Thank God for sharing the gospel

On Saturday evening, I shared the gospel with someone. Actually she wants to believe in Jesus but she is counting the cost. She is thinking about the things that she have to give up for being a Christian. She knows what it means to be a Christian. I think that it is good that she is considering. I prayed that God will change her heart and accept the Lord Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Saviour. Thank God that I manage to share with her why Jesus is the only way and why Jesus have to die for us. Why other religion cannot save us. She is more or less quite convince. Now it is only the Holy Spirit that can work in her. May God be merciful to her soul.

My tribute to a demise friend

Today, I have received a shocking news. A friend of mine; a good video speciallist, Mr Astley Wong, who had rendered help to me before in various competitions had died in a fatal accident in Malaysia enroute to KL. He passed away in the early hours of this morning and his body is now in a hospital inKL.

I felt sad for my company for losing such a great worker. Through the emails that I have received about him, I know that he is a very responsible and hardworking person. My former 2006 primary six students who involved in SVA, do you all still remember him teaching you all how to shoot a good video and also how to edit videos? He is the man who died. I still remember the help that he had rendered to me last year which I have mentioned in

Thank God that I have learnt a lot from him. I even got a ring tone from him. This is the one and only thing that I have gotten from him. I will cherished it in remembrance of him. Farewell my friend! Great man may have gone forever but what left behind are the beautiful memories.

5 Days of Thanksgiving

These five days, I feel that I have been greatly blessed by the Lord. On last Friday night, in the youth camp, I heard a touching story from my friend that make me cry in front of so many members of Shomerim. This friend of mine nearly died in a few occasions but God had saved him from the grip of death. Stroke doesn't kill him, multiples attacks of strokes and related illnesses never stop him from walking or paralysed him, committing suicide from jumping off the building did not happen to him. Were not all these happens by the mercies of God? If he still cannot see it, he deserves to perish in hell.

How about my role in his life? Taking about that, let me tell you, I did not do much things for him. All I did was that I sms him when I feel like it. When God burdened my heart a particularly day, I would pray for him. I did not do this everyday and I did not called him to speak to him for a long period of time. Ultimately, it is the Lord who moved his heart. Cause him to bring to remembrance how God's people has been good to him. Well probably an sms at the right time will encourage someone. However, how can I be so accurate to send the right words at the right precise time? Were not our God is so powerful, great, marvellous, amazing, miraculously and plenteously good? My prayer is that this person will realise God's goodness upon him and that he will not reject God's calling again. If such a person will harden his heart, God's judicial hardening of the heart will come in. God will harden his heart and make it impossible for him to repent and receive the Lord Jesus Christ. Likewise friends, if God moves you to do something good, do not harden your hearts anymore.

On Sunday, I heard a very shocking and sad news from a friend. After the news, I felt very troubled. Miraculously, God's messenger speaks to me about loving one another as Christ love the church. I started tearing in my heart, I know that God wants me to do something for brethren. I decided to yield to the Lord's calling. I don't know how it can be accomplished, but I know that by God's strength and enabling, I will be able to do it.

On Monday, I received a news that I was able to get the ticket for this Friday fireworks festival. Actually, i was too late when I want to get the tickets. At the last minute, one person cannot go so I took the ticket. I couldn't believe that God is so good to me and answer my simple prayer to allow me to go to the festival.

On Tuesday, I was so forgetful that I nearly lost my handphone. At 19:26; Bedok MRT Station, I make a public phone call to my phone. The phone rang for a long time but nobody picks up the phone. In my mind I was thinking, “This is the end, I am going to lose my phone again!” At 19:41, I decided to make a call again. This time, it is a lady who picks up the phone. She told me to meet her at Yishun. At 20:44, I stop at Yishun MRT to make a call again. Thank God that a kind soul borrowed her phone to me. I followed her instructions to take bus service 811 from Yishun interchange and stopped at the 3^rd bus stop. I was frantically looking for a public phone but couldn't find any. In desperation, I approached two person to borrow their phone to me but they declined my request. At 20:58, I approached the 3^rd person; which is a lady issuing traffic offence notice. I called my phone again and finally got back my phone from a guy.

I am sure this few days are the most blessed days that I have encountered this year. All praise and glory unto God on high!
