Ephesians 3:20

"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us.."
-Ephesians 3:20

Wow, can you imagine that? I baptised my first girl last evening!!! Definitely something which i have never really imagined myself doing or can ever ask for, for now.

God kept His promises faithfully to me, and delivered more than what i asked for to me. I remembered when i made the decision to stay in sing for my work here, He gave me a vision of myself bringing girls to Encounter. Now i have a third girl going for the next Encounter, after bringing patricia and amanda to that in Sept! I never could picture a baptism happening so fast - yesh, God allowed me, by His grace, to baptise Amanda yesterday (30th Oct 2004/ Youth Service @TCT). :>

Wow...wow....i'm truly amazed by the Lord.

thats a vision dear!

Yes Lord, it is a vision. of jon bowling down on his knees at the altar in repentance. of him lifting his hands in worship for You Father. Yes it is a vision. Foolish me thought of it as a reminiscence of the past; that was why i didnt dare to think about it. Now Lord, i will cling unto the vision by faith. Thank you Father. :>

Keep my eyes focused on Jesus

Dear Father,

Keep my eyes focused on Jesus. Help me carefully consider him.

Let me see his faithfulness. Let me see his worthiness to be
honored.

Let me see him as the apostle and high priest of my confession.

Let me see him as the one who has called me to a heavenly calling.

Let me see him as the very Son of God, faithful over God's
household, and let me see myself as part of that household of
faith, and let us hold fast our confidence and our pride in our
hope.

In the name of Jesus I ask. Amen.


God teach me to be Your kind of leader.

Father, what can i do for shawna? She doesnt seem too receptive or responsive towards me.

O Lord u be the ultimate judge of whether i have been a good cell leader. Pat's little question dealt me quite a big blow actually. She asked me if she's gonna put yvonne as her cell leader in her application form to volunteer in David Club. God, how has she been viewing me? had i been lacking as a leader in her eyes? God, am i the supposed leader for her? What can i do more for pat?

O Father, i give them all up to you if you did not will me to be their leader. Kah mei, patricia, shawna, joyce. Give them each the best shepherd.

O God.....teach me.

Sigh.

Yes. I havent been prayin enough for them.
Did i direct them towards a certain direction and vision?

God i feel so lacking. I need alot alot of Your grace.

And yes God, how to draw jean, belinda, kah li, hwee jing, minghui, eloisa etc. closer to You?

Your grace is sufficient.

letter to jon.

Dear jon,

Each time i remember you in my prayers, my spirit cries.

I know how much you are unhappy and struggling out there. I feel especially broken whenever you try to be the person that you do not wish to become. And i know how much you need the Lord.

This scene flashes in my mind alot of times; I always imagine you kneeling down at the altar again, crying. My heart longs for you to raise your hands up high in worship for the Lord again. That was you.

You may feel so weak in the flesh. But i pray for God to rise up the courage in your spirit to run back to the Father. He's been waiting too long.

You are such a dear brother in my heart, that i really never want to lose you to Satan. Come back Home; come back to your Father. Stop being obstinate and stop seeking your own desires in the flesh.

I may mean nothing to you; but i know the Lord still means a great deal in your heart. Dont hide away; don't lose faith.

I will be waiting for the day when you kneel down at the altar again, the day you lift your hands towards heaven to praise the Father. I know when they come, i will be moved to tears.

luv,
mirabel

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly

I'll do what it takes til' I touch the sky

I'll make a wish

Take a chance

Make a change

And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun

But I won't forget all the ones that I loved

I'll take a risk

Take a chance

Make a change

And breakaway

Kelly Clarkson's song has once again touched my heartstrings.

God i need this type of man.

I am a man who will

Fight for your honour

I'll be the heroYou're dreaming of

We're gonna live forever

Knowing together that we

Did it all for the glory of Love

Yesh Lord, for the glory of YOUR Love.

Thank You Lord for being in my life.

holy holy is the lord god almighty

The song came on surprisingly, and it didnt fail to uplift my spirit this time too.

Holy holy is the Lord God Almighty
who was and is
and is to come..

Yesh i remember this is the song which first brought me down to my knees at the bottom of the Cross. Thank you Lord for reminding me of my salvation three years ago (almost exactly three i think), and most importantly how Your Faithfulness and Strength had carried me through these times.

The song brought me further actually, to assure that seed of faith in me that, yes Jesus would come. Come Lord, come. Come and take your place. It's so wonderful that by faith, i know He is going to come into my family as well. :)

Thank You Father.

Oh Lord, may You continue to draw kah mei nearer to You. May Your grace and love surround her at all times, especially when she feels lonely, down and even unworthy. Oh Father, may You take care of her emotions, and bring her focus upon You Father. Oh Lord, i'm sorry for those times when i had not been a good leader to her- even moments when i let myself do the wrong things (eg. jay-running) in front of her eyes, when i almost lose my patience with her etc. Oh Lord change me, and mould me to be a person who's Christlike in all my ways. May my emotions be in check with Yours too.

I'm prayin for a great breakthrough in kah mei's, patricia's and minghui's lives during the encounter. And mine too. And also kah kin's, darrence's, cerwin's and songquan's lives and barnabas's. Period.
