Awesome church!

i have once type this post out but in d end didnt post it out...so i shall do it now...this post is dedicated to one of d best church i have ever been.....i have been introduced to this church by a wonderful sister of mine, Audrey Tan!..thanks a bunch, drey!

well, i aso do believed tat its nt by coincident tat i came to this church precisely on tat moment...previously, during my 1 & 2 sem, i was attending a church in sg buluh ( i shall nt mention names here=))...but i find tat i cant really grow in tat church due to sum reasons...but i stick on till my 2nd sem..then middle of my 3rd sem, i decided to stop goin to this church n decided to take a break before i find another suitable church n prayed to God for a better church ( as my place very ulu wan, there r nt much english churches there)...how many knw tat there is no such thing as taking a break from church?...well, i have learned tat lesson well..

so nwey, we shall nt got to there yet...so wat happened was Audrey's siblings came down n i spend a weekend wif them at her place..tats where i gt introduced to Harvest Generation Church, Subang Jaya

and to tell u the truth, the very first time i step in, i feel so welcome n at ease...its jus amazing...the church service is great n the message tat is preached is really good...not to mention d church leaders which really encourage u wif their enthusiasm in serving Him..serious, im so amazed becos some of d leaders r even younger than me n yet they can do alot for Him! how awesome is tat?!...so i knew at tat point tat this is d church tat im looking for...n to tell u d truth, i have nt once regretted it although its really a distant from my place, but it is worth it!

so here r some of d pics tat i have taken during my time there:-

overall, i nvr regret of being a part of this church n i thank God for blessing me wif such a wonderful loving church!im sure goin to miss this church once i completed my studies...=(

lil things..

sumtimes life can get really busy n we tend to forget to Thank God for the lil things tat happen in life...we aso tend to take for granted those things n we only start to miss them wen they r gone..that is human nature...u learn to appreciate things only wen they r no longer there...

so i wan to take this opportunity to thank God for the lil things i take for granted all this while...

~ lil blessing from my frens when i really least expected..jus d care n love that is shown where at times i really frustrated them...yet they still loves me!=)

~ my bufday treats n celebrations tat i have..its a memorable wan...

~ God has taken care of me although at times i x feel it at all..d numbers of times of close accidents...=)

~ God have place me in a wonderful church back in my hometown for me to grow n He has aso granted me a most happening church in subang too!

~He has blessed me with wonderful frens who really shows tat there is one in a million frens (in my case) in this dark world...

~He has taught me hw to love n trust in my frens again n learn to allow myself to be taken care of...in another word, broken down my "very high" pride...

~He has seen me thru many of my trials wen i really felt i cant go on..He taught me to lean on Him instead of myself...again, d pride issues...=)

~He has blessed me with a wonderful fam in Harvest Gen who drove all d way jus to pick me up for church n aso for jus being there....

~ He has given me wat i have prayed for so long until i forgotten abt it...

~He has provided all my needs (big o small) thru my growing years...He has proven time & again tat He is faithful & He cares...

~He blessed me with really great frens tat i have grown close too tat they r like sisters to me....

~ He nvr ever gave up on me..nt once although i have given up on Him more than once...

~He has loved me with His everlasting love although its kinda hard for me to grasp tat fact....

~He send His only son, Jesus jus to die for me & the fallen world...

i can go on n on on how much He has blessed me...but i cant remember all of tat as it is so much!..but this i knw, He does love me despite for my failures & my imperfections....for tat:

Thank You Lord! Thank You for every blessing i gt from u although at times i knw i x deserve it at all...

Harvest Generation Very 1st church camp '08

church camps...dont u jus love this word?..camps r great n it does get better when it is a church camp! and to top it up, its Harvest Generation 1st church camp n i was a part of it!!=)

it been really long since i last wen to a church camp...but thank God i did have a opportunity to go for one recently n i nvr regretted my decision to go..indeed God has planned everything out when u least expected...

well, the camp im talking abt is together wif my church back in subang, Harvest Generation Church...last weekend (2-4 may), they had their first church camp at Peacehaven, Genting..,i have been to tat place for 2 times wif my hometown church but its not the place tat matters but it is d very purpose of d camp...

i have cum to this camp nt expecting much as i had a rough week before the camp...so the feeling of enjoying the camp flew out of d window but nvrtheless i choose to go as i have alreadi sign up n i really needed a break...i guess is really God' s will for me to be there....so as tired as i feel, i still went for the camp...

how timely it is for the message tat is preached is sumting tat i really needed at tat time...Ps Ryan preached about the potential tat God has place in us n the theme of the camp is Building Characters, Impacting Lifes

this msg is so timely as i really felt so dry n numb. n all those mix feeling tat u cant really grasp n explained...after the night session we had on sat, i wen back to d dorm n really cried out to God..i nvr cried tat hard to Him as far as i can remember...at the same time,i nvr expected Him to answer me but i jus needed to let it out on how i feel..n God is so amazing...He does work in many ways to show tat He does listen to our faintest cry...time n again He has proved His faithfulness n His unfailing love although so many times i doubted it...

after the morning session d next day (sun), we had prayers as a cell group n we jus continue to seek God in His presence...suddenly, one of my cell member approached me n sed tat he had a word from the Lord for me...n wat he sed to me was jus amazing...it was d very exact word tat i needed to hear n God has told me what i needed to hear...i was amazed...isnt God jus wonderful?...when u really feel unloved, He alwiz show He cares....He shows tat He is walking beside me thru this journey although many times i dont feel Him ard me...but He is there...alwiz...

its jus so amazing...i did enjoy this camp n this camp has renewed me in Him..this camp has really gave me a new meaning...i really glad tat God has planned for me to cum for this camp as He has a plan n purpose for me...n He will bring me thru this journey...im actually looking forward to c what He has for me!..what a surprise!even to me...=)

so, yeah, tat is hw my camp went abt...will post sum pics once i gt them...till then!

One of the Greatest Miracle!

Please make time and read this startling story. It's real. Our God reigns in deed and in truth.

A Muslim man in Egypt killed his wife because she was reading the Bible and then buried her with their infant baby and 8-year old daughter. The girls were buried alive! He then reported to the police that an uncle killed the kids. 15 days later, another family member died. When they went to bury him, they found the 2 little girls under the sand -ALIVE !

The country is outraged over the incident, and the man will be executed. The older girl was asked how she had survived. 'A man wearing shiny white clothes, with bleeding wounds in his hands, came every day to feed us. He woke up my mom so she could nurse my sister,' she said. She was interviewed on Egyptian national TV, by availed Muslim woman news anchor. She said on public TV, '

This was none other than Jesus, because nobody else does things like this!' Muslims believe Isa (Jesus) would do this, but the wounds mean He really was crucified, and it's clear also that He is alive! But, it's also clear that the child could not make up a story like this, and there is no way these children could have survived without a true miracle. Muslim leaders are going to have a hard time to figure out what to do with this, and the popularity of the Passion movie doesn't help! With Egypt at the centre of the media and education in the Middle East , you can be sure this story will spread. Jesus Christ is still turning the world upside down! Please let this story be shared. The Lord says, 'I will bless the person who puts his trust in me. 'Jeremiah 17

life is short & unpredictable....

recently, my goduncle, age 52,jus passed away...he passed away due to a bad stroke tat puts him into a coma for 2days...

his death is really a shock to me as i onli gt the news tat he was admitted to the hospital on sat nite...i was planning to c him in d hospital on my lunch break on mon but i was too late by a few hours...he has passed away on 12.15am on mon...

wen mum called me informing abt his death, i cudn belived it...he look healthy since the last time i saw him & he has no records of hypertension..but according to his mother(my babysitter), he did complain of a few headache but he nvr wen to the doc to check it out...if he wud have done tat, mayb his life will b prolonged...

wen i heard tat, it hit me hard tat we shudnt take for granted our life...the very fact tat im still breathing here & typing this blog is a blessing from God..constantly, wen the road gts tough, we tend to entertain tots tat is negative & ended up lossing hope...but there is more to life of we pressed on...also, wen our body started to show signs & symptoms of abnormalities, its better to go & gt it check..like the saying goes, "prevention is better than cure"....tat goes the same wif me as i do nt like to c d doc unless im really, really sick...i alwiz brush it off as nothg...tats wat my goduncle did & look wat happen to him...

so, i tink we shud live our life as if as tat day is or final day...becos in d end, u will regret for nt being able to achive ur best in life....
