Well i know, it's been more than a month since i came back here. Well in fact, i have been thinking about some things on mind and in heart. I got a lot to share but this verse kinda summed up my thoughts.
1-3 Do you see what this means—all these pioneers who blazed the way, all these veterans cheering us on? It means we’d better get on with it. Strip down, start running—and never quit! No extra spiritual fat, no parasitic sins. Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we’re in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: Cross, shame, whatever. And now he’s there, in the place of honor, right alongside God. When you find yourselves flagging in your faith, go over that story again, item by item, that long litany of hostility he plowed through.That will shoot adrenaline into your souls!
We saw the 6 accused standing on court in the entire month of August. So you might ask what/how does the above verse relate or link with the 6?
1.The 6 never quit when they began or started this church some 25 years ago.
2. They never lost sight of where they were going, therefore they, together with Him could put up with anything along the way which is the process and the journey to build this and the many churches around Asia.
3. And though we're not in the place of honor, yet we're right alongside with God.
To all who read this, ask yourself:
1. Where are you going in life? Have you lost sight of where you are going?
2. Are you giving up or losing sight? Do you have the character to put up with anything along the way?
3. Which is more important to you? The place of honor or right alongside with friends, family who have been with you?

Late Post: Tranche 4
I believe some of us have heard of the City Harvest Church trial happened some 4 years ago. Since that day, 6 have been accused of misuse of more than S$50m of church funds.
Well i wanna share what i or we believe.
1. We believe the One who has place them over as as leaders.
2. We believe the One who has been watching us even them to handle the monies given to them.
3. We believe the One has been with us, in us through the past 25 years.
But before you make any opinion or comments or jump to conclusion, may I suggest that you check and double confirm the evidence you have, are from the reliable source. What you think and/or feel and see may not match with what's going on.

Just the way you are
In this world we live in, we have two types of people. First group of people are people who are perfectly healthy, well to do financially, having a good job and family. And the second group of people are people who have physical/mental disability, may not have a high paying job, or have a proper functioning family.
Often when we choose our friends, or looking for a life partner, we like to choose friends who are like us. We believe that if i can be attached to this girl or boy, i will be happy. Why? Because we are on the same group of people. We have the same attributes. But what if someone from the other group wanna be friends with you? Will you be friends with him/her? If he/she ask you for coffee, or wanna to know you better, are you going?
It does not matter whether you are in which group, humans deserved to be loved and respected. So here's what i want you to do: Save your critical comments, scoldings, telling offs in front of others.
None of us in this Earth are perfect. All humans make mistakes. Before you pass your judgments, look and think at yourself. Sure, we all have done few mistakes but that's not the point. The thing is we have been given the second chance. So therefore, treasure your life by encouraging the people around you.

Post Birthday
I hate to say this but i'm 25 this year. I guess the Chinese idiom is right,'' 岁月不留人.'' Over the the past 25 years, I've seen people come and go. People may forget or aware that today is your birthday. There may be no one to celebrate your birthday, no cake or celebration. But be encouraged. I have a Friend who has been with me since the day I was in my mother's womb. Even if there isnt any present, cake or celebration, You are more than enough.
As much as i have my goals, wishes, desires, life is not just about me. I came to realize that one shouldn't be self-centered. And why is that so? You are not alone and you will never walk alone.
In every stages in life, there is a group of people who are always looking out or taking care of you.
So be aware, that life is more than eating the best food, wearing the ootd, complaining about the bus/MRT etc.. Learn to take things as they come your way. Somewhere along this journey, i assure you that things and situations are bound to happen. But no matter what happened, happen or may happen, don't be anxious.

Late Blog Post
I'm really sorry guys. The month of May is really packed and busy with few things. And sometimes there are too much things going on, words, i don't really know what or how to describe it.
In couple of week' time, it's my 25th birthday!! Honestly, i don't really know what i want. But if you must know, i guess i want to know my friends in dept or at least better more.
And how will i do it? I like to talk to friends on a one to one. I'm not referring or hoping for someone but i just wanna talk.

Where were you when i needed you the most?
I've been in this current cg for 5 years. Over the years, we have been thru much sufferings and hardships. I remembered one of your sibling was hospitalized. Some of us was there to visit and pray for healing and speedy recovery upon your sibling. Thankfully, she is on her way to recovery.
The following year was my turn. I remembered that i posted in a group chat that my sis is in hospital. And just when i thought people or at least one of you could make time and visit us. But sadly, none came.
Over the years, you called me your ''brother'', ''faithful'' etc.. I was there when you needed me to be. In prayer meetings, in cell group meetings and other big and important events, you always see me there. But
Where were you when i needed you the most?
And now i started serving another cell group as a guitarist. And guess what? You said you are disappointed with me. When you are upset with me, you can say ur piece of mind. But when i was in need, where were you?

Feel for you
I have been thinking about a few. And today, i would like i to share with you one of the things.
Remember Xiuhui? Well, i once posted here that i used to really liked her alot like 3 years ago? Well, though i really liked her before, i kept the my fondness for her deep in my heart after she started a relationship with Joseph aka Xianbi. Recently, we started whatsapping again. Here i really wanna thank God for the chance to have lunch with her again.
Something i just found out from her, or perhaps it's my lack of info, but it's true that i was the last to know that the relationship ended last year? Oh well, though i still see both at church, i didn't know. When she told me the relationship has ended, somehow i felt more for her than happy. Rightfully, i can be happy. Why? Because she is single again hence i can ask her out again. But no. Honestly, i don't feel happy. Whether she is single/attached/married, i hope i am still her friend. And as a friend, if she sad, i am sad. If she is happy, i am happy.
Though the feelings are still in my heart, i do hope to get to know her better. And though i am of age to find a partner, i just want to know her better.
Till the next time we meet again, be happy.
