HAPPY NEW YEAR! hmmm ushering in the new year this year was kinda different, spent time alone at home, well was with one fren but decided to not go out but juz spend some time alone reflecting the year, as every1 else does..haha...

some ppl hav mentioned in their blogs, appreciation towards some of the people who hav impacted their lives in many ways and i would like to do that too! haha...

Janice Chin, as many ppl hav mentioned also, is this wonder woman of Christ who has challenged and influenced many young people with her own passion for God and His ministry. She's a mother to all...XD

Derrick Teo, for being a true friend throughout the decades...well, years la..not that old yet...and sharing his deep insight and encouraging always..

Calvin Lee, for being such a great brother in Christ and learning and teaching together in the army of Christ has been and will always be a privilege..

Wilkins Lim, for being that brother that cares and encourages as a true blood brother will and for always being there to share my life thru the ups and downs

these are among the many others who have impacted, influenced and shaped me to who i am today...no words can express how thankful i am of the experiences we all share...

many of the people who are younger (edit:haha and older) than me hav also challenged me to be a better me..haha...

Oscar Chew, Emmanuel Lo, Joel Tan, Samuel Yapp, Eric Chong, Kelvin Tan, Cyrus Siew, Pan brothers, Teo brothers, Rachel Chin, Carrie Chin, Clara Ling, Jonathan Fung...many more la..sori if i left out u, u're always precious in my heart and someway or another you've impacted me...there's just too many of you guys (and gals) that i appreciate and wanna thank God for..this year is gonna be another exciting year and im looking forward to ride the boat with Christ all the way~

God has put so many great people in my life and each one of them has a great destiny in Christ as so i am as well...hmmm grammar macam ganjil...but ya...i thank God so much for the path that He has so graciously bestowed upon...wahahaha...cool grammar...but seriously i thank God for every moment remembered with these awesome ppl and im so so so glad that we're under the wings of Christ so we are of same spirit..

Belated Merry Christmas?

*snaps finger* aiyak...just missed midnight..not Christmas liau..anyhow~

Christmas can be everyday one way or another~ It's all about Jesus, hope we have in Him, all for what He has done, so CELEBRATE His greatness everyday n be THANKFUL!! so its tis' the season to be jolly every season~~ wakakakak...presents, iz nice... (compliments of http://icanhascheezburger.com)

been a while since i updated...few days after coming back KK, posting...few days before leaving to KL, posting..hah..funny...

a LOT has been happening during the weeks that i've been here, it has been somewhat LIFE CHANGING..day by day especially for the past two weeks have been MIND BLOWING...to describe it here, it would not be easy, can't find right words, but i would have to talk with you face- to-face, and...you'll have to allocate a pre-e-e-ty long amount of time to listen...so yeah..but it has been an interesting end of the year, and Christmas, as it has always n will always be a season of thanksgiving, love, hope and giving, was an AWESOME time. I've learnt a lot this year, and truly i look forward to 2008 with great expectations and new inspirations.

Coming back to KK around this time of the year has always been exciting but this year around, God has blessed me so abundantly, and I don't mean physically (although He could work on adding some kilos on me...jk God, i know i gotta eat more) or materialistacally (is there such word??) but He has blessed me emotionally and spiritually...this time around i'm so amazed at how the younger generation doing their part for God's kingdom and looking at how much God has done in the lives of the young people, seeing everyone on Christmas Eve celebration, worshipping together, fellowshipping, hanging out with one another, spending time with one another, "breaking bread" at 88..haha, encouraging and discipling one another, learning and obeying together, praying together..reminds me of Acts 2:42-47. It's a great feeling to be in His presence with His people.

hmmm..Yvonne Yapp juz messaged..Happy Boxing Day and realised ohyaoh...not belated Christmas but its actually Boxing day...when i was young i always thought that boxing day was a day where we get to see boxing competitions happening globally....i know...dot dot dot...but anyway..

The celebration is traditional, dating back to the middle ages, and consisted of the practice of giving of gifts to employees, the poor, or to people in a lower social class. The name has numerous folk etymologies^[3]; the Oxford English Dictionary attributes it to the Christmas box; the verb box meaning: "To give a Christmas-box (colloq.); whence boxing-day." -wiki-

..hmmm random post addition..doesn't seem to connect...haha..

so..reverse side-tracking..it was reli a blessing to be back in KK, it was like a retreat for me and refreshing, renewing, revitalising, and so much more r-words, and i've receive an impartation from God via His faithful servants and i'm excited to see what's in store for next year even though architecture thingys..yeah..hmm..haha..God is good, all the time...all the time , God is good..

sigh, KL here i come, as usual im gonna miss KK but i definitely am going to look forward and strive to be the very best of who i am for God and live the destiny He has for me.

SUMMARY: a lot has happenned in Dec 2007, God is good, I love Him, He loves you, watcha gonna do about your own life?

p.s. i've got plentiful pictures of events that happenned so that's gonna wait..its in various cameras so yeah...wait...

Merry Christmas!

Jesus is Our Hope!

Happy Boxing Day! XD

Asia for Jesus

phew this week has been AWESOME! i was attending a conference "Asia for Jesus" and it has been LIFE CHANGING. Ps Jaeson Ma and Ps Philip Mantofa, annointed servants of God came with passion for our nation and gave many relevant keys that point out towards bringing across the Gospel to the lost. I've never been so inspired by a man of God to go all out besides Jesus Himself but these two men of God have a spiritual connection with Christ Jesus so close, they show Christlikeness in their faith, attitude, speech, conduct and knowledge. I've learnt so much i dunno what to write...XD... but mainly the thing that strikes me most..that God has placed so dear in my heart is about REACHING OUT. evangelising. we did pratice rounds by just going out into the city to evangelise...and....its NOT EASY. they (ps jaeson n philip) make it seem easy though...

God has placed a conviction in my heart, for my friends who are yet to be saved...always i've wondered how to properly bring across the Gospel and effectively keep new believers on track with Christ...Matt 28:18-20 summarizes

1. GO
2. MAKE DISCIPLES
3. BAPTIZE
4. TEACH THEM TO OBEY

Ps. Jaeson taught us practical ways to achieve this and to get the discipleship...REAL discipleship cycle going on...2 Tim 2:2 mentions about 4 generations of discipleship...from Paul...to Timothy...to faithful men....and unto others....it goes on and on growing and growing and it multiplies. However i was reminded that one has to be prayerful and faithful.

A prayerful life leads to a life of great faith.
Faith without action is dead.
Revival. Reformation. Revolution.
Revival is God's Arrival.

This conference has been really life changing and has brought challenges to me in my walk with Christ. the Great Commission that God has COMMANDED us to fulfill. Winning souls for Christ. Being a radical Christian. Living a prayerful, righteous and faithful life. Literally getting on your knees and praying fervently. Crying out for the salvation of our nation Malaysia. the salvation of my friends and relatives. Loving people. Not converting. Loving. Effectively bringing the Gospel across society. Making disciples of NATIONS.

it makes you wonder....are you a believer? or a disciple of Christ?

i choose to be a disciple...you?

18 Then Jesus came to them and said," All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always to the very end of the age."
Matthew 28:18-20

Happy Birthday

Vweee~~ im 2 more years away from voting

haha...today was kinda eventful...finished off last exam paper (20th) was feeling kinda sad knowing the fact that every1's going back home and im gonna b left alone for the week...however, our lecturer planned a class trip to UiTM (Universiti Teknologi MARA) for their portfolio exhibition so it filled up my afternoon....at night we went to 1 Utama for dinner then pre-arranged to watch a 7.45pm movie when the current time was 7.30pm...weee~ there goes all our lessons for time management..hahah...watched Beowulf...good movie...lots of "graphics" anyhow feel thankful and happy that despite my frens natural character that they would go home right after projects or exams, they all stayed back n spent time wif me knowing it was my birthday tmr (21st at time of posting) so yeah...reli appreciated it, thanks also to those who remembered and messaged me 2~~ for those of u who DIDN'T....BEWARE!!! haha...u owe me dinner... >=)

exactly at 12am (21st nov) - was cleaning house with housemates....
1.24am (21st nov) - aik? im 19...




-=edit=-

hmmm its morning (10am) *yawn* hmmm its my birthday...what should i do?

actually all i had in mind was juz to spend the whole DAY watching some movies from my ext hard disk or play games since most of every1 had left for their hometown...or so i assumed...

at 3pm a fren rang me up n invited me to go watch "Stardust"!! finally got to watch it...was good movie but that's another post...so yea, hung out with frens n had dinner n they bought a CAKE! hehe...although it had a moldy strawberry...a cake is still a cake...thought that counts..yea..the thought...haha...

so yeah felt very appreciated and im reli glad that God has blessed me wif so many great frens and this birthday,2007 i'll always rmber n cherish...

fellowship is important n crucial regardless whether its in a spiritual aspect or physical, scientists (heard somewhere) did research on babies who didnt hav the luxury of communication (ppl feed them but no talking..no interaction) eventually they all died...

so yea, spending time wif frens these last few days b4 going back kk has been great eventhough it was only for a short while but it was stil worthwhile... i love my friends =)...all of them kk kl whrever...forever

p.s. my birthday wish (altho not customary to tell) was that my friends WOULD come to know, accept and receive Christ as the living God and Saviour of their lives...hmm more like prayer then wish...haha

the "love" mentioned here is in the context of agape love...no getting wrong ideas... >=)
