Dun stagnant!!! Move, stretch n increase!!!

I've been a Christian for almost 7 years. Amazing things have happened. Looking back, I wonder where I'll be now if I hadn't come to Christ... The knowledge, the wisdom, the friends, the blessings, the favour, the protection, the goals, the hopes, the dreams... ... So much so much which I would nvr have gotten from other things... God has freely given all these, as long as I continue to seek Him. He's just so amazing!

2007 will be a year when I conquer my fears; when my cg is to multiply. It's a;ready the end of Feb... But seems like everyone is contented, everyone is just so concerned abt oneself and maybe 1 or 2 more closer friends. But that's all. How can we multiply like that??? When will you realise that you need to do much more? Not to please man, but to obey the great commandment, to make disciples! Ask yourself, are you a disciple??? Are you a role model for the younger believers? Do you have the desire to grow spiritually? Do you even pray?!

How can we mulitply if ppl who have been in church for years dun even read the bible or pray? Do you think you're there already? So arrogant. I can just see your downfall coming. Pls repent quickly. It's already Feb. You think you're still young? When the time comes and you want to enter heaven, God will say I dunno you. Cos now that He wants to fellowship with you, commune with you, you're always not free! Hello!!! Who is free in Singapore? Even the retirees are busy finding things to keep themselves occupied. Do volunteer work, take bus ard to tour S'pore, go on hols... Who is ever free???

It's abt your priority. What is impt to you? Then you'll do it without fail. Without anyone asking you. Do you even still have the fear of God, or the love of God inside you? It's not abt pleasing man, it's abt pleasing God. Our maker, our creator!

I dunno abt you, but as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.

9 years...

Wow! Time flies... I've been with Ken for 9 years. Known him for 11 years already... Think can say he's my childhood friend? Heh... The secret behind this long relationship? It must be God.

Before we both got saved, we kept quarelling. Over little things. I was looking through the letters, notes we passed to each other back then... So childish... Over such little things, we'll have cold war and stuff...

But after we both got saved and fully committed ourselves to doing God's will. We have no time for such petty things. There's a purpose which we're living our lives. Life has become more meaningful and exciting. We're always thinking of how to change for the better. How to touch others' lives. This gave us our joy and at times, we cry with our friends in their down time.

Seriously, you need someone who has the same faith as you in order to have a long lasting relationship. God blessed us more than helping us keep this relationship going. He gave us self-confidence. So that we are assured in who we are, not always living in doubt. Someone who have the same values and beliefs with you. Then we can talk abt running this race and finishing this journey of life together. Dun you agree?

Wonder where we'll be going later... Heh... Maybe just staying home and watching dvd. This is enjoying life... :o)

Mandate into China!!!

Wow!!! This is the word for the season. We're going in! Finally... Full steam ahead. Really so excited, finally after all the months and years of preparation... Was having dinner with Ken on Sat after svc... Then we were just talking abt the cg and missions... Ken asked why I didnt go down when the full-time missionary altar call was given...

I was just thinking of the answer which I gave him... Things have all changed. My focus has changed. I dun wan to be far away from home... I dun wan to be not ard when things are happening in my family. My parents need me to support them. Although I'm still not the sole bread winner. But i guess I got to contribute more for my family now. Missions can wait. But if the time when you can be filal is getting short, I guess you'll wan to be there for them like me.

I dunno... A part of me want to go, my heart goes out to the souls out there waiting for me to touch, to meet. But a part of me want to be here for my family. I feel so torn at times.

Like wat ken says, the home base muz be strong. I really understand why pst always preaches abt that. An antioch church, but a strong Jerusalem church as well. And similarly, if we wanna send missionaries out from our cg, the cg muz be strong. Then we can talk abt going missions, without any worries... Just chiong... So now, we got to build up a strong cg, keep all our families in prayer that everyone will be in good health, prospering, finding favour...

But this cannot be too long, time and tide waits for no man. if you miss this, you've got to wait... For the next round which is God knows when... It's time to chiong and go le... STOP PROCRASTINATING!!!
