2007 Christmas Celebrations

For Christmas, our church organized the second installment of the Rock of Ages Concert, which is a reprise of the inaugural concert in Easter. The pre-concert a bit of a mayhem for me because I was working on the opening video till the very last minute because my computer was giving me so much problems. It 'hanged' a few times and trust me, I so wanted to strangle the computer (although it wasn't exactly its fault that the raw video files were so big). When it was done, it was time to convert the file into MPEG format, I had the worse thoughts because it was a big file and it may take a long long long long time for it to convert or it would probably KO on me again. I said to God that if He wants this video to be up, I believe it shall be up and if He doesn't want it, I am okay if it is not used at all. I left the PC to convert the video while I went out to do something. When checked on it, it was done and ready to be used! I was surprised and amazed (me of little faith). Praise the Lord! The performances of the night were all good. Although no one came out at the invitation to receive Christ, I believe seeds were sown and planted that night and by God's grace, may these seeds land on fertile ground and produce fruit in His time!

Some interesting pictures from the night:

Barb's Bridal Shower (15 December 2007 )

Barb's getting married soon! =) A group of us cool ladies got together for a bridal shower in honour of her. We had food, glorious food and then after, Aunty Nee Jin gave a short sharing on marriage. Each of us said a blessing over Barb and prayed for her before we adjourned. On the overall, I personally enjoyed myself as it was great to be able to get together and fellowship and rejoice over Barb as she prepares to stp into another phase of her life. Many blessings of joy, peace and happiness from our beloved Heavenly Father to you, Barb! =)

Everlasting God

I've been hooked to this song for the past few days. Simple message, lovely melody. I heard this on KLTY for the first time this week and it was a version performed by Lincoln Brewster. Just found out that it was written by Brenton Brown and is one of the tracks on Chris Tomlin's album. I think it is fantastic. =)

Everlasting God

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord

Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our Strong Deliverer

You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won't grow weary

You're the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles

God the Provider

Pondering on what has God showed me this week, I realised that He has been showing me that He knows our thoughts and anxieties and that He is the faithful, prayer-answering God. At our ladies Bible study last Saturday, Heidi shared on how God was faithful in answering prayers eventhough it may be a seemingly simple and small need. And thank God she shared her testimony because I remembered what she shared when my faith was put to test on Sunday. We had arranged for a hiking trip up to No. 3 and on Sunday morning, I wasn't even sure if we could make it. I initially cancelled the hike but "resurrected" the plan after Kevin and Sharon said that they'd join us and that Kevin can drive the van. However, I got 2 missed calls from Sharon at around 3 something and when i returned her call, she mentioned that the van key was not available for some reason. So at that point, i panicked a bit cos there was no transport. I called James to see if he can drive or if he would allow me to drive his car and he said no. So eventually, we all went by faith, trusting that it will turn out well. On the way to church, I prayed a very simple prayer committing the hike to God. I checked my handphone and got an SMS from James, asking me to drive his car! Praise the Lord, we have transport. When I arrived at church, I found out that Clement and his cousin, Gary can go on Gary's bike. To my biggest surprise and delight, Brian and Isaac decided to join us for the hike and is willing to drive! Hallelujah! From having a lack, God provided to overflow because by 415pm, we had more cars than we needed. Isn't He amazing? =)

Believing God

A group of us girls and ladies from the church had gone through a Bible study recently on Believing God, based on a book by Beth Moore. Although I have yet to finish all the homework that I am suppose to do throughout the weeks of study, I have been blessed by God's Word through Beth Moore's teaching and the sharing session that we had in the group. Here are some pictures that i took of our most recent bible study session.

I'm Back!!

There is this new blogging craze among the Youths so I thought I'd jump onto the bandwagon along with them. hahaha... I hope I can keep up!
