Hey dear C2!

Just want to share with you my thoughts before and after cell yeah. (: (this is more like whatever i did on saturday hahaha)
Um,yeah so after i ate breakfast i starting baking muffins with my mum till 2pm when i left home for church because i had ushering.Awww man there were so many leftovers haha okay nevermind.Ushering was kind of messy cause the p6-ers are coming for the first time and we had to settle them to the seats, haha but during worship we didnt need to worry so much because the seats on the left are all full so we can concentrate on God (:.

Cell was awesome! :D i think to summarise whatever Joan Chew shared yesterday is that, we really need to rely fully on the Holy Spirit to guide us through the whole journey,forgetting about our earthly desires,everything that had happened,feelings and just trusting in God to use us in the way he planned our lives to go.

I want to emphasize on the fear of the Lord and how great is our God.
When you become a christian,you would be so passionate about God,wanting to know more and more things about him,you would love him so much till words cannot speak how much you love him.But always remember the fear of the Lord, many back-slided christians all love the Lord, they never stop loving him, but the problem is, they do not fear him.The fear of the Lord is something that draws you even closer to God, its not being afraid of him but you will gain a better relationship with him. Fearing him is fearing to sin against him.I mean.... just think back on everything you have been through in your life,all the victories, all the sins,and what Jesus the sinless man dieing on the cross for all our sins.(I cannot really explain on this,its really fully on your own experience,all i can say is seek God,all in all,open your heart to him.)

Man, i really wanted to share this with the cell,whenever i think of it,it really breaks my heart apart to really come back to God.Well,there is something i have been dwelling on since Saturday morning when i woke up.I think it was about 4.55am then.I opened my eyes,then a few seconds later i closed them.i had a vision, i was in a classroom with many of my friends there, i tried to talk to him, but every single one of them turned away from me, they mocked at me,despised me.It was really a terrible feeling. Then i opened my eyes,I was really turning round,i was mentally in pain. Then awhile later,i turned up to the ceiling.I think God spoke to me,This sentence came upon me."Jesus has no reputation"WOW! after i heard that i closed my eyes again. I saw Jesus carrying the cross coming in my direction,when he was infront of me,i offered him water,food, but he shooked his head,so i asked him,"so what do you want?"

He answered,"For you to carry the cross" i opened my eyes, i just cried and cried just really broke in tears ,tears streaming down my cheeks for about 5 minutes.It is like, WOW! The almighty God,Powerful God, but yet, The Humble God.He could do so many miracles,healing the blind and the ill,but when all had deserted him, all he did was love him and said,"Forgive them for they do not know what they are doing"

Just think about your life,have your desires and the feeling of being left out make you sin? Central Two, it is never too late to come back to God, you may not fully understand, i mean, i dont either, but theres only one thing we can do, and that is to open our hearts really not wanting anything in return,God has patience,he is the loving God,sending his son from Heaven to Earth just to die on the cross for Man's guilt.

Trust in him and he will make a way for you.

As we choose this path to follow God and obey him,we have to make sacrifices in our lives,we would have to sacrifices all that we had desired or even idoled,like how i was so addicted to computer games and then soon came to Pornography,as we make the choice to be a christian,we will face many struggles,people feeling weird around you,i dont know,God has a plan for each and every one of you.Well,i can say this,i have not regretted any moment of my life from the time when i confessed my sins to God when i stepped into Megalife(p6).I may have people leaving me,all these things that really breaks your heart.But this is all done because God wants you to seek him more and more.

But be aware,even if everything goes through smoothly, be cautious of pride, pride is a very strong weakness,if you have alot of awards,you are the smartest student in school,best in sports and all the achievements, remember that it is not by your strength you overcame,it is all because of God.After getting achievements, you may become Proud,Boastful,doing things to impress others,Love.

I have experienced it,during my fencing competition in September,i believed that God prevented me from getting a medal because if i had achieved that medal, i would be proud.But after thinking about it,i really want to thank God for all of that.

There are many things that are in my mind but its quite messy in my mind.So all i can say is,Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.Trust in the Holy Spirit.

Trust in the Holy Spirit.There may be obstacles in between, the devil giving you doubts and thoughts, but like what Pastor had said, when you are close to God,the devil cannot come into you,but when you are far from him, all the negative thoughts will wander into you,lust,proudness,sin.....

You know what is the right thing to do,you know what is the wrong thing to do, but why do we do the wrong things?Desires,Desires,Desires.....

Surrender yourselves to God,espically the things which you spend most of your time on and your mind will fade away from God,Computer games?,Listening to Songs?,Anything! Even Yourself.

Hahahaha,well, i just want to pray for Benton and Shaun that they will go through the 'O' Levels with a mind of peace and joy, that they will trust in God throughout the exams,i pray that God will take away all their distractions,emotions and everything that is worrying them.I just want to lift them into your hands, In Jesus Most Precious Name,Amen.

Lastly,those of you who are ill,like Kele(proud of you making the choice to come to church despite your condition).May God protect you,heal you.May God cast out all the demons that are in your body,so that you can be alive and well,able to focus more on God.Get Well Soon Yeah! :D

A year has past and its going to be 2010! I have learnt many many many things from God,also want to thank Isaac for being a great Cell Leader in the Cell, May the the grace of God be with you always,may you also pass it on to others!

Central Two,Seek him and he will be found.Even if you are a mature christian,continue to make commitments to God to keep that fire for God.This is not the end yet,never lose that fire for God.NO ONE CAN JUDGE HOW CLOSE YOU CAN GET TO GOD,NO ONE CAN JUDGE HOW YOU WORSHIP HIM.IT IS ALL FOR GOD.

1.We Are Made With Christ.
2.We Are Made By Christ.
3.We Are Made For Christ.

Regardless your situation, you feelings, remember that your worship is for God to feel Good,not because you want to feel good.

These are just my thoughts for now,and i believe you guys and girls have been through alot too and i hope to hear from you guys and girls too haha.

Hope to see all of you fired up for Christ next Saturday yeah?:D
We live by the Risen King!
In the Darkness,God's light shines!
Jesus died and rose again,my God,i'll only ever give my all!
My God he made a way,My God he saved the day,Forever,We will Shout Your Praise!
Greater Things Are Still To Be Done In This City!
