Made 2 wasted trips before cgm...
1) I forgot that the venue is at church, and I went to NTU instead...
2) I took 179 to go back to church...but it was 179A...it went straight to Boon Lay interchange...

Anyway, today's cgm is great! And we had Koreans coming to join our cgm!! They are here to see what is CHC all about, and what is our cgm like... interesting...

Took some photos with them, they went back to their hotel after that, the rest of the cg went to fellowship at nti coffeeshop... we went at the wrong timing... The place was SUPER NOISY... because there's some events down there... I can't believe I had to talk by shouting... which was uncommon when we were usually there...

Well, tomorrow is going to watch G.I. Joe - Rise Of The Cobra with mum and bro...haha.

PS - The facebook seems to have problem... weird...

I need a breakthrough

I seriously need a breakthrough... Or should I say I need a lot of breakthroughs? The key down here is to pray...and here's the problem... I'm not praying as often as how I'm supposed to... What should I do??

Plus... I'm sick and tired of this on-off thing... If I'm not wrong, this year has already happened the third time, including the recent one... I mean... when and how is this thing going to stop? Until I've settled the thing or it is just going to keep coming towards me??

God help me... I need You more than ever before... Come and refresh my spirit and soul...

A new song from CHC :

Because of You, I was borned again
Because of You, I'm ransomed by Your Grace
Because of You, my heart has found a Home
A refuge for my soul

Because of You, sins are washed away
Because of You, heaven knows my name
Because of You, I can live again
You've broken every chain

Unfailing Love, so unreserved
You gave Yourself on Calary
And now I stand, forever free
My Saviour rescued me

Because of You, the weak say "I'm strong"
Because of You, the broken have a song
Because of You, there's no need to fear
Hope steadfast, ever sure

Now heavens, be open
Our God is unshaken
We worship, Christ risen
High above

Now heaven, be open
All kingdoms, all nations
Declare that "You are God"

This song is amazingly beautiful, the lyrics are just so meaningful..

I'm back...

Finally, I can start typing on my blog again... a lot of things happened in between though, can't remember most of it, haha..

Anyway, just feel like saying something about myself down here...

I'm changing...

- laid-back
- lazy
- not initiative

Well, these are the three currently that's happening to me... God...how to change these???

Power!!!...

Just finished watching match between Arsenal and Liverpool, 4-4. Arshavin scored 4 goals for Arsenal, while Torres and Benayoun scored 2. Grr...

Well...went to camp last week, tired but fun...think I better don't say too much about the camp stuffs...haha....

I want a new laptop...I want to pray for direction...my calling, relationship, communicating with people and etc...Ahhhh

God...Help me...Lead me...Guide me...Show me a vision or something to make me clear of the things I'm puzzled with...

Great...

Ok, just update a little first.

Went to watch 2 Man Utd matches at Jason Jiang's house...Haha, one was against Inter, their other was against Porto...

Had fun at his house...haha.

Well...my laptop's down...so I don't think I can blog, or tweet or use facebook, or check my mail that often...sad......

Anyway, I can't wait for hte Easter weekend tomorrow!! It's going to be great!!!

Men's United!!!

Came back a hour plus ago from the Men's Conference.

Pastor Phil is powerful!!!!!

And I saw someone unexpected...

Kenneth Lur!!!! It's been like one year plus since I saw him, missed the days where the whole group played soccer together...

Early afternoon, about one plus to two plus, went down to a warehouse to collect plastic chairs for the conference overflow, double days of moving chairs(Thurs helped out in expo shifting). haha. Blue-black was doubled, Gerald had tripled...haha. But, it was worth all the hard work. =D

Today is maximum building plan...the building was maxed out!! First time doing such service. Haha...

Went out to have dinner/supper with Dev and the rest. Vincent drove us home, thanks!!

Now...quite tired...but don't feel like sleeping yet, I'm still thinking should I go join Joshua and the rest to play basketball at 11am at Khatib...so far, so early....

Great Experience

Well, can't really remember last week, only remembered that Sunday was membership week, so we helped out in like moving the tables, and helping them to lay the certs and stuffs.

Yesterday night, went to JJ's house, we had a great time laying hands, praying by faith and being led by the spirit while praying. It's indeed a great experience...

Today went to last session of zone's bs. Had great fun also. Haha.

Quite tired and troubled now...arrghh...

Work...

Hmm, firstly, shall thank Joshua Ong for this work, even though it's just a short one week, but I do have fun working with him and his cg members...haha.

Funny thing is, when I work, automatically around 8-9 pm I'll start to feel my eyelids are extremely heavy, and I'll doze off... Happened on Tuesday Leaders' meeting, and Wednesday bs...thank God Thursday cg didn't happen...

Thurday work was considered quite slack, after lunch break, most of the people either sleep in between the shelfs to avoid being caught, and some chit chatted...

Friday, seems like we were simply paid to have fun...haha, Joshua Ong need to learn guitar, so I offered to teach him what I know...haha, and we just played guitar with his cg members all the way till end of work...hahaha

Yesterday went to watch 'Bloody Valentine', I was being tricked...I saw on Youtube that there's 3D version...I was thinking, don't tell me there isn't any 3D version in Singapore, and it only has it in America................... -.-

Today, went down for leaders' meeting for ushers, was support IC, and today in a sense I think I improved!! I no longer do a job as a normal usher, but instead I start to task people with jobs...Today's service was a great one, Pst Tan preached a great message, was quite impacted by it.

After service there's the makeup preaching test for the people who missed it the other time...ahh...I didn't manage to finish within the time frame...ahhhh....haha, but it was a good experience though. Be it for my first time preaching to a crowd, I think I'm quite happy with my preaching...haha...

Joined some of the people from NXGen for basketball...long time since I played again...had fun playing with Pst CK...

Took Dev's car back to Senja(Thx bro!!), chatted with Jia Jun quite a lot, he also shared with me the revelations that he had. Talking to him can really learn a lot of stuffs...haha, then from there I took bus home...very tired now...haha

Well, this is my sermon if you want to read it...

Loving People

In the world nowadays, people only cared about themselves rather than other people. Some Christians are also like that.

5 love languages

1. Words Of Affirmation.

Proverbs 18:21 – Death and life are in the power of the tongue. And those who love it will eat its fruit.

(The words that you speak can determine a person’s life or death. Give people affirmation when they need it, don’t be stingy.)

2. Quality Time

(Out of quality time, there will be quality conversation. Spend time that will help you get to know them better.)

3. Gift Giving

(Give them gifts that will really cost you something, and not something that you don’t want or don’t need.)

4. Acts Of Service

Galatians 5:13 – For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

(Serve them, even though they don’t appreciate it, and also doing things you know the other person would like you to do.)

5. Physical Touch

Luke 5:13 – Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him.

(Even Jesus knows the power of physical touch, He can just say a word, and the leper can be cleansed, but He chose to touch the leper instead of saying the word. Jesus is willing to touch those that are called ‘unclean’ by other people.)

(Loving people is actually a commandment given by God.)

John 13:34 – A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

Conclusion: Loving people is never easy, especially those that have hurt us before. I believe some of you may ask yourself, ‘How is it possible to love someone that have hurt me before?’ Well, Jesus loves you even though you’ve hurt Him before. This is call unconditional love. Your heart can only exist one of these, love or hate. When there’s love, there’ll be no hate, same for the reverse. When you love people, do you look at their outer appearances? E.g. the mentally disabled, do you feel that they are somewhere in a level lower than you? Or the unchurched, do you treat them the way you treat your brothers and sisters in Christ?

Well, this is just a simple message though...haha.

Yawn...

Friday went down to expo to help out in chair arrangement, well, in the end didn't do chair arrangement, but do the covering of the black cloth. One new thing learnt! Haha...

Sat, skipped pm with usher leaders...went for fellowship cg at k-box. It was fun!! Well, when did singing turn out to be not fun for me? haha...was very tired on that day though...

Yesterday, resting week, team 16 didn't have to serve, morning met up with cg for fellowship breakfast, then for service. It was the finale of the relationship series, there's still part 2!! WOW!! After that went to help out Huiling in the cg offering thing. Was supposed to change clothes, but the weather just turn dark, so in the end, West Coast trip was cancel, the games that were planned outside were turned to indoor games.

Haha. Had fun also, then went to eat dinner with Xiu Wen, Huiling, Xuelin, and Ruth. We went to eat 'Jia Jia Mian'...lol, then went home by bus, reach home about 10 plus. Bathed. Played guitar till I sleep...lol

Today went for first day of work...Met up with Joshua Ong at MRT station...I'm so tired...ahhhhh

Wee...

One week has passed...again...time just seems to fly...haha

Anyway, past one week...don't want to talk about the tests...haha

Tuesday had a combined leaders meeting with Pastor Tan, Pastor talked to us about leaving a self-centered world to a selfless world, by not living our daily lives with just only 'me, I, mine, etc' mindset, and start to live lives that think for others. He also showed us a movie called inconvenient truth. A video which talks about a Presidential Election Candidate Al Gore that lose to George W. Bush by just 1% in a election of a city in America. He's now teaching people around the world what the world is actually facing right now... The worsen effects of GLOBAL WARMING...Which I find it quite interesting and scary... If we are to continue the way we are now, we are going to cause a natural catastrophe that none of us would ever asked for...

Thurs had cgm, it was a fun and great meeting. Haha...usual, my fingers' skin at the tip start to peel off again, and I try my best to discipline myself, not to peel off the hardened skin that had formed on the tip of my fingers, if not it'll take a long time to form again...haha...

Sun met up with Ren Shen early in the morning...and guess what...we reach church on time!!! It's seriously on time!!! We reached exactly at 10 am....LOL...Started doing support, went down to do comms, first time... Went up for general briefing, serve as traffic 2...ahhh....
Today really went the extra mile today, by holding the big and heavy umbrella(due to my size...was considered big and heavy...hahahaha), just escorting people either across the road or to the bus-stop...well, the past me, will be very reluctant, now, God has indeed changed me alot, I really don't mind doing all these for the people, even though my hands are trembling while holding the umbrella, I'm drenched in the rain, a simple thank you and a smile from the people can really make all these things worth it...

Went to join cg after service to celebrate Kenny's birthday, I didn't join the ushers...haha, but today joined the cg had a great time of fellowship. Went to Cafe Cartel to eat. (Kenny, you're the first person that I accompany to eat so ex on a person's birthday!! You should feel honored!! Heehee...joking joking... Hope you had a great time...) After dinner, Kenny says his present, which is a vest, seems to be a little too big, so we went to change, but can't find the size, so in the end gave up...haha..

In the end left, Xiu Wen, Wen Shun, Kenny and me, we went to taka one corner to sit down and chit chat, and a fruitful chat. Shared some experiences and also meaningful talks. Really had a great time.

Well, now got to study for my last paper...irritating...
