AHHHHHHHH SO SOLID MAN!!! Hahahahahah thank God all 4 of us was accurate at giving a Word from God, then we had to like guess who was sitting behind us hahahah OMG so funny, Pearly and I couldn't do it cause we looked behind to see who it was before Darryl gave us any instructions [but on our own personal trial we did manage to kind of figure out who was behind us lah by the help of the Holy Spirit of course] :P hahahah but Carolyn and Yi Quan had a chance to do it, and it was funny, cause wrong BUT it's ok cause we're PRACTICING and the Word from God was accurate mah~ hahahahah It was really a test of our faith, and God is INDEED always ALWAYS FAITHFUL!!!

all because i said Amen....

I know that i said this post will be a list of names of people whom i miss, but before any of that, i just want to give glory to my God.....

Six and a half years ago, i said a simple prayer, the sinner's prayer and ended with an "amen"

And life has never been the same again......

I'm not saying that after that i NEVER had any problems anymore, that life from then on was a bed of roses, but from that day onwards, life began to have a purpose, life began to blossom that life became fresh and new to me!

Right now, for those of you who don't know I'm in Singapore, and i just finished having Supper with Jeremy, Ling, Joyce and of course Tyler =)

it's true, when the bible says that when 2/3 gather in Jesus' name, Jesus will be in the midst of them....to me it doesn't just mean in prayer meetings or any church meetings, but i believe that whenever we meet up with other Christian friends, who puts Jesus in the centre, Jesus will always be there...

So after talking with them, about how life in Singapore is....how I'm adapting to a new environment, new friends, new everything.....it really just hit me that God's hand is upon me, that He's really looking after me!

And I'm just so honoured and humbled by what God has done! I mean I'm just a normal guy with normal goals, a normal life, a human, a sinner, someone who's not perfect, yet God CHOSE to look at me, and place me special in His eyes that I'm made perfect, and all because i said "amen" six and a half years ago....

to come here I'm blessed with an abundance in cash, great roommates (cause they always let me hog the fan hahahahah and DON'T complain about it), an AWESOME CELL GROUP and ZONE!!! With such a loving, open, motherly Cell Group leader, Darryl and an anointed and powerful, man of God, my zone supervisor Ming Jing....God's just really blessing me, and taking such GOOD care of me.....

Also my SOT team 21 and my CG W372, ALL OF THEM ARE AWESOME, each and everyone of them, unique in their own individual way, bringing joy and laughter and a sense of belonging in my life.....and this is just for the first MONTH!! And Jeremy and Ling agrees that I'm in a really GOOD CG and Zone.....

I'm just so THANKFUL for what my Heavenly Father has done, that when i ask Him for anything in His will, He will indeed provide for my needs....

No lack....
No regrets....
No needs unmet....

........just ABUNDANCE

THANK YOU SO MUCH DAD!!!!!

Matthew 6:33
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Indeed i want to say........




without God ................... nothing

just made for [Я]......

Well you know who you are lah, still want to keep your privacy mah hahahahaha, really hope you get to read this soon, especially before Sunday, cause very important for you to know.....and always remember that.......

® = Princess of God

Never let anyone look down on you ok......NEVER!!! You're very precious and special to God.....and again you're a smart, beautiful, intelligent, wonderful, kind and loving person :) and God loves you for who you are and He has already accepted you into His kingdom!!!! Here are two verses that you should look up on :) (read it out loud yeah.....)

2 Corinthians 12:8-10

Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

and also

Psalms 3

O Lord, I have so many enemies;
so many are against me.
So many are saying,
“God will never rescue him!”

But you, O Lord, are a shield around me;
you are my glory, the one who holds my head high.
I cried out to the Lord,
and he answered me from his holy mountain.

I lay down and slept,
yet I woke up in safety,
for the Lord was watching over me.

I am not afraid of ten thousand enemies
who surround me on every side.

Arise, O Lord!
Rescue me, my God!
Slap all my enemies in the face!
Shatter the teeth of the wicked!

Victory comes from you, O Lord.
May you bless your people.



So here's the information that you need....

Being baptise means being "dipped" or "plunged." The word baptize comes from the Greek word baptizo.

The first thing that you need to know is that Jesus himself was baptised, and He said that He had to do it to "fulfill all righteousness"

Matthew 3:15-17 (read it yeah :] )

So if it was so important for Jesus to get baptised, Jesus the Son of God, what more us, sinners.....so I'm really GLAD TO HEAR THAT YOU'RE GETTING BAPTISED!!!

To be baptised there's 4 conditions that must be first fulfilled...

1)Repentance
This is the first decision that you made when you accepted Jesus into your life, where you experience true repentance, turning away from your old ways.

As baptism is the OUTWARD demonstration of the INWARD change produced by repentance.

2)Faith in God
Easy to understand lah, means you gotta have faith in God....

3)A Good Conscience
Meaning when you get baptised, you should have the confidence in knowing that you're saved and that God has already forgiven you of your sins, like when you're baptised you should feel good lah, not like angry or pressured or anything, but like you know that you're doing what God wants you to do.

4)Becoming a Disciple
When you're baptised, it doesn't mean that you are confirm CONFIRM becoming Jesus' disciple, that you've finish the race already, baptism is just a "door" into something greater, you still need to continue to learn about the bible, do your quiet time, pay your tithes etc.

Baptism is both causative and declarative, meaning that baptism is both an act to show your family and friends that you're truly a believer, a public declaration of what has already happened and it is also and act by which something spiritually happens to you.

When you get baptised two things happen, you go INTO the water the you come OUT OF the water, and this is important as it shows something....

When you go INTO the water, it represents you DYING with Jesus, that your old self, your sins and everything has died, and it'll like "stay in the water" to make it simpler...

Then when you get OUT OF the water, it shows that you've RESURRECTED with Jesus, that now you have a new life and when this happens there's a new grace that comes upon you......a special grace...you'll feel it when you get baptised...

You have to have an open heart when you get baptised, don't go like "oh it's just going into the water and then out of the water"

NO, NO, NO, it's more than that, SO MUCH MORE....

When you go into the water, prepare yourself when you come out place in your heart the decision to receive something from God "I can't wait to live a new life for Jesus, can't wait to see what God is going to give to me" have that attitude when you're getting Baptised....

Of course remember this yeah, that even if you don't get baptised, it doesn't mean that you'll go to hell, no, no, no, cause God understands, like imagine right, a VERY sick person right just got saved and cannot get baptised right, cause cannot leave the hospital, then he passed away right.....you think he'll go to hell kah, NO NO NO, just because you're not baptised does NOT mean you'll go to hell....

Getting baptised is very important, but BELIEVING in Jesus Christ, is MORE IMPORTANT!!!

Romans 10:9
If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

So that's about it, it's actually very summarised, but it covers a lot of the points :)

Really hope that this helps you, and always remember GOD LOVES YOU!!!

GOD BLESS YA ®

really can't wait to hear how everything went!!!
