Back from Tioman Trip

Wow, 3 days 2 nights of holiday at Tioman Island really passed very quickly...Now, I am back home in Singapore.=)It has really been a great experience at Tioman Island.The water is really quite clear, u can even c the fishes inside.The sand r also not too bad quite soft though some parts of the beach r a bit sandy & rough.I had a lot of my first time experiences there like snorkelling, fishing, jumping into the sea,etc...I am just so glad that i was able to enjoy the fellowship with some of the NYP pple.Though the snorkelling time was short, indeed it was a very cool & fun experience for me.We even fed the fishes bread & nearly kana bitten by them.haha.I tried fishing for the first time & learnt that it was not easy as i tot.It requires lots of patience & also some skills to really get a "good catch".Thank God for Celestine's dad who helped us a lot thru'out e whole trip.We really enjoyed his presence with us there.He is e one who tot me fishing too.=)During our stay at e Panuba Resort, there was a "Cik" who gave me a good impression cos' he was really very caring & friendly.All the way from helping us to set up a campfire, giving us cardboards as mats to sit, constantly adding on more firewood, lending things for fishing...I would say he is a very helpful man.I think got quite a no. of us kana "sunburnt" hehe.hope we'll all recover soon!

School hols going to end soon liao...Though I still want to enjoy some more stress-free days at home, at the same time i'm quite excited to study in sch.weird right?I think it's more purposeful in this way.I really miss ah han hope that e mth of nov will come soon!!!all ready & excited to spend great & fruitful time to catch up w each other's life.Hope tt the rest of this week will con't to be exciting becos' God is with me.Sat is ESS "Bitter Sweet", pray tt we'll c a great harvest.Pple will experience e love & power of God=).Oh, got to slp now if not really have very bad eye circles...Update soon.

Retreat with God

Today, I've spent most of my time with God having a spiritual retreat! I listened to lots of praise & worship songs especially my fav ones.like "For All You've done",etc.God spoke to me abt not thinking negatively but instead trusting that He is a God of possibility.I visited the YHope blog, tot a lot abt the times when i was in Youth.The testimonies on the blog were really inspiring esp one that was abt how 3 pionners in e sch kept on praying & God answered them.Their grp not only doubled but grow to become 8.wow, I really hope to see that in my CG too.I really believe God is not slow in keeping in His promise.The hearts of my friends will surely be softened as long as God is in the picture.

I actually experienced "siansation" this morning.Thank God i got over it alr & able to recharged myself in the Lord.There's also this assurance from God that He will never shortchange those who r faithful and I tot of the principle tt be faithful to the little so that God can entrust us with more to come.This really encourage me a lot...=)My jap exam is going to come alr, I still feel that i'm quite ill-prepared.I need to kanbatte more!!excited for the NYP service that is to come,pray tat God will empower all of us to make this come to pass tog.see urgency and unity as a campus!going back to my retreat mode....

Thanksgivings

1. spent a great time fellowshipping with dmm.
2. accounted many things to my shepherd.
3. felt like giving up at first now I learnt to face probs with courage.
4. realise that escape is not the solution, God alone is.I need to seek Him.
5. today's sermon spoke a lot to me.
6. i am not alone running this race.i have a team with me.
7. learnt to be faithful with wat i have now.
8. verse: "Unless God is in the house, the workers will labour in vain." & " God is not slow in keeping His promise".

I am really so thankful tat God did not give up on me although i call for "quit" so many times.He is indeed a faithful God.Help me to face my problems and not to run away from it.Humble me to acknowledge that You're the answer i am seeking for.This month i want to apply to be faithful.yeah!!

Realisation that happiness is so simple!

haha..my title sounds chim rite?I'm so happy I just watched finished the drama show "My Queen".She was mentioning that actually happiness is defined by individuals.It struck me that watever I am facing now I still could thank God that I'm alive n at least I've known the greatest King of kings & Lord of lords.=)I do not have to worry so much afterall the Lord my God is with me.I quite surprised of how God could speak to me though I watching show..hehe.Indeed, there're so many things I can give thanks to in my life.I just believe that watever I am going thru now is just part & parcel of my growing up process.I choose to believe that God 'll see me thru' this life of mine.I pray that in my days I will mature even more, I'll dare to step out even more...Change my attitude O Lord!=)jiayou!walking out of the boat....

Back from leadership camp

Today i just came back from the leadership camp..kinda miss the times when all of us could P&W and fellowship it was really a great experience.At the start of the camp, I had 3 objectives: 1)To find my personal vision in NYP ministry 2) To grow in the knowledge of God's Word 3)TO be humble & learn from other leaders, be inspired. I just find that God is really good to be even though i fail Him many many times. God spoke to me more abt my heart attitude during the camp; to be more others-centred & not be attention-seeker esp. pple's affirmations.I'm really glad that this camp is pretty different from those in the past.It focuses on learning biblical truths & principles from activities.Probably, the activity that impact me the most is the "Walk of faith" cos' i could take from there a lot of life lessons.How not to be distracted be the temptations though alr feel very tired?Also, I learned that doing God's ministry is really not abt doing one-man show but rather to encourage one another tp continue this spiritual race.Obedience is also very impt just like how Abraham had chosen to leave the land of Hiran to go into the land filled with flowing milk & honey.I think the key is really abt not giving up no matter wat, even there's wavy canals or watever, I want to walk through it so I can see the miracle of parting the Red Sea.I was inspired be the leaders esp those who really could speak in a way to catch the audience's attention n also able to know the bible in depth.=) That's much abt it!I hope i will be able to apply it into my life=)Amen!

Revival

haha, finally got time to blog liao.so happy...this year 2009 has been quite a challenging year for me coz' i have crossed into Nursing year 2.I quite glad tt i didn't regret my choice into studying this course.it's been indeed a fun n fufilling course=)seems like advertising for my course.there're quite a no. of changes in my family as well like daddy n mummy looks "senior citizens", deng getting married n moving out soon, dan in Chile, meng venturing new career, me turning different.tt's maybe wat u call (nu da 18 bian); anyway i'll be officially 18 tis yr.woohoo!!Today i have a new conviction tt is to stay joyful in the midst of circumstances.jiayou!

Holiday pass esp fast!!!

today, it was an ordinary day again.i thank God that nowadays i'm more quick to repent as the H.S prompts me.Easter is coming soon, i got lots of pple in my mind to invite for this coming sun service at suntec.I really hope n pray tt a miracle will happpen that i will witness personal converts this sun.yeah, everytime i doubt God'll always flash this verse in my mind: Heb 11:1,"Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see".God is moving powerfully in those who believe n seek.recall the sharing i learnt during cg today...Celestine asked us one question:Think thru' all that happened since the first day I received God till today. I was thinking," Oh man, there's so many changes in my life I can thank God for!!I'm glad I knew Him since I was quite young.Becos if not I may not be able to who I am now.PTL!I was renewed my covenant with God tt I wan to love Him n stay committed for the rest of my life.Amen.Good night!!!

5th March 2009

today, i feel very joyful in my heart cos i noe God is always there to lead me in my life.i had cg just now at bugis.it was a wonderful time n got to share each other's life happenings.=)God reminded to be grateful of the things that i have now.It'll only be an exciting life when we "forgetting what is behind n straining toward what is ahead" Yes n Amen! I no longer wish to cling on to the past stuffs, instead i pray to see new breakthrus' now and in future.i see tt my year 2 is gonna be a challenging one so i'm gg to spend my March hols wisely to gear up myself physically, emotionally n spiritually to prepare for this..also, i wish to use it to catch up with some of my youth n sec. friends.ok, i shall end here.bye!

Kid's teaching idea

Hey, here is to share how i deliver a teaching to the kids from the age of 4-6 years old. The topic was "God made animals." First, i started the intro by asking them to take a ribbon from a bag which contains white, orange and silver ribbons. Then, i told the kids that it represents three kinds of animals which God has created.They are the animals that move on the ground, animals that swim in the sea and animals that fly in the sky. I picked three kids randomly who have the three different colour ribbons. And, i asked them to name me an animal that belong to the each kind of animals. Example is animal that move on the ground (lion).Then, i linked it to the bible.God made animals and there were many kinds of animals. I used powerpoint to flash the different animal pictures that belong to the three kinds.(land, sea and sky) The kids responded by shouting out the animal name. I explained God created animals and took care of them.He proveded them with food, drink and shelter. After that i carried on with an activity and asked for 6 volunteers. The instruction was to ask the volunteer to make an animal sound and the audience to guess the animal. Rewards was then given to the participant and those who answered correctly.Lastly, i asked the kids to name out the animals they learnt( not very successful) and who created them.They could answer that it was God.Yeah, animal stickers were given to the kids to help them rem. better "God made animals."

Looking back..

meirong(me) came to noe God on a special day of Nov in 2oo2 which i dunno which day..so sad,i dun even rem. my spiritual birthday.recall back how i first started to noe a bit abt God,it's when my ah zai shared to me the stories in Genesis.As a pri student tt time,i was quite curious and accepted my sis's invitation to go for her adult svc.When i just stepped into nexus,i was warmly welcomed by the ushers who shaked my hand with broad smiles on their faces.that's also one of the reasons why i'm currently in ushering ministry.Just wan to encourage those pple without a ministry,u can join the ushers in 'save a smile' project!then, i was very happy to go Hope Church for the first time.i followed thru' the praise & worship,sang every song though i wasn't believer.cos' i like to sing..During the sermon, i think i actually went to take down notes,haha,such a spontaneous vistor.When pastor asked those who want to receive Christ in their life to raise up their hands.I did so on the count of three.then a usher came down to invite me to the front stage.my sis was totally shocked to see me raising my hand,she didn't expect me to receive Christ for the first visit.So,she kept asking me,"Do u really understand wat u r doing?"
i just nodded my head.wow to my surprise,i felt so so happy and joyful after i said the sinner's prayer.it's not that there's a special power in the prayer, but just tt i had a stong sense of assurance tt God's living in my heart.after my mum got to noe my conversion,she wasn't really pleased but tot i was just 'san fen zhong re du'..ha.to be continued..
