Im Just Love TODAY So So Much!!
Lets starts it from the beginning...
Took bus to Bishan Interchange, and met Ryan on bus cos just nice when he reached Sgoon, I just finished bathing. So on the way, both of us are reading "The Fear of the Lord". I was reading the INTRODUCTION part, while Ryan was already reading CHAPTER FOUR! Haha... I am going to CHIONGCHIONGCHIONG, aiming to finish reading the whole book by 26 Dec, so that I will still have time to do the review. It may seem impossible for one who do not read books to finish the thick book in just 17 days. But I am gonna discipline myself in reading it! Like Pastor said, when we have a deadline for something, it will just make us want to do it fast and before it. Haha.. But I am not just going to CHIONG it aimlessly, but I will CHIONG it with the HOLY SPIRIT'S GUIDANCE, and with UNDERSTANDINGS! :D
Let me tell you that this book is really POWER!! Just the introduction has blown me away and see things. In the introduction, it said about a church that the Lord has revived with His presence. But people began to take God for granted and cheaply. They started to take granted of His presence and just love dwelling in it and not pursuing God. God called Pastor John Bevere to this church to tell them about the fears of the Lord. And the next day after Pastor John Bevere preached the sermon, the Pastor of that church began to correct him of what he has said and he even used a verse from the bible to debate him. I just felt so sad that there are many people who called themselves as Christians in the world are taking God and His words cheaply, and the angry part is that they used and interprets His words in the wrong way! Just like what Pastor David Shearer preached about churches having the spirit of Abel and the spirit of Cain. It just so sad and angry to see Christians and churches having the spirit of Cain. But I believes that Heart of God Church is going to INFLUENCE the whole churches in the world, and not just churches, but every people in the world, and set the foundation of all nations! (:
Haha.. My review for INTRODUCTION! Anyway, after that, met Vinson, Sera, SimYi to go Thomson to eat pratas! Haha.. This my first time going there, and it is so YUMMY!!~ The plain prata is so crispy and tasty. The egg prata is full of eggs! Haha.. And next sunday, we are going to NTUC to buys eggs before going there and try if we can use our own eggs for pratas, to save 50cents for each egg pratas. Haha.. CHEAPO! But looking at another way, we can save a lot for it. Xp Anyway, Sera and I have a deal that every sunday before service we will be meeting and have pratas first. Haha.. And if one day we really bored of the pratas, we will go to the stall next to it, and I believes we will try all the stalls at the row of shop houses! Haha.. I enjoyed myself during this small pratas outing with them! XD
Today was Pastor David Shearer again, our Pastor's Pastor. He is such a great man of God. As I was sitting at the third rows, I saw Pastor David Shearer was trying to praise and worship (P&W) God as much as he can, and when he has given his best, he sat down to rest and continue worshipping God. Seeing him doing these, I just so touched. Although now Pastor David Shearer may be old at the outside (but he is still young at heart), he is still giving his best for God and worshipping Him. Even though he may be not as strong as last time, but he will keep hanging on and stand at the pulpit for 2 hours or more just to pass the love, the message of God to the sons and daughters of God, to the next generation. So that the real message of God's words will not be loosen away. Wasnt him POWERFUL? Haha.. Of course he is, cause he is our Pastor's Pastors! And I love the both of them SO SO MUCH! I will post about the incident soon (hopefully). I wanted to be like Pastor David Shearer to continue giving my best to God even I am old and weak at the outside. The flesh is weak, but the spirit is STRONG and WILLING!
And after P&W, Pastor How asked us to pair up and prays for each other. So I paired up with Sera, and prayed for her. This is my first time praying for the person face to face. Was kinda scare and worrys at first, but just prayed in faith! And while praying for her, I didnt stumble any words, and I was really shocked of it. And after prayed for her, Sera just hugged me so so tightly! I was so touched for that, cause God has used me to show His love to her and of cause she encouraged me by doing that too! XD Then continue to worship God and I felt God's pressence so so strongly, and started to tears again, knowing God is here with me!
Service was POWERFUL again with Pastor David Shearer. Im gonna score A* for all the 5 principles! XD Not just a pass, but an A*. I want to do well and my best for God!
Then after service, Nicholas talked to me as he heard God to ask him to encourage me. Telling me how I have changed physically and spiritually, the way I spoke and everything. Telling me that there is this annointing of God in me that whenever things that seems no more hope, it will started to happening again. Telling my point B and encourage me to start believing and seeing myself as a TL and CGL in the future. Yesh!! God used Nick to double confirmed with me again. I forgotten is on which day of VBS, I think is on Thursday. God gave me a vision of being a CGL of 58 ppls at the end of 2009. And yesh, I started doubting again that I can go to it. But today, Nick just encouraged me, I may have short-comings, but I am gonna to practise it! Talking will no longer be a blockage of my dream! Just like this example that Nick mentioned, "When God has given the factors, and I dont believe and do it, it is equal to nothing. Just like clapping hands, you could not claps with just a hand".
All these words that Nick said has really set me thinking and encouraged me a lot. As I was doing nothing at CO practise, just listening, I started to think of what Nick has said to me. I started to feel how blessed I am that God has given me this annointing and knowing that God has never forsaken me at all. And while I thinking of it, I started to feel God is around me again. I really missed His presence a lot!! Thank You Lord for not forsaken me, forgetting me, and leaving me! I Love You Lord! I am gonna start believing that God can uses me and seeing myself as a Leader. I am gonna really build my spiritual life UPUPUP again so that I could help my people in growing close to God and in their spiritual life! I CAN DO IT!! God, Pastors and my Leaders have trusted me so much, I am not going to let them down! Yesh, I CAN DO IT! AMEN!
Then went Pasar Malan with SiMin, HweeYee and Bernard to the game stall. Haha.. The uncle remembered me and Bernard le, because we been going there to pump more air into the SpoongeBob that we got for SiMin. But now, the Spoongebob began to leak air after pumping air today. Haha.. And after bargaining with uncle a lot a lot, he allows us to change a new one even though we got it 2 days ago with good condition! But we need to go to Amiralty to change as they have no more stocks on hand and it was the last day of Pasar Malan today. But at least better than taking a no air SpoongeBob home. Haha. And then I started my bargaining skill to the uncle again. And he is really nice that he let us once again to get the stuffs without reaching the point! Haha.. That time we used 200plus points to get the 350 points SpoongeBob for SiMin because he promised to give it to me after 2 games. Haha.. And then today SiMin got the Mario Soft Toy that needs 800 points at only 541 points! Because I bargained until 3 games and he will give no matter what points we get. LOL.
After playing, uncle came over and talks to us. He is really nice and friendly. :D And guess what?! God can really do things unexpectedly. Uncle came over and chatted and asked us if we wants to work. Haha. And the pay is not bad lei. Testing Period: 1 hr = $5. Real Period: 1 hr = $6. I really dont mind working cause it is quite a slack job and I can play at the same time. Haha.. Who knows maybe Uncle will give me a big bear after a Pasar Malan of hardworks. LOL. And the best thing of it is that it is flexible! We can rejects the Uncle if we cant do it and if it is too far. Haha. And also, that after much talking again, he allows us to ask our friend to replace us if one of the three days, we couldnt make it. So yar, I got lobangs! And it is at nights! I dont mind cause all my people could not come out at night de, so I could use this time to earn extra money at same time, to pay my Tilthings and Rental Assitance. I can have fun with my people in the afternoon, and to bless them if can and then work at night. XD Wasnt that GREAT??
God is really AMAZING! I just so BLESSED and LOVED by God, my Pastors, my Leaders! I LOVE THEM ALL!!
