Just came back from Retreat today Lord!

The past 5 days of my life flew pass as though 50 years have passed.

I have got a lot of things to say but I dont know how I should write them out. Blogging alone takes a lot out of me as it requires commitment for me to write. But Lord coming back to the initial purpose of setting this blog up was so that I can record my life journey and see how the Lord has led me through all these years faithfully.
Throughout this retreat we played a game called Lifegame which led us to run through our whole lives in this game till the day we all die. We started out at the age of 15 and every hour was 5 years of aging. In this game, we had to grow up into the working world, marriage life, kids, and die eventually.

Here goes what I have learnt in this retreat.

1) Life is really so short, money is needed for survival but making so much money with no godly purposes to use the money leads to a very deep emptiness within me.

2) Investing in God’s kingdom brings much joy to my heart. Know what you are investing today! Does it have eternal value..

For the past 1 year my spiritual life has been on a decline. Today was one of the times when I came back to God and sought after him with all that I am.  I really want to grow and become more and more like Christ each day. This time, I dont wanna mature in Christ alone, I wanna grow together with all my beloved brothers and sisters in Christ.

Right now I am feeling quite empty and sad actually. Maybe its because I miss the people at retreat.  But more less I felt life to be so meaningless after playing the game. Lots of things that I am doing and have now does not hold eternal value at all.

I need a restructure in my entire being and life, a renewed purpose and vision Lord. I want to be a giver and not a taker. Business has caused me to be selfish with my time and service to you. I wanna tell you this Lord before I go to bed. I pray that I will be faithful and committed to you in my daily life, having spiritual disciplines in praying and reading the Word as it is my breath and food of life. Lead me O Lord, guide me and mould me into the person you very much want me to become. Not my will, but yours be done. Amen.

Maybe cos I am tired right now.. Disarray..

I seem to be losing my grip.. I am physically tired now.. I need to have a fresh touch of your best and plan for me Lord. I don’t wanna just live my own way anymore..I want your way Lord. I really do.

These few days I have been listening to Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis and I found a guy’s version Alejandro Manzano too. I love the way she sang it. These days there are times I thought of having a girlfriend. I think about the times when I could spend time with that special person alone. Truth be told, there’s no one yet. And I don’t see anyone whom I might be interested in. Gah your ways Lord are higher than my ways. To you I commit. Amen!

Time vanishes! 9 weeks of holidays has just passed. I must say I am pretty glad with how I spent my time this holiday. This whole holidays has been packed with meeting up with people (ministry), family, meeting with clients, working on my online ventures which seems fun to me. Very organized and time well spent. I like

Had an enjoyable and fruitful time today discussing and studying the Word together with Kenneth. Was touching on the lesson of prayer and I am glad Kenneth was able to understand and absorbed the lesson well

School is reopening next week. With that I still have lots of online work not completed yet. There’s so much energy and excitement in doing online stuff. I am currently branching into Affiliate Marketing. I thank you Lord for making this journey a trying but enjoyable one. I aim to score well for all my modules this coming semester and to learn how to balance even better with this extra time!

Am off to pick up some products to promote..

5 more days to school reopening. Still quite a load of work left to do before school reopens. Lord I aim to score well for my modules this semester. To learn how to balance really well in studies, family, ministry, and business. I am gonna need your help to continue to grow in this aspect.

This morning I was reading Psalms 1:1-3.

1 Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.

4 Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.

Thank you for showing me this passage today. The past few days I have been pretty upset with how some people whom I dealt with online had no integrity in their dealings and I was affected by some evil deeds that were done towards me on my online business. This passage not only taught me that evildoers will never last long before they perish but it also shed light that even when we soak ourselves in the word of God, there will be times when it seems we are stagnating and not growing at all. And there your verse reveals that a tree that is planted by streams of water produces its fruit in its season.

In Christian living, there are seasons of dryness and growth spurt. As we keep soaking ourselves in your Word and abiding in it, no matter how we feel or think the fact remain that our leaves will not wither and fruits will show after each pruning season. Thank you Lord for the long pruning season I just went through. Things are getting a lot better and happier now

Went to service this morning at 11.30 a.m. Brought Mr Goh a SIRC center manager to church. Am glad Lord that he’s really open about Christianity and I pray God that salvation will come knocking on his door and that he would respond to it.

I had a good long talk with him regarding setting up a business locally targeted towards SMEs (Small Medium Enterprises) in setting up websites for clients using CMS systems. I don’t know why Lord, today I feel so sad and I rarely feel this way.

I want to commit my whole life to you Lord. You reign in me Abba Father! I love you. Thank you for dying on the cross for me on good friday. Because of your sacrifice, I an unworthy person am being redeemed. My heart is filled with gratitude that words cannot simply express. All I can say is I want to follow you all the days of my life.  Amen!

How to know which side am i living according to?

“Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.” Rom 8:5

What does the Lord desire in me?

A heart of obedience, a humble and contrite spirit.

What does the Spirit desires?

The will of God established on earth as it is in heaven.

How can I apply this to my life today?

The moral will of God is summed up in the bible. Live my life according to it. Kingdom-minded. Honor my parents by sleeping before 12am. Gee!

“The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God. You, however are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. ” Rom 8:6-9

Hallelujah! Thank you Lord! My mind is controlled by your Spirit because your spirit lives in me. Therefore I can submit to God’s laws and obey you whole-heartedly. Amen!

Thank you Lord! The song written below depicts a picture of a man who yearns so much for you knowing that to see you he has to come with a pure heart and clean hands. At times when he couldn’t feel you at all, sadness and frustration steps in. Yet he pressed on to seek you and he finally enters into your presence, so filled with joy and gladness!

Verse 1:
Deep down inside
Deep down in my heart
There’s a yearning for you
Deep down inside
Deep down in my heart
I just want to be so free

Chorus 1:
A pureth heart is what you desire
With clean hands we are made to worship you
But I keep falling in my journey
Oh how I crave for liberty

Verse 2:
Where are you Lord
You said you will be found here
In our midst
Where are you Lord
You promised you will be here with me
Forever and ever

Bridge:
My glorious
We bow before you
My glorious
Cleanse me as white snow
My glorious
To see your face

Chorus 2:
Enter into your courts
Fill me with your spirit
Led by your Holy Word
In victory

To whoever out there who feels God is far away, never give up in pressing on. When you seek him with all that’s in you, he will draw close to you. God is attracted to a person who desires him so much. Do you desire him with all that’s within you? Remember His promise that he will be with you wherever you are…till the end of the age.

Joshua 1:9b “Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”  That’s his promise, if you think that’s from the old testament and is expired, here’s what the new testament says as well

Matthew 28:20b ” And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age”

“Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.” - James 4:8

Awesome!! yeah I know it’s 3am right now!! The show Facing the Giants Rocks! This show was written and shown for your glory! Haven’t seen such a Christian show out in the movies for a long time!

It started with a football coach who failed many times in leading his football team to victory. He began to pray to God and one day an unexpected visitor a pastor came to his office and gave him a Word that God is not through with him but God has opened a door for him. This coach got his whole team down on a preaching session! Told them all to get right with God, that all these while they have been focusing about themselves, about winning, but it’s no longer about winning it’s about glorifying God in all that we do!

One of the main themes of this show speaks about Never Give Up! The other thing in this show that rock me hard was when the coach stick by this principal to thank God in whether they lose or win. Needless to say, the whole team won the FootBall State Championships in the end. What’s great was humility followed their victory, all of them got on their knees and thanked God in the locker room.

Thank you Lord for this show! It has once again shaken me right from the inside to do my very best in all that I do! My very Best!

Here’s a picture of the dvd cover - What got me to rent this movie from the vcd shop was the 3 phrases on the cover that says:

The last but main theme!
“With God all things are possible” - Matthew 14:26
