Hosanna.

I wonder what would it have been like or what would have happened, if i didn't obey You. Just as we were about to take the wrong step, You warned me not to take it. Indeed You are amazing. Perhaps, THINGS would have happened if we didn't change our minds. I really wouldn't know what i'd do without You in my life. A million thanks, and it goes on. And also how important it is to have your godly friends WITH YOU wherever you go. Times when you don't know what to do, you can always turn to them so that we'd figure it out together with God. Awesome! I thank God for placing such people in my life. I got to hang out with friends today which i have not done in SUCH A LONG TIME! Been so busy with everything. We planned, and planned but never worked out. But all of a sudden today, we just did.

I don't know where did i go right to actually deserve so much from You. But again, that's love. Real love. What's best is that YOU are the love that NEVER runs dry. It all began when you CHOSE to think of us first. No force, but with a willing heart indeed. And how You sent Your only Son, Jesus Christ who was put to shame just for the sake of bringing hope into the world. That's just how much You cared for us. You thought of others. To give us a second chance to live a life so pleasing in Your eyes. Yet you only ask for one thing. A relationship with us. To be part of this one life we live. So many times we've taken You for granted in so many ways, but still You look at us with love, compassion, giving us countless and countless of chances that even if it took eternity, we can never thank You enough. That's the love that we need to give to every ends of this earth. We want to look at this world through Your eyes. Your ways. Filled with love, forgiveness and compassion over people. We wanna be more like You. Indeed, we wanna be the salt and light in this world. To raise a generation whose hearts are all out for You. As we gather, with one heart, worshipping one God. I pray that the passion, the fire..spreads. Let it overflow through this whole earth. And also that we continue to live a life for others just like You did. To give people what the world is made up of. Prayer, time, love, help. If there was ever a time where i took You for granted, oh God, i'm sorry. Times when i've hurt You. Times when i've forgotten You. I'm sorry. How i can be so stubborn at times, but You're always putting up with me. But again, You love undeserving people. You hate sin but love the sinners. No one else could ever compare to You. So with all that i am, i give it to You. So many find it hard to believe that You are real because they can't see You. Seeing is believing. But it's the other way around. Believing is seeing. As we begin to believe that You are real, You start to show Your wonders, great power. It still amazes me how You're only asking one thing from us. But then again, You are God. Words aren't enough to tell of Your greatness. Immeasurable. As we hold on to You in this crazy crazy world, i pray for our focus to be on You and only You. As we bring people closer to You, its your name that's to be glorified. Not ours. So let our lives be pointed directly at You. Be mirrors. Reflectors. Warriors for You. (:

so much more i could say. But to sum up the feelings and thoughts that fills my mind right now, i've came up with what i wanted to say.

i love You so much.

You're really all i need now and forever. Sometimes i just feel like disconnecting myself away from everything to go into that secret place where only you and i can go. Just for a while. To just stay quietly in Your arms to feel what it's like being just face to face with You. To sit down and laugh with you non-stop about the most randomest things in the world. I honestly will know that, i wouldn't know what to say when that really happens. :P But you know, that's just me. HAHAAHAHAHA. But even if i did, You'd know exactly what i want to say.

have i ever told You how amazing You are? :)

THANK YOU FOR THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE AND MORE TO COME! :) I give it to You.

That was seriously a moment. Where i just wanted to post things that are in my heart right now. Sometimes when we're overloaded, we're just so in need of a direction. A way. How we just wanna get away from everything. But then again, life isn't full of roses. Even being a Christian, things get tough. But we can't always stay in our comfort zone and enjoy ourselves all the time. We'd never learn or grow. So i say, don't give up hope! For Hope never gives up on you. (:

How Great is Our God.

Hey everyone! My exams are Over, but i have the 'REAL DEAL' exam in the month of May and June. The papers i did over the week, were... hard. It was expected because our teachers told us that they'll be harder than the actual Os to just prepare us. So yep, i found Maths paper 1 hard and Business 2. I struggled in Chinese as well, i felt alright with English. I'm just going to keep my grades in prayer, and if i Don't get my A's, theres always the Real exam to do extremely well! :) but hopefully the grades i get for my mocks will show signs of improvement hehe.

Well today, the NEWGEN group suprised Yvonne (eban) for her 17th Birthday, and i must say i'm proud of myself that i was able to keep the secret in long enough! hehe. It was allllll goooodd Happy 17th Birthday again Von! I hope you like the suprise. It didn't hit me that it was the last day of exams, until the end of Acts service ahahah yes yes i'm happy that their all over and i thank God that he helped me through it man! So cool i remember during my english paper i was stuck because i had to remember quotes on a questions, so i kept my COOL and just talked to God and he helped me remember the quotes just like that! Just so amazing, he gave me the strength to absorb everything was cool was cool!

For now i'm taking the weekend off, to just chill~ catch up on my sleep hehe. God's power is really moving in JIS. Its just so indescribable, breathtaking. Our NewGenGroup started with 2 people by the drain just praying. God answered and it increased to 5 people then 2 weeks later, it increased to 11 people and soon to be 12! Praise God! Presson! hehehehe Take the stand to reach out, be the one to lead those who are lost. Don't be a follower but LEADER. AMEN?! We've gotta keep on rising with FAITH and PRAYER then we'll see BREAKTHROUGH!!! believe me. What else could we ever ask for? Than the Favour of God, His love and blessing that we're heading in the RIGHT direction. He just wants the BEST FOR US.

When something begins to grow...

into something special...

its those times where we want to hold on to... :)

The weirdest things...

I find the most funniest...

When we make the decision to set our hearts for the ones we love...

To share the Love we found thats beyond this world...

to hold onto memories when we leave...

we'll always remember...

the gift we all have...

to laugh

To go beyond our limits and win

to love

to care

to look and find

to walk, to fall to get up to run to fight to breathe to fly beyond because when we make it, our reward will be so much worth it.

i go speechless.

UNCONTAINABLE!


Divorces. I hate them. God hates divorces. Many stars and celebrities on the television changes husbands or wives like they are changing clothes. The media makes it look so easy. So normal. But behind the screen, there reality is. Many divorced each other with KIDS. I think what hurts the most is seeing the kids suffer. Especially when they are still really small but big enough to understand what was about to befall them yet they have to pretend that they don't understand. And not having a chance to say anything even as the separation really did happen. All they could do is cry. And they'd have to live without at least one of their parent. And it suddenly becomes an emotional wound. And start growing up the wrong way. And all that. It's so sad to see this happen. I truly wish divorce doesn't exist but whether i'd like it or not, it's still here and always will be. The only reason why divorces happen, is that.. they pick the wrong ones. Oh yeap, they pick the wrong ones. And how they pick the wrong ones is because of no guidance. We need God. See, as you give your life to Him, and as you being to grow deeper in God, He sends us someone. He is the Holy Spirit. He indeed guides us through this walk of life. Gives us confidence, love, faith...whatever. Again, as you grow deeper and deeper, it will be so easy to hear Him speaking to you. Stopping you from doing something that is wrong. Encouraging us whenever we are at our weakest. Well yea, but really all you kids out there, who have divorced parents, you know who you are, if any of you guys out there reading :P, feeling hopeless and broken and thinking you have no reason to live anymore. Dang, you are wrong.

Psalm 34:18
The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart,And saves such as have a contrite spirit.

And you are definitely not hopeless as in Jesus Christ, all hope is in Him. There is hope in Jesus Christ. Things may seem so hard to accept, but as you faithfully just give it all to Him and hang on to Him, breakthroughs will come to pass. :)

Isaiah 40:29-31
29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.


God may be all powerful, and perfect but really, all He wants is to have a relationship with us. Like daughters and sons. Princesses and princes. To be a Father to us, a best friend, a deliverer, a very present help in times of trouble, our comfort, our EVERYTHING. God never intended for divorces to happen. God never likes to hurt us. Instead it hurts Him to see us hurt too. God loves young people. Whatever religion, races, nationality, wherever you are, God loves us all the same. He wants to give us so much yet all we have to do is surrender our lives to Him. We don't have much to offer actually. But what we can do is, offer up our lives to the one and only God who OFFERED UP His Son to give His life FOR us. His one and only Son, Jesus Christ. Whether we have turned away from Him, whether you love or hate Him, He still loves you. Endlessly. :) Only a perfect God like Him could do that.

Trust me, no one can love you any more than He can. Even though He is not visible here, but He is indeed alive. In so many lives of those who love Him and obeys Him. In my life. :) And you know what? He could be in yours too. He's so so so so so willing to give you a life that you will never ever regret. No promises that it will be easy but it's worth it. What do you gain from all this? Hope. Love. Faith. Strength. Eternal life with Him.

TRUST ME, it's a lot of fun. :) HAHA.

Indescribable - Chris Tomlin





From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
INCOMPARABLE, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God


What more could we ever want, but the Love of the Creator of this world.

I had a wonderful Christmas with Church. I loved the atmosphered that covered that place, His presence was truely there. I know school's coming, and i haven't quite finished my revision i'm on my way. I don't really want to stress about it, because as much as i try to study and force everything into my brain its not going to work. So today i went over to Karen's to do our Music assignment and we finished it, except one question. then we rewarded ourselves by taking a walk down to huaho and filling ourselves with Jollibee and DQ :)... So people don't stress yourself by setting a study plan which is unrealistic okay? Do it in small chunks, and you'll get it done fo' sure.

So i spent my time on Godtube today, and watched a few videos...

I think teenagers are stubborn. Saying this because i am one. Even Christians are stubborn sometimes thats why we need GOD! Most of the time, we come to God because we are in of need, or we're broken and we want to feel whole again. Gods not just there for that. When we've invited him into our lives He becomes part of us. He wants to know when we're happy too. He is our Father and Bestest friend (cool to know that because He'll never let you down) And sometimes we Teenagers think we can do it all on our own and the funny thing is when we know we're gonna get hurt we still do it anyway. This is when the World gets in the way of us and God. I do this too sometimes, and realise afterwards and come before God to repent. Just recently i found that God is a God of Joy. He created Laughter. So i started to talk to God anytime of my day, about anything. I talk to him as my friend, i found by doing so, no matter how quiet the house is, i no longer feel lonely, which is an amazing feeling (:

oh and after watching one of the videos on Godtube i learnt that we got to use every opportunity to reach out to the ones we love, because one day when its too late, when we could have told them about Jesus and they would have known the TRUTH, they would have not perished in hell but live Eternally in Heaven with our Creator. I believe 2008 will be a Strong year of Salvation, i feel it.

God i just want to say i love you,
through everything i have done,
you have forgiven me,
through the death of your beloved son.

God i just want to say Thank you,
for the amazing things showed me,
the way you've open my heart,
to let me see.

God i just want to say You are Indescribable,
praised and honor goes to you,
i offer my life,
with everything i do.

God i just want to say You are Irreplacable,
our Creator your love is to the ends of the universe,
Please let me long for You,
hungry and thirst.

I humble before you King of Kings,
may i shine in Your Glory,
for all the things i've done wrong,
i come before you and Lord, i'm sorry.

Use me to your extent,
walk with me,
in You i'll be found,
in You i will be free.
