Dun really know what to do when I was suddenly feeling very lost and afraid and alone when I came home from church yesterday... It was very weird.. even until now I was still feeling like that... something inside me that's so uncomfortable... what's happening?? I'm not very sure... maybe i'm juz feeling "stupid" Yeah... I did spent time with God everyday.. but perhaps really not enough of Him, not enough experience of Him in my walk... That's it.... spending time in His words is not enough.. Tried to look for verses in the bible and all I turned to was.."The Lord is with me". But I need more... God to be more real to me. Well... dun really know how to say it...
But yet... today at work listened to this song called "You carried me"... dun really rem the lyrics but it goes a bit like this ".......i see the foot prints in the sand and i realised that you were there beside me every single day. You carry me through all of my trials, You carry me when i was troubled and alone...... You carry me when I needed someone there..." It was the last song of "heart of worship vol 3 disc 1" Yar.... I felt a tug in my heart... Yar.. God is carrying me throughout.. why should I be afraid? He is beside me every single day.... but yet... I know I need more of Him... I also need ppl alongside with me...
Okie... better spend more time with God now... not too much on here...

Weee.... finally get to catch up with my frens today... Yar... went back to office for orientation day. Funny right?? Enter into the co after 1 month plus then they say have orientation for us. I was late and it was so embarassing!! I didn't know today is orientation cos I was not in the office for the last few days of last week, so i can't check the company email. dun have the remote access given to perm staffs, that's why i can't check it at home.
Only after I stepped out of habor front mrt then my fren msg me whether I'm going for the orientation. Had to take a cab down to Raffles Place. Thank God that it's from habor front and not sembawang or woodlands!!!! Otherwise I'll be really late... Thank God that she msg me... Was scolded by the HR person in charge cos I was late and didn't know abt this thingy today. She said it was not an excuse for me to say that I didn't check my email last week, and that if I'm on the job, I should go back to office once a week juz to check email.. can you believe it?? All the way back to office juz to check email?? I dun even noe have to.
But nevermind abt that, we really had a lot to talk abt and whee... first time we can leave the office together! I felt it was quite unecessary to hold this orientation at this time. They went through all that we had already noe and those stuffs that we had to find out all by ourselves during this past one month and 2 weeks. It would really really help if it was held during the 1st week we got in.
Heeez.... I really want to thank God for being so good to me throughout these few weeks of attachment. Thank you God for today!!!

Wah... heez...attended another retreat in church again last weekend. Heez... It's quite refreshing and fun cos I get to spend time with my brothers and sisters again!!! I enjoyed it even though it was tiring. Cool... we got to use the new place!! haha.. like what Dotz say... it's so homely that I don't mind sleeping there again.. hehee. Throughout these few dayz, emphasis was on unity between us sojourners. It's not about me and God like in other camps, its about God, me and my brothers and sisters in Christ!!! I really thank God that I have a big family!!! Wah... Yupz.. my prayer for sojourners is that everyone can really come together, not one is left out, that we are not individuals anymore. We come together as a body of Christ where our focus is all on the Lord, not us.
Let us be one voice that glorifies Your name
Let us be one voice declaring that You reign
Let us be one voice in love and harmony
And we pray, O God, grant us unity.
It also set me thinking that I shouldn't prejudice against some ppl just because of our character difference. Yaa... really have to work hard on that. yep... Accepting one another in love. It's hard though... but I will try my best to change my perceptions.. yupz.

Waaa.... for the past few days, were juz typing in updates into my collegues' working papers.. heez.. they are so nice.. cos they asked me to do it slowly. I can go home a bit earlier too!! Cos they are afraid I will be too bored in the client's place.. haha... this time at habour front. But really.... my head juz hit flat in front of my laptop cos it's really sian... heeez.. thank God that i rem to bring cds along.. haha juz to worship Him in my heart. Was juz reminded of the love that Christ has for us cos He loves God. There's no greate love than this love.
I'm forgiven, because You were forsaken
I'm accepted, You were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again
Amazing love, how can it be
That You my king would die for me?
Amazing love, I know it's true
And it's my joy to honor You
In all I do, I honor You.

I believe in You, Father
I believe in Your love
I believe in You, Jesus
Seated in heaven above
I believe in You, Holy Spirit
In Your Power and might
I believe in You, Jesus
You are my life
I believe you do miracles
You heal the sick and raise the dead
Open blinded eyes to see
You do it over and over again
I believe You do miracles
The lame shall walk anf lead and run
Broken hearts amended
You do it over and over again
All I have to do is to learn to trust in God and believe in Him, believe in Jesus. Even my faith, as small as a mustard seed, can even move mountains!!! Matthew 18:6.
My faith in God is a gift of God. Faith will cause me to stand strong and not fall when there are troubles or distractions.
Yepz....yest went for ARISE rehearsal and heard that the full dress rehearsal will be on 30th and 31st dec which is thurs and fri. I can only go for thurs eve but not on fri cos the rehearsal is in the day. Can't take leave cos my max leave period is already used up for the youth camp. Pls pray that I can have half day on 31 dec and not dragged to do stocktaking!!! If I do, then I won't even be able to attend watch night service too!!! heez..

My God is big
So strong so mighty
My God's plan for me
Goes beyong my wildest dreams
My God is Good
He's so good to me
He's my God and
He is my refuge
He's the rock on which I stand
He's my fortress
God He is my life
He holds the oceans in his hand
My God is Big
So Strong so mighty
My God is good
He's so good to me
There's nothing my God cannot do
Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and the hills in a balance? Isaiah 40:12
This is my God.

Heez... Cool!! It's alot more fun watching the photos and video clips together as a grp as we gathered in the little band room in church to watch... but I guess... most ppl were getting a bit bored cos there were simply too too many photos and videos!! That i can't save it into uncle Jem's 512 Mb thumbdrive!! Hahaha... Camerawoman!!! Took so many pics at the Sojourners' camp!!
You know.. before the camp I was reading this article abt the Holy Spirit, then this camp was about holiness... Hahhah.. then Ps Caleb's sermon today was sort of a combi altogether.. which he also emphasied on holiness. Wah.... ppl!! It's a continuation!! The message doesn't stop there in Sojourners' camp!! Passion for God.... we need to have passion for Him... and not to take Him for granted to the things that we are blessed with. No more acting religious guys!!! Our passion, adoration, devotion and gratitude towards Him need to be present in our lives!! Therefore, then can we work ourselves towards having a clean hands and pure heart.
There must be more than this,
O breath of God come breathe within,
There must be more than this,
Spirit of God we wait for You.
Fill us anew we pray,
Fill us anew we pray.
Consuming fire fan into flame,
A passion for Your Name,
Spirit of God fall in this place,
Lord have Your way,
Lord have Your way with us,
Come like a rushing wind,
Clothe us with power from on high,
Now set the captives free,
Leave us abandoned to Your praise.
Lord let Your glory fall,
Lord let Your glory fall.
Stir it up in our hearts Lord,
Stir it up in our hearts Lord,
Stir it up in our hearts Lord,
A passion for Your Name.

Went for Sojourners' camp 3 days... God is indeed gracious and good!! At first.. I came didn't know what to expect except I took leave from work just for this camp.. but then my expectation is that I juz want to dwell in His Presence and that this camp is from where I will change. God is good indeed to work in our midst.. ministering to us in every session. I praise God and thank God for that!!! I believe that God has touched most of us in a very special way... Throughout this camp.. is that.. I want more and more of Him.... I want to live my life in purpose for Him. What I didn't expect was that the Holy Spirit prompted me again and again to step out in boldness to surrender my whatever things to God.. the things that I am still holding on to that I refused to let it go, thinking it was okie to do this or that... but no... I realised that even this little bit of thing(to me) will grieve the Holy Spirit if I continue to do it. Therefore.. I surrender it to God. I'm surprised at the boldness that I had in stepping out!! Previously... I was always very hestitant to step out and come to God. I guess it is because I came to this camp with more expectancy and with my heart opened to God. I really really need God in my life, without Him, I cannot do anything.
Being one of the group leader perhaps also helped me to know the purpose of why I am going for this camp.. Cos... as you know... yea... Chris and J.K emailed to us the discussion qns b4 the camp for us to prepare.. in a way... it's also a preparation of my heart. :) to want to know Him more.
One thing I want to take from this camp is the promise that God had given me. On the last night, I stepped out, wanting an assurance from God... cos from there on... how I move forward is up to me to decide, it depends on me. But I was afraid.. what if I cannot breakaway from the things that I surrendered to Him? Yeah... Indeed God knows best what I need.. cos Amanda prayed for me that I will do it with God's strength. He will be there for me. Later on.. I did QT in the bedroom.. was wondering which part of the bible should I read, then that suddenly I juz turned to the page of
Isaiah 58:11 " The Lord will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail." Indeed, He will take my hand and lead me throughout my walk.. He is always there for me.. Thank You God!!

Haiz... today had to stay back in the office to do my timesheet. Cos there's something wrong with the program.. had to use a colleague's one to do it and she had to stay back also because of me... I didn't even have time to go for dance rehearsal today.... hmph....
Heez... today didn't really have anything to do at work cos we can't get the information we want from the client cos he took leave... boring day... but yet... hehhe... i printed out some teachings abt the Holy Spirit from the freshfire website and read it in the afternoon!! It's so cool reading it cos the person was having new experiences with the Holy Spirit in every situation!! Wow... the manifestation of the Holy Spirit is so powderful.... It was so great that even people come up to that person to ask him how to know more about Jesus without him speaking anything at all!! This is the power of the Holy Ghost.. and I understand that the Holy Spirit is the seven spirits of God... wah... these are all the works of the Holy Spirit!! Now I'm getting interested to know more... so cool... heheh
