hey guys, decided to stop the numbered posts. haha im not tt creative so bear with the titles a bit k? i wanted to post this last nite but was dead tired. so last nite was the last cf meeting of the yr:( gonna miss it for the next 2 months. well...at least there will be something to look forward to when sch reopens. so wanted to share my testimony to end of the sharing portion of the meeting last night but since there was not enough time i wasent able to (cos of stupid radioactive club). so im gonna share it here:)
so for those of u tt dont noe, i nv really wanted to go to jc. i was the guy who always said tt he wanted to go to poly whenever someone asked him to. my parents were supportive of it but they said tt if i did well enough i shldnt waste the results. so i made a deal with them tt if i got 12 pts for my Os tt i would go to AC. so guess what God gave me? i mean i could have gotten 13 or 11 but i got exactly 12 pts. at first i was quite reluctant to go AC cos i expected it to be stressful. and it certainly is but coming to AC has really made me grow both as a person and as a Christian.
if u knew me before, u would noe tt im super introverted but i have realised tt im becoming more friendly and fun after coming to AC. i have also grown closer to God after joining CF. so like i have to really thank God for sending me to AC. so tts my testimony tt u didnt get to hear:)
well after the meeting a big grp of us all went to Just Acia at Douby Xchange with the free flow of ice cream and drinks. good thing i dont get fat:) had a fun time there and i even met sam tay who is an old acquaintance tt i havent seen for like a yr? haha so it was good to see her again. well going to start chionging chi soon. hope i can pass it then i wont have to experience chi for the rest of my life:) cyas!!

Third Post!!!!!
hey guys guess this blog is gonna stay seeing as how this is my third post alr. was thinking whether or not to make this blog look more appealing but i guess it would be a waste of time since only like 5 pple noe abt this blog? haha so im doing this at like 1.30 and im gonna go sleep soon but i would just like to share my qt up here.
so my qt was abt being ambassadors of Christ and i mean like we all hear this like lots of times before and sometimes we dont really think much abt it but i feel tt we shld really think abt this and always rmb tt we are the ambassadors of Christ. like ambassadors of countries are seen as important pple tt represent their country... how much more important are we as ambassadors of the Savior of all mankind and how much more important is our task to represent Christ to people everywhere. as Christians i feel tt it is our utmost responsibility to be a good testimony as many people do not have a chance to noe God so their only way to see even a glimpse of His love is through us. not to name names but i see people who call themselves Christians not acting like it at all. they swear all the time and i feel do not act in a way tt pleases God. tt being said, i noe some of u would be thinking, "i have been a good testimony, i have done my job as an ambassador". but rmb tt the job of ambassadors of Christ do not end there. we are tasked to fulfil the great commission and spread the gospel but i guess u alr knew tt didnt u? haha but the main thing tt impacted me in my qt was tt sometimes we are too caught up with spreading the gospel tt we do not see the need in the home ground. many pple are backsliding and are losing their way and it is also our job as ambassadors of Christ to encourage them and help them find their way back to God. so lets keep a look out not just for those non-believers but also for those arnd us who seem to need a little bit of encouragement now and then. i really thank God for my fellow CF-ers who have always given me the encouragement i needed whenever i faced any difficulties and to remind me to always go back to God. with such great pple like stef, jan, jeann etc.(sry got too many to type everyone but u noe who u are) i feel tt God has really blessed me to be able to come to ACJC and join CF:)
so thanks guys for the support tt u have given me and dont forget abt those pple arnd u especially in church. op prelims today was ok. the teacher(dont really noe his name but he is the other chi teacher tt can speak great english other than sim eng chee) said tt i was like the most prepared speaker even though i didnt really prepare but overall he gave us a lot of pointers to work on. so after chi As im gonna be chionging op again. oh there was this video tt caleb(church member) shared with the congregation when he led worship last sun which i feel is really good. i will post it up soon so tt everyone can reflect upon it and i might share it in CF too. praying tt the last cf session goes well. going to sleep now. have a blessed day:)

SECOND POST!!!!
hey guys decided to just post something up. since someone didnt follow through with her bet tt i wont post on this blog again, i am free to post:) haha but i guess even if she did bet she wouldent have rmbed it:P
haha so enough of the inside jokes. so these few days have been quite stressful, after my last post i was swamped with lots of pw work and now im also quite stressed as i have to plan the last cf meeting for this yr. so im just taking out this small portion of my time from my op prep to blog:) so yea like i said im like quite stressed now so i decided to have my qt as i always find tt doing qt calms me down. so like my qt today was abt how God tt has blessed us with material items and tt we shld be thankful for all the things tt we have. it got me thinking like how im so blessed with like laptops and like money tt i sometimes take it for granted. i just cant really imagine how different my life would be if God didnt bless me. but the main thing that God has given to me on earth tt i really have to thank Him for are my parents. im so blessed with such great parents. like how many pple can say tt their parents are ok if they retain. seriously they are so understanding.
ok so tt was my qt for today. back to my stressness. haha so im left with op slides to finish off and send to tania, op script to finish by tmr so tt we can rehearse, and i have to plan for the cf meeting. the planning of the cf meeting is quite ok as i can work on it after op but ive got to get pple to give testimonials and to decide the schedule for it. so i am relatively stressed but i noe tt God will bring me through this period of time and tt He will guide me to plan out a successful last cf meeting. theres cf meeting tmr too so i hope tt i dont sleep too late chionging my script. so u guess im gonna go back to the stressful reality and get killed by pw. YAYS second post on my new blog and much tidier. haha hopefully pw doesent leave me brain dead. cyas!!!

God's Greater Goal
Hey whoever managed to find this blog cos i dont think im gonna tell anyone abt it just abt yet. was doing my qt and suddenly felt like typing this out and encouraging u who miraculously found this. haha yea so i just received my promos results today and they werent to bad but they werent too good either. i thought that i was ok with not doing well and even retaining but to my surprise, i started emoing like during the comm meeting tt i had today for some reason. halfway through the meeting i started to feel better and felt like my usual self again. then after the meeting, jiap showed some of us this cool video called "God's Chisel" or something like tt. although i couldent hear it tt clearly cos imacs' speakers sucks, the thing i got out of the video is tt God uses trials and tests to chisel us into an image of His Son Jesus Christ. however i didnt really think much abt it at tt time. after cf, mdm cynthia came to talk to me to reassure me tt everything will be alright. at tt time, i was like wondering why she was saying tt as i thought i seemed fine and happy and not worrying abt my results. she even said tt God gives us difficulties to improve us and tt He has a plan for us...see where this is going? haha so what made me start thinking and doing such a crazy thing as making a blog just to type this out was the qt i just had? i am using the June-Aug 2008 issue of Our Daily Bread for my qts and today's one was titled God's Greater Goal which is where my title comes from. The verses for it are 2 Cor. 12:7-10 and it is abt the apostle Paul who prayed fruitlessly that his mysterious "thorn in the flesh" be removed(2 Cor. 12:8). the main gist of the qt was tt God allows what He does not prefer, to achieve some greater goal like how He sent His own Son to die for the good of the human race and the final thoughts at the bottom of the page stated "God uses our difficulties to develop His Son's likeness in us". this got me thinking on how God really wants me to learn this by sending me 2 separate pple to share it with me and even when i didnt really get it, he taught it to me through my qt tt was from a book abt a yr old. isnt God amazing in how He is able to send this msg to me? tts what got me to creating this blog. ive always wanted to create a blog to type out my thoughts and my reflections on my qt since after i saw see yue's (or more like the mg SALT blog tt see yue renewed) but never got arnd to doing it but after seeing how amazing God truly is, i just had to type it out. maybe ill never post on this blog after today but this post will always remind me of how wonderful God is. i figure tt whoever is checking out this blog must have stopped reading by now seeing how untidy and lengthy this post is but i just feel tt i need to type this. so wad i have learnt from this incident is tt difficulties are meant by God to strengthen us and to make us more like Jesus Christ and tt be it i retain, advance or promote to j2, i will do my best to face the future and know tt God has made a way for me and tt He truly cares for me as i know tt God has a greater goal for me. He truly cares for us and He has a greater goal for us. if you have made it this far, thanks for reading and have a blessed day:)
