i am in church right now, and i am using weiling's laptop to blog. haha. sorry guys, something happen and i was not able to go to school on thursday and friday, try not to ask me what happen, because it is quite personal. haha. a lot of horrible things happen this few days, and frankly speaking, i broke down. but i told myself, i cannot be defeated by the devil, i must stand up and fight, i must stand strong. i really thank God for everything that He had done for me. i thank Him for great church - heart of God church, great pastors - Pastor How and Pastor Lia, great leaders like Charleston, Ivan, Jianming and Weiling, great CG - B1, great friends like weile, peiwei, lala, alicia, janise, samantha, kaiting, rachel, jingyi, cassandra, cherly, ock, jiaxian, kelvin, jinping and every single one, and great brothers like ziang. God is so real, that no matter what happen, He is always there for you. hoGc is not just an organisation, it is a family. everyone in our church are like brothers and sisters, we are one big family. i just want to say, i BELONG to heart of God church, not just for now, but forever. i will serve my pastors and leaders for the rest of my life. church is my home. now i have nothing left, but only God and my church. God is so amazing, He have a plan for every single one. just believe in Him and trust Him, He have a perfect plan for you. i am so glad to be in hoGc, just like what pastor ed king said, we go to a church, not by our choice, but by God's choice. God put me in hoGc, i am going to grow and build the church, because the church first build me. i know that no matter what happen, your leaders will always help you, even if it is in the mid-night, even if he is not free, but he will still come, not because he have to do it, but because he want to do it, because he love you. so guys, be thankful to your leaders and your pastors! haha :D i have to go for a outing with charleston now, i will be back to school when everything is fine. see ya! :)

WHY SO SERIOUS?

2008-07-28T22:20:00.008+08:00

i am here to blog again! miss me? haha! just want to talk abit about my life. today was not a very good day for me, because my hair was being caught by the school, and the stupid barber cut it. it really look stupid, and i have slope at the back. AH! i am very sad about it. after school went to AMK to watch movie with B10. Batman - The Dark Knight! it is a really very cool movie! and i really love the joker in the movie! "WHY SO SERIOUS?" haha. so cool! i admit that he is abit "disgusting", but trust me, he is cool. Heath Ledger is such a professional actor, i read a article that talks about him. as he want to act out the character - joker perfectly, he lock himself in the hotel room for 3months, without going out, and he did not sleep for whole 3months. he look into the heart of a clown and try to imitate the joker in whatever things he do. he lock himself up in the room for 3months without sleeping, just to make himself mad, just like the joker. and he did not disappoint us, the joker is perfect. if you really look inside this character, you will think that Heath Ledger is such a good actor. but the sad thing is, he died after he complete the movie, that is wasted. everybody! go and watch this movie! THE DARK KNIGHT! haha! :)

LIVING LIFE

2008-07-23T17:59:00.003+08:00

hello! i am here to update my blog! haha :) my blog is still alive. i did not go to school today because i was sick, really! when i woke up this morning, my throat is burning! ah~ so i did not go to school. when i wake up, it was already 2.30pm. so i went to supermarket to buy vegetables, tofu, fruits and drinks. i am on daniel fast! cannot eat meat or rice for 1 whole week, it is ok, i am not hungry. >.<>

it look nice right? it is delicious, believe me! hahaha~ jianming, peiwei, janise, ock and me went to jiaxian house yesterday, had fun there. i fall asleep halfway when i am resting on his bed, LOL. last week's Acadamic Excellence inspired me to study, i am serious! i had decided to follow the study rule and study 15hours everyweek, i will not pon school anymore, i will not sleep during lesson anymore and i will do my homework! i am serious! from now onwards, you will not be able to see me sleep during lesson! hahaha! i think i must start to do workplan everyweek, so that i am able to plan my life. life is simple, but during this simple life, we also must have a strong relationship with God. i think quiet time is really important, no matter how tired i am, i will still do my quiet time everyday, if there is somebody at home, i will go to the carpark near by to pray. reading bible is also very important, because God often speak to us through the bible. we must know how to live life! haha. doing quiet time, reading bible is all about being faithful. today i just want to talk abit about being faithful. faith and faithful is two different thing. in the dictionary, faithful means strict or thorough in the performance of duty. firstly, our God is faithful! let us look at the bible

Deuteronomy 7:9 “Therefore know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments;

throughout the bible, there are 130verse that talk about being faithful.

Matthew 25:21 His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

Luke 16:10 He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

therefore, let us be faithful to every single thing in our life! i will end this post with what Ivan told me long time ago. haha

when you are faithful to the small things, God will trust you in big things. :)

PRAYER

2008-07-17T22:55:00.003+08:00

hello guys! my last post is on 7th july, and now is 17th july. haha, i am so sorry, i was busying with alot of things. i am here to update my blog! haha :) i just want to share about the importance of prayer. recently, i have been praying alot, i went to many prayer meetings, and i have prayer conference with weile everyday. praying really help me grow alot, i used to be someone who only can pray for 30minutes, then i will started to feel tired, and begin to pray softly. but after so many prayer meetings and prayer conference, i can now pray loud and pray long. during my 4th prayer conference with weile, when we finish praying, i look at the time, wow! we prayed for 50minutes! and both of us did not feel tired at all! and during today's staff and leaders prayer meeting, i prayed for 1hour! that is really amazing, because normally during the staff and leaders prayer meeting, i always feel very tired. but today is different, i prayed for 1hour, and after i pray, i can feel the energy coming in my body, that was so cool! God also being to put revelation in my heart, i also grow in wisdom! there are many verses in the bible that tell us the importance of prayer, here are some of the example.

MATTHEW 7:7 Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

MATTHEW 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

PHILIPPIANS 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

pastor said that we must be a spiritual person, and being spiritual means that we must have the mind of Christ, and we must pray more. i really think that prayer help us alot, wheneven i feel tired i will pray, whenever i feel sad i will pray. and when you let your requests be made known to God, God is going to answer your prayer. so let us pray loud and long. i really encourage everyone to come for the staff and leaders prayer meeting at least once per week, it will really help you to have a break through in your spiritual life! PRAY!!!!!

I AM THE MIRACLE

2008-07-07T22:44:00.006+08:00

this weekend is awesome and amazing, God is giving me lots of chances to grow.

saturday's discipleship class with ivan is awesome, he said that when he look at the namelist in this discipleship class, he decided to share about his own revelation when he was in church for 1 year, he said that we are just like the past him. ivan shared a very powerful sermon on five loaves and two fishes. it is a story about how Jesus use only five loaves and two fishes to feed five thousand people. everyone of us have our own five loaves and two fishes, it is our talent and strength. it might seem to be small to other people, but if you believe in God, and give your five loaves and two fishes, He is going to multiply them and use you. are you confident that God is going to use you? do you believe that God is going to use you? God created us for a purpose, God have a plan for every single one on this planet, we must be secure and confident in our ability, and when we are secure, faith will come. we must have confident in God's creation, we must have faith and believe that God has given everyone a gift of talent, just that we have to find out by ourselve. find out our five loaves and two fishes, and give them to God.

after my discipleship class, i went for getting started bible study, even though the things are very basic, but i really learnt alot from garrett, sometimes when we are trying to go up to another level, we usually forgot about our basic, i think this is a good chance for me to learn how to be a basic christian.

after bible study is service prayer meeting, it was awesome, the presence of God was there, i can felt it so strongly, God is there. pastor how said that hoGc is going to a whole new level, we pray so much that he can feel that the thickness of our spirit is getting stronger and stronger, we need to be prayer warriors!

after prayer meeting is saturday service with pastor how! the sermon is just too powerful, pastor how shared about spirituality. being spiritual is about the inside, not outside. being spiritual is about your character, and being spiritual is about having the mind of Christ. we must set our mind on the spirit! having the carnal mind is not being spiritual, and having carnal mind cannot please God, only faith can. a spiritual person is someone walk with peace and faith. do not ever doubt yourself, devil walk through your insecurity. at the end of the service, pastor how said something very powerful. "i don't need to prove to that i am the best pastor in the world, i don't need to prove that heart of God church is the best church. i don't care what other people say about me, i don't care what other people say about heart of God church. i am secure in God's love. i know that He is always there for us, and the only thing i need to know is that, God love us." i am so impacted by this. pastor also shared that the devil also try to attack people by the word "if", just like what he did to Jesus when Jesus is fasting for 40 days and 40 night. he said this to Jesus, "if you are the son of God, then you will turn all this stones to bread, prove to me." Jesus can easily do that, but He did not, because He is secure, He do not need to prove to the devil, He know that He is the son of God.

all these thing really goes into my heart, i must say this. i am a very insecure person, i always trying to prove something to other people, sometimes even to myself. whenever the devil says "if", i will always prove something, and all these are all wrong. i must know this, whatever i am doing, is all to glorify Him, and not to prove anything. i always think that i am just a ordinary person, i cannot do anything for church. i am not as outgoing as other people, i am not as spiritual as other people, i cannot lead people. i had been always trying to be other people, but now i know, i must be secure in God's love, i must have faith that God is going to use me, and my five loaves and two fishes are important to Him. i do not need to be other people, i just need to be myself. because God love me for who i am, and God have a plan for my life. after all this, i am going to change myself and renew my mind. now i can tell the whole world that, I LOVE THE WAY I AM and I AM SECURE IN GOD'S LOVE! everyone can be a miracle to God, He is waiting for us to give our five loaves and two fishes to Him. as a church builder, i am going to rise up and build the church together with all my leaders and pastors! ask yourself now, are you secure enough to say this, "I AM THE MIRACLE!"

at the end of this post, just want to share this amazing song with you, this is from serena. :)
FIVE LOAVES AND TWO FISHES

A little boy of thirteen
was on his way to school
He heard a crowd of people laughing
and he went to take a look

Thousands were listening
to the stories of one man
He spoke with such wisdom
even the kids could understand

The hours passed so quickly
the day turned to night
Everyone was hungry
but there was no food in sight

The boy looked in his lunchbox
at the little that he had
He wasn't sure what good it'd do
there were thousands to be fed

But he saw the twinkling eyes of Jesus
the kindness in His smile
and the boy cried out
with the trust of a child he said:

"Take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will
I surrender
Take my fears and inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
to feed them all"

I often think about that boy
when I'm feeling small
and I worry that the work I do
means nothing at all

But every single tear I cry
is a diamond in His hands
and every door that slams in my face
I will offer up in prayer

So I'll give you every breath that I have
Oh Lord, you can work miracles
All that you need is my "Amen"

Take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will
I surrender
Take my fears and inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
I hope it's not too small
I trust in you
I trust in you

Take my five loaves and two fishes
Do with it as you will
I surrender
Take my fears and inhibitions
All my burdens, my ambitions
You can use it all
no gift is too small

sorry for such a long post, see ya! :)

PRAYER WARRIOR

2008-06-20T23:54:00.003+08:00

before i start sharing about what happen this few days, i must blog about this! just after the leaders conference a few days ago, i was praying and praying, then i open my bible and start reading 1 samuel! God give me this verse, 1 SAMUEL 1:18 And she said, “Let your maidservant find favor in your sight.” So the woman went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad. look at this! after she pray, her face was no longer sad! sometimes when we are facing problems in life, we must stand fast in the Lord and pray! and after we pray, we must believe that God is going to answer our prayer! so we must not be sad anymore! we must replace our sorrow with the joy of the Lord! and that means we must have faith! ok, that is my recent revelation. nowadays i can feel that my inner man is growing. i have been to 4 prayer meeting this week, and i have really praying alot alot. i believe that God heard my prayer! prayer is the most important things in my life, and i must live a prayer life! be a prayer warrior! pray pray and pray! everything is alright. :D

to peiwei & lala:
keep believing in God and have faith that He is going to heal your friend! believe believe and believe! bring back the smile to your face! =)

to team ctss:
let us work together as a team and bring the revival to our school! 20!

God, i really need your help now...

2 I implore Euodia and I implore Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord.
3 And I urge you also, true companion, help these women who labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always, Again I will say, rejoice!
5 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

8 Finally, brethen, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things.

just now i was in a very powerful conference with jianming, he shared with us about his revelation, Philippians 4:1-7! it is really very powerful, jianming had taught us how to be a prayer warrior! prayer is really important in our walk with God, and i decided to pray stronger everyday and do what jianming told us to do. i also need to have a 4th dimension thinking, everthing is easy, believe for things to happen! nowadays keep doing the wrong things over and over again, i must change myself before i can change others! i have too much dreams, and i must give up some of them, but the most important thing is other people's dream, OTHERS, i must learn to live a other's life, think about others before thinking about myself, that is what i should do. life began to be abit mess up now, but i still must keep going on, because there are still many things that God want me to do. God, show me a way, i am confuse right now.

finally played basketball today, but i just got the chance to play 1 match, because it is raining! after that slack at coffee shop and andrew came my house to play psp together. it had been a very long time since i met andrew and play psp together, it was fun! anyway, i changed my hairstyle again, just a little bit different, haha! :D nowadays i am reading this comics call 'BECK'. it talks about how a young boy chasing after his guitar dream, it is really cool! i want to learn guitar too! haha! :D

weird things are running in my mind now, God, help me...

SEEK THE KINGDOM OF GOD

2008-06-01T01:28:00.002+08:00

i am back from the secondary school camp in church, it is fun! i am team 1's IC assistant, but most of the time my team IC is not around, so i became the team IC of team 1. our team is cool stuff, we are teamo supremo! met alot of new friends and had fun with them through out all the activities. eventhough our team didn't win in the end, but we still enjoy the camp! now let me talk about Pastor Tan's service on friday night, you know what? i am totally blown away by him. his teaching really goes into my heart, i learnt so much from him. at the end of his sermon, he gather all the CGLs to go infront and he want to pray for them, as a usher, i have to go infront to help out too! the whole church start praying and worshiping God with Pastor Tan, even i am not the one who was being touched by Pastor Tan, but the presence of God is so strong that i almost fall under the power of God. i cannot stop crying, i was not just simply tearing, i was crying. my whole heart cried out to Jesus, my Lord and Saviour. my whole body is shaking, the presence of God is so strong that night, so strong. eventhough i enjoy the whole service alot, but our usher team didn't do a great job, we really made alot of crap work. i learnt alot through all the mistakes, i believe that my next duty will be different. i will see things at a SL's level, do things at a SL's level. saturday morning is Zone F service, Dominic preach such a great sermon on how youth can be a leader. JOEL 2:28 Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions. from this bible verse, we know that young men like us see visions, and if leaders are the ones who lead their people with a vision, that means we need young people to be our leaders! and i also learnt a very power verse, 1 TIMOTHY 4:12 Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirite, in faith, in purity. what a powerful verse, do not despise youths! this shows me how youths, and not just adults can also serve God! after that we go down and eat food court, then weiling, weile, wenqi and her students went back church for adults service with Pastor Lia. she talk about significance! every human-beings want people to remember them, and most of the people try to be successful so that people will remember him, but, one day, someone will be able to break your record and be more successful than you. if we want people to remember us, we must be significant! being significant means we must be a blessing to other people. the measure of a life, after all, is not its duration, but its donation. it is not about how long we live, it is how we live. ECCLESIASTES 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts. God had put a eternity in every man's heart, we should use our life to bless others. went to eat with B1 after service, i love B1, really. then back home at around 12. abit irritated by some people, and jian ming show me another verse which is PHILIPPIANS 4:19 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. PRAYER is important, we must seek the kingdom of God at all times! AMEN!

LEADERSHIP

2008-05-24T01:00:00.002+08:00

today went for a very inspiring and powerful discipleship class, i really learnt alot from ivan, what he said really goes into my heart. prayer is important, very important. our God is big, big until we cannot imagine, words like "amazing", "big" is not enough to describe God. PRAY! pray in english & pray in tongues & sing in tongues, we must pray to overcome our flesh and totally focus in addicted into God's presence. prayer is the strongest weapon we have. and second thing is about being pregnant in the spirit! we have to imagine and visualize, as a leader of 5, a leader of 10. we must think like a leader, do things like leaders, talk like a leader, see things like a leader and most importantly, function like a leader!! JUST DO IT! we must see ourselve as a leader and act as a leader! even though i am not a leader for now, but i think i can be a leader of myself! plan for my own life, work on my spirit, and think as a leader! leadership is not about skill, it is about your heart, only when u do things like a leader, then you will be a leader. start imagine yourself as a leader of 5!! yeah! basically, today's discipleship class is just awesome, i learnt alot. today's prayer meeting is cool too! saw red rain singing on the stage for the first time, they are cool! their songs are really nice, i love red rain! ok, let me share about some other thoughts in my mind right now. i am just feeling annoyed, irritated. when things start to getting better, devil always try to destroy it. i really need to pray stronger, prayer is our strongest weapon. we really need to stand strong in God, and have faith in Him. He is there, He is always there. when you pray with faith, God will move. so just pray! pray! and pray! i am getting very tired now, tomorrow must reach church at 9am for usher. i need to pray first before i go and sleep. i just pray that everything will be alright tomorrow. good night friends!

Lord You are always here with me
There is no changing God in Thee
You are the same yesterday
and today and forevermore

Here on your promises i stand
You hold my future in Your hand
My solid rock
Almighty God
I worship you

And when the storms are drawing near
When i'm with You i dont have to fear
You're my shepherd on whom i can depend

Through the day
Through the night
I know You're always be by my side

RED RAIN IS COMING SOON!

2008-05-07T21:09:00.006+08:00

red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :) red rain :)

maybe you are wondering, why my words are in red, why i am so crazy about red rain. that is because, RED RAIN IS COMING SOON! i had already post about red rain, but just want to blog about it again!

exams are going to over, nothing to do at home? you are lucky that you are my friend, guess what, a christian rock band - red rain is coming to singapore! and guess where is it? they will come my church! HEART OF GOD CHURCH! friends, you must really come for it, if not you will regret! RED RAIN IS COOL! haha, i will surprise you all soon! DON'T BE LEFT OUT!

a storm is brewing...
the hiss of electricity pervading the silence in the air. the squeak of fingers against cold steel.
a pause, then - music: loud, in-your-face, and passionate.
red rain has blown into town.
with 3 albums under their belt and 6 tours around the global New Zealand rockers red rain return to our shores this year for their 7th world tour. the 4 man band continue to wow crowds of all kinds around the world with their groove and own style of rock. powerful rhythms, majestic solos and heartfelt lyrics give red rain its definitive edge in the music arena. taking its inspiration from bands like u2, red rain is fast on the rise to becoming just as famous.
yet, perhaps the best defining quality about the music is not the blazing solos or the thundering drumbeats - it's the energetic, God-infused lyrics and heart behind each and every song. meld the christian themes of life, love and hope with modern-day rock, and the end-result? a sound that is altogether defining and gratiying for any audiophile.
catch the action as it precipitates this 24-25 May, 3-6pm.

SOMETHING IN MY MIND

2008-05-07T15:29:00.004+08:00

today is a maths paper, 34marks gone for sure, don't know how to do, really very hard. i think i won't be able to do well in Mid-Year, God, help me! tomorrow is my last paper, physics. don't understand anything, arrghh~!! ok, stop thinking about it, anyway, after tomorrow, i am free! tomorrow is very simple, 9.40 reach school, 11.45 can go off. going to meet serena to borrow her guitar, then go church to learn some advance photoshop tactic from eric, i only know the basic. and 5pm! worship session! wow, i miss my CG. after exam, everything will be back to normal, i need to work hard for red rain. yesterday after my quiet time, a lot of crazy ideas about team ctss and red rain concert just come into my mind, they are really crazy ideas! when a crazy person say something is crazy, it's really crazy, need to redo my plan again. red rain is cool! must come! i have alot of work to do about it! arrghh~ have to do it on my own, but it's ok, God will help me. this week chat with a lot of people, wei le, wei ling, serena, zi ang, jian ming and ivan. yesterday very funny, chat with zi ang on msn, very crap.

X: my favourite song for the season is superman. suit my feeling.

Z: mine is 情非得以.

X: ? fall in love with someone?

Z: ya

X: don't tell me is Jesus, i know what you are thinking. haha

Z: you think 破梗 very fun is it? LOL

X: we should think of some new 梗.

Z: you got any new one?

X: yeah...

then i tell him some new cold jokes i have. 10minutes later, after my 7th joke.

Z: xinchi, you know what?

X: ? what?

Z: lucky i am a Christian now, and i am your leader.

X: if not you will whack me? LOL

Z: i will make sure you can't remember your surname. LOL

yeah, we are very lame, haha! nowadays thought of some old memories, very funny, those stupid things i did with zi ang. run around causeway point to escape from a gay who was trying to follow us home, those nights we spend together to train basketball, those problems our baskbetball team had, those stupid jokes, those songs we like to sing, those comics we like to read, those girls we like, those pai kia stuff which ZI ANG did and many things, maybe will blog about it next time, we did too many things. LOL! red rain is coming real soon, and that remind me of my favourite rock band, MAYDAY五月天!

yeah, use to love them alot. i love rock band, love their attitude towards music, love their heart towards music, love their passion towards music, love their power towards music. rock band is cool! they express themselve through the wonderful music they made, they love life, love people, love music. MAYDAY is really cool, must listen to their songs! you can borrow their CDs from me. rock band is COOL! ok, change topic now. it's time for me to stand up and run, there are still many things for me to learn before i can rise up to be a leader. for me, i think a leader need four things. heart, character and attitude, a strong inner man and skill. and i am weak in all these things! must keep growing! i have many things that i want to do during this june holiday, i want to do more things for B1 and church and bring team ctss into a higher level. and there are others things that i want to do also, learn guitar, learn popping from o school, it's on friday, so won't clash with my church service. but i must focus on red rain now! there are many others things that i want to do, but my dream is to build dream! so must put my dream in my heart first. ok, eventhough there are still many things i want to share in my blog, but it's time for me to rest for awhile, i am hungry! haha, good luck for your last paper tomorrow. =)

SUPERMAN IS NOT EASY

2008-05-06T16:20:00.002+08:00

I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
I’m just out to find
The better part of me

I’m more than a bird
I’m more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It’s not easy to be me

I Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see

It may sound absurd
But don’t be naive
Even Heroes have the right to bleed

I may be disturbed
But won’t you concede
Even Heroes have the right to dream

It’s not easy to be me
Up, up and away
Away from me

It’s all right
You can all sleep sound tonight
I’m not crazy
or anything

I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
Men weren’t meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me

It’s not easy to be me...

STUPID CHEMISTRY

2008-05-06T15:00:00.003+08:00

today's exams are just.. arrghh! e math paper2, a few questions don't know how to do, again, 13marks gone. and chemistry is like... i don't know what to say, i only spend half of the time given to finish everything, you know why? i don't know how to do, so just anyhow write. fail for sure, sectionB and C, 70marks, guess what? i only know how to do a few questions, and that can only give me 12marks if i never make any mistake. arrghh! forget it, chemistry is not for me. still the samething, after school, went home alone. read my favourite book, it is really a very nice book, i already finish half of it, i will blog about it next time, because i have too many things to share about the book. the problems doesn't seem to getting better, but i will still keep praying for that. tomorrow is wednesday! fasting! i am fasting on every wednesday, to build my inner man. and tomorrow i will be fasting for the problem also, hope that everything can be back to normal? i know it's hard, but still the samething. PRAY! eventhough the problem seem to be getting bigger and bigger, but God is with me, everything will gonna be alright! that's all what i want to say now, maybe will blog again later. see ya!!!

PRAY PRAY AND PRAY

2008-05-05T23:33:00.004+08:00

if you read the quiz that i did, you will know that one thing i fear is chemistry... and guess what, tomorrow is my chemistry exam! arrghhh! and i don't get anything, flunk for sure. but i tell myself, i must pass. i just cannot understand a single thing from MOLE! what is that? i just read read and read, and i just understand abit about it. ok, enough of chemistry, it's time for me to relax, drink something, then pray and sleep. just now felt better after sharing all my problems with serena, sometimes, people are just hard to understand what they are thinking, 人心隔肚皮. and i really don't know what to do about the biggest problem in my life now, but ivan told me this, what is the diferent between a secular leader and a christian leader. one might come to a place where he don't know what to do. but one always know one way to solve everything, PRAY! pray pray and pray, that is the only way and the shortest way that i have to solve the stupid problem. devil, get lost! i must keep having faith in God and in me. PRAY! that is the only thing i can do now, even i feel really upset about it, really angry about it, really don't know what to do about it, but it is normal for human to feel it in this way, but it is all about what we are going to do next. i hope that the misunderstanding between me and some people can be solved, i hope that i can have a better relationship with people around me, especially team ctss. ok, that's all for today, i want to relax abit then go and sleep. good luck for your exams!

WHERE IS JESUS GOING?

2008-05-05T15:00:00.005+08:00

i don't really know what to say about today, abit down. will flunk my e maths paper1 and social studies for sure, not because i didn't study, just that i don't have time to finish all the questions. tomorrow is my e maths paper2 and chemistry, i just simply hate chemistry, for no reasons. ok! enough of exams, that make everyone feel like punching their teachers. today abit down, not just because of the exams, also must to keep my mouth shut at all times, so that i won't say or do anything wrong to make others misunderstood me again. one case is enough. sometimes, dreams may just seem to be too far, too far. sometimes, vision may just seem to be so blur, so blur. sometimes, emotions may just seem to be out of control, out of control. (sound like literature) but i already decided, so dump all these things into the rubbish bin. because, i want to live a life of OTHERS! i was reading the book written by Pastor Joakim. For A New Generation - Reaching The Schools For Jesus. i just finish the first few chapters, but it is so inspiring. at this point of time, i want to ask all the christians a question, WHERE IS JESUS GOING? "Follow me." just two simple words, many people throw away their dreams and follow Him. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever, so Jesus is saying the samething to His disciples yesterday, today and forever. so now He is telling his disciples today, "follow me". to you and me. we often reply "yes, i will follow. to where You are going", and it's the correct answer, but do you know, WHERE IS JESUS GOING? you maybe thinking, who will ask this kind of question? haha, but tell me frankly, when you want to follow someone to go somewhere, will you want to know where he or she is going? Where is Jesus going? where does Jesus want me to follow Him to? the answer is that Jesus is going where He is always going. to the lost. to those that need Him the most. to all of those whom He has died for, but who may never had an honest chance to hear about Him, and if they want to say their own yes to Him. to follow Jesus doesn't just mean going to church on Sundays. not just going to CG meeting. but also to your friends, to your class, and to move on from there into everything that will become your world in the future. i am impacted, totally. to follow Jesus, we can't just go to church, we must impact other people's life! maybe some of you may think that, what is xinchi talking about, but nevermind, i just want to share this in my blog.

despite the fact that you are young. despite the fact that you are not perfect. despite the fact that you might not think you dare to do it right here and now.
"The Lord is with you, mighty warrior. Go in the strength you have - I will be always with you."

today went to jian ming's house and study, but didn't really study alot. we just play around, and i was the one who did all that. haha. today was super fun, we had fun reading someone's blog. and i won't tell you whose blog is that. nowadays just don't feel like blogging, because nobody is reading, type for myself to see? haha. that stupid thing just can't get over my mind, everytime i thought of it, i will feel like punching the wall. but whenever i am with my CG, all the problems are gone, and i really love to be with them! i need to pray more to God and ask Him to help me with it. borrow a book from jian ming called "FOR A NEW GENERATION. REACHING THE SCHOOLS FOR JESUS" it was written by one of my favourite pastor, Pastor Joakim! i just simply love him, i love his sermon on being a school changer, if i didn't listen to his sermon, i won't even thought of bringing my school for a revival, he is just a amazing man of God. that's all i want to say today, going to study for exams tomorrow, i hate social study....

I SIMPLY LIVE FOR YOU

2008-05-03T23:34:00.002+08:00

today is pledge day, the service is just powerful, so powerful. pastor preach a inspiring sermon, it's about building dream. there are five stages when you are having a dream.
1. Birth of a dream
2. Delay of a dream
3. Death of a dream
4. Resurrection of a dream
5. Fufillment of a dream
it is very true, pastor also talk about when you have a dream in you, people will start to attack you dream and devil will attack you too. i have a dream, i have many dreams. but i just want to give them up, and concentrate on God's business. i want to be a dreamer! and live a life of big dreams! i remember what ivan told me very long ago. we must dare to dream, dream is free so dream big! dream and vision is very important for people. we must have a vision and run towards it. today pastor share a very powerful thing. make the dreams of others come true and God will make your dream come true. it just impacted me. i had been always chasing after my dreams, work very hard for it. but now, i decide to make other people's dream come true, and one day, God will answer me. i just love today's worship song. i simply live for you.

Say the word and I will sing for You
Over oceans deep I will follow
If each star was a song
And every breath of wind praise
It would still fail by far to say
All my heart contains
I simply live
I simply live for You

As the glory of Your presence
Now fills this place
In worship we will meet You face to face
There is nothing in this world
To which You can be compared
Glory on glory
praise upon praise
You bind the broken hearted
And save all my tears
By Your word You set the captives free
There is nothing in this world
That You cannot do
I simply live
I simply live for You

the lyrics is just so powerful. and one more song, but i forget the name of it. the lyrics is like this. one word, You know i will follow. one heart, broken to You. use me again, Your mercies follow me, for all my days. i really like the part, "one word, you know i will follow." yes, Lord! i will follow You forever! speak to me, i will do everything for You. today's sermon also teach me another thing, i am just thinking too much, i just need to concentrate and serve God! that's all! all other things is not important, because God is everything. sometimes. we might just do everything on our own, and depend on our own, and rely on our own. but we must remember this, God is always with us. just keep praying! and God will answer you. for lala and peiwei, there might be alot of things happening in your life, there might be alot of problems in your life. but it is satan who is trying to destory your life! we must stand stong and believe in God. don't depend on yourself, lift your problems to God and believe in Him! just keep praying, pray and pray. just like the wall of jericho fall down by the power of prayer, so just keep praying! and your problems will be destroyed by the power of our Lord. that's all what i want to say now. TAG!

He will always help us, so seek Him! God is just amazing, if u experience it, you will know. i don't know how others think about me, maybe they will feel weird, why xinchi's blog is always about God and church? you know why? because i simply love Him with all my heart and all my souls. you won't know how He change my life and how much He had done for me. He is my LORD, forever and ever. nowadays really don't know how to control my mind, it just seem to be out of my control. but thanks to all my leaders and friends, and of course, God! i had think through everything, and decided to be myself, just be myself. that's all. i don't need to think about other stuff, i had been thinking too much le... you won't know the biggest secret in my mind, and i don't wish to tell anyone. it just irritated me alot, and i just simply cannot control myself to stop thinking about it... but i will lift it to God, and let Him settle everything. ok, change topic. i have a new vision now! i want to be a SL in usher by next year, cool right? yeah~ =) i love USHER!! that's all i want to say today.. bye!

after talking to jian ming on the phone yesterday, feel much better. i also knew what am i lacking to be a leader, character and attitude. i must stop emo-ing! so today i was 80% back, 20% emo because i am fasting, those who know me well will know that i can't be happy without food. 10 more mins to break fast! not breakfast, is break fast. even sometimes i will still think of that stupid thing, but i never show it out! i must learn how to keep all the sorrow to myself and lift them to God. yesterday when i was reading my bible, (going to finish the book of Matthew..) one verse just hit me. MATTHEW 21:22 And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive. such a powerful verse, we can't just pray, we must have faith to believe that God will answer our prayer, and He is answering to our prayer. FAITH!! by faith, we can overcome the world. i had decided to fast on every wednesday, to build my inner man. i reach home quite early today, so hungry until i feel like fainting. i turn on my favourite worship song "heart of worship" and dwelt in the presence of God, i felt it. it was good and it help me overcome the temptation. Lord, eventhough my flesh might be weak, but my spirit is strong, with You in my heart, all things are possible. i love worshiping God, it just make me feel better. today had a nice chat with ock during SS. he is awesome, he just grow so much and i can't even believe my own eyes. all thanks to God, who change people's life. eventhough this period of time i am very emo, but i learn alot. just want to say thanks to some people who show concern to me during this period of time.

to lala:
thanks for hearing all my stupid problems, thanks for your concern and care for me, thanks for letting me feel that there are someone who i can rely on, thanks alot, really! you always make me feel better! =)
to peiwei:
thanks for the cute picture you draw for me, eventhough i think i look better than him, thanks for the concern given by you! thanks!
to ock:
thanks for your concern that day, i feel better already. thanks for opening your heart to God and let Him change your life. i am so proud of you.
to debbie:
thanks for your concern this few days, thanks for all your stupid stories, thanks for praying for my guitar! thanks!
to eric:
thanks for your joke this few days, thanks for your concern. and i did not smoke or drink! =)
to carey:
i was shock when i receive your message that day, thanks for your concern. thanks for always talk to me whenever you see that i am alone. eventhough we are from different church. but we are all serving God! let's grow together.
to kavin:
thanks for entertain me these few days, we like to suan each other, but it's fun! thanks man!
and of course, to jian ming:
thanks for chatting with me yesterday, i really learn alot from you. thanks for always disciple me and let me follow you, it's such a privilege to serve God under you. there are still many things for me to learn before i can rise up in B1, keep discipling me! thanks jian ming!

feel that i should read my bible before i break fast. i love my bible! anyway, XINCHI IS BACK!

today is just a very normal school day, as usual, fall asleep in class many times. even though i still cannot get over the problems in my life, but thanks to those people who concern me yesterday. thanks lala for listening to all my feelings, thanks debbie for telling me all the stupid jokes, thanks peiwei for your concern and the picture, thanks carey for your message, thanks ock for your concern and care for me. i know that i am thinking too much, but i just cannot stop thinking about it. i felt that the old xinchi is coming back, and i don't want it to happen. i tried my best to involve into other people, but i just can't... and that stupid feeling and thoughts are still in my mind, i just can't get over it. i will try my best to come back. red rain concert is coming, and i have lots of things waiting for me to do, but i will settle it on myself, using my own strength. it's easier and faster. just leave me alone for these few days, i don't feel like talking. just feel tired of everything, maybe i should really stop thinking of something. the thoughts in my mind really irritated me alot. who should i reply on? once again, thanks for all the concern.

LEAVE ME ALONE

2008-04-28T18:05:00.005+08:00

today is a bad day, even though nothing horrible happen to me, but i am just in a bad mood, very bad mood. the problems that trouble me these few days is still there, maybe that is the reason why i am in a bad mood? i don't know.. God spoke to me yesterday, just one short sentence, but it speaks into my heart. "you are not alone." i am not alone, God is with me at all times. after these few days, i came out with a plan, i am gonna to settle things on my own. i will depend on my own, and God. that's all. God is the only one, who will listen to all my stories, and always be there for me whenever i am lonely. who will care for me? who will notice that i am down? who will always console me and accompny me when i am depressed? who can i reply on? only God, just God. nobody else. what am i doing? i don't know.. really.. now, everything just make me sad, only church make me happy. hoGc is my only home, and the only place where i can have joy. sorry if i ignore any of you today. and thank you for the concern from some people. just leave me alone. i am fine. leave me alone.

CARRY THE PRESENCE OF GOD

2008-04-27T23:29:00.004+08:00

today, wake up at 9am to put some new psp games into my psp, it had been a very long time since i put new games inside. then prepare to go clementi and meet lala to study together, she is late again! haha.. lala look very horrible today, when i saw her at clementi, i knew that something is wrong, so i ask her if she is ok. oh no! lala is sick! get well soon lala! i will be praying for you. while we are on the way to church, lala was revising her chinese, and i was reading my bible. and God put a verse into my heart. MATTHEW 19:26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." this verse hit my heart, i am having lots of problems nowadays, why i didn't have the faith that God is going to put miracle into my life? where is my faith? yes, truely, with God all things are possible. and with faith, we can overcome this world. i need to increase in faith. when you are faithful to small things, God will trust you in bigger things. back to the story, when we reach paya lebar, lala look like she is going to faint. so we walk to church quickly and sit at the alfresco. i told lala to sleep for a while, and i continue to do my maths homework. after peiwei they all came up, we joke around for a while, and get down to sit for service. today's service is amazing, after worshiping God, Pastor How told us this. we cannot just walk into the presence of God, we need to carry it. i want to carry the presence of God, i want to feel it at all times. i love the presence of God, it make me feel warm and i feel a peace in my heart. God is amazing, i love the worship song today. "everyday, i draw closer to you Lord, i long to see Your face, and hide in Your embrace." i love this part, we need to grow in God everyday, we must worship Him everyday. i love Him. then Pastor How continue to share about SOWING RELEASES THE MIRACLES OF GOD. we must be a sower! i love what Pastor told us, "if you want something which you never had before, you must do something which you never done before." we need to have faith in God. if you want happiness, give happiness. if you want money, give money. if you want love, give love. this reminds me of what Pastor shared a few months ago. only when you give love, you receive love, and when you receive love, you give love. that is love. whatever you want, sow it! and in the end, lala! get well soon! =)

RED RAIN IS COMING!!!

2008-04-27T01:00:00.002+08:00

before i sleep, i need to show all of you this! www.redrain.sg . if you do not know anything about red rain, you are left out!

a storm is brewing...

the hiss of electricity pervading the silence in the air. the squeak of fingers against cold steel.

a pause, then - music: loud, in-your-face, and passionate.

red rain has blown into town.

with 3 albums under their belt and 6 tours around the global New Zealand rockers red rain return to our shores this year for their 7th world tour. the 4 man band continue to wow crowds of all kinds around the world with their groove and own style of rock. powerful rhythms, majestic solos and heartfelt lyrics give red rain its definitive edge in the music arena. taking its inspiration from bands like u2, red rain is fast on the rise to becoming just as famous.

yet, perhaps the best defining quality about the music is not the blazing solos or the thundering drumbeats - it's the energetic, God-infused lyrics and heart behind each and every song. meld the christian themes of life, love and hope with modern-day rock, and the end-result? a sound that is altogether defining and gratiying for any audiophile.

catch the action as it precipitates this 24-25 May, 3-6pm.

don't ever miss this! i love rock band, especially God's rock band. they use their music to worship God and glorify God! i love to write songs! red rain is just a amazing band of 4 man of God. i love red rain, i love God! make yourself free on 24-25 May!!

FINAL FANTASY VII CRISIS CORE

2008-04-27T00:27:00.003+08:00

some photos about final fantasy VII. a must-play-game for psp!

AFTER B-BOY OPEN COURSE

2008-04-26T20:34:00.002+08:00

today went to o school for b-boy open course, everything is bad, everything. some of the moves that KH taught us a few weeks ago, i am still struggling with them. such as swipe and air-freeze, and i will be having my b-boy open course audition in two weeks time, what should i do? it will really be very embarrassing if i am still doing b-boy intro course moves in open course's audition. still the same set of moves? some simple top rock, then go to six step, three step then chair, baby-freeze and shoulder-freeze? it will not work, at least i must learn how to do air-freeze! ok, enough of breaking... today watch the ending of final fantasy VII(if i'm not wrong), it is a very famous psp game. the graphic is really good. i love then last sentence Zack said to Cloud when he is going to die, "when you meet her, can you tell her that i became a hero?" if you know the story of final fantasy, you will be touched. before Zack die, he pass his sword to Cloud, and said to him, "you are my living legacy, take my dream, take my honor, and live..." you must watch final fantasy if you haven't. it's a nice story. somethings in my mind is still irritating me, i really cannot get over it, what should i do, God? i am going to be alright, because i am the child of God. i just cannot stop thinking about it, whenever i don't have anything to do, it just flood my brain, i am getting tired of it. i need to overcome it!

SHORT POST

2008-04-26T13:47:00.004+08:00

nothing to do now, just wake up not long ago, later going o school for breaking lesson. last week i did not go because of combine service in church, nowadays feel abit sian about o school, all the moves KH taught us are very difficult, and some of the move i still can't do. but i will not give up! i do not know why, just feel like saying this. i am just a ordinary boy, everything in me is normal. but i know, to God i am not ordinary. to God, i am not an accident, i am not ugly, i am unique, i am accepted, valued and loved, and i have a purpose. when i wake up this morning, feeling irritated by myself, but God reminds me of what Pastor How said during easter friday. even i am just a normal boy, who live a normal and simple life, who do not really have a lot of true friends, but i know i am loved by God for who i am. nowadays very emotional, i don't know why, maybe is because i have too much free time. i want to grow, grow stronger stronger and stronger in God, that's all i want to do, and that's all i can do. mayb to other people i am nothing, but to God i am different. thank you God for everything that you had given me. you are my Lord, forever.
God, i love you, thank you for loving me and always care for me. thank you for always care for this ordinary boy who have lots of problem in his life, thank you for always bless him and answer his prayer. THANK YOU LORD.

THOUGHTS AND STUFF

2008-04-26T01:07:00.002+08:00

this post will just be a short post which tell you how i feel these few days. basically everything is fine, and last sunday i was touched by God strongly. last sunday is Pastor Lia's birthday's celebration, it was fun and exciting. all the shows and programmes were super funny, i love it, will tell you the details next time. at the end of the celebration, Pastor Lia told us about then story of 'heart of worship' this song is one of my favourite worship song. yes, Pastor Lia's words goes into my heart, and i will never ever forget it. we worship God because we love Him, without the music, without the lights, without the equipments, we still love God. even when the music fades, all is stripped away, and i simply come to worship You, my Lord. the heart of worship is the most important thing when we are worshiping God, no matter how good the music is,how nice the lights is, how expensive the equipments are, without the heart of worship, we will not feel the presence of God. that day, when Pastor Lia want us to pray for her mother, Pastor Ma. when Pastor Lia began to sing a chinese song, tears just flow down my eyes, and i felt it so strongly, it was God. it has been such a long time for me to feel it so strongly after easter friday. i felt so strongly that my spirit is too weak. i have been always telling my leaders like, Ivan, JianMing and ZiAng that i want to rise up, i want to be a leader. i maybe have the skill, have the heart, but what about my spirit? a few months ago, i sms Ivan and asked him what should i do to rise up as a leader, and Ivan told me this. "hahhs. first u must have availability which u have. second, u must have great attitude. you need to keep asking JianMing to disciple u so u can grow. also have a grateful attitude and giving attitude! tithe!!! thirdly annoniting, got to keep growing in God. spend time in His presence. have a solid qt. learn to recognice God's voice by always spending time w Him. read your bible. lastly, when u have it all, u will grow in abilities. don't worry about it. when u are faithful to the small things God will trust u with bigger things. u are doing very well with the new ints... keep it up... listen to jm and do all he tells u." i ask myself, did i do all these which Ivan told me to do? did i read my bible very often? did i had a solid qt everyday? the answer is no... yes, i am growing, but so what? it's not enough, it will never enough! my spirit is weak, i need to build my inner man. i will never be a leader if i don't even have the spirit. i also told JianMing about how am i going to plan my life during exam period, and its a wonderful plan. i really want to thank God for putting so many great leaders in my life. thank you Ivan for always teaching me so many things in discipleship class, thank you JianMing for teaching me so many things through follow-up and always help me when i am in trouble, thank you ZiAng fo always care for me and have fun with me. thank you B1. these days are really simple and easy, just study and study non-stop. today, which is friday, i am super free after my english paper. so i begin to start to reflect on my life, feel irritated by myself on all the stupid things i did this few weeks. i am being such a extra person here and there, i love the time when i am being alone. it make me feel good, because i am who i am, and God love me for who i am. why am i thinking so much? why am i thinking so much about my relationship with other people? i simply love God, that is all i need to do. there are many things that i must keep it in my heart, and i will lift it all to God. i love God, that's all. today i am abit emo, over many things, not very good to share it here, but i am ok now. i think through everything, i am thinking too much, i should concentrate on God. i just want to end this post with my favourite verse in the bible.
MATTHEW 6:33
Seek first then kingdom of God and all His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

1. build a strong inner man
which means build a strong relationship wif God
2. hang out wif Godly ppl

Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

King of all days
Oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above

Humbly you came to the earth you created
All for love's sake became poor

Here I am to say that you're my God

You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you're my God

Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

EASTER TESTIMONY

2008-03-29T20:50:00.003+08:00

Haha.. this is the testimony i shared on Easter Big Day!
such a wonderful experience
lol! =)
if u nv listen clearly tt day
this is wat i shared~
haha~

Hello everyone, I’m Xin Chi from B1. I’m 16 this year and I’m currently studying in Clementi Town Secondary. As you can tell from my accent, I’m not Singaporean by birth. I actually came to Singapore from China when I was 10 years-old.
Before coming to Heart of God Church, I was a shy and quiet person. I was afraid of talking to classmates who I didn’t know, and would never raise my hand to ask a question even if I had one.
My life revolved around 3 things – school, sleep and basketball. But throughout my boring life, I had one very awesome friend – Zi Ang. Zi Ang and I go way back. I first came to know him in Primary school. And since both of us are from China, we clicked really well. Even after we went to different secondary schools, we would meet up every day to hang out and play basketball. We were so alike in the way we talked, and we spent so much time together.
One day in October 2006, out of nowhere, Zi Ang invited me to church! Out of all people, I never expected that Zi Ang would go to church or even invite me to church.
However, since Zi Ang was the one who asked, I agreed to go! And when I did come to church, I was shocked by what I saw! I expected long wooden benches and a huge cross on the wall. But how many of you think that our church is really cool? That day, I really enjoyed myself. Yet I felt that I was not ready to become a Christian and after 1 month, I stopped coming.
However, even after I left, Zi Ang kept coming back to church! And as he kept coming back, I noticed that he was changing. He stopped scolding vulgarities, and instead of spending his time slacking, he would always go to church! I somehow felt that I lost Zi Ang to church, but at the same time, I was curious about what was causing the change.
So when he invited me to come back during Easter last year, I agreed! I can still clearly remember the worship song that service. It was “Could I Ever”, and as the song played, a video from the Passion of Christ was shown. I felt the presence of God so strongly and tears just flowed from my eyes. At the end of the service when Pastor How asked who wanted to invite Jesus into their lives, I raised my hand and made the best decision of my life!
Things continued smoothly for a few months until I received my mid-year results. I did really badly and was amongst the bottom few in class. Seeing that I spent most of my time playing basketball, it was quite expected. My parents were furious, and stopped me from coming to church. Because of that, I decided to stop playing basketball so often.
I also spent less time on the computer and more time studying. I successfully improved my grades, but by then, my desire to come back to church died.
But Zi Ang just kept inviting me to church. I finally came back during the Opening service at SingPost. That day I experienced the presence of God like never before and after a long time of being away from God’s presence, I felt like a fish back in water. That day, I made a decision that I should have made a long time ago. I decided that I would be faithful to come back to church every week!
A major turning point in my life was during the first service of 2008 where Pastor How shared the vision for the year. He talked about how youths, and not just adults, can do great things for God! After that day, something on the inside of me just changed.
I began to dream about doing great things for God, and I started reading my Bible and praying for my friends every day. And instead of keeping quiet during follow-up, I kept asking my leader, Jian Ming, questions about the Bible! Moreover, just one month ago, I started serving in the usher ministry!
In school, I became more confident. In fact, during Valentine’s day, I gave out 60 lollipops to my classmates, some of whom I didn’t know! Just recently, I went out for dinner with a group of classmates. They were not the usual friends I hung out with, but I decided to get to know them! That night, as I bowed my head to thank God for my food, my classmates were surprised and started asking about Christianity. Because of that, 6 of them came to church with me! The old Xin Chi would never dare to even invite my classmates to church. But there was just something different because I had experienced God.
Now, instead of a boring life, I am living an exciting and fulfilled life! Xin Chi Version 1.0 is a thing of the past, and the new and improved Xin Chi Version 2.0 is now here!
And truly, the creators of Xin Chi 2.0 are really my Pastors, leaders, friends and of course, God. I would just like to take this opportunity to thank them for being so patient with me.
And friends, if it is your first time here today, I just want to encourage you to take a step of faith to believe in God! Your life will be radically transformed just as mine was. Thank you!
