Saw this off the net....

Haha, another post in a day. Was surfing CHC's website and read up about Poh. Wow, was really impacted by it even though it was like.... last week's news, but it was so powerful.

You got to read it yourself to understand why:

It's really about the heart of serving God, no matter the cost....

Excitement till the year ends

Haha, life's been good. Wells, as usual, it's only the 'work' part which is kinda crappy. Just feel joy recently, wells it's quite hard to explain, but I guess it's just the joy of God.

Been really thinking alot the past few days, even back at 'work'. Wells, the church is really at a season for growth so been really thinking about it on an individual level. Think there's like so much more to grow in, and the year's already ending. Wells, got to go for a final push before the year ends!

I'm still praying for the door to be open, ha. Though I've only less than a year left, still the desire to be back is burning even greater! I miss the days of playing the drums with the team, the days of just being around with church, messing around with people, getting to know newer people in church, being around Pastors and the leaders. So so many things!

Wells, till then, guess it's all about prayer and growth till the door opens, I want to ready when I'm back, so it's back to basics and work? haha. Wells, been really practising my craft and it's really fun just messing around and practicing on the drums, haha.

Yesterday's soccer was fun, wells if you know, I don't really play soccer, but it was really fun, it was a light-hearted session, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I look forward to more soccer games, haha!

I can't wait for the upcoming services, it's going to be a blast! Service with Nick Vujiic was super powerful, like Joanne blogged, he's a man with a big spirit, a person who really knows God intimately and is secured in God. I need to be more like him, how many of you know that though we seem physically able, we sometimes really aren't? It's because it's not about what we have or look on the outside, but what's on our insides that really counts!

It's going to be an exciting Nov and Dec, with the coming growth and the people. 1,400 will happen. Let's carry the burden with Pastors and the leaders!

Seasons (past writings)

Thought of posting this, haha

Seasons

There is a season for everything under the sun

When we move according to God's and the Church's season
We will be succesful and blessed

Thus follow those seasons
Rather than that which your heart desires

Dated: 02 Nov 2008

Haha, it's not going to be another 19 days before I update my blog.

Things have been good. Been really going through a period of soul-searching with God, ha. Wells, it's more like a re-shift of focus again and that it's time to keep progressing in God.

Service was great. Pastor How was sharing with us about the anointing and one the things that really impacted me was actually that the world will see the scars that we have and know and know and know that the God we serve is real.

Think about it, how many youths in Singapore have seen 2 of their friends passed away in front of them due to an accident? We really have gone through much as a church, if only we can see that we really are a different group of people. But like Pastor How shared, we are not better, we are just different.

It's been really a good week, was really seeking God in camp too. And really got what I've been seeking God for and yep, so it's here all over again, ha. I know I say this many times, but yeah, it's the time for us to grow as Christians before we do anything else.

Also, Nick Vujicic and Pastor Kong's up this coming week. It's going to be a blast. We're all going to go up another level again, and with that we're heading to the 1,400 at the end of the year.

Let's go people, just abit more and the year ends. Let's keep going for God.

1 line

Haha, I just thought of blogging 1 line that I read off a book:

God always keeps His word - if we keep the conditions.

Just something for thought, it really kept me thinking and also what we need to do!

Growth

Haha, an entry with the same title of a past entry, but it's really been 1 of the most important words for me this season.

It's really just been a time of growth and focus. A time to implement things in my life and also a time to stop doing somethings in my life. And it's really been great, though of course there are struggles with the new things, but it's all been good.

It's just a great feeling when you really are focused and growing. You feel light, that there's not bothering you and God and that you can just really run fully for Him and do what He already has intended for you. Was talking to Hong Hwee and we realised that we are going through the same thing, and also was talking to Ivan a week back and we are also going through it.

It's really a season of growth, not just in the numbers for the church, but we as Christians need to grow individually. Remember the times where the growth just came? It was because we were focused on God. So let us continue to chase God as we build His church. Let's not be people who labour in vain, because if God builds the house, nothing will be able to pull it down!

So let's continue to grow in God as we do the labour of love that we all so love to do! Growth!

Age....

Ha, 1 year has passed and with that, I've become older too. Many thanks for the greetings, love you guys. To the many years ahead, where Church goes to the thousands! I look forward to receiving greetings from you guys every year!

Anyways, I'll be 'working' on the weekends this week, which is quite crap cause I'm going to miss church... but wells, I'm still too new to take any time off to attend church, so I just got to wait till I become more senior? Haha.

So what does it mean to grow by 1 year? Is it age? Or? Was just spending time with God before the time came and was just praying and asking God for increase. That I would grow to become even more matured spiritually, there's just so much more to learn and to grow in, so many areas that need changing also. Truth is, I feel that I need to grow even more now that I've been a Christian for so long, and that there's really more that I don't know about God also, haha.

Wells, I think it'll sound weird, but isn't it true? We only grow to realise how much we can never comprehend God? I just want to keep growing and seeing where He's going to take me for my remaining year of 'service'.

Grow me and make me. I just want more of You daily, let Your Presence stay with me!
