Families Transformation

God has placed in my heart a vision to see families transformed through the raising up of youth to take up the responsibility to see their family saved. Not just saved, but undergo transformation and reconciliation.

I was at my mum and her twin sister's (my auntie) 60th lunar birthday celebration yesterday. Most of the people invited are my mum's immediate family and my uncle's immediate family.

It was a very funny and emotional moment for some of my relatives and cousins because the whole thing was very orchestrated and old school. My mum's eldest brother conducted us to clap and cheer etc... it was really funny...

Just a little background on why they decided to organize the celebration:

Both my mum and my auntie has nose cancer and the purpose of the celebration was to 'reunite' as a family and to allow them to experience care, love and support.

My auntie's condition is worse than my mum's as the cancer cells have already spread to the other parts of her head such as brain, eyes which has affected her eyesight, hearing, speaking etc.. As for my mum, her condition is stable and controlled.

It was rather heartbreaking to see my auntie's current condition. I rememher how she took care of me when I stayed over at her house during school holidays, fed me when I was a toddler etc.. She seems so different now...

When I went over to encourage her by asking her not to think too much and to be more positive and cheerful, she responded by 'sayanging' my face with tears in her eyes telling me to take care and thanked me for consoling her.

At that point my heart broke and I could somehow feel the pain, the heartache, the loneliness, the cries in her heart. She wasn't happy, being so lonely in the last few moments of her life.

God just spoke to me at that moment, giving me a vision to raise up youth, as young as they may be to be people who repair relationships. To have a burden for their families and stop thinking that their parents are hard to reach because of 'generation gaps'.

I personally made this mistake and i think many other people do too. We wait till a crisis sets in then we learn to treasure and cherish. The Law did not say that we should honor our father and mother when they are in crisis, in fact we have to honor them the very day when we receive Jesus into our hearts.

We ought to be a wholesome Christians, not just to be a testimony and a light to our friends, but to our family as well. What good if you can save all your friends in the world, but yet leaving your loved ones and close ones dying and going towards hell?

For the fact that they carried us in their wombs for 9 months, spent 18 years of raising us up by working so hard to give us education, shelter and food. Will you make a difference in your home and your families just by showing them the kindness and love that you received from Christ. And I believe through love, your families will not just be saved, but transformed.

Help us to see...

In The Bleak Midwinter

Its a beautiful old song. Enjoy =)

In the bleak midwinter
Frost wind made moan
Earth stood
Hard as iron
Water like a stone
Snow had fallen
Snow on snow
Snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long ago

Our god
Heaven cannot hold him
Nor earth sustain
Heaven and Earth
Shall flee away
When he comes to reign
In the bleak midwinter
A stable place sufficed
The lord God almighty
Jesus Christ

Angels and archangels
May have gathered there
Cherubim and seraphim
Thronged the air
But his mother only
In her maiden bliss
Worshiped the beloved
With a kiss

What can I give him
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd
I would bring a lamb
If I were a wise man
I would do my part
Yet
What I can I give him
Give my heart

Live with no regrets

I realize you really need to have inspiration to post anything on blogs. Not like some people who can blog with such creativity that no body will ever understand unless the blogger explain to you what they are blogging about, or some blog about every single detail and movement such as they go toilet, then flush the toilet and then brush their teeth and is goes on and on. LOL

Have been quite an eventful pass 2 to 3 weeks due to:
1) New Church Plant - We go for meeting after another. Well, as much as it can be really tiring and draining at times, but the more we plan and pray and discuss, the more excited we become. This is a God thing and I count myself a privilege to be a part of it. =)

2) Loudfest - It was an awesome conference. By far the best conference ever attended in my entire life as a Christian. It causes me to think out of the box and breaking my mindset. God spoke so much to me personally in this conference compare to the all that He spoke to me from January till the day of the conference. Simply Awesome.

3) Work - 'Coincidentally', my dad's company also went through a series of transition. Changing of a bigger management and become a part of a bigger group call the UMW. Much planning to do as well because we will be moving from Bukit Timah to Jurong. Preparing to have a warehouse to keep stock of Pipes, Fittings & Flanges (if you don't know what is it, go google it.).

So exciting!!! But after all, how much can a human body exert himself to do all these. Need to find my place of rest in God and to be satisfied in His presence. If you happen to drop by here, please do me 1 favor to take 1 min of your prayer time to pray for me. I really need it and I thank you in advance. =)

Have been thinking of the decision I have made in life.. Out of 100%, 60% was a bad decision. And often times will feel kind of regret in the decision that I made. But some hard decision that I made I know it is from God and it a right decision, but the after effect of it is kind of tormenting. LOL

As much as it is difficult, I know God will honor the fact that we obeyed Him and He will take responsible of the decision we make. And whatever outcome... good or bad, I will still trust Him and praise Him, and never stop loving Him... Live life with no regrets..

Simply to the Cross I cling

Why people willing to pay for Branded Stuff!!?

The reason why LV bags are LV bags and people are willing to pay a high price to buy them even though the looks of it is simple and normal is because of their QUALITY. The kind of leather and skin they use and minimum requirement of material they use to make the bag are of top QUALITY.

In order to be what they are, they have to pass a series of test and ISO procedure. So there is a STANDARD to meet. If the bag can't meet the STANDARD, means that they are rejected (of course we dont reject people in the kingdom, we call it disqualify. LOL).

God spoke to me in regards to my Zone level. I want my people to be BRANDED! (By fire) As much as we look so normal and simple, crazy and loud and irritating at times, but people out in the world when they looked at us, they must say of us, "These guys are not cheap stuff or fake or superficial. They are BRANDED! Got SUBSTANCES and QUALITY!"

Before we can be under the category of QUALITY and BRANDED, we must first meet the STANDARDS which is all in the word of God and also our daily living.

If we want the world to begin to see 'Church' differently in Singapore, there must be STANDARDS & QUALITY. Excellence! =)

Most of these points are mainly from personal point of view through what God spoke me through the conference. Hopefully it can encourage and challenge you to expect great things in this new thing God is doing.

"My King" - Dr. S. M. Lockridge

My King was born King. The Bible says He’s a Seven Way King.

He’s the King of the Jews – that’s a racial King. He’s the King of Israel – that’s a National King. He’s the King of righteousness. He’s the King of the ages. He’s the King of Heaven. He’s the King of glory. He’s the King of kings and He is the Lord of lords. Now that’s my King. Well I wonder if you know Him. Do you know Him? Don’t try to mislead me. Do you know my King?

David said the Heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament show His handiwork. My King is the only one whom there are no means of measure can define His limitless love. No far seeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His shore of supplies. No barriers can hinder Him from pouring out His blessing.

Well, well, He’s enduringly strong. He’s entirely sincere. He’s eternally steadfast. He’s immortally graceful. He’s imperially powerful. He’s impartially merciful. That’s my King.

He’s God’s Son. He’s the sinner’s saviour. He’s the centrepiece of civilization. He stands alone in Himself. He’s august. He’s unique. He’s unparalleled. He’s unprecedented. He’s supreme. He’s pre-eminent.

Well, He’s the loftiest idea in literature. He’s the highest personality in philosophy. He’s the supreme problem in high criticism. He’s the fundamental doctrine of proved theology. He’s the carnal necessity of spiritual religion. That’s my King.

He’s the miracle of the age. He’s the superlative of everything good that you choose to call Him. Well, He’s the only one able to supply all of our needs simultaneously. He supplies strength for the weak.

He’s available for the tempted and the tried. He sympathizes and He saves. He’s strong God and He guides. He heals the sick. He cleanses the lepers. He forgives sinners. He discharged debtors. He delivers the captives.

He defends the feeble. He blesses the young. He serves the unfortunate. He regards the aged. He rewards the diligent and He beautifies the meek. Do you know Him?

Well, my King is the key of knowledge. He’s the wellspring of wisdom. He’s the doorway of deliverance. He’s the pathway of peace. He’s the roadway of righteousness. He’s the highway of holiness. He’s the gateway of glory.

He’s the master of the mighty. He’s the captain of the conquerors. He’s the head of the heroes. He’s the leader of the legislatures. He’s the overseer of the overcomers. He’s the governor of governors. He’s the prince of princes.

He’s the King of kings and He’s the Lord of lords. That’s my King. Yeah. Yeah. That’s my King. My King, yeah.

His office is manifold. His promise is sure. His light is matchless. His goodness is limitless. His mercy is everlasting. His love never changes. His Word is enough. His grace is sufficient. His reign is righteous. His yoke is easy and His burden is light.

Well. I wish I could describe Him to you, but He’s indescribable. Yes. He’s incomprehensible. He’s invincible. He’s irresistible.

I’m coming to tell you, the heavens of heavens cannot contain Him, let alone a man explaining Him. You can’t get Him out of your mind. You can’t get Him off of your hands. You can’t outlive Him and you can’t live without Him.

Well, Pharisees couldn’t stand Him, but they found out they couldn’t stop Him. Pilot couldn’t find any fault in Him. The witnesses couldn’t get their testimonies to agree. Herod couldn’t kill Him. Death couldn’t handle Him and the grave couldn’t hold Him. That’s my King. Yeah.

He always has been and He always will be. I’m talking about He had no predecessor and He’ll have no successor. There was nobody before Him and there’ll be nobody after Him. You can’t impeach Him and He’s not going to resign. That’s my King! That’s my King!

Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory. Well, all the power belongs to my King. We’re around here talking about black power and white power and green power, but it’s God’s power. Thine is the power. Yeah.

And the glory. We try to get prestige and honour and glory for ourselves, but the glory is all His. Yes. Thine is the Kingdom and the power and glory, forever and ever and ever and ever.

How long is that? And ever and ever and ever and ever. And when you get through with all of the evers, then, Amen.
