This is my prayer in the desert
And all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in the hunger in me
My God is a God who provides

And this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flames

And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon forged against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

And this is my prayer in the battle
And triumph is still on it's way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand

All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship

This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow

Now is usually where the going just gets tough.. we get tired, burnt out by the things of life, for those in Poly, the project-presentation deadlines and upcoming exams, those in JC and secondary, A and O levels, Uni is starting, biddings and all that school admin stuff, for some, bad things and problems seem to continually pop up and as we pray, just seem like there's no light or victory for it. Those in ministry and or pastorally fighting fire and conquering grounds, it gets tiring after a while, but as we sow, we'll reap.

But hang in there. Trust in God.. Don't end up mindlessly blame Him for our problems. Strengthen ourselves in God. Fri night, had a great meeting with Fifi to just pray and rest in God, strengthen ourselves in the Lord.

Matthew 11
²⁸"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. ²⁹ Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. ³⁰ For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

:) Loved my quiet time with God, a simple half an hour, reading the bible, knowing more about the nature of God and just letting the Word of God speak to me, where logos becomes rhema.

Strengthening..

True Worshippers & Sidney Mohede

I'm excited for CG tmr! Heart of God Church... is my home.

Unleash the Next Generation!

2009-08-03T14:50:00.002+08:00

Fri night FOP's been amazing. Heart of God Church, our Pastors, our youths, our production team, standing and showing what youths can do with God and for God! Unleashing potential, unleashing the next generation!

Pastor How's sermon on Sat just resonated in me. The Next Generation is always wanting to be Bigger! What is a normal life to our parents when they were young - living in an ATAP House, is not normal for us today. Most of us at least live in a HDB Flat today with sturdy walls and structure when we are born. What is not normal to our parents is their lives today, yet they compare it to their times. We can be bigger as we work hard towards it.

Sunday over lunch with my family, my mum started to talk about jobs and how I should have cherished and grabbed the job offer at her company $6/hour, to pack books which happened 2 years ago when i was waiting for Uni. haa indeed it's a pretty ok job but I'm seriously just gonna rot there n moreover under my mum's supervision, so I refused it all the way. My bro told my mum that the job would be a waste of my time and talents because I'm an undergraduate and totally be unsatisfying! My mum talked her stand... Civil servants kinda just have a happy-with-my-lot mindset sadly. So immediately the situation just CLICKED with Sat's sermon! I shared my heart out man.. haha

My bro is going for an intern at Vietnam this Sept and he's currently studying in Temasek Poly. My mum's just feeling abit unsafe that he's going overseas and don't get the point of him doing this. He chose not to just take some boring office-job intern in Singapore cause he wants to learn stuff.. So he's risking it, venturing out gg to Vietnam, getting new ideas and experience from a hotel-management view there. I told my mum, our generation wants to do things bigger and differently.. we want to conquer the world, thats why my brother's going out to do all these things and I'm just behind him all the way! But 1 day, I hope he'll come to know God and this year when my bday comes and he comes for service (him coming is my bday gift!), he'll encounter God the way i did too.. Cos the greatest experience and wisdom can be found not only in travelling around the world but in simple ordinary places like heart of god church but w extrodinary presence and Word of God.

Ain't want no sugar-daddy

2009-07-31T02:23:00.003+08:00

Lots of stuff going on these few days. Yet as I take some time to chill and think, things began to have a different perspective and I feel my spirits lifted!

Just this Wed and Thurs were really not the best of days..

ON WED whilst on my way to church in the morning, I forgetfully alighted the bus without my laptop. The moment I alighted, I remembered but the bus began to drive off. I chased the bus for 1 bus-stop but as that bus-stop had no passengers alighting or boarding, the bus simply drove through and drove off. Hence my chase was unsuccessful and I stood there at a loss. I then hurried to church for NG meeting at 10am which I eventually came and realise I got the timing wrong!

haa, what a bad morning. I called and also went down to Eunos Interchange to report loss..

And the reason why I brought my laptop was because I was going to buy a new adaptor and hence the laptop is to test it out. Yet cause of the loss, my plans for the afternoon were cancelled.

Despite all that, I had a great CG that evening!

ON THURS, had a great breakfast with Wee Fong, went for a job interview, then church for captains' ball n tuition. In the midst of it, I got a call from Eunos Interchange saying they found a laptop simiar to my description. However I need to bring proof that it belongs to me. I must admit I was semi-disheartened cos it meant I would probably not get a new laptop anytime soon, yet I was overjoyed cause I'm getting back few hundred dollars worth of asset!

After all that, on the bus home, I realised my hp was nowhere to be found.! I alighted and traced my way back to church and asked some church friends to call my hp. It was on engaged tone. I knew it's stolen and probably gone already. I was really anxious and upset that at such a crucial time it had to get stolen... it is going to be so troublesome and tmr is FOP..! Thinking about the hassle and the cost of my hp and all.. grrr...

During such a moment, Darryl Seah, he offered and lent me his other line to use for the meantime. I am so grateful man!

So I came home, lethargic and pretty upset. But after a shower and some good thinking, I was alright.

I began to think to myself ... Sometimes I really wished God is a sugar-daddy, so that I can enjoy great things, dun have to worry about hps, have multiple laptops and lots of money to spend. And when i lose a item, sugar daddy God will immediately get me a new one just to make me happy.

The Holy Spirit replied my thought! haha saying "God He can certainly do that, but He's not like that and certainly not a sugar-daddy cos it's pampering and letting the girl get her way, but a good heavenly father chastens and teaches the girl life lessons."

John 10:10 suddenly hit me,"The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy"

God warns us in the bible about Satan, someone who steals... God teaches us to guard our hearts, our faith and important things. "Guard what was committed to your trust" God can protect us from the devil but it's also learning to guard against the devil. There's no learning value that God sees to always shelter us but God's heart is for us to grow to be more like Christ, and people strong in character, attitudes who know how to guard important things in our lives.

God loves hence He chastens and teaches. Then I would think to myself, why isit my hp?? something that I can use to reach out for Christ and God, why does God chasten me in this? Cause to learn a gd lesson, it has to cost you something. My hp is uber important to me.. Perhaps thats why I managed to get my laptop back though it seemingly costs more :)

"sometimes... I wished God is a sugar daddy. but on second thoughts, no way, cos that would be pampering, not loving. :) God loves !"

I'm living my life strong. Not being a person who will mindlessly blame God for life's problems and bad things that happens but loving God more, because problems are here to teach me and make me a better person and christian. God loves!

Ending off my day with a smile on my face. I love my life.

Stand!

2009-07-26T02:55:00.000+08:00

Great service with Pastor Lia this evening!! to STAND!

Eph 3:16 "Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to STAND."

Such a thick presence of God during the service. Convicted to not lose heart, lose purity and lose FOCUS! Keep ploughing and loving people. GROWTH!

Visited Pastor A.R. Bernard's twitter n love his nuggets of wisdom!

Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are but we are responsible for who we become. ~ A.R. Bernard

Not Pride but Character, Not Image but Substance

2009-07-24T04:45:00.004+08:00

Intriguing question that left me searching for more answers:
Why is pride so difficult to lay down?

I found my answers in a sermon by Pastor Kong. Surely, pride is an issue everyone needs to deal with at one point of your life in Christ, and continue dealing with it over and over again.

Pst Kong shared this, Pride centers around the axle of "I". E.g. Too bad, I am like that. I don't feel like coming, so I don't come. I don't like it this way, so I don't follow. I have my choice... etc

But God wants us to be broken before Him. and He begins to take out this self-centered and egotistic "I" and puts in a new axle called "Christ" and indeed ..

"It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me" (Galatians 2:20)

We can decide to yield to Christ, and let Him be our Lord... yield to our Pastors and leaders who correct and disciple us... But before one can really yield, we must put off that hard shell of pride, self-centeredness & stubbornness, and simply be broken before God, just like that alabaster clay flask which was broken, releasing the fragrance of the oil used to anoint the feet of Jesus.

When we break and put off the hard outer shell, we can let the Jesus inside of us come forth.

I believe God is smiling and some of us too, because I know of someone who yielded tonight :)

Not pride but character
Not image but substance

Army is not gonna stop them!

2009-07-22T00:18:00.004+08:00

Planned out my schedule for the week last night and had a great meeting with Fifi just now! Fifi shared insights with us from this book called The Tipping Point and her revelations about it! Gonna grab onto that book and hope to finish it before sch starts!

Also, the army guys in D8 are AMAZING

Tues is the first time Henry fasted! so cool!. He asked me about fasting last Sunday as we were heading to the bus-stop to go home. He was so intrigued and the verse that Pastor A.R. Bernard shared few Sundays back "for this kind does not come out except through prayer and fasting" lingered in his mind. After sharing with him about fasting; the heart of it and practically how we can fast, he fasted for his very first time today! & so happen today was racial harmony day and there was lots of food and goodies around not like the normal army days. Despite that, he resisted the temptation to eat and fasted for a full 12hours, praying for his friend to experience a move of God in his life!

Just now, we had a huddle conference with Fifi and Cavin was involved. & actually he's having some outfield stuff and in some jungle somewhere yet he still called him! So overwhelmed by his commitment!

Julius! Despite being tired in army, he's still always cheerful and very ON about reaching out to his friends in camp! He was sharing that his bunk mates are open to Christianity and he's trying to invite them to come this weekend! He's making a difference right there in his army camp man!

These are the MEN in heartofgod church and in the army. So proud of them.

So inspired by Pastor How's sermon about Academic Excellence once again! It's back to school in mid-august and time to conquer the books once again. and What a great testimony today about Aaron Cheong, the super versatile musician!

Also over the weekend, Joseph's parents, Wess's father and Ying xuan's mum came to visit hogc! Joseph's parents said they were really "fang xin" to have him coming to our church and his mum gave 10/10 for her impression of our church! Wess's father said that he was impressed by our church and that the Word is undeniably good and very uplifting. He even asked Wess to go purchase past years AE sermon CDs. Ying Xuan's mum was really funny. Auntie Yen Ping and her were so pally! It was really cool mingling with the adults in hogc!

Today, i was seated behind 2 men from A Zone. and i am so amazed by the adults! I was sitting behind Darren Eng and another guy beside him. During the gxt video, they were laughing so heartily and simply thoroughly enjoying it! Then, most of us would think that only the youths would respond and say "yes!" "Amen!" during service, but i was absolutely mistaken. The adults seated in front of me were so responsive! They were excited, responsive and engaged throughout the service! When they praise and worship, they praise and worship God with fervor and passion just like us! just that they don't jump or not as much :) wow. amazed. These are the adults of hogc, the generation before us. Still on-fire, committed, fresh and excited for God!

SALUTE.

Then JIENING (Yu Ting's sister) came for service today! haha. I enjoyed sitting beside her and i found out she giggles really funnily. haha. And she even brought a notebook just to take notes during service and she took down alot of notes!

My weekends are always awesome...

2009-07-16T17:41:00.003+08:00

At that point I decided to be willing, nothing or anything is too big or troublesome to complete :)

Young but not meek

2009-07-14T02:35:00.002+08:00

INSPIRED :) This is the next generation.

Never despise humble beginnings

2009-07-13T16:18:00.005+08:00

After a powerpack weekend with Dr. A.R. Bernard, it is not just a weekend of BREAKTHROUGH for our church, D Zone broke through with attendance of 300! and D8 broke through 30, with attendance of 32!

Awesome-ness!

Right now, we've seen the 10% visible succes.. Back to the weekdays, it's where we plough into the invisible 90% of success! Part of it for this week includes Leaders meeting with Pastor How on Tues 7.30pm where he's gonna share stories about what guest speakers like Pastor Steve Munsey, Kent Munsey, Pastor Joakim, Jamaal Bernard and A.R. Bernard prophesied over our church and the comments they had after coming to Heart of God Church! All are welcome, leaders or non-leaders.

Also, I'm even more inspired to read!

While on the phone, my eye caught sight of a book titled "That book of perfectly useless information" which some of my secondary friends bought for me. haha.. i was very humoured but it is truly filled with lots of random stuffs.

Examples:

Eric Clapton, Jack Nicholson and Bobby Darin had mothers who the rest of the world thought were their sisters.

Mother of Oscar Wilde and Franklin D. Roosevelt dressed their sons as girls for the first few years of their lives

No piece of paper can be folded in half more than 7 times (someone try this!)

Strawberries have more vitamin C than oranges do

The bible is the most shoplifted book in the US.

The housefly hums in the middle-octave key of F.

Starfish don't have brains (explains why Patrick the starfish is quite dumb)

Pirates wore earrings in the belief that it improved their eyesight (HAHA!)

Men who were the Seventh sons of the Seventh sons - Glen Campbell, Perry Como

How The Beatles got their name? All the Beatles were fans of Buddy Holly and the Crickets, and so John decided to call his band the Beetles.Then he changed it to "Beatles" as they were a beat band

Famous Novels originally Rejected by Publishers
- The Time Machine (H.G. Wells)
- Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (J.K Rowling)
- The Wind in the willows (Kenneth Grahame)
- Lord of the flies (William Golding)

Famous people who were adopted
Bill Clinton, Eric Clapton, Gerald Ford, Debby Harry, Wesley Clark, Ray Liotta

The first kiss was supposedly delivered by God. According to Genesis, God breathed the "Spirit of life" into Adam. This has come to be interpreted symbolically as a kiss, which is why so many religious ceremonies include kissing.

A newborn panda is smaller than a mouse.

The ant can lift 50 times its own weight and can pull 30 times its own weight!

Seems like it's not all that useless after all! wow..

Never despise humble beginnings and initial disappointments and failures.

I was awed when I read the part about famous novels like J.K Rowling's, the richest author around having her first novel rejected. Some of the greatest literature, Lord of the flies rejected originally. Bill clinton adopted. The ant lifting 50 times its own weight and pulling 30 times its weight! haha.. wow. Reminds me of a sermon Pastor How shared about God using the small and weak things to shame the noble and mighty things of this Earth.

I did some research, according to Olympic weightlifting records, the total record of weight lifted in the men's 56 kg class is 305 kg (lifted 6 times his weight) ; in the 105+ kg class it is 472.0 kg (lifted 4-5 times his weight). Yet the puny ant - 50 times its weight.

wow. The Bible says God exalts and strengthens the weak, He REALLY exalts them..! We were a church weak in numbers, but God brought and raised our church, Pastors and leaders up, now we have a 1400 church of strong numbers and strong members.

For when we are weak, YOU are strong.
David, the small guy, defeated Goliath.

Never give up just yet! Never despise your youth. Never despise humble beginnings.

Hypostatic Union?

Grow another level.
What is hypostatic union?

Head on to Hoe-YongHui-pedia :)

Friday service with Pastor A.R. Bernard in hogc

2009-07-11T03:07:00.003+08:00

LOGIC & INTELLECT + SPIRITUALITY --> A.R. Bernard

2 thumbs up for A.R Bernard's sermon. It was mind-blowing and bringing my mind and faith up one level.

"Faith is a REASONED TRUST in God" - A.R. Bernard

He shared familiar stories and verses from the bible that we've heard many times but in a whole new perspective. The woman with the issue of blood who touched the garment of Jesus, Abraham having faith - following God's command to sacrifice Issac on the altar, and how God cares for the sparrows in the sky. and steps to take ahead from faith onwards. All in 2 Peter 1:1-7

TOTALLY brought me to a higher level.

I was seated at the third row from the front, totally blown away. Can't believe that I could ever ever ever have the chance to be at such close proximity to these great men of the Faith, Pastor A.R. Bernard and Pastor Kong Hee.

I was clapping and cheering crazily. Blinked several times. Couldn't believe my eyes. Clapped and cheered for Pastor Kong as he went up the stage. Cheered and clapped so hard as Pastor A.R. Bernard took the stage. Unbelievable. I'm seated in a service, having Pastor A.R. Bernard preach in person. I need a reality check. *pinch*

As Pastor Kong and Pastor A.R. Bernard and his son Jamaal Bernard praised our church, it simply brought me back to a sermon Garrett shared probably a year back about how we are chosen to be in this church, to be the first 1000 of HOGC youths before we grow into a mega-church; the thoughts of how this very church is built upon layers and layers of sacrifice of our Pastors (Pastor How and Pastor Lia) and the leaders and the givers, thoughts of how I am only 20 going 21 years old, yet I could have such a great honour to be seated near and among these great people. The future is amazing.

The principle of sowing and reaping is a law of the Kingdom. Whatever u sow, you shall reap whether it is in church or outside of church. But when you begin to sow into the Kingdom of God, what you'll reap is tens and hundred times way better and valuable than what you can get when you sow out of the Kingdom of God.

Sowing time into a CCA, what i may reap could be some recognition from the school and association and an award. Even if it's on a higher scale, it is not for eternity. But when I sow time into the lives of people, what I reap is seeing lives changed and turned towards God, people loving Jesus, characters moulded, bad habits eradicated, the weak made strong, the poor becoming rich, the loveless being loved and become loving. This is for eternity.

Sowing money into stocks, investments, material goods. What i may reap could be looking good, could be 1% of interest on return, but when I sow my finances into the Kingdom of God, the bible says the windows of heaven begin to open over our life and God begin to rain down blessings in some way or another. As I begin to trust my finances to God, He begins to bless me with extra cash in ways I can never imagine. He begins to bless my parents with rich bonuses and extra income such that I have sufficient money for needs such as my university fees. It is amazing.

I'm glad I decided to sow what I have in my life, time and finances into this wonderful church, Heart of God Church :)

TODAY - I met Chen Gang (who flew to Australia to study for the past 1 year!) at Bugis for lunch this afternoon, together with Daniel Chew. Good food all at the offer of 1 for 1! Missed him lots man! Great that he's back but not for long, he'll be leaving Sg next Monday. But before that, he's coming for AR Bernard service this Sun! After lunch, he got a haircut and dyed it purple. LOL! Before we left, myself and daniel gave him baby donuts from J.CO as a surprise! haha, simply love loving people! Daniel too got 2 donuts from me! DONUTS :) yummy!

Back to church for Captain's ball with the female staff and leaders. We laughed so hard during the game at each others' funny actions or reactions! Had lotsa fun.
Later, had followup with Chiu Wen. She's so funny! She shared with me stories about her family and how things are like there. I was really intrigued! hahaha! Lastly, she's going to wear a pretty skirt this weekend. :)

Also, D8 is going to hit and breakthrough 30 this weekend! Joseph's invited 2 new friends from his class and Yang Zhan for Zone F AE service and they're coming! Si Hui is bringing a new friend! Newer people like Mulyadi and Sarah should be coming on Fri for AR Bernard! Adele is coming on Sat!

I just can't wait to hear from the man of God, Pastor AR Bernard !!!!!

2009-07-09T00:09:00.002+08:00

Had a great 'unofficial' CG with some of the people in D8!
cos we were too hungry for the Word of God and the presence of God! Had a great time of worship and a sermon about Attitudes.

Anyway, saw this on Joanna's facebook note :)

A Church goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my ti! me and the pastors are wasting theirs by giving sermons at all."

This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:

"I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals.. But I do know this ... They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!"

I love my church! Otherwise I would be spiritually dead today!

AR Bernard in HOGC 10th July(Fri) and 12th July(Sun)!

DO NOT MISS THIS FOR THE WORLD!
A.R. Bernard, one of the most influential and dynamic speakers in the world is coming to Heart of God Church this Fri and Sun!

About A.R. Bernard

In November, of 1979 A. R. Bernard left a 10 year career with a major New York banking institution to go into full time ministry. What started as a small storefront church in Williamsburg, Brooklyn has now blossomed into a 30,000+ member church that sits on an 11.5 acre campus in the Spring Creek section of Brooklyn, New York. He is founder and CEO of Christian Cultural Center.

A. R. Bernard Sr. is also the President of the Council of Churches of the City of New York representing 1.5 million Protestants, Anglicans and Orthodox Christians.

Bernard sits on the NYC Economic Development Corporation Board; NYC School Chancellor’s Advisory Cabinet and served on Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s 2001 Transition Team.

Recognized as a New Influential – 25 Leaders Reshaping New York (Crain’s New York Business, September 2008); Most Influential NY Clergyman (NY Daily News, February 2008); Most Influential African American New Yorker (NY Post, February 2008); New York’s Most Influential (NY Magazine, 2006); Bernard was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award by Consulate General of Israel in NY in conjunction with the Jewish Community Relations Council and, Jewish National Fund. He has been personally cited in the Congressional Records.

In 1993, Bernard founded Brooklyn Preparatory School, a premiere early childhood education institution. He continues to revitalize communities; recently partnering with Common Ground to build and develop affordable housing in the East New York/Canarsie section of Brooklyn and leading a transformational team to purchase one of the nation’s largest Mitchell Lama Programs (Starrett City, Brooklyn, NY).

In addition to establishing Christian Cultural Center's Food Pantry, Prison Ministry, Domestic Violence Initiative and Family Life Center, Bernard organized a rapidly growing male mentoring program with more than 1000 male mentors.

Bernard has a Master of Urban Studies and a Master of Divinity from Alliance Theological Seminary. In May of 2009, he was awarded an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree from Nyack College/Alliance Theological Seminary.

(Taken from http://cccinfo.org/pages/page.asp?page_id=50481)

But more than anything, it is a milestone for Heart of God Church because Pastor A.R. Bernard is an international speaker and He speaks to large crowds.

He usually comes for Asia Conference or CHC services with at least tens of thousands in the congregation. Yet, he's coming to our church of about 1400. More than anything, Pastor Kong is also coming with him to Heart of God Church.!!

Don't MISS THIS for anything else! It's an opportunity of a lifetime!
Also, go out there and invite your friends for these services this weekend! :)

It constantly takes something out of me to do what I keep doing. But i just love my life. :)

This noon, I met Ying Xuan for followup, then met si hui at singpost. They waited for cheong jing while she fought her way up to a bus to come to church. I then had a chemistry tuition class w Alastair and Gabrielle, lots of laughter, but at least they left catching 1 important concept in the chapter on Mole. I later went around getting people in church to write messages for Ms Yvonne. hahaha. Xuejun attempted to be really artsy, and the attempt was to colour the mouth of the smiley face! LOL! Si Hui also helped me w this message thing; she is truly the reliable birthday/cards coordinator of D8!

Headed down to Sengkang, met Janson along the way and he came along and became part of today's LOVE YVONNE PROJECT!

We decorated her lovely room with post-its and wrote her a bed-time story about a panda, and actually she's the panda in the story. Janson was happily writing the post-its, helping to call up several people to ask them for messages, and suggesting ideas on what we can do. Amazing!

We then hurriedly left for our next appointments, and I met the MJC group at White Sands Macs! They just finished 2 papers today, Math and Econs, yet they were all smiling and full of cheer when i met them. Bought some cupwalker pearl milk tea, and after that I brought them on a mini "Fright Night Trail" to Liane's ex-house oppo Downtown. HAHA! Their expressions were priceless, filled with anticipation and some fear. We walked into the condo and just chilled by the poolside. We talked about life, about their CCAs, shared stories of the previous MJ batches and my revelation for EV in Zechariah! We then ended our meeting by setting a faith target and praying.

So who's in the MJ gang?

1. QIAN QIAN
(Ms Dao. Everyone says they think she's dao. We think she has a natural "chao bin" face
Superpower: create paths in crowds. She will dao the crowd away)

2. ELOISE SIM
(Power woman. Always enthusiastic, high, sms-es happy and full of exclamation marks. She initiated to fast for the school despite being in church for few months!
Superpower: Wit and language for suan-ing the science people about having no life)

3. SHI XIANG
(Mr suspicious. Always having a reserved look.
Super power: Power darty eyes to ensure no one ever gets to pounce a sneak attack on him or get him to walk into a cupboard that'll tranport him to Narnia.. Slightly quiet but intellect is oozing thru his grey matter)

4. GRACE GOH
(Ms Blur. Super ultimately blur. She just looks blur.
Super power: Attracts people to turn to her when they get bullied cos half the time she might not even understand whats going on... but she's trying :))

5. ZI YAN
Unfortunately I didn't get to meet him today... but on the weekends.! What i vaguely know is that he's in the Shooting Club.

Because of these people, their hunger for God in their school, MJC is in for a Great revival.

20!

2009-07-03T05:23:00.005+08:00

Tonight is a night of to be busy about blogs. haha!
Don't know why, can't really get to sleep, decided to talk a little. :)

With facebook, twitter, convenient outlets for random ramblings, blog feels a little obselete already. haha. but anyway.. let me get going...

So at 5.25am, I have "Lucky"-by Jason Mraz playing in the background, done with editting my blog template *cheers*, waiting for Imeen to upload Lifesong from my laptop, so that I can link it to this blog (then my revamp will be perfect), thinking about my day for tmr...

With the melody of the song going on for 2 rounds, couldn't help it but to check out the lyrics. and wow. Beautiful lyrics. aww.. Talks about pure, simple, sweet, love that can endure waiting!

I love these lines

"As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now"

Sometimes life, the world seem to have so much going around, going on.

Fashion can change, economies and stocks can scale up or down, governments can implement new policies, celebrities on ET having new juicy on-goings, new issues and problems hitting individuals, jobs, work, academic circumstances, bad friendships, loneliness, lack of money, loveless marriages and families. Do we have to live at the mercy of the spinning world?

I learnt something. The answer is Yes. We live in the world that is changing, we need to keep up cos we live in here. But God and His love for us never changes. and similarly our convictions for Him don't ever have to be compromised but strengthened.

Living in the world but not of the world. I don't have to follow and get opinions on whats right and wrong from the world. I get it from the creator of this world. I learn it by example from my pastors and leaders. I choose my culture and role models. I want to have the wisdom, anointing, discernment and favour with God and men as our amazing pastors, Pastor How and Pastor Lia and my leaders.

Tues night, I was in church for a little later after pastoral meeting. Went to the Admin Office to get something printed, and once i stepped in, I feel like I so very miss being in the Admin office, the privilege of being so close to Pastors and the Senior Leadership, to know the happenings within the core of our church... I saw Pastor How and just miss seeing him around. Just to wave and have Pastor say hi made me so happy. Pastor How, pushing himself to the limits all the time to bring our church to the next level, a World-class church. The best role model of a real Godly man! Pastor Lia, despite having a long and tiring day, as she walked out of church to the carpark, never fail to smile and say bye to the people, and picking out several people, encouraging and praising them for things they're doing in church etc. They are the most "others"-centered people...

haha, anyway, it's getting late, (ahem, early). & I just had my mum peek into my room. She just woke up. haha.

Smelt the morning freshness, heard the dog down the road bark and car engines getting started. I'm hearing Jason Mraz's song for 1 last time.

Lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Goodnight :) I love my life.

2009-05-07T03:28:00.007+08:00

It's weird how i burst and bubble with energy at night!!

Something Dom shared with us.. Judges 6:14-16! Such a powerful revelation!
How Gideon as one man, the weakest in influence, the youngest in the house, yet God used him to defeat the greatest army of that time, the Midianites! it just took ONE to do that..

It just takes ONE sentence to encourage a person
It just takes ONE sms to convey a concern
It just takes ONE smile to make someone feel welcome
It just takes ONE minute to pray for a friend
It just takes ONE decision to believe in Christ

& It just takes ONE..
to make a difference!
to make history
to bring a revival!
to change lives
to bring love and light to places where there never was.

wow. This is the POWER of ONE!

& I'm just seeing it in faith, ONE CG, D8, impacting Schools; GMSS, the JCs, the Universities, the Polys and the army camps! and Every ONE, loving and having a heart burning for others

We're not gonna be limited within the 10s, 20s or 30s, but we will touch and impact hundreds of lives..

And out of this CG, come forth leaders of every field! Pastoral leaders (CGLs, TLs etc!), Administrators, Ministry leaders (musicians, operations people, people who will be pillars of their ministry etc) and more!

I can't WAIT!

Btw, Matrix calls Neo, starring Keanu Reeves, "the one". He's the man who was prophesied to end the war through his limitless control in Matrix.

haa. Release the power of ONE today!

A great song to share with you guys: LIVING RAIN by Parachute Band

2009-05-01T01:52:00.002+08:00

Checked out Fifi's facebook and twitters about how she loves hearing the hustle and bustle in the church office and what a great church we have!
Just read Dominic's blog and it really got me thinking and smiling.

haha, really feel blessed in my life to have amazing people like Dominic and Fifi as my leaders!

Dominic
He works almost day and night for the church and God's people, but is always energetic and full of crazy ideas!.. Despite that, he's never too busy to care for every single one of us, and bring me higher in whatever I'm doing.
When I first came to church, Dominic was one of the people who really talked to me and I had a great time fellowshipping with him and others! When I rose up to become a pCGL, despite his busy schedule, he took time in the office just to ask about my life, how am I and shepherded me! Also, he makes us successful! When D8 had many guys (still will have many guys! haha) and the leaders were all female, he went in to know the guys under me and sowed into their lives and loved them even though he doesn't need to do that. Because of that, 2 guys out of that group are leaders today! Last year, he even wrote the leaders and the core people in D Zone personalized cards which he designed all by himself. He disciples firmly in love and when he encourages, he makes us feel like the best person on PLANET EARTH! Dominic is SIMPLY amazing!

Valerie Fifi!
From the time when I used to be afraid to talk to Fifi, until today, where I would freely share everything and anything with her, I have grown by so much learning from her! She's my role model and I want grow to think, talk, act, discern, make decisions, everything just like her!
She's my very first SOW Keyboard teacher and she always teaches with so much patience! Classes then were on Sunday mornings 9am and she would teach us every week without fail. After about 2 years, I actually had the chance to be on KB 2 learning beside Fifi! It was already an honour to be on Worship Team and I had the privilege to even observe and learn alongside Fifi when she plays the keyboard!
During the days of D2, she molded my character and taught me so many things.. from things of the bible to principles of leadership and skills in leading people. Also, she wrote me cards of encouragement during my A Levels and when my parents were very against me coming to church. She even remembered my bday and bought me a gift which is sitting in my room right now :) She sat in the first few followups that I ever gave in my life and taught me how to prepare for followups! Without Fifi, I wouldn't be who I am today!

I'm excited about the 24 Prayer Meeting later! Cyas

2009-04-04T02:22:00.007+08:00

haha! many things have come and go! but no time to blog about em yet!

lemme start with a few new happenings like in Jan 09: woW! school started! now in Apr 09: gee. I'm like in my last wk of school haha

So since time has flown so quickly, there's no pt trying to catch up on OLD STUFFS but i'll move on to whats been happening!

Firstly, just had a D8 Chalet at Aloha Loyang! haha pics here !

it started at about 5pm after a Zone sushi lunch @ singpost hahaha.. Then met Li Jun (the 毛), Jen and Si hui. We then had a sharing with Dom about restructuring and to have a culture of greeting our pastors and leaders ;)

We headed down with baggage of Food and BARANGs, checked in, started fire & relit firestarters, cooked unbuttered satays, watched TV, teased Wess about wearing a pair of gorgeous slippers *heehee, belonging to urs truly*, in disbelief of Deng Yao's blurness when he exposed his identity of a healer while playing 'Polar Bear', in awe of Adele's spot-on choices of healing people in the game!

Then we have the master chef, Cavin faithfully cooking and the food is REALLY REALLY GOOD! Took photos as girls and commented on Daniel's photography skills, & in sheer amazement at yvonne's interpretation of Yuting's shirt! haha.

Photo of the Cavin, Daniel, Yu Ting. View Yu ting's shirt..

Yuting's shirt actually meant don't cry over spilled milk, but Yvonne thought it to be eating cereal without milk..! lol. I had a really good laugh. Hahaa

After games & food, we had CG! We worshipped God and prayed! Later, we sat around, sharing stuffs, playing guitar. Shirlene's gonna be a powerful FEMALE guitarist yo.. hahas then we have 1 more guitarist in the CG!

Jackson, Cavin and I had a good time restarting the fire to finish up the remaining food n we succeeded man! We also have Shir, Jul, Dy, Ben, Henry playing some game with the forfeit of spinning in circles. lol.

Wan Chin was really amazing and kept clearing away the rubbish, ensuring that the whole place is neat and tidy and clean and organized and beautiful... we decided to call her "mum". haha

The best part was the Swimming pool ! hahhahah! we just crashed in, & dragged henry in.. Once Henry crashed into the water, for the whole time, he leaped into the water like more than 15 times.. haha, and out of the 6 of us, he won the "leap the furthest into water" award.

We then attempted to get Calvin and Gershwin into the water but both of them are like the adrenaline mechanisms in our bodies, the "fight (calvin) and flight (Gershwin)". haha jackson, myself and Henry really tried to get them, but before we got even close to 5m near them, they would have scooted far away. Calvin at least attempted to fight back, so he's the flight mechanism. HAHA.

But later in the water under the stars, we (Jackson, Henry, Shir, Jul, Ben & myself) huddled together and started to pray! We prayed for our pastors and their family, and also for our leaders, Dominic and Fifi! and also Lynette and Jamie. Yay! It was really cool.. once we opened our eyes, we found ourselves in the middle of the pool.. haha.

Went back to chalet, dry up, discovered that Calvin has some ballerina potential and taught him some dance steps * ho ho ho!* talk some more to 5am, then went to sleep. hahaha & @ 9am, as good Singaporeans and students, we started the morning with singing the National Anthem and saying the pledge, led by the funniest duo, Dy & Julius. The rest of us were like giggling or mumbling.

& with that, marks the D8 CHALET!

Moving forward, next week is already Easter Weekend!

Cyas @ Heart of God Church!

2008-12-06T02:44:00.004+08:00

Busy busy busy busy busy! hahaha but you know what!

God's never too busy for YOU!
And you're never too busy for GOD!

Love the song i have here on my blog. haha. I can just listen to it over and over and over and over and over again! haha.. Truly, every single one of us is assuredly Yours.

Thank you God, Thank you Pastors and my dearest leaders - Dom, Fifi & Heart of God Church so that I can come to know God and be assured of His love for us! & for the opportunities to serve in and build the House of God! =D

A LEVELS are Over!!! woooo!

I watched Iron Man with Cavin, Sheenan and Jun Jie in church and seriously, it was such a great movie! Tony Starks is like a GENIUS.

Towards the end of the movie, henry, ah ju and deng yao came and we hung out a little after tt, then played this crazy game about dinosaurs and bones. Deng Yao was seriously 'screaming' throughout the whole game & JJ and Cavin were constantly arguing. lol

Later we went for SOCCER! It rocks man! Aaron, Benedict, Xuejun & Wei Zhi joined us at tanah merah later. & Frankly, the guys are really awesome at soccer!

We went to eat after that and I felt like I could eat an ELEPHANT! I ate a serving of of fish ball noodles, not enough, i had another plate of mexican cheese fries and I was STILL NOT SATISTIED.. lol. But i stopped myself. Drank some water to add to me feeling full.

And as the A levels ends, my EXAMS are really coming... so are Yvonne's and Yu Ting's and everyone else in uni.

Yesterday, one of my Smu friends asked me on MSN "hey, hows your revision coming?"..
I replied him, "yeaa, it's coming"

GEE!.. i REALLY gotta start STUDYING! hahaha..

& i'm studying tmr! Going to study with Lynn @ the airport! =D and after that, off to ASIA CONFERENCE!! wooo! see YOU there for a power-pack, life-changing experience

.. MAN enough for responsibilities..

2008-10-27T05:08:00.009+08:00

It was an awesome week!

Here's D8 KRISPY KREME! :D
We went kinda crazy after CG on Thurs...with my KRISPY KREME HAT! haha.

Presenting the 8 beautiful models from D8!

Top row:

myself, Henry, Yu Ting & Yvonne with the Victory sign! Well Henry's a little cut off, but still half a victory sign!.

Bottom row:

Julius and his super act cute pose, Aaron the Strong, Cavin..haha looks like he was forced into it and Daniel with the hat bobbing and tilting off his head of hair!

Though Shirlene left early & Benedict can't take a photo as he's in army uniform & those of you who didn't come for CG....

we didn't forget to include U! We left a part of the Krispy Kreme for u...

The D8 DONUT!!! wahahaha....

now for Candid shots!

JULIUS! haha!

Anyway, it's 5.55am now. haha i gotta mention the time cause I'm not usually awake to catch this TIME. too bad 6.66am doesn't exist.. otherwise I dun mind staying up another Hour! hahahaha

I spent my night talking to Cavin, Evonne, Yvonne, Yu Ting (and her elmo laughs on MSN!). woo! and now i feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel really hungry.

Suddenly I'm craving for that Milo Ice-cream that Daniel was telling me about on Fri... and the Ben and Jerry's ice cream per pint discounts that Aaron talked about during dinner on Sat..

hahahaha. growL.

But before I end this post, my WEEKEND was a BLAST! Pastor Aries from CHC came and taught us SOOOOOOOOOOO many things. and today.. the sermon by Garrett! wow. Indeed, I am truly chosen and surely this connect group of people D8 has been chosen... the chosen people to be in the first 1000 people in Heart of God Church to be leaders and builders of a church of the next 10,000 people in Hogc! =D

I'll never backslide, never stop loving God, never stop having faith, never give up my birthright

Loving my life. Now i'm gonna catch some sleep.

^-^

2008-10-08T01:25:00.003+08:00

This is the BIG THING this year..!!!
Can't miss it for the world. See you there.

2008-08-22T01:27:00.003+08:00

SCHOOOOOOL started this week.. haha it's never gonna be the same.. reason being, there's more of us now!! There's Yong Hui and Wendy Neo joining the whole SMU gang.. haha, school's gonna be more fun!

Anyway, i think i had a drastic day. I had a bad hair day.. finally ended up getting a proper cut before class this morning... but out of the whole mess, I got to know this lady and this pretty cool saloon at Le Meridien.. not that the saloon itself is cool, but the lady is really cool. She's v simple looking, no funky hair or dressing or even the shop.. decor is like a neighbourhood hairdresser setting, but the hair-dresser, she's the cool one. Through sitting there and enduring the sight of my hair getting shorter... she's a v understanding lady.. kind and caring, problem-solver and i think she's the director of the shop.. yet she doesn't put on airs. =)

But anyway i left the shop.. stil having my hair looking ... not too great. Feeling mildly saddened over it, i went to church after everything, and somehow Pastor Lia saw me and personally added some wax on my unruly hair. lol, and haha, it did look so much better after the styling! =D all thanks to Pastor Lia!

The next best thing that happened today is talking to Daniel Chew who is at this point of time better be sleeping in his navy camp. It's really awesome.. we're talking about our lives, and sharing some the bible.. his powerful revelation on Love and so many others... wow, i just couldn't help smiling to myself because how many guys can be so on-fire for Jesus in the army??

ANS: many! haha and Daniel's one of them.

Woo! So proud of him =))

Lastly and most important..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to

The hip, the loud and always smiley Shirlene Ang!
&
My all time Secondary-mate, Hui neng!

2008-08-10T04:54:00.002+08:00

Today's newspaper, believe it or not, has 2 full pages coverage on Christianity rising, about FOP, about more people being open towards Christianity.

wow. It's a national mandate.. no longer just taking the school, taking the youths, it's TAKE the NATION!

and haha... HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!

2008-08-02T01:22:00.008+08:00

I'm just intrigued by Coldplay and their latest song... Viva La Vida.

I went online searching for their lyrics.. and I just went on to listen to Violet Hill and Death and its friends.. and understanding the lyrics. Really interesting stuffs. They said Viva la vida is written in relevance to Napolean and his life. Many parts of their lyrics make references from the bible.. very interesting. If you wanna find out more, here's the intepretation I found online. =)

And just came back from the Annual Festival of Praise 2008! It was really cool and Mark Conner is really COOL man! hahaas. And of course Pastor How, Pastor Lia and Charleston were just totally awesome! Tonight's crowd in the Indoor Stadium is about 7000 people and I can JUST IMAGINE and SEE IN THE 4th DIMENSION that our church can be of that size man! It's gonna be easy! And from there, see how it would feel like running a service for 2000 people, then maybe, 3000 people.. and then if it's like the indoor stadium, over 10,000! wow. really excited for a greater expansion!

Lastly, I hope Coldplay gets saved. haha. And come and play for FOP in the years to come!!!! WOO!

You have a plot of land.

If you decide to do nothing with it, eventually it'll grow weeds and become wasted.

If you decide to grow it into a beautiful garden, you'd start to pick up a shovel, get down to digging, planting, sowing, nurturing, pruning, watering the plants. However, you'd only get a beautiful garden if u keep doing all of that consistently.. once you do nothing with it, weeds will grow and eat up your previous efforts.

Similarly, that plot of land is like our lives. If we do nothing with our life, do nothing with our studies, spiritual lives, ministry, our health, our family, our businesses... it'll grow weeds. Even if we previously put in a lot of effort, yet we fail to put in effort consistently, the efforts will be wasted eventually.

Don't give up. Never let the weeds grow over.
The BEST is yet to come..

2008-07-26T00:28:00.003+08:00

haha, realised my blog has been really inactive for a while, so i decided to do some writing here. haha

Anyway, yesterday I was online, Ian sent me this mp3 file which was actually the recording by Phenomena during Red Rain last year, the song "On Fire" by Switch foot.

I was listening to it & I was so moved. Floodgates of all the memories just flung open ...

My first time in contact with a keyboard, my first ever Keyboard lesson with Fifi, then how my parents were unhappy with my committment then I couldn't continue with it, and later in JC 2 resumed Keyboard lessons but now with Lynette... and being placed in Worship Team playing 2nd keyboard on the Phenomena alongside Fifi! I remember the very first song I played on Phenomena as KB 2 was "Higher", and the first worship song I played as KB 1 on Pheno is "Saviour King", and all the things Daniel shares about worship ministry and prayer.. And playing with Pheno for Red Rain Concert on the keyboard first time to a crowd of 1000 people. It was absolutely crazy!

I could have crashed it, and Pastor Lia could have easily put any more experienced keyboardist up but Pastors had faith in me and put me up there on KB 1. This song "On Fire" is basically a keyboard led song where it'll hold the entire song up and there's absolutely no room for mistakes.

The recording track was on repeat mode the whole of last night and though it wasn't perfect, I was really proud of it, because I felt that it was faith-filled! Of course, how can it not be when Daniel's singing?! haha

But surely, serving God is such an honour. To know that any of my talents can be used by God to do His work, it is just pure honour. Even if I have no visible talents, I know the first step it takes is a willing heart!!

The Harvest is plentiful but the labourers are few.
D8 - twenty!

& today, was a really exciting day..

woke up at 6am+, travelled to airport to send dearest cousin, Li Hui to Australia where she'll be there for 3 months in Uni (miss her lots man),and then travelled all the way back to Serangoon Gardens, met Anne then Yvonne and Joyce Chua, and had really good Hokkien Mee lunch.
Later Anne drove (and she's really good at driving!) as we tried to find our way to NTU. lol, we made so many wrong turns and took at least 1 hour of driving to finally reach NTU Hall 11. At long last, we reached her hostel, and we (+ Yi Lun) had lots of fun packing and cleaning, taking photos, checking out more about the "roomie" and so on... haha. Later as Anne took the wheel and as sweet as she is, she offered to give us a lift to church!

I think I'm inspired to learn driving. haha.

My way, my rules, my life?
Nah, I may not be right. I follow God's way, God's rules, that's my life. Because He's always right!

2008-05-18T00:41:00.003+08:00

wow. What an amazing song.
How could we live but not see, Jesus Your sacrifice Your glory...
Love GOD,Love People.. thats my calling. yay. I feel so defined! =))

You Reign

What could stand before You
As You chose to embrace
A cross so undeserved You took for me
The weight of sin upon You
When You offered Your life
As You walked the streets of men
With fading strength

How could we live but not see
Your sacrifice Your glory

You reign, You reign
Over everything Lord, You reign
With power, and justice divine
Over everything Lord, You reign

What was Your last thought
As You drew Your last breath
Where the victory was Yours for us to see
And all will know the truth
As we live by Your grace
Every praise to You alone

See now the King of Glory
Love of God become my calling
Father I surrender all I am to You forever

2008-05-12T02:12:00.005+08:00

hi everyone,

wow. lt's been such a long time since i updated something here! hahaas.. and my first year in SMU is almost coming to an end.. officially it has, but i'll only consider it so after my summer term... =)

but today.. really.. what an eventful day.

This morning, my family and I, brought my grandmother out to Pasir Ris park, as what we did the past few weeks.. to just spend time with her, encourage her to stand up to walk, to come out and get some sun.. and hopefully be able to walk again =) She's about 80+ already and I really love her.. and she's so strong.. From being wheelchair-bound, being depressed about life and wanting to just die with an injection, she's now striving to walk on her feet and also smiling!

and what changed it around was encouragement! We always encouraged her.. praised her how much she has walked, how she has improved which she really improved tremendously! and I would always walk slowly behind her.. making sure if anytime she didn't feel steady, I would be just behind her, ever ready to catch her.. and I'll always be smiling. =))

Later, i met Henry GOh! hahaas and ate lunch with some of the D7 people.. and JUSTIN HAN! hahas.. haven't talk to him like sit down and talk for ages! they ate like "cai fan" while I had my favourite Nescafe Latte.
hahaas, and Pastor Lia loves Latte! Actualy that's the reason why I started drinking latte. hahahaa

and ANDREW CHUA... hahaas, aiyoh.. How can you forget Service timings!! Although he was in a camp and the organiser as well.. after knowing service starts at 3pm.. he just knew he has to come for service. Immediately he delegated his duties appropriately and came down for service. Proud of you man.

Much later, I met Henry again at the airport to send Chen Gang off to Shanghai... really can't bear for him to leave.. but then again.. it's his plans, it's gonna bring him a bright future.. and I pray that he would eventually discover what God has in store for him.. He has really gone through so much in his life.. The first time he came to Singapore all the way from Shanghai alone.. now leaving this place where so many friendships, memories are built... to Australia. but while sending him off, we met his mum who is really funky and caring! hahaas. and she has a great sense of humour..

After sending him, I just had a flashback of the first time we ate lunch together with Yong xing and Andrew Raharjo, how later u just came back and met Jiayang, and came back for service after that, the first time we went for CG together at FTMS House, the first followup I gave u.. the time where we just talked on the phone.. your first ever job application. wow. EVERYTHING.

REALLY GONNA MISS YOU ALOT and the fact that we really won't meet for another year just haven't sunk in.. but I'm just gonna pray for you anytime I think of you.. for great friends there.. that you would feel comfortable and at ease.. and that you'd be protected and blessed and grow in your relationship with Jesus! and of course do really well academically and MISS us! hahaas. JIAYOU! =) MUST COME back to HEART OF GOD CHURCH and find us !

Later, Henry and I went to look for cabs because there were no more buses. And then I met some MJ juniors.. Freeda and Carmen. hahas cos some of them are working there la.. yea.. Then, we walked out of the airport and finally hailed a cab. The uncle was really nice and didn't even charge us the surcharge.. haha

but. what a day..

Although so many emotions in a day.. i love my life because i've got a cause to live and a cause to die for. =)) love people, love God, love Life!

Ecclesiates 11:9-10 , 12:1-7 (NLT)

9 Young people, it’s wonderful to be young! Enjoy every minute of it. Do everything you want to do; take it all in. But remember that you must give an account to God for everything you do. 10 So refuse to worry, and keep your body healthy. But remember that youth, with a whole life before you, is meaningless.

1 Don’t let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor Him in your youth before you grow old and say, “Life is not pleasant anymore.” 2 Remember Him before the light of the sun, moon, and stars is dim to your old eyes, and rain clouds continually darken your sky. 3 Remember Him before your legs—the guards of your house—start to tremble; and before your shoulders—the strong men—stoop. Remember Him before your teeth—your few remaining servants—stop grinding; and before your eyes—the women looking through the windows—see dimly.
4 Remember Him before the door to life’s opportunities is closed and the sound of work fades. Now you rise at the first chirping of the birds, but then all their sounds will grow faint.
5 Remember Him before you become fearful of falling and worry about danger in the streets; before your hair turns white like an almond tree in bloom, and you drag along without energy like a dying grasshopper, and the caperberry no longer inspires sexual desire. Remember Him before you near the grave, your everlasting home, when the mourners will weep at your funeral.
6 Yes, remember your Creator now while you are young, before the silver cord of life snaps and the golden bowl is broken. Don’t wait until the water jar is smashed at the spring and the pulley is broken at the well. 7 For then the dust will return to the earth, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.

Wow. Remember my Creator in my youth.!

So many times, we live life in procrastination.

Thinking about it, we only have some time on Earth in this world and a lifetime in Heaven. We only get to live through every second of our lives now ONCE. I can only live through 2007 once, 1 life to do what I need and want to do.

Right now, I am so afraid to let a single second of my time be wasted and seep away unproductively. I only have ONE LIFE to do whichever God has called me to! I have a purpose and vision in my life and I will never let my time go to waste. There are so many things I want to conquer, to challenge and push over, to pray and see things happen, to take the schools and bring revival, grow the CG and have faith and through works of faith, believing in God, move mountains and mindsets.

I'm in the prime and best years of my life. People say The world is my oyster. But my world is about Jesus.

Mambo nights, clubbing and smoking, checking out whos cooler. And what new rebellion act is in and what new stuff people are consuming into their bodies. Nothing wrong with them, but there's nothing really good about it either.

Give my life to a higher calling. Not later, not in the grey hair days. But starting right now.

I love my Pastors!

I've found my purpose and the reason I'm living. Have u.?

2007-10-15T02:33:00.000+08:00

NOEL ERNEST
CHERYL

I will miss u so much.

We conquered together, brokethrough together, from single digit attendance to almost 20 now, we prayed, made things work until it really worked. Fellowship, outings, worship sessions, late night skypes, wake up calls to each other, finding out things about each other.!

the ErNerh of mampat gila who plays drums like thunder,
the indochine Noel of awesome designs of all graphics and everything visual,
Cheryl the powerful card maker, passionate bv and lovely bestie

We'll still be seeing each other! i dun care! hahawss. on Pheno n Staff.!

It's so amazing how I used to just be so indivualistic and friendships never really had an impact on me. I had quite alot of friends but when I think back, how many friendships and friends really thug at my heart when I know I'm not going to talk to them as much, share as much, or go out as much. Frankly, very few. and these few include these 3 amazing people.

Conquering new grounds!

THE NEW D ZONE RESTRUCTING!

The new restructuring is gonna bring D Zone and all of us to a whole new level!! It's just so EXCITING! I see Pastors, really going up a whole new level, preparing for the thousand and thousands, and I want to be part of the move to bring the church to the thousand and thousands as well!

A generation rising up to take their place, with selfless faith with selfless faith..
A new revival, stirring as we pray and seek

2007-10-08T03:55:00.000+08:00

POWER pOW!

this is my power weekend; I've been through 3 Services over this weekend, and it has left me hungering for MORE!

I LOVE to worship You my Lord!
and during the "no-name-event" which we had on Sat 1-3pm, the presence of God totally filled the whole auditorium! It's just swept across and throughout EVERY hook and Cranny. It's so powerful la.

I was just listening to Breathe:

You are my God
Closer to me than the air that I breathe
All that I am
Formed by Your word
I'm made in Your hands

Captivated
By Your beauty
Falling deeper in You

Breathe into my soul
Spirit of God
Fill my life with Your presence
Hide under Your shadow
Dwell in Your secret place
It's You I long for

Breathe into my soul
Spirit of God
Fill my life with Your presence
Hide under Your shadow
Dwell in Your secret place
It's You I long to know

You are my song
In my darkest night
I will sing of Your dawn
All of my days
You fill my life
With mercy and grace

Everyday of my life
I will wait on You
In Your presence my heart
and strength renrew
Every moment I live
I will worship You
You've saturated my soul
My heart flows rivers of living water

AND today Pastor's sermon talks about waiting on God and the River of God!

So many times, the word of God, GOd's plans for our lives, and God's voice, can so easily be drowned out by other noises in our minds. I believe in their hearts, there is a voice saying, come for worship session, come for service, prayer meetings etc, but there are other thoughts, logical ones - exams, studies, personal time with family, homework.

But why.

So many times. Pick up the cross and follow Me. Does your heart flow with rivers of living water, or has that river in your heart been blocked by sand bags of your cares for other things placed above God.

Love is not just an expression of words, but expression through actions.

In this crucial time of another round of A levels, every day, every hour, every minute counts. How many are willing to step out in faith? Step out to seek first the kingdom of God because GOd's word is ALWAYS true, and the things that you put aside to seek God first, shall be added to you.

"But seek FIRST the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you."

Your word speaks louder than this, Your word speaks louder than this, Your word speaks louder than this world...

2007-09-22T02:12:00.000+08:00

Change the World
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Whw08RmUFNg

If I could reach the stars
I'd pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart so you could see the truth
That this love I have inside is everything it seems
But for now I find it's only in my dreams

Chorus:
That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world

If I could be king even for a day
I'd take you as my queen
I'd have it no other way
And our love will rule in this kingdom we have made
Till then I'd be a fool wishin' for the day

That I can change the world
I would be the sunlight in your universe
You will think my love was really something good
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world
Baby if I could change the world

AWWWW! so nice la. greatest.
But the person I'm gonna like will definitely be able to change the World!

Be a hIstory-Maker! Fight for God's Kingdom!

You alone are God of all
You alone are worthy Lord
And with all I am my soul will bless Your name

PayaLebar SINGPOST! haahas..! WOOOHOOO! and had our pledge day! Wow.. and being able to be in the first Worship Team to lead praise and worship, it's just amazing.

Also, God really never fails! With the new and bigger premise now, it also means higher rent! but surely God provides and when we come together to SACRIFICE, all things are possible! Just that combined service, the entire church came together to pledge an amount to give for the monthly rental each month, and amazingly, when the total sum came together, we were like less than 1k away from our monthly rental amount! It is just WOW. now who says youths can't build a church.! Youths are the mighty force! And I'm part of building this great church!

Now who says you can only do great things when you're older.

Catch the vision and Run with it! ACCELERATE! Life's never gonna be boring with God!

Hugging is healthy.

It helps the body's immune system, it keeps you healthier, it cure depression, it reduces stress, it induces sleep, its invigorating, its rejuvenating, it has no unpleasant side effects, and hugging is nothing less than a miracle drug.

Hugging is all natural.

It is organic, naturally sweet, no pesticides, no preservatives, no artificial ingredients and 100 percent wholesome.

Hugging is practically perfect.

There are no movable parts, no batteries to wear out, no periodic check-ups, low energy consumption, high energy yield, inflation proof, nonfattening, no monthly payments, no insurance requirements, theft-proof, nontaxable, nonpolluting and, of course, fully returnable."

Everyone needs compassion
A love that's never failing

Now i surrender

Shine your light and let the whole world see
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus

Yay!

A touch of freshness and renewal! New blogskin! hahas.

Wow! sometimes when things get stagnant for too long in your life, it's time to move on and make a change! It can be results, financial status, spirituality or even the quality of how u're leading your life!

Get a change!

But before the books and work and materials come in, first step is to change ur belief and mindset. Facts will never change or get eroded over time, but people's attitudes and beliefs change overtime. If you were once full of faith and expectations! Start believing again!

In the bible in Matthew, it talks about a few blind men and Jesus.

There were couple of blind men, and Jesus came into the house where the blind men were.

And Jesus asked them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?"

They said to Him, "Yes Lord"

Then He touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith let it be to you."

And their eyes were opened.

Wow! Healing is like being renewed and being changed for the better where you get well and healthy! Jesus didn't say by your strength or abilities or money by healed, but he said according to your FAITH! Get your beliefs in order and set them right!

I believe for an amazing future and destiny and purpose in God and in His Kingdom!

Are you searching for a purpose and belief to put ur faith and trust in?

Put them in Jesus and he'll let you experience something you've never experienced!

If you're reading this and you would like to receive Jesus,
- I invite you to bow your head and quietly whisper the prayer that will change your eternity.

"Jesus, I believe in You and I receive You into my life."

If you sincerely meant that prayer, Congratulations!!! Welcome to the family! You're gonna discover and start living God's purpose for your life!
=) Do tell someone about it because you're going to need support! If you don't mind, do drop me a mail and tell me about it!!

2007-03-05T01:11:00.000+08:00

UPDATE!!

Results been good to me and really Thank God for blessing me with these results! mine's AAB. hahas, though I'm aiming for AAA, but it's good enough for me!

Bachelor of Medicine here I come! =)

It's been my dream to persue Medicine and really caring for the sick, and even the despised.

I remember since Primary School, I just like caring for people and be with those who are in pain and ill, supporting them and being there for them.

Now, I hope to do the same; Same in action and heart and also more in terms of being able to do something and not just being a pillar of support. To be able to administer to the problem and rid the source of the pain or at least alleviate.

During the GM days, it's just amazing .. how it was there I become a Christian, the little bible study session I attended with the prefects and PE Capts, and me learning about the gifts of the Holy Spirit, tongues and healing etc. I know I had this great impression on healing and I wanted to be a healer.

Persue your dreams. and not Let anyone trash it!

Though I did not achieve the perfect score, and neither did I do well for my GP, but I'm not gonna give up!

The Bible says "Let no one despise your youth"! Young and inexperienced as we may be, but with a passion and fire for our dreams, we're gonna get there..!

With God all things are possible!

2006-11-19T22:00:00.000+08:00

hey! lemme ask u something..

what are some of ur dreams??

hahas. Today, Pastor's sermon was on Dreams. and it was awesome.!
hahas, I was thinking.. when i was young, all those things i dreamt to be when i grew up. hahas
when I was in pri school, i wanted to be a teacher. Den it was a fashion designer and design pretty clothes, den it was a nurse- cause nurses are all so nice, and caring. Later it was a doctor, cause doctors are so noble and great. =). Later, when i was in sec school, i dream to become a world-known choir conductor, or a v skilled accompanist for the choir and pianist. hahas. There's more.

I dream of being a damsel in distress and there would always be some knight in shiny armour. I dream of fighting monsters and dispelling all the evil of this world. I dreamt of being a dancer and doing leaps where i just soar in midair and into the sky; I dream of going deep into the sea and explore what is beneath! I dream of being a movie director and an actress, and do great and impactful films!. I dream of being a model and walking down runways smiling and grinning like nobody's business.. because all the models that i've seen in model walks seriously don't smile.

As u grow up, somehow dreams start to diminish as reality starts to replace them. Everyone just follows the routine. study lor. and posts like doctors and lawyers are left to other people and never to u. Movie directors, will be other people, i dun stand a chance. Let's just go get a normal job, and lead a normal life.

no! Let's soar and dream!! =) hahas, I gonna be a song producer and help to compose tunes and songs in church or in the music world! I'm gonna be a doctor- and i wanna serve the ill! I wanna be one of the pillars of support in this church financially and in involvement.! I wanna do so many things for God! I'm believing in Pastors and a even more powerful Church! just let ur imagination run wild and dream!!

Walk on water!

The Seed of a Dream!!

2006-11-04T13:03:00.000+08:00

oh my~!
hahas, today met Maril for GP AID. hahas. it's in 2days time. and i was researching and studying online .. and there, I'm listening to the CD Cheryl passed to me, with Avalon's songs inside. Their songs are great. Avalon is a Christian band. I was just listening to this song "pray". It has a contemporary beat to it; it's emotional, yet quite R&B and all. I dunno, it's just a great song!

And there, images of dance movements and dance coordination just appear in my mind's eye. And i see them so vividly. I left my gp stuffs and started to put what i saw into movements. wow. It isn't complete yet, but i know i need about 7-8dancers, and i have about a quarter plus of the movements alr. hahas. in like, 15mins? woa.. man..

study study study.

hahas. and hey, you gotta agree with me, music is a great creation and invention man.

you can "music" everywhere.-. simply just immerse yourself in it.
plug yourself up with headphones and all + an iPod.
sing it out
sing it in your mind - literally a reverberating mental "note".
with instruments
or take your time to listen to your surroundings.

I think i've been so caught up in the music of exams and the music of tv serials.
Sadly, i've not been singing to the same tune as same of my good buddies, and stopped talking and keeping in close contact with them.. and have kept myself obselete in old music, and didn't even know there were newer creations in the music industry or happenings. ha. At least now, i feel I'm not cropped up in this exam chant! now, who says you have to mug alone to mug well?! i love you, all of you dearest buddies. You are not alone! WE're in this together and we'll get through it well!

All the A Level people, jiAyOU!! =)!

Now, what music are you gonna tune in.? Music for your soul.? Music for comfort? get Jesus loveFM.

2006-10-22T00:04:00.000+08:00

amazing..

lemme share about something that happened to me today.

I had service today from 4-6pm. but my mum wanted me home early, by 7pm, so that by 7.30pm all of us can leave together - my mum to a wedding dinner, and us to my grandma's place. And i promised her i'll be home early, and by 7pm. But after service, I was un-punctual, and came home late. In the end, my dad had to make double trips.. and they kept food for me, and so the washing for dinner could not be completed. I felt really guilty. And it got worse when my mum, whom i expected to be v angry, acty told me to not rush through my dinner, cause my dad will be fetching my mum first, so i can take my time to eat. My dad simply grumbled abt the troublesome double trip he had to make.

While i was eating, i felt like "grr!!" neither angry, not upset, not happy, but v uncomfortable. v guilty. I so totally owe them an apology, but ... it's like.. the words seem so hard to say, so awkward, and so weird. I was at home alone after that, waiting for my dad to return. I just got to my piano.. and pressed G note. there.. i just started to play "here I am" .. just played.. kept playing.. it's my first time, no score, no nothing.. just me and a heart to worship. I pressed it further- i closed my eyes and continued playing. now, it was really nothing.. and i just played.. the chords were right, the presence was right, it was there.. and i just sang, and played and worshipped God.

I felt peace again.

I went to my room. Tried to do CHemistry, doesn't work. In the end, i took a piece of paper, and wrote..
"mum, dad, sorry.
I didn't mean to be late, and mess up today. and Mum, i made u worried and could have caused you to be late, and dad, to run 2 trips up and down, i really wanna apologise, and i'm really very sorry.
love, shuyi"

I folded it and placed it in a little cute tin and placed it on their table.

Forgiveness. To normal friends, sorry is quite easy to say, but to closer friends and even family, it just gets harder. After that, the message would only be seen by them after we all come back at night. On the trip home, everything's like normal and we're talking and all. Then again, i was thinking, is there like a need for me to say sorry.? Aiyah, like no need ler, anyway, it's so weird, i think i should forget it.

Immediately I thought of what Pastor How said in service. Today's service was about the entire John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, He gave his only begotten son, that those who believed in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

We can be saved only through Jesus Christ, because He is the way, the truth and the light, no one comes before the Father except through Him. We can't buy salvation by good works. For instance, your good friend, comes in and destroys your family, kills your spouse and all, and later, help the needy, donate money and everything, would it help to erase the pain that he has caused.? answer is no. No matter how much money you give out, how much money you donate, it doesn't help., however, I would be insulted because you're trying to use money to compensate my loss, like I've killed your husband, here. $10 000. I'll be totally! waa, i'm not inhumane ! money can't buy back a family and compensate the loss and the pain!
But if the friend, comes up, genuinely sincerely, apologise and seek forgiveness, truly remorsely, actually, i would feel better, and would forgive.

Jesus died on the cross for us, because we had disobeyed God, and reconciled us back to Him. It's a choice for us to confess that we had done wrong or rather sinned..Sinning is being disobedient, from lying to manipulating your friend, to doing wrong things with your body. Confessing would seem totally weird, awkward, and even brush off that idea, saying it's a silly idea like me and my sorry note, but ... you'll be in for a surprise. =)

My parents came home, my dad saw it first, den i saw him peering at it closely and curiously. My mum was about to enter the room, den i told her i have something for her on her table but it's very awkward. She saw it and asked about it. She was so funny, even asked me if it was some prank. ha. Den after that, silence. den she said with a slight laughter, " ok lahh.. i accept your apology" with returning the cute tin to me, but keeping the sorry note. I believe she was moved. =) After that, i dunno why, tears start to well up in my eyes, but i really feel great. hahas. woo! wooo! heex!

Perhaps God is what your soul and spirit has been searching.

woo! it's a great day! =) Let's Mug'it!

2006-09-24T23:46:00.000+08:00

A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had in a seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith.

She says that Dr. Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons.

One particular day, Sally walked into the seminary and knew they were in for a fun day. On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were many darts.

Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture of someone that they disliked or someone who had made them angry, and he would allow them to throw darts at the person's picture.

Sally's friend drew a picture of who had stolen her boyfriend. Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. Sally drew a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was pleased with the overall effect she had achieved. The class lined up and began throwing darts.

Some of the students threw their darts with such force that their targets were ripping apart. Sally looked forward to her turn, and was filled with disappointment when Dr. Smith, because of time limits, asked the students to return to their seats. As Sally sat thinking about how angry she was because she didn't have a chance to throw any darts at her target. Dr. Smith began removing the target from the wall.

Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus. A hush fell over the room as each student viewed the mangled picture of Jesus; holes and jagged marks covered His face and His eyes were pierced.

Dr. Smith said only these words...
"In as much as ye have done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto Me." Matthew 25:40.

No other words were necessary; the tears filled eyes of the students focused only on the picture of Christ.

-------------------

One day Satan and Jesus were having a conversation.
Satan had just come from the Garden of Eden, and he was gloating and boasting. "Yes, sir, I just caught the world full of people down there. Set me a trap used bait I knew they couldn't resist. Got 'em all!"

"What are you going to do with them?" Jesus asked.

Satan replied, "Oh, I'm gonna have fun! I'm gonna teach them how to marry and divorce each other, how to hate and abuse each other, how to drink and smoke and curse. I'm gonna teach them how to invent guns and bombs and kill each other. I'm really gonna have fun!"

"And what will you do when you get done with them?" Jesus asked.

"Oh, I'll kill 'em," Satan glared proudly.

"How much do you want for them?" Jesus asked.

"Oh, you don't want those people. They ain't no good. Why, you'll take them and they'll just hate you. They'll spit on you, curse you and kill you!! You don't want those people!!"

"How much?" He asked again.

Satan looked at Jesus and sneered, "All your tears, and all your blood."

Jesus said, "DONE!"
Then He paid the price. Isn't it funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell.

God sent His only begotten son to die on the cross for us, that those who believe in him shall not perish but have eternal life. He saved me, He wanted me. He loves me.!. and He's so amazing, you gotta experience it yourself to know it.

I love God! ask me why...
This is why.

2006-09-19T02:01:00.000+08:00

EXAMS?

sure
I've got Jesus with me.

2006-09-19T01:52:00.000+08:00

wow. i feel so blessed. really.. i feel so blessed.

Falling on my knees in worship
Giving all i have to see your face
Lord, All I have is yours.

My whole life i've placed in your hands
God of mercy humbled i bow down
In your presence and your throne

I call... You answer... and
You came to my rescue.. and
I wanna be where you are.

Wee!.. my best friend. is always here with me. through late nites of studying. through troubles, thru lethargy, through disappointments, through happy times, through boredom..
- through it all. -

I love you best friend.

2006-09-17T01:20:00.000+08:00

TRUST.

how amazing this five-lettered word.. which encompasses brimming emotions, memoires; experiences and friendship.

Trust is really something that needs to be shared. The world has become such a untrustworthy place. Backstabing, is so common. it just seems like there is no where you can just peel off that facade you put on.. remove all your insecurities and cast away all your problems; no one to just pour them out to.. without risking being betray you.. But when you are trusted, it's a great feeling. you are entrusted to responsibilities. and You know that you are trusted and of importance.

If you were betrayed once, would you stop trusting again?

God trusted us.

He gave us a beautiful garden,
a life of abundance and aplenty.
An eternity of bliss and blessings.
A destiny of impossibilities.

He loved us with all his heart.

Trust him.
He will replace the void in your heart like how he instilled a purpose for my life. He will take your problems and bring peace into your heart. He will never betray you no matter what happens. and He will walk with you as he walked with me.. through it all.

i'm a christian. ask me why..

2006-08-17T00:31:00.000+08:00

How, how can i ever backslide. ..

"the power in your blood, destroys all lies"
I love you Jesus.

Shuyi, you're a Phoenix!

You go, girl! Like a Phoenix, the beautiful, soaring bird that represents vision and a thirst for life, your quest for adventure never dies. Whether parading around in a flashy, red dress at your next party, volunteering to tutor kids in reading, or signing up for a photography class, you possess a natural creativity and curiosity that guarantees a life filled with all sorts of exciting twists and turns.People around you marvel at your energy — how is it that you're able to whiz through a jam-packed day, rush to your kickboxing class, and then still feel lively enough to hang with friends and family? Just chalk it up to your undying love of life. You've never met a challenge you didn't like — even when it comes to romance.

He'll Pay for This

Here i Stand, FOrlorn and Bare
My Brother hiD my UnderWeaR,
I canNot FInD thEm AnywhErE
So clOse thE DooR!
it'S rUde to Stare!!

Swimming Ool

Swimming in the swimming pool, is where i'd like to "B"
Wearing underwater goggles so that i can "C"
Yesterday, before i swam, i took a cup of "T"
Now the pools a swimming ool because i took a "P (pee)"

Forgetful!

My sister woke up in the morning-
she had to go potty real bad.
I must have forgotten to put the seat down -
SHe fell in the toilet - how sad.

hahas, there's more!!

I ate a ton of sugar
It made me very sweet
It also made me very round
Now i can't find my feet!

hahas.. okie, i gotta get back to study for my bio p3 tmr.. here's a last one.

The Burp

Pardon me for being so rude
It was not me- it was my food.
It got so lonely down below
It just popped up, to say HELLO!

hahahas!!

LolX. thinking back.. these were the times.. the library-going times n how we hilariously laughed at all these stuffs.. and even compiled a collection of it. well, they were quite relevent then ah- but the amusement is still there, after so many years. =P

hope it had placed a smile on ur face. ;)

just 2 days ago, my brother n i were in our room studying. randomly, he asked me:

Bro: eh, u remember this poem not? goess like "here i stand, forlorn and bare
i can see ur underwear." how does it continue ah?

SY: *luffs* ya i rmb! erm.. hold on.

i ramaged thru my messy cupboard & found my notebook with collection of poems from writing autograph books in pri.. I search thru my notebook and found poems like:
"The king has kingship.
Queen has queenship.
But u and I, we have friendship!"

say aww. so cute la!, it sure bring back memories.

i continue flipping the notebook.. and was reading thru each poem that i had noted down as a child. it's an amazing feeling of sweet memories from childhood days, the childish innocence in everything n having so much fun.!

suddenly, something fell out of my notebook. it's a red packet. n inside is a blue $50 note. and alas, it just struck me, that 2 yrs ago, i hid some money in my cupboard and slot them in secret places, and i totally forgotten about it! and guess wad! that was what i needed to help fulfill my building!! with that, it made up more than half of my monthly pledge. woo!

however the financial blessings doesn't just end here.! today i went to my grandma's place. when we were about to leave, my aunt whom we affectionally address as "gu ma" gave me n my bro $50 each, she said it was to buy stuffs to eat when school starts n everything.! my GooDNesS! isn't that just so utterly amazing?!

I only get money on my birthday or my bro's birthday from my relatives!! but, this is just too incredible! Also, it isn't as if she is very wealthy and she isn't any big shot or anything and receives meagre salary but she's a great woman. and i tell u it is Him from above working in my life and blessing me.! I am no robber! i can now fulfill my tiths and also Building Fund for June !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i am so excited! i can't wait to go to church and give my finances to God! hahas. it may sound illogical. People see to believe. but in the walk of faith. you believe first and you'll see it happening.

.~Jesus, you are lord forever~.

i chanced upon a nice song. which makes me want to listen to it. again. again. again. and again. here's it.

歌名:水晶蜻蜓
歌手:南拳妈妈
专辑:调色盘
作曲:梁心颐
填词:梁心颐

往飞机窗中外睁着眼睛感觉一片灰
仔细看有房子房子里的人忙着努力跟随
一个找不到真正快乐的童话他们的麻林让我好害怕
是不是这个世界的希望已被吸走

突然一闪一闪亮晶晶
我看见梦里的水晶蜻蜓
找不回的童年
谁也不能
把它收藏在玻璃瓶

所以一步一步往前进
是为了留住水晶蜻蜓
有一天我会看得见
闭着眼睛
飞过海洋的原因

手里的护照发型不同
笑容变好假我却总是认为回忆比较美
这样算不算傻苦心决定要去的新地点
好不容易到了会不会发现
原来整个世界的希望已被吸走

突然一闪一闪亮晶晶
我看见梦里的水晶蜻蜓
找不回的童年
谁也不能
把它收藏在玻璃瓶

所以一步一步往前进
是为了留住水晶蜻蜓
有一天我会看得见
闭着眼睛
飞过海洋的原因

RANTS!

.now. I wish i'm in CounciL forever.

my parents are getting reallly really on my nerves recently? i hope it's just that i'm too sensitive or just that they're getting oveRrr on this dictatorship about tracing my every move every minute and second.

i'm getting scared of my handphone sometimes. esp. when it flashes the heartshaped icons. i guess the hearts are there for a reason. i know they truly care for me, my welfare, my health everything! but........ it's an ironic connection how it's like after they know it's byebye council for me, it's also like byebye more stay-out-late time and freedom. RarRR.

but i did enjoy myself meeting up some really good old secondary friends at VCH yesterday evening for TPJC choir concert. It's so long ago.. Amie invited truckloads of friends.. even Mr Eric Lee came! ^^. too bad i missed on his girlfriend, or perhaps wife already by now. heex. The people were huinEng!(the ever adorable) & Huili, Jingjing, ShengHui, JunLiang, Alvin Chua(who never fails to bring his reversi everywhere he goes), Chin Hang, Lufeng, Renee, Elaine, Jaslyn, Andrew(whom i just got to know was from GM lol.)

yepyep.. saw couple of Mjcians there too... Junyu, Xiwen, Sharon and Bernice. & if my eyes didn't fail me, i think Ying Chuan was present too. woO! way cool. we went Macs for a quick bite and left. hahas. was so lame. Shenghui the police officer took a snap shot of the stationary police vehicle and goshed, we like recited the pledge on the streets of Shenton Way. amuszingz. Moreover, Jingjing plays maple and all these RPG games. wow.. now i've found a fellow girlfriend to play with me! too bad my maple account is "abit" de expired liao hahas.

Tomorrow i'm heading down to ExPO for EMERGE CONFERENCE proudly organised by CITY HARVEST CHURCH. I know it's gonna be super good. Today's mich's cheerleading performance, though i'm not present, i'm rooting for ya in the little heartland of Serangoon. I'm really forward to the sessions tmr! woo! and also for the weekend. well, neng's coming to my church! =D

try it yourself.

You Are 18 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

What's Your True Color?
Pang, your true color is GREEN!
You're green, the color of growth and vigor. Good-hearted and giving, you have a knack for finding and bringing out the best in people. Green is the most down-to-earth color in the spectrum — reliable and trustworthy. People know they can count on you to be around in times of need, since your concern for people is genuine and sincere. You take pride in being a good friend. For you, success is measured in terms of personal achievement and growth, not by status or position. Rare as emeralds, greens are wonderful, natural people. It truly is your color!
