God made me for a purpose

"I believe that God made me for a purpose, but He also made me fast. When I run, I feel His pleasure." said Eric Henry Liddell

True story of the 1924 Olympics. Eric Liddell disqualified himself from the 100 meters because he wouldn't run on the sabbath. A teammate gave up his spot in the 400 meters so that he would have a chance at a medal on another day.



For His Pleasure...

Be Grateful

Smile always Be grateful with what you have.

Photo Shooting at Restaurant Chan Yue

I had my 2nd photo shooting job last week, this time is for a restaurant (Chan Yue). The purpose of the photos is for their website and menu. The foods are delicious, the boss is very kind to treat me bak kut teh. Think about it now, it makes me feel hungry. Just before I left, the place was packed with customers. That speaks how yummy are the foods.

God Can!!!

2009 has been an awesome year to me. Its only less than 2 more months, we're gonna welcome 2010. Best is yet to come, Greater things are yet to be done.

I know it is too early for me to write this post.

But I am getting excited as I preparing for next year since after i came back from my personal retreat. I am excited to see things are working after I have invested all my times and efforts since the last few years.

As God has called me with the open doors and given me the passion. I am going to hold few major positions next year in church and market place. I had a meeting with my leaders, cast out the visions and direction for next year. They have really grown up in humility and leadership. I believe in them and I know that they are rising up to be the man of God. I am so proud of them.

However, as i continue preparing and adjusting myself for the few new positions. I finally feel the challenge. In fact, I am facing few challenges now. Sometimes, I gonna ask "is that all?" and shout all my heart out "BRING IT ON"!!! Sometimes, its really bother me.

Today, I just gonna remind myself that "I do not have all the Answers". I am LIMITED.

But God says to me "You will face challenges and trials! But take courage my son. Do not be afraid. For I am with you, partnering with you to the things I have called you to do. I will Never Leave You nor Forsake You".

I may be cant. But GOD CAN!!!

We can do all things through Christ who strengthen us.

BRING IT ON!!! :)

Ohh yah!! Jesus is a Friend of Mine..

I bumped into this video while I was reading a worship pastor's blog from Texas yesterday. This is so hilarious and cute. Enjoy the video:)

A generation that seeks

We bow our hearts
We bend our knees
Oh Spirit come make us humble
We turn our eyes
From evil things
Oh Lord we cast down our idols

So give us clean hands
and give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Oh give us clean hands
and give us pure hearts
Let us not lift our souls to another
Oh God let this be
a generation that seeks
that seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob
Oh God let us be
a generation that seeks
that seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob

Chris Tomlin - Give Us Clean Hands

Price to pay

After a long time.

Finally, I have the privilege to hear my uncle (Ps Charlie) preached again last Sat. The sermon was good. Uncle Vinsky told me that his preaching has rise up to another level since the last time he heard him preached in Church (SIBKL) few years back. And I absolutely agree with him. I hope I can preach like him one day.

Ps Charlie was sharing about his testimony, how did he came to know Jesus, his suffers of poverty in his childhood, how he found his security in God, and his fear for God.

His fear for God of punishments and judgment of wrong doing, its an wake up message to me. Whoever does wrong deserve punishment and judgment.

There is a PRICE TO PAY.

I finally realized that I'm paying the price of my mistake instead asking God why putting me in such a position/situation or looking out the window find someone to blame. I am just gonna deal with myself and allow God to correct me and mold me in the mess.

AND i shall give thanks to the LORD for He is Good. His love endures forever

Ephesians 2:3-5 tell us that "All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved."

• Mercy is not getting what you do deserve / withheld punishment
• Grace is getting what you don't deserve / unmerited favor

His grace is sufficient for us, for his power is made perfect in our weakness.

We shall fix our eyes and focus on God. Not the problems. There is no problem too big for God to fix.

The devil came to kill, steal and destroy but Jesus came to revive, redeem and restore.

We do not deserve, but with his unconditional love for us, he sacrificed his life and paid the price on that Cross for our sins/my sins as a ransom of our lives/my life.




If you are not safe by God' grace today, I pray that you will come to know my friend (Jesus) one day. John 3:16

Keep Going, and Keep Your Head Above Water

Ever have one of those days, when something seems a bit 'off' but you just can't put your finger on it.. Or it seemed like all the people around you just wanted to butt heads... Or just get into some kind of weird tug of war? Sometimes you just need to take a fresh new look and get a different perspective on things. Remember to try your best to show kindness to others... (sometimes looking at things from their perspective might help.....) So, when life gets you down... Remember to just keep going, and keep your head above water... And you'll get by with a little help from your friends!

Humility + Will = Level 5.

There's always gonna be another mountain

Miley Cyrus - The Climb
Songwriters: Alexander, J; Mabe, J;

I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going

And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa
