hihi, here to update.. though im suppose to be doing my work.. harhar.. taking a short break.. anyway, was reading my bible when God spoke to me.. was reading from Lk 13, n there's the story of the woman with a spirit of imfirmity for 18yrs! wow.. thats a long time.. the Jesus said to her, Woman, you are LOOSED from your imfirmity. yes, the word LOOSED struck me but i couldnt really understand what it was all about.. then God spoke.. He showed me a vision of someone struggling with another person.. in our natural reaction, when you are in a struggle, definitely you will be grabbing on to some part of the other person.. so for the past 18yrs, this woman was actually struggling (grabbing) and trying to break free from the spirit of infirmity.. but to no avail.. when Jesus came along, n she was set free because Jesus told her that she was LOOSED(let go) from her infirmity..
yes, sometimes in our life, we try so hard to struggle through everyday.. life becomes a torture n we are so miserable.. that's because we are struggling(grabbing) on to everything around us.. why don't you try letting God do it for you? Let Him, rather than let me.. im not sure if you will understand but sometimes, trusting isnt that easy but we just go to try and stay faithful to Him rite? When you begin to fight for yourself, God CANT fight for you.. not that He don't want, but He CANT.. so Let LOOSED n LET GOD MOVE IN YOUR LIFE TODAY!!
yeah, i've got a testimony to share.. haha.. somewhat related to what i just wrote.. was actually bidding for this module, Management Science.. was bidding for it with another 2 of my frens, n one of them is a christian too, from new creation.. so its like we are not sure if our bid is able to secure us the module so we were like praying n saying that we will just trust God with it.. then this morning, my other fren, told us that our module clashes with the test of our other module.. so me n my fren were like super sianz.. but thank God for intervening for us!! harhar.. we felt uneasy for the whole morning but kept confessing that no matter what, we will just trust God to work for us! n by 5pm, we got the good news!! hee.. our professor decided to let us take the test earlier so that it doesnt clash with the other test.. why do i say that this is truly by God's grace? thats bcoz i asked ard n the seniors said that usually professors will just reject your request n ask u not to take up the module.. but this time round, God did the miracle on our behalf! Praise the Lord! Amen!
so i m typing this entry purely to encourage whoever is reading this and going through some bad times.. JUST TRUST God... Let Him fight for you.. Let LOOSED n be set free.. yeah, bad times are part n parcel of life, n when God is on your side, no weapon formed against you will prosper! amen!

Knowledge is the key that unlocks, but character sustains you!

Knowledge translates into authority!

Kristoz Kai Kosmos = Christ in the culture!

Information => Mind => Beliefs => Self-Esteem => Actions/Behavior => Results => Habits => Success or Failure

Yup, there's so much more that it's impossible to write everything here! harhar.. n yah, i bought the book.. happiness is a way of mind... a way of life... actually it was inteded for someone, but her cgl bought her the book le.. so i gotta keep it for myself.. harhar.. who wants to borrow it after i finish reading??? hee... just msg or tag me here.. im sure it's going to be an awesome book!

It's now or never.. yeah, He going to work things out for me! Amen!

yup, this is something that i wanna blog abt last wkend.. but was simply too lazy.. harhar.. yeah, read this article in the magazine given during FOP n was impacted.. so juz wanna share it with u ppl, hoping that it will bless you too!!

Committed life emphasizes what we must do for Christ.
Surrendered life embraces what Christ has done for us.

Committed life insists on one's ability to perform
Surrendered life indicates that we can DO NOTHING apart from God

Committed life centres on our Doing.
Surrendered life centres on our Being (Character).

Committed life exalts our competance
Surrendered life examines our character

Committed life centres on operations
Surrendered life centres on obedience

Committed life issues out of good intentions
Surrendered life issues on God's intention.

Are you outwardly committed to the work of God but not inwardly consecrated and surrendered to the will of Christ? Have you substituted a surrendered life for a committed life? Have you unintentionally over-emphasized commitment and under-emphasized consecration?

yes, this is just so true, sometimes we are simply too busy serving God that we forget that God is the actual reason why we started serving.. n for me, this msg struck a chord with me bcoz im in a ministry cg n sometimes, we are just so so busy serving that we will lose our focus.. all the things that we do seems to be more important than God... that should never be the case.. the more we do, the more we MUST draw closer to Him for apart from Him, we can do NOTHING!!! yes, i need to make a conscious effort to make the commitment to have a surrendered life! only when we learn to put God 1st, consecrate ourself before Him, then whatever that we do for Him will bear forth fruits that will remain!! Amen!!

yup yup, had our CCH leaders retreat for the past 2 days.. wow.. it was really fun, especially when we went to pulau ubin to 'save mr poky'.... harhar.. had a good time fellowshipping with all the cch ppl n got to know some of them better.. yeah, went there on tues nite, then didnt slp the whole nite.. haha... then early wed morning we went to ubin le.. cycled for close to 5 hours! yup, a good workout but was super tired.. n we had a really short cg.. yup, though it was a short 2 days, but i really felt closer to all these wonderful angels that God placed in my life! thanks everyone, for being a part of my life! harhar.. yup, thats all for this time, gonna do my visitation later..
