Hey everyone! This blog is gonna come alive again! :D
How has everyone been? Well last night cell at Ethel's house was awesome! so was todays 'my hope' training!
I've been feeling so satisfied with where I am with God! But during cell worship yesterday, Daniel Tan said some words that really reminded me of my encounters with GOd last year and I felt God so strongly yesterday!
Haha! I suddenly feel like writing a song haha! anyway, Here it is, tot i just share it with U bros and siss in Christ:
hey! exams are over! and so is school for most of us.
Felt quite sad as next year I may not be in the same class as some of my good friends.
I sort of regret not spending enough time bonding with my class mates, getting to know them better.
Have alot of stuff to do this hols haha! actually my whole December is planned out already. haha!
Since exams are over, we are free now! and lets take time to revive this blog! Lets not always want the blog to be revived but do nothing. cos it starts with us!
I lost my wallet last tue. And I thought there was no hope of it being found.. And somehow i still prayed for it to be found everyday. And today I received a call that my ez-link card was found. So I went to tamp mrt to collect it! Although the person did not return the wallet and my ez link card value was all used up, at least i got it back. I hope ill get back my wallet or at least the stuff inside. But I guess this really showed me that God will not give you a task and leave you to deal with it alone! He will see you through it! And guide you each step! :D

Hello people, :)
Nubian Gents is coming up, let's invite our friends and let them have a chance to know who God is! Give them a lil' bit of Jesus and also remember, we not only have to tell them how much God loves them, we must show it to them!
We shouldn't deny anyone a chance to know who God is.
Oh, can y'all update or smthing? The cell blog's getting dead. You can ask me for the user and id if you're not sure of it or something.
Hey guys, how have school been? here are some verses and stuff to encourage you guys =)
God created school and education so He is always there! ... For surely I will be with you till the end of age. Matthew 28:20
Lets keep talking to God as the days go by.
I will never leave you, never will I forsake you. The LORD is my helper, i will not be afraid, what can man do to me? Hebrews 13:5-6
Trust in God, the devil will try to put distress into your heart. reject them with the word of God. Do check out the book of Matthew to see how Jesus rejected the devil while He ws fasting for 40 days.

Hello cell! I'm back. :D I'm posting here 'cause Ryan asked to and also because I'm bored. Tommorrow's Saturday! Finally, after a long long time, its Saturday! I havent been to church for two weeks already. -.- Anyway, I've been listening to this song 'One Life, One Love' and I think its a very meaningful one! I can't find the soundtrack on imeem, if you do upload it okay! Anyway, the lyrics are:
Who am I that you would know me from the start set me apart
who am I that you would place eternity into my heart
you have given to me more than this world could give my purpose is found in you
one life, i lay at your altar one love, i have in you
touch me again fill me as you hold my outstreched hands
one word you know i will follow one heart broken to you
use me again your mercy following follow my day
in your presence in your power holy spirit, i surrender
See you people tommorrow! Ethel here. :D
I want to eat on a merry-go-round. Heh, random thought!
Judging people and being free in the face of problems
Ryan here,
I feel that I've been judging people quickly.. And that shouldn't be the case..
"Dear God I pray that You help me not judge people so quickly and by what I see from the outside.. In Jesus name Amen."
One thing is that I gotta change my whole view about school and school friends.. I always felt that almost all school friends are the worst friends. But today during a meeting of science and geog project and I felt that it was fun being with school friends and I gotta start reaching out to them. Although they can be unreasonable at times but lets still love them!
Think of it in this point of view, most of them don't know God and thats why life to them is boring and stuff.. So lets not blame them but be a light to them and let them see the difference in us.
I always hear in Church the speaker saying that when you become a Christian your life wont be trouble-free but you'll be free in the face of troubles. But I never really understood that until recently.. My chinese tuition teacher always say im happy. Even on days when im troubled or when im down.. Recently as I think about it, I finally understand what the speaker means by when you become a Christian you'll be free in the face of problems!
Most of us when we're down or all the time, we just talk to God may in the bus or wherever, but imagine if there was no one to talk to when we're alone. Thats the position that non-believers are at! Let's not hate them when they sound sian to study and stuff. Its usual that we may get angry with them but thats ok! Why? Because God created us to have emotions so its normal and not wrong to get angry. But lets not get angry and hate them!
Went to skate with Dale and 2 of his friends this evening. Had fun learning some stuff.
We all have a spiritual tank that needs to be filled regularly, find out what fills yours! It could be stuff like, fishing, going out with friends, going to the beach and more! Mine is skating, playing the guitar and going out with friends and more. If your not sure what fills ur spiritual tank, pray to God to show you what fills your tank!
Words are very important and strong. God created the Earth with words, "let there be light, and there was light" So every word that comes out of our mouth, lets use to pull someone up and not to pull someone down.
Simple words like, fool, idiot, loser, etc... can pull someone down. Some of you may think, must get use to it mah, next time grow up will have this kind of things in the world. Yes that is true but lets not follow the ways of this world! Some people come to Church for healing, and imagine if someone comes up and cast down words of discouragement upon that person, how do you think that person will feel?
Friends are the reason why people backslide and why people come to Christ. Lets go there and be a friend and help those hurt ones!
I remember Pastor Joyce once said that if we hurt others its like hurting God. something like that..
In whatever we do, lets know our limits although at time we may go too far but lets try our best to know our limits to a joke, etc...
I'm not trying to shoot anyone here, but as a friend or a brother in Christ, I want to create this awareness to you guys out there.
This song has helped me quite alot. Do check out the lyrics and listen to the song :)
Oh,what I would do to have the kind of faith it takes To climb out of this boat I'm in Onto the crashing waves To step out of my comfort zone Into the realm of the unknown Where Jesus is, And he's holding out his hand
But the waves are calling out my name and they laugh at me Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed The waves they keep on telling me time and time again "Boy, you'll never win, you'll never win."
But the voice of truth tells me a different story the voice of truth says "do not be afraid!" and the voice of truth says "this is for my glory" Out of all the voices calling out to me I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
Oh, what I would do to have the kind of strength it takes To stand before a giant with just a sling and a stone Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors shaking in their armor Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
But the giant's calling out my name and he laughs at me Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed The giant keeps on telling me time and time again "Boy you'll never win, you'll never win."
But the voice of truth tells me a different story the voice of truth says "do not be afraid!" and the voice of truth says "this is for my glory" Out of all the voices calling out to me I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
but the stone was just the right size to put the giant on the ground and the waves they don't seem so high from on top of them looking down i will soar with the wings of eagles when i stop and listen to the sound of Jesus singing over me
But the voice of truth tells me a different story The voice of truth says do not be afraid And the voice of truth says this is for my glory Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me) I will choose to listen and believe (I will choose to listen and believe) I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth
I will listen and believe I will listen and believe the voice of truth I will listen and believe 'Cause Jesus you are the voice of truth And I will listen to you.. oh you are
