THE CALL 2013 NUS CAMP

a very short camp but impacted me quite a lot!
was quite down on day 1 when my mum and sis are angry with me for not holding joss sticks
The night games all the way till 3am seems to exacerbate my emotions..
but thank God I have supportive LG to bring me through this, and an understanding sheep to be a listening ear and prayed for me.

Some take-away from the camp..
1) Relationship with God is not completely active as God is taking initiative as well
and it is not completely passive as well!
True Christianity is about how much we obey, not how much we know..
When we serve, is not about we shine, but is about He shines.
God ask us to serve people is not about doing it super zai, when u avoid, we push away the trust God has in us.
Be faithful, it is their free will to reject God, but we must be faithful in sowing seeds.

2) in my future teaching career:
Don't aim to shine or take part in politics!
Be humble, just do your own job. Grade for teachers? isn't that a worldly standard?
Have a shepherd heart for your students!

3)If there is a gap you need me to fill, ok I will do it.

4) don't compare with people with 5 bags of Gold, if God only give you one bag of Gold, make use of what god gives and give back. Remember that God loves everyone!

what I want to grow in: Do not be insecure when serving! trust in God like how he trust in you. Even if you are cui, just serve because God is please! and have the spirit of excellence!

100% for God, or nothing.

God's will through the storm

  First Bread with love at TPY! Man does not live on bread alone.. but with Sherlynn.. :p What a joy to be able to serve and be His hands and feet in anyways I could, however small it may seems..  Met a 80 year old uncle while distributing bread.. and His story really breaks my heart. It has been a week since I met him but I still feel so burden till now. It feels as though God has placed his emotions in mine.  He works as a social worker, but in the midst of giving, he became skeptical that God is good. As he go on to share about his resentment towards God's silence in natural evil; such as earthquakes and death, and how God can go on sitting comfortably at His throne and watching his people suffer, my heart can't help but to break, for I know all that he is sharing about others is just a facade of what he himself have experienced that compelled him to doubt His goodness or existence.  How can you hate something that you don't believe exist?...

day by day, and with each passing moment

Day by day, and with each passing moment, Strength I find to meet my trials here; Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment, I’ve no cause for worry or for fear. He, whose heart is kind beyond all measure, Gives unto each day what He deems best, Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure, Mingling toil with peace and rest. Every day the Lord Himself is near me, With a special mercy for each hour; All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me, He whose name is Counsellor and Pow’r. The protection of His child and treasure Is a charge that on Himself He laid; “As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,” This the pledge to me He made. Help me then, in every tribulation, So to trust Thy promises, O Lord, That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation, Offered me within Thy holy Word. Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting, E’er to take, as from a father’s hand, One by one, the days, the moments fleeting, Till with Christ the Lord I stand. In Psalm 27:10-14 Th...

Huili's wedding

Philippians 1:9-11 New International Version (NIV) 9  And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, 10  so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, 11  filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God. as we have more and more knowledge about one another, (flaws etc), we learn to accept them, and our love will grow even deeper.. Know what is best and pure till the end of the age. relationship must produce good fruits.. and praise God no matter what. :) We are already complete in Christ, we do not have to find our security in relationship or marriage. However, a couple choose to be union as one is to shine brighter for God. What is the point of gathering two candles together if they do not shine brighter in flame?? Have been fasting for a month for God to gave me a steadfast peace in BGR iss...
