"Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." - Hebrews 11:1

AWESOME!


everytime i head back to KL to participate in Malaysia Church Camp's or Planetshakers Conference, I can't help but remember the two times I was over, it was always a life changing experience, that cause you to burn so much for the desire that pretty much is what one wants. nothing has changed much, but today, i think i had this desire to really get serious in reading the bible from back to back. I have to, there's just this urge to really get serious bout it. so yes, i'll try making the effort. starting from the front now. ahhaa!

anyway, this time's trip to KL has been such a blast, i took 2 days to recover. I spent a day crippled in bed, cause i couldn't move. Thank God there was grace when i texted Boss that I need a rest, and i was allowed. That was on Monday, Tuesday was a leave I have to take, since on monday, alot of work was done, I wasn't needed. Today was a chill day spent playing badminton, and my hand hurts like crap now. Boss is really good with his drop shots. =)

i thank God for each and everyone of the CPC team member, Sarah and Wan Hsi, everyone over at Antioch, and it just felt everyone who was there, was placed there, to encourage and edify each other. The annointing of the Holy Spirit that just swept, which cause faith to rise, has to be the highlight that will go on for the longest period of time.

i can't say how this team is tight, somehow tight, though we just spent a mere 3-4 days together, its amazing. It could have been the entire of us, sleeping under one roof, helped. But i think was each other, praying for each other, encouraging and talking faith, and encouraging one another through the day and pushing for 100% no matter how tired or sleep deprieved we were, the day before.

the urge to just head out there to prophesy, has to be the greatest highlights. That yes, it's not just set apart for the few, but the many of you, if you believe, and take the step of faith, honestly, anything is possible. and it was shown, as heaven was revealed on earth, this bond and the common desire to just cry out for God, to come sweeping down, as people go on their knees, acknowledging one God we all worship for, has truly been amazing.

there's no doubt that there's hunger for the word in places like Malaysia, it is so strong, that time and time again, though the distances are so near, how we differ in hearing the word. I can only say, we Singaporeans christians might get far too comfy, and take the many things we have for granted, that when its stripped to the bare essentials, how do we fare?

once again, it all boils down back to the heart, and the heart of worship. its not about the instruments, its not about the music, its not bout the voices, but the heart. it does change things when multiple hearts come in unison to reach that level, of crying out for more, that desperation. moves, and things changes, you feel God in your face.

once again, i'm reminded by Gan paps of the issues, and yes. Apart from loving the sinner and hating the sins, it would mean giving honour to that person whether that person deserves it or not. For that, i'm always having trouble with, that once again, it is to be reminded of myself, who am i to judge. to come back once again in humility, and the act of it, of total submission, and what is it all about.

not something easy, but what's love isn't it? its easy loving the loved but try the unloving. i have to leave this down, because this trip has been such a blast, and thank you everyone, for the great time, learning experience, feeling God's presence. Every activitiy was so spirit filled =)

So today, apart of badminton, it was breaking fast with Chass! Awesome stuff, ahaha enjoying our comfort food of fried fish soup (she likes the yuan yang one LOL). Yes and the fella beside her who smelled like bazhang.

mine smelled of dove body foam. the person was cleaning up the headphones. out came a KOSS headphone and i went "WAH" and the next thing that amazed me was when he/she took out her ipod touch. guess what was she listening to. "VIVA LA VIDA" - can't miss the album art for nuts.
and beside her, i was listening to "glass of water" - PROSPEKT MARCH. I wanted to tap her and show her my ipod play list and smile, that for a moment, 2 Coldplay fans met each other and were in the same bus, under the same sky, at the same time, enjoying our beloved.

For Coldplay fans, you have got to download the free album of LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT from coldplay.com . For those who went to the concert, i think this is a great album to rekindle those high moments of "whoo oh oh oh oh" from Viva La Vida. I have a gut feeling this is recorded during the Singapore concert, cause it just sounds pretty asian / singlish. till now, i'm listening it over and over, and blasting it this entire night tonight, i don't know if i'm on a high, or just listening to the thumbing of Will's drums, and Chris banging his fingers on the pianos, Johnny dranging on his guit and Guy just doing his groove.

and the best thing happened to me today, was playing with a black white tuxedo cat (dubby taught me that). I exited from the main door of Harborfront Centre and the cat came running to me, i was supposed to be afraid, but looking at its cute meows and eyes looking at me, i couldn't help but bent down, and started playing with the tabby.

There was another brown-white-black patches one who was lame, i wanted to go over to pray for it okay. But it kept running away from me. So i spent the entire good 15 minutes just giving all my attention to that black tabby who was just following me whereever I went!

And I'm reminded that at the end of the day, no matter animals or human beings, we are all just created for one reason, which is to be loved. and we all love to be loved! i couldn't bear to say goodbye to it, when i was leaving for the bus stop, as it trailed me all the way, till it knew it couldn't anymore, i just said bye bye to it. (yes i talk to anything and everything). it turned its back and returned to where it was camping and meow-ed for more passer by and managed to get one pat from an Indian dude =D It was sweet!

so yeah, give your time out to love someone. though at times they may be hard. but if you try sometimes. i think i'm putting the leftover dinner back into the fridge and do my quiet time. =D Love yous!
