A GAME OF SABOTEUR

i dont know whats more depressing, the fact that no one is bugging me to blog, as opposed to having people bug me to blog a few months ago. this is such a sorry state for my blog, but no fears people, for the enthusiastic minority, i shall pen my thoughts down!!! :)

the last post i said i better grow this holiday

i did

dont worry, i am still the short 163 fart i was last month

maybe i shrunk in height :P

but there are many ways an individual can grow

brace yrself for a lame analogy :

Life Is A Game Of Saboteur

There we are, at the start of our lives, building paths towards our desires routes and ardent dreams, not knowing whether we'd reach it, and whether the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow is real, or is made up of cheap china manufactured milk chocolate, uncannily named sanlu(hmm)

On your journey, the devil will be there, watching yr movements, destroying advancements youve already made in yr life, and placing obstacles in your life, that you have to get over before you start back on yr journey on your glorious ambition. To some, only prayer and petition will make your path straight, and bless you if you do that, but the question is not placed on the journey, but at the end of yr tunneling. when u reach the end of yr journey, and you flip over that card, have you really reached that slab of gold? has yr toiling been worth?

i never really had a fixed ambition, to be honest, my first ambition was to be a construction worker (dont pray praay eh) and subsequently, police man,. teacher etc etc. but i never really found what i really really wanted to be. perhaps its a calling, and i hope it is, but i always felt that god wants me to do something a bit different with my life

i have been praying, and if responses from god are hard to believe (their not hard to belief, but sometimes i m caught between me being mistaken, and whether god is really speaking to me ), lets take a few more obvious hints from my dad up there.

my mom and i have been having some of those "discussions" . nononono, dont get me wrong, i already know about the birds and the bees, but rather on my ambitions in the future. she hopes i can be a lawyer, and sorry, though facebook agrees, i cant do it, but what has always impacted me, is after every discussion, my mom would always said that if god gave me a calling to minister to him, she wouldnt mind at all, and i was intrigued by this.

He told me that went i was young-er , i went into my parents room once, and told them that god told me to be a pastor, and i think i can remember it abit. haha

its really quite amazing actually, and im praying about it, and im rather positive god wants me to minister to the church full time, and why not? church is really what makes my life complete.

eh hernshung, this post is my testimony btw, so i no need to email you right?

lets continue ...

WHAT MADE ENCOUNTER THE MOST IMPACTFUL CAMP IN 2009?

it wasnt the friends

it wasnt the games

IT was the ENCOUNTER

you may think this is a trick question, but honestly, would you tell someone that the games in a camp wasnt imporatant, or that ben and jerry's ice cream vouchers dont make up whats important in a camp (eh, but im still keeping my share. heheh)

enCOUNTer 09

did we make this opportunity COUNT?

i can safely say YES

im sure not one person who went for encounter did not have something to share.

during the camp, i did pray for the verdict of me ministering fulltime, and the theme verse summarises it all for me

LUKE9:23

Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

Ifelt god around me in encounter 09, i hope those who went did too. i sat with him on the beach, i sang praises to him, i lay down beside him in the santuary, and for all those christians out there, i hope you really get to follow god everyday in yr life like what i am trying to do, it may not be easy, but no one said it was.

encounter left me with something fresh and simple, and it really mas a milestone in my journey with the lord. i will be looking forward to the next retreat




taken from the song all day-

Anyone around can see just how good you've been to me
For all my friends that don't know you
I pray that you would save them too
