"My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love, Amazing grace"

Today's conversation with Valerie really moisturises my dry spiritual life. When we worshipped to the song, 'God of my forever', His thick presence wrapped around us. It felt as though He has given me a renewed faith, love and strength for me to carry on running this race although on the way i might pick up some pebbles or flowers.
Val's really amazing! Her words filled my heart when she prayed for me. Her understanding, great amount of patience and purpose-driven personality never fails to touch my heart.
Yes! A whole new level! Our Dream Team is gonna grow to 10 by end January!
I received a card from Dominic and Lynette from Val today! Their words had placed a smile on my face!
Lord i thank you for such wonderful and loving Pastors, amazing and caring leaders like Sister Mae Ann, Dominic, Lynette, Jie Ru, Val and Ford, and not forgetting the most awesome God's family i have- D5! I love you guys!!

Last saturday in Heart of God Church, there was this amazing atmosphere! It was Christmas Big Day! Many new friends came and Sharyl sat beside me!! ((:
Pastor Lia led worship and it was awesome!! I always loved Praise and Worship with Pastor Lia. The anointing of God is always so strong that it touched the hearts of many. And because of the over-whelming presence, many lives were saved.
Hosanna Hosanna!
And i particular loved this song,
Hosanna
by Hillsong United
I see the king of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes
The whole earth shakes
Yeeeah
I see his love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing
The people sing
[Chorus]
Hosanna
Hosanna
Hosanna in the highest x2
I see a generation
Rising up to take their place
With selfless faith
With selfless faith
I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees
We're on our knees
[Chorus]
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity
[Chorus] x2
Hosanna in the highest

2 weeks ago when i was serving in Children's Church, His thick presence was felt once again. This time, every kid was drawing closer to Him. I was just standing there, stop in my tracks, worshipping God and i looked back. There, in that MPR, many of the kids was tearing, with hands lifted high, singing with a sychronised joy but yet whole-heartedly. Isn't it so beautiful?
People often question me, "Kids are kids.. What can they do? They're so little.."
However, a couple of weeks ago, Pastor How shared with us a series of powerful sermons, involving insects. God chose to use insects which are small and insignificant creatures to teach us. This, i know CCH is gonna impact many lives!
When i was visiting Val's blog, i saw this verse.
1 Timothy 4:12
"Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity."
I love being a youth in hoGc!

Now it's 0054 and i'm at Vanessa's house and CCH just ended the BBQ!
When i woke up today, thinking of travelling all the way to Ang Mo Kio to meet Sherlyn to buy the logistics really put me off cause my Dad aren't sending me there. When i was in the shower, blasting "I simply live for You", I heard a soft voice spoke to me. "Many dreamt of your Ministry and people would give up anything to be young again."
Immediately, i remembered and everything came back to me like an old movie. "That's right! I'm gonna have soooo much fun with all the kids today."
Of course, we had sooo much fun together today! I really learnt a lot from Yeesiong and Sister Mae Ann today! I also got to know many more kids like Winn, Charmaine Ang, Qing Yan, Wayne, Benny, Justin, Ulrica, Mavis, Rachel, Jia Yan and Geormaine, (:
Not forgetting the teachers too! Xiao Yu, Yeesiong, Elizabeth, Jack, Elaine, Brother Fabian, Sister Mae Ann, Gong Hua, Sin fei, Yvonnne, Wei Le, Brother Chee Yong, Zi Ling, Sherlyn and not to forget this person, who helped us during CCH's camp and whose name begins with an 'A'- Alvin. 'A' for annoying! Got it?!
Brother Fabian, Yeesiong and Alvin was super crappy and funny today larh! While the teachers was circling around the fire, chatting and worshipping Jesus a little, they started making some really "cold" jokes. Brrrr... Haha!
After most of the kids went home, all the teachers played the scissors, paper, stones game on the bridge! Soooooo fun! Elaine kept screaming and i nearly got bumped off by Yeesiong and everyone's jumping! Yeah!!
Haha.. Oh! And i felt i was like a nurse today! Cause some kids are really careless and they fell.. I washed and dress their wound. But this is sooo cool! First-hand experience with these kids are so amazing! Even kids at the park who happened to see us playing, joined in too! God is really working in His way. I believe CCH will definitely break through a 100 by January 2008! Hallelujah!
I just love each and single one of the kids in CCH! They're always so ready to learn, ready to help.. Always having the servant attitude geared up to serve the teachers! How amazing and awesome is that?! I love God for putting CCH into part of his plan for me!
anyway, after debrief, it was sooo late that the last train leaving for the East line departed already. I called Melv but he was busy. Thank God for Brother Martin! He drove Vanny, Wei Le and i all the way to the East before returing back to the west. Bless them!

Yeah!!! Today was simply amazing!! Pastor How's sermon was so powerful and impacting today! His words are still ringing in my head till now!
Not only so, many new friends came, some got touched by God's love and others saved!
God is a good God and an amazing One!
It's really comforting to see youths these days serving God in Ministry, evangelism and many other ways. Other youths these days after their major exams might be hanging around at the malls, arcades, clubbing maybe, picking up bad habits and wasting their lives. But thank God for this new generation of young people who chose to serve God as a servant! Amen!
For the past 2 weeks, Pastor How shared about being like an ant, to learn to prepare.
Like a rock-badger, to learn to position.
Like a locusts, to learn to propel.
And finally, to be like a spider, to learn to produce.
Although these insects were so small in size and seemingly insignificant and ordinary, but God chose to use these small insects in the bible to teach us.
Thus, i know although i'm small, God is gonna use me in another way! To change my family from inside out! (:
-----------------------------------------------
Yeah! I simply can't wait for the CCH event tomorrow! I just wanna spend all my time in CCH.. The kids are so powerful and strong!
I know we're gonna have lots and lots of fun together tomorrow with all the other teachers! Hallelujah!
