I hope this inspires you
Saturday, August 09, 200802:24
I just reach home about one hour ago. As usual Friday vocal lesson! Alicia and I waited for the next class to end and went prata but everyone had something on so only left with Alicia, Ashton, Yixuan, Winson, Daniel and me. Surprisingly I ate porridge instead of prata and I couldn't finish that bowl! wahahha! Winson and Daniel went off early to boat quay i think. hahaha. 老人就是这样， 爱喝酒。 哈哈哈！ Oh ya, Winson managed to catch our lame jokes. wahahaha. We remained there and talked for like hours! hahah! 老师 was sharing about his plans, dreams, goals and stuffs with us which I think it was quite inspiring. His direction was clear and he has strong values. and I hope he will be very rooted in it and continue to inspire more people. After today, I really have greater understanding about him. I like the way he plan and I like his courage of pursuing his dreams. Being realistic but not giving up despite the huge risk. This is inspiring. This is passion. I also heard from Sherlyn just now. She also shared about the draw and temptations in this music industry. How she actually came about at this position. And how to balance in our walk with God with the worldly things. How to pursue this interest as career with the right concept. Her path was not easy and she did make wrong decisions at some point of her life. No doubt that, she set her priorities right. She didn't start off just like this knowing her directions and bang... at where she is now. She is not from any wealthy family. She worked hard for her fees and balancing between work and studies. She started off like us, wanting to be a singer, been through thicks and thins until she was at the stage of discussing her contract when she became a believer and God started to reveal her true purpose in life. She realised all that she wanted was fame and that was not what she really wanted. I really admire her courage because after standing strong, working hard for all these years for this dream, she declined the contract. After she turned down the contract, she remained as a part-time teacher in Ocean Butterflies' for some time before she become a full-time. At every point of her life, she never fail to continue learning in her profession. She stood strong but not pinning all her hopes in the opportunities that was given to her. God has indeed done miracles in her life. Turned the wrongs into rights! She was like you and I, she was not the perfect perfectionist girl you see. She was even somehow tone-deaf. But she believed in herself and did not focus on the problem. I just want to quote from her blog as I find it inspiring "Yes, I was tone-deaf, but I refused to think that I cannot overcome. Yes, I failed along the way for competitions, auditions, performances, even told in my face that I was a bad singer and that I will never make it, but still I picked myself up, cleaned off the dirt, the thoughts of quitting and tears of disappointments, and walked on. I was never the best among people, neither am I now, there are so many people who are so good in what they do, but that all is not the point, its not about the others." She worked hard 11 years to be where she is. No matter what you do in your life, its your life. Keep going even if you meet nasty people. You don't have to be the best in your circle. You are the best you are. Faith is the key. What kind of values do you possess? Are those values gonna see you through or are you gonna stand strong and live in it? I'm so thankful for the biblical principles I've learnt from church since young that I lived in it unknowingly. Even as a rebellious kid, I believed in myself. I was never classified as an emo kid. haha. My values that was cultured is so essential. Even if people have doubts in it, I will not have any uncertainty. Even if people have doubts in me, in my charater, in my perspective, I am certain for I serve a great God. Well and I know truly its not by chance that people share all these. I knew and I sensed God is moving. This is the point. This is where my uncertainty gonna end. Its time. Its time to stand up and finish the race. Oh Lord, thank you for Your faithfulness even as I'm not. Thank You for the light. Thank You for the direction. Thank You for the cross. Thank You for Your love. Thank You for this experience. I will not give up. I will not give up on how this passion first came. I will not give up on the purpose of this passion. I knew how true it was and I know it is. I know You will be with me along this hard journey. I know Your grace. I know Your protection. Amen!

let's do some math Part II
Friday, May 16, 200802:27
let's do some math Part I: http://ineffabilis.blogspot.com/2008/01/lets-do-some-math.html I was talking to Veracia during our long bus journey home. So we're actually talking about the importance and urgency in winning souls. I suddenly recalled of the entry she posted some time ago. She said " According to Sy Rogers, by the rate of people being saved in the world, they calculated that around year 2030 the whole world will be saved. Which means: 2030 - 2008 = 22 years 22 years - (22 x ⅓) - (22 x ¼) = 9.67 years left The total population in Singapore is 4,588,600. The percentage of Christians (excluding catholics - 4.8%) here is 9.8% No. of Christians in Singapore = 4,588,600 people X 9.8% = 449,683 Christians No. of non-christians = 4,588,600 - 449,683 = 4,198,917 non-christians No. of salvation = 4,198,917 ÷ 449,683 = 9.34 Average no. of salvation = 10 (take 9.34 as 10) ÷ 10 (take 9.67 years as 10) = 1 soul/year Yes, I mean 1 salvation each year. It can be done right? You have probably led a few or a lot or not a single soul to Christ. It time to start to pray for open doors among your friends. There is not much time for you to waste, to wait, to sleep. If you have led a few to Christ, I don't mean that you should stop reaching out. You should continue to pray and obey God's word. Continue to make a difference among your friends. You never know when the Holy Spirit will set you up. If you have led a lot to Christ, well done! And that doesn't mean you should stop. This means you should continue to evangelize and win more souls since God is really using you to impact people. After relating to so many people, problems, needs and test, I believe you have great testimonies to share and encourage people being saved or unsaved. You are definitely a person of influence right? If you have not led a single one to Christ, WAKE UP! Its TIME to work now! We are believers of Christ. Probably some would say every religion is the same. They teaches us to love people as ourselves. But notice one thing, Christianity is not a religion because our God is alive. Christianity is a relationship with God. It is different from other religion. So why? Yes, most religions teaches us to love people as ourselves. But hey, we are not perfect people. Can we love with or strength? Some people don't even know how to love themselves. Oh well, so why Christianity is different since we all can't love people as ourselves? The difference is we have the Holy Spirit to help us to love. And a normal relationship with people needs commitment so what's more about the relationship with God. This explains why we go to church every week. Our prayer with God is a Dialogue. Its not a Monologue. We talk to God. We don't just pray for our needs. In fact, He knows them all. He is our God, our Father, Our Saviour, He is alpha and omega. He loves us and He is always waiting for us to talk to Him. Ain't my God great? Ain't salvation precious? It depends on you whether you wish to hear "faithful servant" or "well done" when you meet Jesus in heaven. It depends on you whether you want to meet one or a few fruits or a huge congregation in heaven saying "this person brought me to church". It depends on you whether you want Jesus to call you a servant or a child. Oh God, I love you. Different people has different calling but I will follow You. You have the greatest plan for me. I don't care what is my calling, what is my desire. Not my will, but Yours be done. Sometimes, when we know our calling, we tend to be a bit too persistent in our calling. Thinking that, it is not my calling, I can't do that? Oh Lord, I will not carry such attitude. I love you and I will do what You want me to do. Use me, give it to me. Let me do the things that people do not want to do. You are the best reward. I have not forgotten the promises I make and I will not forget. I will not give up for I know You will provide the strength, peace, love, wisdom and everything I need! Amen! Labels: blessed, motivation, principality, revelation, Spiritual |

Alone
Thursday, May 01, 200820:46
I really don't know how long can I last. Exams have really been stressful plus many many other things. God, I do not want to lead a simple life but I really don't know what else I can do. After some time, i really can't find my heart anymore. Bitterness just begin to develop within me. Bitter about exams, about people, about friends, about myself, about cg, about God, about school, about studies, about everything.
I can't, I can't do well in anything. I can only face it myself. And I just hope my insomnia stop tonight. |

Wednesday, April 23, 200818:41
Hi guys, I'm back. Really sorry for not updating due to the time table in the previous post. Ya I know its been more than a week. Well, have been studying everyday as my exams are starting next week. Went for Dr Kim's on sunday. It was really powerful. It was really an impartation. She preached a very simple message on Holy Spirit but right after her message, I felt the pressence so strong in the midst of us. The pressence was so tangible and tears kept flowing then God began to say "I will give you strength and power in all things". Wah, Thank you Jesus!! He indeed know my hearts desire. That night when I was doing my quiet time, I received a revelation 1 Peter 5 : 6 - 11 Yesterday, I went for choir practice and belle shared a word which is exactly my revelation. As you humble ourselves and put God first, when He sees you, He'll be so pleased and He'll say "WOW". When you lift up your burdens and prayers, He'll answer them. You got to constantly know the voice of the Lord. No matter what tribulations you experience, you must know that Jesus Christ had experienced it, yet without sin and you are rooted deep in the water. You got to be hungry and do not feel satisfied easily in knowing God. As you are closer to Him, He will then reveal things to you. Alot of times we believe in every other people but not ourselves. We must not let the roaring lion come and cause us to doubt ourselves. Labels: blessed, church, revelation, Spiritual |

You shouldn't sleep too much hence, you'd die earlier
Saturday, April 05, 200823:34
Wow, truely blessed by Pst Tan's message - Thinking with Excellence
One of the things he said that left a deep impression was about Time management. Time = the occurance of events. Time Management = Events Management. Survey from some medical doctors from America said that the average time one person should sleep is 6.5 hours per day and there's no reason you should sleep more. Survey showed that there's an increase of death rate of people who sleep more than 8 hours a day or less than 4 hours a day and decreased in death rate of people who sleep 6 - 7 hours per day.
