To chase away the Monday Blues... God sent people to come and encourage me!
No prizes for those who could guess who came to visit today! :)
You know, Work was getting a lil draggy for my liking... until you dropped by... and showed me how excited over that sticker of yours! :) It reminded me of the first time I came to MCYS and used this sticker...that was when I told myself and told God "Wow, this place is like so profressional! I really want to work here! It would be a miracle if I could get to work here!"
And God has been super gracious to me to provide me with my current job! :)
Then, i reflected, work isn't that bad...I have colleagues who encourages, who love me and have fun with me... Politics isn't super prevalent here... and the money is good! >_< It does not snatch away time for me to serve! With performance bonus and pay rise coming up... I really should be thankful. Because, last year, this time, I did not have a job and prayed really hard for one. This year, this time, I still want to be thankful for my job. I love God and his provision. And, the wonderful thing is, we are starting our work cell group! :) And its getting a lil exciting! :) *Grin* So, No complains about work! Only, a heart filled with praise and thankfulness!
And God, Thank you for sending Crow as a timely reminder! :) I really am thankful for all you have provided for me... *at this point, i really want to cry aldy"
On the way to gym, while deep in my thoughts, I saw BEcky! Must have been God's plan for us to meet! :) hehe...it was great to catch up for a while! :) You seemed to have changed a bit, for the better of course! :) Meet soon? Maybe , to celebrate Gwen's birthday?
Hugs!
Goodbye everyone! Havea good day ahead!
So, anyways, :) Before heading home for yet another family dinner... Chiwern and I went to join the New Year Crowd at Tampines Mall... There, we met some of our favourite friends! To me, its worthy of a celebration! N So its a picture worthy Moment!
Please la, CANDID ABIT CAN?!!?

2nd February 2007
Starting from Friday night, I went for one of the session for FCBC Santification week..Man, i must say, it was like a new start..
Right from worship, when we started singing "How Great is Our God" ... I just felt in awe of his greatness and his character .... Especially when we sang "Time is in his hands, beginning and the end" .. This moment in my life, I am starting to feel that Time is in control of me, and I am not able to catch up with me... its leaving me breathless and times I feel like "GIMME SOME SPACE TO BREATHE PLEASE!" But, really, if time is in God's hands, What else can he not control? What else is more difficult for him? I reject the thoughts that I need to keep moving along with Time, because my God is a God who is in control, I need only to move along with My God...
There were a few things that Pastor Eugene shared that made me ponder:
"To the extent to which your heart is touched by God, to which your life is reached by God is the entent your tribe, family and relationships will grow." For the word of the Lord has said
these things will be given to you as well."
Matthew 6:33
Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things"
Colossians 3:2
Pastor William's Congregation (9am @ Daniel Hall) 3rd February 2007
Its been a long time since the last congregation, and even though I woke up really early this morning for the WORD encounter (6am) , I have no regrets...its been a fulfilling experience..
This congre, felt very family. The sharing from Pastor William, and the other brothers was clearly their heartfelt sharings, which I have been very blessed by. ;p
Pastor William shared a hard to digest message, yet one that is inspiring, as usual.
The truth was brought forth, without coating with sweet honeyed words, and the truth is that Our Christian walk will be one of sufferings, sharing the suffering in Christ, so that we may be changed from glory to glory.
because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
perseverance, character;
and character, hope,
And hope does not disappoint us,
because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."
How big is your problem then, Chin Ling,
That is how big a victory you will be getting! :)
All of weilun, Paul and Dennis's sharing were good, many things they said really awaken me from various parts of slumber in my life. I was particularly touched by Paul's testimony at the end of the sharing ... He said that God told him this " 我 都 没有怪你，你为设么怪自己？“ He was referring to the some of the guys he was discipling who decided to drop out of church and not come back... God, in his goodness,understanding that these has made their choice, and it was a choice that even a leader cannot decide for them. But, God knows that many of us are wounded, because of the guilt and the condemnation we put on ourselves... So, the moment Paul Said that, I really broke down. I never knew I was suffering from this guilt.. It was just very subtle, sometimes, you think about people that God has caused to cross your path, and how they have dropped out, I think about the ex-cell group... My heart hurts at the loss of many... I really felt like my hands were bloody from the killing of many spiritual babies .. I really really really hurt from it... I really feel so weak in my own capabilities... God has surfaced this weakness...and this time, I cannot wait to start serving again ....at Kids' Cell, At TYLC! :) He will make me strong in my weaknesses! Yeah! A New Beginning!
At the end of congre, Pastor was prompted to give hugs to those who needed it ...and man, it was such a healing moment for many...
And for me, just being at congre with the whole team again felt great... I really felt that love and family atmosphere, I thank God that he has binded us through the hard and joyful times :) We freely prayed for each other, laughed alongside each other, cried together... and yes, I'm so glad we did it together :) I love each and everyone of you...and really, lets cry together with each other when one is in sorrow, lets take joy and celebrate each other's success too! Del Del, Thanks for your hug....It was a time of closure for me...
Up Next! Photo Blog!

Started off with SOL ... and then help out at aileen's kids Cell and then service, thereafter, celebrated meifang's birthday!! And it was seriously one after another, MAD RUSH! :p
But, yet I enjoyed myself so much.. and felt so fulfilled... It true what was mentioned at the G12 last tuesday, you will be blessed even as you seek to build God's house first. At least for me, i felt blessed in the spirit and through God's affirmation. I enjoy being busy like that...its so much more meaningful... I pray that I'll never lose that joy in serving!
Next Up: Pictures! :)

Oh yah! Guess what came in the mail yesterday!!! :p - 8 more dayS!!
Then, I went to team meeting today, and everybody was sharing how they were using Ps William's devotions online , you can check it out at www.daddypoohbear.blogspot.com , and the many things they shared seemed to be things that God has been speaking to me about in the devotional that chiwern and I bought. And I went to check out the blog! Lo and Behold! I realised that we are using the same devotionals as the one Pastor William is using! :) Yes, its a good devotional, and challenges you to keep looking towards God. I'm sure we're all flowing in one spirit... hee hee . My sister's gonna get it! Now how about you!?!
Yesterday's team meeting was a wake up call for me... the word was hard, yet it brings a new beginning for everyone in the team, I guess.
I pray it touches your heart too...
Haggai 1:2 - 7
2 This is what the LORD Almighty says: "These people say, 'The time has not yet come for the LORD's house to be built.' "
3 Then the word of the LORD came through the prophet Haggai: 4 "Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses, while this house remains a ruin?"
5 Now this is what the LORD Almighty says: "Give careful thought to your ways.
6 You have planted much, but have harvested little. You eat, but never have enough. You drink, but never have your fill. You put on clothes, but are not warm. You earn wages, only to put them in a purse with holes in it."
7 This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Give careful thought to your ways.
8 Go up into the mountains and bring down timber and build the house, so that I may take pleasure in it and be honored," says the LORD.
9 "You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?" declares the LORD Almighty. "Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with his own house.
10 Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld their dew and the earth its crops. 11 I called for a drought on the fields and the mountains, on the grain, the new wine, the oil and whatever the ground produces, on men and cattle, and on the labor of your hands."
Yes, Lord. I acknowledge that many times, I have been sitting on the throne of my heart. Not you. And your house remains in ruins while I lived luxuriously. Lord, I acknowledge that the time has come for the Lord's house to be built. Help me to be part of the army that would build your house, Oh Lord. That I may learn to give myself wholly unto you. Lo0rd, help me not to be busy with my own life...but to start living my life in abundance by giving it wholly to you.
Yes Lord. Its a new beginning today. Let me listen to your calls, and follow your ways. That your light will lead my path and light my way :)
In Jesus Name,
Amen.
