Love's broken-ness

Dear Jesus my Lord, show me the kind of faith that you will lay your power on me. Lord, teach me the kind of humble-ness that you will always call out for me to go for your almighty name.

Whenever you are rejected, I am heart broken. Because I know Lord, you bear the most pain. Lord, I still do not know your heart well. Show me your heart Jesus. So I can feel every that you felt, then I am more empowered to be your vessel. In Jesus' name, heal the blinds so that they can see. Amen.

God's Touch

Recently I am living in much joy. I find myself burst into laughter often. I am easily contented, and happy about simple things. Thank God for Eilton that he treated me Royale Black flavour ice cream cone yesterday at ECP. That really put me into child-like mood. But I am the one requested for his treat. =P Eilton is kind enough to grant my wish. Wahaha~~

I prayed so much that God would change me to become somebody who are able to bind people together. I started by trying to be humourous. YES!! TRYING!! Nobody laugh at my joke! So discouraged. Instead they laugh at my stupidity.. but well i'm contented with that too. Today during the prayer meet in office, my prayer request is that God help me to be more humourous like Jun Hao or loud like Eilton. So the prayer goes like this.. "Lord you bless Edison in his joke and upgrade his joke."

In the midst of joy, at times I also teared. Because I know God is pampering me and cheering me. For this I felt touched by God. My eyes often caught some "secret act" of people which makes me laugh. I saw Jeremiah acting like a kid when his sandal stepped by Eilton. I saw Eilton breaking the flower which suppose to be a gift for the Water Baptized sister. I saw people playing "Ji Gu Ba" and finger cramp. I saw yoyo break into half while the sister doing stunts with it. Many more...

I also kept having flash-back about how I am in the past. I rejected Jesus with mockery, unbelieved, criticized, I even cursed that I will kill the demons and god. But yes He did died but not killed by this weakling. God love me so much that He choose to die on the cross because I am a sinner. He teared on the cross because there are people like me who don't understand the wrath of God and the eternal pain in hell. Jesus knows what troubles and torments are coming ahead of me if I don't repent so He prayed for you and me. While I indulge myself with pride and ego for 20++ years, Jesus never give up calling me even I choose to turn my back at him. I know how much this friend has done for me. Now I know I'm delivered into his arm. Nothing going to come between Jesus and me. Not sin, not self-interests, not self-comfort, not troubles, not persecutions, not anything in the world. Not even "myself". Lord, No words can describe how I feel towards you. You need to witness my heart and examine it for yourself.

Joyful Day

Thank you Jesus for blessing such a wonderful and joyful CG day. The preparation was wonderful. The songs and prayers were wonderful. The noise at my house was wonderful. The guitar is wonderful. The movie was wonderful. The short boxing session with Ezekiel was wonderful. The movie was wonderful. The basket ball game was wonderful. The cheers were wonderful. The drinks were wonderful. The scenery at the park was wonderful. The people are wonderful. It is all wonderful because most of all

JESUS YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!!

Jesus Jesus... Thank you for the drink treat during dinner. Eilton picked up 10 dollars note on the floor and we know it is you who blessed us. Every little things in my life, I want you to get involve with me Jesus. Through ups and downs I want you to walk with me Jesus. In the times of intimacy or even argument, I want it to be with you. Yes Jesus sometimes I do argue with you. But never once I win you because you are God the almighty. You are even good at arguing with love. God I am forgetful and ungrateful because I am a sinner, please please please make me wake up whenever I sleep. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Today I learned the different ways of QT from my brothers and leaders. I realized that I am so inflexible! But yes! I am going to customize my own QT with you, in a more creative manner! But of course I will not forget the basic - prayer, bible reading, thanksgiving, praise and worship. God I have three things to ask from you. In Jesus' name, heal my left ankle please? In Jesus' name, give me music talent please? I wanna learn guitar so that I can play for you. Lastly, cannot share in blog. I tell you later Jesus.

Lastly, Thank God for Jesus for TNSA-4. I will never forget this caregroup in my life. Never will I. I love you my beloved family. Love you more, Jesus. =3

Combine Service

Today Hope Singapore had a combined service. It is announced that Pastor Jeff would be our new Senior Pastor! Pastor Jeff is full of spirit everytime. I believe God will move the church through him and he will be greatly used by God. If you happen to read this page, I would like to tell you, today your teaching moved me. God has used you to move me, Pastor Jeff.

Today as I was taking note during sermon, there are several sentences I wrote.
-We must be the right container for God to fill the harvest.
-How can we feed others when we can't even feed ourselves? (Spiritual food)
-In time of challenges, it is God offers a great opportunity to trust in Him.
-Does God ever fails me? NO!

And I have made two decisions:
1) Go down deep in prayer to ask God what He wants me to do for the kingdom.
2) I want to use my one and only lifeon earth to do God's will. To join Jesus in his vision. To meet Him one day to see the smile on His face.

Four things to pray for tonight:
1) About my frustration towards people's sin
2) God lead me to live in account to God and self
3) Go deep into details of my daily life (Correction)
4) Listen to the voice of Lord

Lord I'm coming to meet you.

Lord, My Companion.

I'm ashamed when I look at how you would not even consider or possess a second thought but all determined to die on the cross for me. I have know how great is your love, but I can never estimate the depth. Your love is far from what I can perceive. The amount surpasses and overflows over the brim of my bottle. Lord, I have this bottle with its own capacity. You say if I am willing to let go, you will give me another of no capacity, which its brim the water cannot meet. Lord I am exchanging for that new bottle. Please give it to me. Holy spirit come into me and teach me how to love the unlovable. It is unbearable to know how filty I am for my Lord to touch. It surpasses the amount of love I can imagine or expect. Lord I will love the people with faith. Agape is what you are teaching me.

Your presence so strong that inflicts fear, along with inspiration and encouragement. For I fear displeasing you in my substandard faith and deed. Lord I cast all my worries, doubts, uncertainties and transformation to you. Each day, Holy Spirit prompts me the area of life I am to correct and seek your purification, I turned into prayer instantly. I asked for your holy spirit to fill me daily. I asked for your lead daily. I have my cross ready O'Lord. Teach me and give me the strength to pick it up and follow you. Lord I give you praise... you witness my faith and take every of my prayers seriously even if it may presented casual. You see into my heart O'Lord.

Father, give me a place which its aroma is pleasing to you, so that I can meet you there. Amen.

My Victorious God

Some people say you're just a prophet. Some people say you're wise. Some people say you're just a man. But I say you're God. You are my victorious God. Thank you Jesus for bringing victory into my life. I know I will always remain a victor as long as I live in you. Victory will not come easy but I will persevere to the very end. My shepherd taught me to live the Word of God and not just reading. To let the Word of God be a shield that the devil cannot penetrate. Lately I have acquired this shield. I thought it was never possible. I overcame temptations many times when I hold on tight to Jesus' name and pray before it becomes too much for me to handle. I learned to be more responsive towards the Holy Spirit and be patience to wait upon the Lord. I learned not to rush before God's timing. I learned to trust in the Lord even when the devil stood right before me. How long will I be able to maintain this spirit of victory? -- As long as my life remain surrendered to Christ.

Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear not evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely Goodness and Love will follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Street Evangelism on 20th March 2009

We're currently in Operations: Vanguard's Will!

Target: Break through 100 by March 2009!

Guys! Ephraim and I are going to do Street Evangelism on 20th March 2009 for this break through on March '09!! We desirably welcome you all to join us in this mission! Let's satisfy our faith to the Lord by doing His Will. The plans are ongoing as you are reading this. We need your support to make this act more powerful! Amen!

Just wanna share this thought with the readers. What inspired us to do this is because, personally, I believe on 1st April 2009, there will only be two reaction. 1. Disappointment that we never break through. or 2. Rejoice before the Lord for the break through. I believe that our faith will touch God and surely he will bless us. Ephraim and I really urge you to come and satisfy your faith in this event!

Exodus 16:13-18
That evening quail came and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. When the dew was gone, thin flakes like frost on the ground appeared on the desert floor. When the Israelites saw it, they said to each other, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was.

Moses said to tem, "It is the bread the LORD has given you to eat. This is what the LORD has commanded: 'Each one is to gather as much as he needs. Take an omer for each person you have in your tent.'"

The Israelites did as they were told; some gathered much, some little. And when they measured it by the omer, he who gathered much did not have too much, and the who gathered little did not have too little. Each one gathered as much as he needed.

The Lord know how much we need. He knows which is not too much, which is not too less. But Lord did not place the bread directly into the houses of Israelites but outside on the desert floor. To acquire the bread, the Israelites have to make effort to go out and fetch the bread home. On 20th March 09, we're going to fetch the lives outside home!
