Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

Okay good. I see that this blog is kinda inactive so here's a post for all of you out there.
The 100K challenge is running and is coming faster than I thought. Friday is the marketing conference already.
And yay! Some of us actually signed up. By faith and not by sight. It's not like somebody thinks its popular and signed for it. But its the heart for the people out there.
Yay! Good job.
Hospitality is up for this month. I just wanna say that I am gonna do for the whole month. Give generously your good service.
Ok that's all for today.
Pls keep this blog alive.

Or, have you heard about the 100K? Tagline, witty, but a way to strike a conversation with anyone.
Was @ churchwide prayer meeting, the biggest in the history of FCBC, according to Pastor Khong, about 2,500 FCBCians answered the call, committed to pray for the campaign. Out of that, 4 from HSF. It's not about the numbers, though it's somehow everything about it, but I know that God is ultimately concerned about the heart of the people.
In the end, I went, part of history making, I see it. Some of the adult networks had already started their campaign, and yes, testimonies were shared. I was very impressed and amazed at what they shared, in fact, if you were there, you'll be greatly encouraged too. It's not about the church-driven campaign, nor is it about "if you want to attend Ed Silvoso's seminar, you have to be in the 100K" kinda thing.
It really talks about the condition of our own heart too, talking about being a blessing to the people around us, like what Shirley always says, talk is cheap. I'll take it from Nike "Just Do it!" It has to be a way of life, or rather THE way of life. Let's bless!

Well, I can see that this blog needs revival. So I am going to add a new post today.
I was kinda fascinated by Pastor Khong's preaching on last sunday and he preached about making a difference. Well, he used Noah as an example and he was the ONLY one to be favoured in God's eyes in those times.
And he made an ark to save his family and the animals. Just as God had commanded him to do. So, 1st I want to say that you can make a difference in your family. Even though you are the ONLY christian in the family, the WHOLE family will be blessed, just like how God blessed Noah's family, because he was the ONLY one who was favoured. Not even his wife, his parents, his children were favoured. But the whole family was saved and blessed because of this one man was favoured.
Next, you can make a difference in your future generations. When you are in favour with God, he will mark your family with the covenant that was made with you and Jesus Christ.
In Hebrews 12:2, Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
You have to be daring to stand out in the crowd. Walking with God is the difference between you and the others. God makes the difference, but only if you choose to or not. The choice is yours. Being saved costs us nothing, being a disciple costs us everything.
You also have to be daring to do something for the 1st time. Have you ever remembered doing something for the 1st time? I remember my 1st time blogging was actually at my bro's place, and he thought me to blog. And look at me now, I got 2 blogs now. It's the 1st step that makes the difference. Some people might look to you and laugh because the 1st time does not guarantee success. But failure is still good. It's the 1st time, everyone makes mistakes. But the 1st time spurs you to go for it for a 2nd time. Yeah.
Lastly, you have to determine to look at the rainbow. For those who didn't know, the rainbow is a sign of the covenant made by Noah and God.
Genesis 9:8-17
8 Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him: 9 "I now establish my covenant with you and with your descendants after you 10 and with every living creature that was with you—the birds, the livestock and all the wild animals, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature on earth. 11 I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be cut off by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth."
12 And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: 13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. 16 Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth."
17 So God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth."
However, our new covenant is with Jesus. The cross is what we look to that reminds us of the death and resurrection and our salvation. Thank God for the cross.

Brokenness -
1. Removes the consciousness of Self
2. Releases God's Presence
3. Realizes Power of God
As I was sitting there listening to Pastor's message, I found it really familiar. Where have I heard it from? "The Beatitudes: Christian Character & Conduct." I do not know how many have been broken, I can say that I have been, but I'm not there yet. As you can see...there are still ALOT of 'I' in this blog. No, there is nothing wrong with that cause my blog should also reflect my life too.
Yet, I was just doing some reflection at that point of time. Me, when was the last time God break me? When was it? Pain is not the 1st thing that we normally ask for and definitely not a fun thing to go through...
I certainly pray that I will never be like the Pharisee, proud at heart. Start recognising our spiritual poverty, so that the Rule & Reign of God can be establish in our lives.
Luke 18:9-14
9To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everybody else, Jesus told this parable: 10"Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.'13"But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.'14"I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."
It actually brought me to think of my upcoming race as well, back to the very basic, what do I run for? I seriously pray that I will be focused on what the Lord has set me to go through during this race, not about myself nor my own accomplishment but ALL of God's goodness in my life.
When I have nothing, when I am nothing, that's when I can truly rely of my Heavenly Father.Life is a journey that when God brings challenges into my life, I will have teachability, taking what I learn through the truth of God to bring conviction into my life and builds my character.
I thank God for the life I have, I pray that it will be a life that will speak of Him.
2 Corinthians 3:1-3
1Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, like some people, letters of recommendation to you or from you? 2You yourselves are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by everybody. 3You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

I had a dream. In my dream, I was in an interview with Jesus.
I asked, "Do you have the time for me?"
"Of course" He said, "I have eternity for you."
I asked Him,"What do you think of us.. people?
Jesus smiled, but i thought I saw tears well in His eyes.
He spoke, "My heart aches for people."
The father has offered everything but so many reject His love.
Many thirst but will not drink.
They hunger but will not eat.
They are burdened but will not rest.
Jesus took my hand and I could feel the scars in His own.
He comforted me as I wept.
"But Lord," I said.
"How can we be filled? How can we know the love of the Father?"
Jesus replied,"I am bread to eat, water to refresh forevermore."
"I am the way, truth and life. Awake, child. Dream no more."
"I am here. I will be with you now."
"Call on my name. JESUS."
"I came not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance."
-Jesus Christ
