Still

Hide me now; Under your wings

Cover me within Your mighty hand

When the oceans rise, the thunders roar

i will soar with you above the storm

Father you are King over the flood

I will be still know you are the God.

I rest my soul; in Christ alone

Know his power, in quietness and trust

x Chorus

Give thanks 感恩

爸爸&妈咪，相信神原来是一件很开心的事。很多时候，我们都不明白这种感觉，因为只有亲身体会到的时候，才会去相信那份感觉。我希望有一天，你和妈咪都能够体会到那种感觉，就好像在我四月二十三号晚上体会到的一种推动力。我希望有一天，我们能全家一起祈祷，让神再次感动我们，让祂带领我们，让我们的家更有凝聚力，更有爱，更有神的爱，更有安宁的心。


这几晚的我和妹妹，都在为家人祷告，希望一切都能顺心。有时，很多事情可能我们没办法解决，我们让祂帮我们安排吧~



希望你们会读到我这篇部落。
我今天很感恩，因为爸爸说他想要个信仰 :)
祷告回应了！


感谢您。
amen :)

John 15: 12-17

"My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what i command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that i learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but i chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit- fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. This is my command: Love each other."

Today's sermon is kinda interesting. Ps. Andrew shared about friends of Jesus. He's really a very kind and friendly man. He'll intro his name and shake hand with you, then ask for your name. The message that he's got for us today somehow spoke to me:

1. Make friends out of LOVE

2. Make friends intentionally

3. Make friends to motivates Evangelism

As i reflected upon his words, i can honestly say i only fulfill 1/3 which is, I make friends out of love. I believe it's so right that we ought to cultivate a friendship with a sincere love for others. If not, why do we need a friend?

He added, when people love one another, a friendship is born. Mutual understanding and love are so important. As a Christian, we need to intentionally make friends, to allow new friends to feel comfortable and welcome with our presence. All in all, I'm a friend of God, you're a friend of God, we are the friends of God :) I'm learning still. Continue to pray for blessings and guidance in this. At least at this moment, i truly appreciate my close friends who are the huge blessings that given by God :)

believer

I've been wanting to share this last week, but too many things happened in a week, too brain consuming, therefore, hardly have the inspiration and mood to pendown something here :)

Anyway, it's a message that i heard from church invited speaker the other day. This pastor is a chinese, i believe he also understands very much what a chinese will think, how's the mentality and all in this community.

He shared with us this message. It's said that people only choose christianity, choose to believe God when things happen. Disastrous thing to be exact. Previously, I also heard from others that, christians comes to you when you're at your weakest point of life. When you're super sick, you seek for god(s). When you're poor, you pray for wealth stuff like that.

I always wonder, why we, chinese can be that selfish? It's nth about religion here, but it's the culture that we've brought into. Why are we so selfish? When do we wanna give ourselves a change? My mum used to tell me we need to 还神 when we receive good thing. It's just like how a pastor will tell u to praise God in prayer for all the blessings that you've received. I could agree no more. We seriously need to learn how to praise Lord. He protects us when our lives are at stake. He plans for us to go through difficulties with strength. If we can go through all these, we should thank Him for all these. Not only to think about our own welfare, we gotta think of His words too. When we receive thing, we shld say thank you. That's very common and that will be common when it comes to spirituality too.

I'm grateful that i choose to be a believer at this period of time when i am ready. It's not a period whereby i NEED him, but it's a period i WANT to be with Him. I hope i can continue to uphold this spirit :)

everyone has a story to tell

I believe everyone of us will definately have our story to tell. Every day makes an episode. It can be a happy ending, it can be a unsatisfactory ending. Nevertheless, we shall never give up in life because i believe everyone of us will be able to create a beautiful ending. Pray to God for a new beginning when we fall; praise God when we lead an ideal and positive life.

At times, one's family background can really influence the way we act and react, the way we perceive thing, we receive and give things. However, i believe it's through understanding that we then receive acceptance on one another. Remember, understanding is much much more important than tolerating. :)

Just wanna share a song to all of you, it's indeed a very motivational song:

I've been working hard so long
Seems like pain has been my only friend
My fragile heart's been done so wrong
I wonder if i'd ever healed again

Oooh just like all the seasons
Never stay the same
All around me i can feel the change

Chorus:
I will break the chain to find me
Happiness will find me
Leave the past behind me, today my life begins
A whole new world is waiting, it's mine for the taking
I know i can make it, today my life begins

Yesterday has come and gone
And i've learnt how to leave it where it is
And i see that i was wrong
For ever doubting i could win

Oooh just like all the season
Never stayed the same
All around me i can feel the change

x Chorus

Life's too short to have regrets
So i'm learning now to leave it in the past, and try to forget
We only have one life to live
So you better make the best of it

x Chorus





No matter what, i will always love my family because they bring me to this world :)

Luke 6: 32-36 Love your Enemies

"If you love only the people who love you, why should you receive a blessing? Even sinners love those who love them! And if you do good only to those who do good to you, why should you receive a blessing? Even sinners do that! And if you lend only to those from whom you hope to get it back, why should you receive a blessing? Even sinners lend to sinners, to get back the same amount! No! Love your enemies and do good to them; lend and expect nothing back. You will then have a great reward, and you will be children of the Most High God. For he is good to the ungrateful and the wicked. Be merciful just as your Father is merciful."

Was reading this during one of the reading nights. Came across with the verses that caught my eyes so much. I was thinking to myself at that juncture. Why am i being so selective in life? As in, i will only love those who sincerely love me, be it friends or family members and i will give more to those who love me. After reading this, I think i'm very much a sinner. =X Thus, I will set this reminder, to be gracious to people, to be a merciful person. It'll be a struggle, I pray to God that He will walk this journey with me. To let me walk into people's life without a selective heart.

Yes, i was right in the beginning that counting a blessing is very important. I always count things that i've received, all the good things. BUT! What did i do? What have i done so far... that matters so much to my surrounding, or to just myself? Guess sometime, we just don't stop and think. We use so much of our brain that at times, will hurt our surrounding. Our actions and words (from brain) sometimes can be unintentional, but it's always a hard truth that it'll hurt people.

I love the tagline of Ignite Community Church (ICC)- a hospital for sinner, not a museum for saints. We are imperfect, we go to church as a sinner, to repent our sins to God for us to be a better person. Continue to go to church people, you'll realise one day that your relationship with God is so wonderful, for you be able to spread this love to others as well, including your enemy :)

Freshman Camp: School of Medicine

Oh yes, i'm not promoting again about UCSI University Terengganu Campus, but here we were again, headed back to KT for Freshman Camp for the School of Medicine. Donno why, i was really looking forward to this camp even though i'm not the direct liaison in this camp. For me, i feel Freshman Camp has achieved a certain level of fame. At least, i know that when we mentioned about this camp, it has became a known instead of unknown. Nothing to brag about, it's just that sometimes, in my opinion, it just take everyone's effort to make things happen, it's a matter of who want to start first. Looking forward to my new dream! :)

this time round, it's the 4 of us. Two advisors, two speakers :)

I have to tell you.

This bunch of kids really make me feel so proud of them- the student committee! :) What's more, they were never a friend before, but now they're like superb close friend after a camp.

Their ever humble learning attitude, their teamwork and spirit, happened miraculously within a month by God's grace! :)) A great team to develop, be it now or future!

I always think, ATTITUDE is the best antidote for anything.

Campers had to cook ikan geli :) cut raw! burn it with their own set fire, and each to have a bite! :)

campers at the beach! :) It was the highlight of the camp! =)

my scholarship student who promotes UCSIU so much- the University, the Experience! :) Haha! I'm very proud to see her coming thus far :)

Front view of T'ganu Campus.

All in all, i must say this camp was a great success. Although campers could be quite nasty, could be slightly cocky than usual, but still, everyone managed to pull it thru! :) I must say, the learning spirit, the commitment really made this huge success. Encouragement to the team is also a MUST because all in all, we all need some emotional pumps! :)
