| Yesterday, Feb 15th, I met up with my church Senior pastor. Had a brief chat with him. SO, it's official ... I will start work in Grace Klang, wef March 1st 2006. I will be assisting our Youth Pastor. Ps John Beh, in the area of youth and the young adults. I have been seeking the Lord about the direction for me.. it has been a rather difficult wait, as sometimes i was not sure and sometimes I was all up for it..
But many times, I felt that "what if.. I can't do it.. can't deliver what I am suppose to do.. " Many times I felt unworthy. But at last, it's setlled.. I AM BACK WITH THE YOUTH !! I am so happy about this.
Will meet up with my youth pastor next week, to sort out my job description. PLease do keep me in your prayers, for His strength and wisdom in all I do.. for His kingdom purposes.
God indeed is good.

| Time sure flies, and it's already on the way to mid feb... Sometimes you wonder what have you done or achieve.
Since I 've been back, been taking it nice and slow. When I got back,
the weekend next, was my friend's wedding. It's been awhile since I
last attended any friend's wedding. So, it's nice to be able to go one
of your friends...you do wonder if the rest of us will stay single..
but then again, we totally enjoy our singlehood and having such freedom
to do what we like and move as we like.
Then mid Dec, we have our Grace Youth Camp ... at Sommerset Hotel,
Endau Rompin. The bus journey's took nearly 4-5 hours. One bus got
lost, and the youth in that bus, survived a 6 hour long journey..
We had a great camp. The praise and worship was fantastic..preaching
and workshops were interesting..on the last day, God just showed up.
All the worship leaders combined (fr, Klg, PJ and USJ) and lead the hou
long P&W, God just showwed up, many started crying, laughing.. His
awesome Presence was just so marvellous. We all soak in the His
Presence and just allowed God to touch our hearts, mind and spirit.
many of the youth, either experience God after such a long time, or for
some, their first encounter with God. Ps. John did not preached,
but he just asked all of us leaders to go around and minister to the
youth.
During the camp, Ps. John put me on the spot and asked me to take the
baptism class. Initially there were about 6 who were getting
baptised, so I challenged the youth to consider getting baptised, and
in the end, 14 got baptised. Ps. John asked me to be part of the
baptism service as well, which did freak me out, and I told him, I have
not done this before. He just wanted us to pray for each candidate
individually.. It was a good experience.
Just after Christmas, I went to S'pore/Jb/S'pore ... when I got back, I
was told tha I am included in the Grace Staff retreat at Genting Awana
(Jan 15-18), with Prophet Victor Kusi. It was a great time of
just spending time with my ex-colleagues, and sitting in God's
presence. I took it as my opportunity to serve my ex-colleagues during
the retreat. I was assisting the PA, OHP and stage.
The Prophet from Ghana, is so precise in his prophecy..when he calls
you out, he gets your name, he will tell you your personal details that
only you would know..
it's quite scary..but he was also affirming a lot of the staff in the
ministries that they are already involved..he doesn't know anyone of
them... He paid a high price, before God gave him "ministries" .. Do
you know he fasted and prayed and sought the Lord for 365 days !!
That's right.. one year, without fail..
It was really exciting to hear what the Prophet proclaim over our
church, esp. over Klang church, being the mother church. I cried with
tears of joy, that at last, we are seeing our breakthroughs for our
Klang church, and we are going to explode.
The staff have been encouraged by many words of knowledge spoken oevr
their lives, and God affirming their giftings very very specifically.
God is truly awesome !! He never fails to surprise you and he never works the same way twice..it's always a fresh move.
After this retreat, when we got back, we had a 50-hour of Praise,
Prayer, Prophecy and Preaching, nonstop. It started on Jan20-22. I went
on a fast, drinking only water, for 22 hours flat out, as I was helping
out with the chorus board. It was a great time of just soaking in
His presence, We had constantly, a 4 hour block of different groups
taking over. (these were like English dept or PJ, Klg, USJ; Tamil dept
of Klg, Hokkien Dept of Klg, Chinese dept of Klang, Bahasa dept of
Klang.) It started on Fri 8pm.. and I finished at Sat 6pm.. had to go
home and rest, as I have a another full shift of duty, from Sun 1pm -
10 pm.. the last meeting didn't end till nearly midnight.
It was during this final night, we were challenged to give a RM80 seed
offering by faith. I gave ..drawing out all I had..had to borrow $4
some more from a friend.. but as I did it, and I walked back to my
seat, someone passed me an envelope, which I only opened much later at
home. God answered my prayer for finance to be able to take my driving
lessons and tests.. It was so mind blowing. On top of
that..one of my close friend..got a word that she will be married..we
were all so happy for her.. and we are all waiting for it to come
through..
God is so so awesome !!

| It's
already nearly end of Jan !! Time do flies.. Wishing all my chinese
friend.. Happy Chinese New Year! May it be a good and prosperous year
for all..prosperous in spirit, soul and body..
I
went away to Singapore and JB from Dec 27th - Jan 7th. had a good time
of breakaway.. Good time of catching up with old friends, and new
friends.
Met
with my ex- Flinders Uni friends..Karen (whom I stayed with) and Ming.
Chin Fui came with us to S'pore as well. Like good old times...
Met
up with my ex-life group leader from City Harvest.. Attended City
Harvest on 6th.. and I was so blessed to hear Joyce Meyer preached
again (had a great time with her sessions during Hillsong Conference
2005).
Met
up with Norman and Bruce ..and introduced my new fren Daniella to them.
Daniella is a new student in Flinders Uni this year. She will arrived
in Adel. on feb 16th.. Please help me look after her, for my friends in
Adelaide. She loves the Lord passionately and looks forward to be
involved in Paradise. Tsu Ee..you can get her rope in to help out with
Flinders Uni outreach for Universe.. she would be a great contact point.
Met
with Joyce Tan, Ling (who is studying her Master's in Flinders Uni..her
first year in Adelaide..) so ..another new friend for you guys to help
me look out for.. she is using my old Vodaphone no..
I
went up to JB on 30th Dec with Wendy Ho (after her work, in S'pore).
The next day, join her youth group meeting in the arvo, and then the
English service at night. Sun, after church, followed her to Kukop
Fishing Village, with her Teens leaders outing.. had a good time of
just relaxing and having fun, games and chatting.. some even learnt how
to play Mahjung for the first time.. :) I didn't bother..with all
chinese words on the blocks.. you can forget about trying.. haha..
Wendy is doing well at her job.. busy ..as normal auditors would be..
Just
a quick testimony. I have been praying to God to provide me the money
to go for my driving lessons, as the New Year 2006 started. On 22nd
jan, I received a love gift which covers my driving lessons.. !! I am
so thrilled. God is so good. If we would always dare to pray and
believe that nothing is impossible with God, He always answers prayer.
I
have to go for L's first..but too bad.. after getting my 'L', only
after a month, I can only then start my lessons.. oh well.. at least I
am getting there now. !! Praise God..
I
am in the midst of deciding to go back to church work.. it seems very
probable now.. maybe by march.. have a great year..my dear friends...
Life with God is always exciting and He is truly the Way, The Truth and
the Life for us all..
Love
Him passionately and don;t miss your personal time with Him.. He so
desires to want to talk with you and have a close intimate relationship
with him..
