The worship party yest (19/09/03) was great!!!
Was held @ Eugene's office...he's one of the pple in Ailing's Tuesday Grp (yah...tt's the name of their grp...so orig hor...hee...sorrie Ailing!)...anyway it's a designing firm @ Mohd Sultan Rd above Rush... the office is super cool! am not great with description so will spare the details...but trust me it's cool! can ask Tham, Yuen and Jim Jim...Pris and Stefan were there as well...
The worship was really liberating!! we were encouraged 2 juz worship God freely...2 put down any self-consciousness...and 2 juz worship God in our own way...we cld stand or kneel or sit or lift our hands or dance or sing or clap....basically anything...pple were going with the flow...Jim Jim syas that it feels like Womad.. =)
Coz there were playing the guitar, the Tambla (some Indian drums tt James was playing) and some other drum tt George (this other guy frm Ailing's grp) was playing... it was juz liberating....
The worship leader, Kelvin, was juz commenting that we're like we're @ the upper rm...above the pubs and stuff...
The pple were really nice...and the're testimonies were like Wow!!! was talking 2 their grp leader Mark, who's an architect...he was telling me more abt the pple grp...
They're pretty cool! all in2 the Arts...Ronald's a photographer apprentice, George is a dancer, Eugene and Moose r designers, Kelvin works @ the Substation (i think)...yah...
Kelvin's wife, Brooke, is frm New Jersy and she's my age (23)...and she's in2 her last trimester of her pregnancy....she's got 4 more weeks b4 she pops....makes me wanna hv a baby 2... =)
The worship thing started @ 9pm and went all the way till 1+ in the morning...there were makan breaks in betw of coz...
Oh! this German gal who's doing DTS with Su Lene was there as well...looks like a model...tall, slim, fantastic voice (sounds like Steven's kinda gal.. =p).. but seriously...her voice is WOAH!!!
Yuen, Tham, Jim Jim and I went 2 Breeko's 4 supper...then went back @ ard 3+....tiring!!...
But it was gd...maybe we shld hv this kind of worship sometime in Heartbeat...wat say u? =)

Staff Devotion 18/09/03
Staff devotion on Thu was really amazing!
P. Rennis started by asking us wat will complete our joy at this pt in our lives...so i jotted down stuff like seeing my family and frens saved, seeing my cousins grow in the Lord, finding a husband (haha!) and seeing tt God is pleased with me...
But in Psalm 16:5-6 (New American Standard version), it says that the Lord is my allotted portion...He is our complete inheritance...
When David was writing this, he was being disinherted coz Sual was out 2 kill him...
1 Sam 26:9 also syas that it is possible tt pple wld wanna take away our share of inheritance...disinheritance (missing pieces in our lives) might b God's way of showing us our true inheritance, which is in God...
God teaches us 2 hunger and thirst 4 Him...
Psalm 16:2 syas that even the capacity 2 enjoy gd things comes frm the Lord...
Luke 7:11-17...the widow was disinherited from her husband and she is now disinherited from her son...the Lord cares abt our disinheritance...He luvs us perfectly....He gave the son back 2 the widow...
Therefore...accept Him as our complete inheritance...
Numbers 18:20 syas that our future is the Lord and our inheritance is the Lord....and it is well with my soul...
Isaiah 49:14-18 is God's promise that He remembers us forever...that we're engraved on His hands....how wonderful is that? =) it is a promise 2 us...
Wow! we're tt impt 2 Him...

went hm in time 2 hv dinner with my family coz i hvn't been spending time with them...
But my dad had 2 irritate me...
coz i happened 2 tell my mum that i'll b getting confirmed on the 28th...and mum asked wat benefits will i gain after i'm confirmed...told her that i'll b a member of the church as well as the Anglican Diocese in S'pore...she nv knew i was Anglican...
So she told my dad who wantd 2 noe wat "Anglican" is in Chinese...told him i didn't noe but will find out and get back 2 him...he was like how come u dunno these things...and then went on saying smthg abt Buddhism...can't rem exactly wat he said...then i was like how the he heck wld i noe u noe! y did he automatically assume that i wld noe! i attend the English svc...y wld i noe what "Anglican" is in Chinese?!
Next he said that in some churches pple look like they're possessed when they're praying...like tiao dang u noe...like they're being possessed by some diety coz they're b crying and jumping ard...he said that sometimes they'll get so outta control that they need pple ard them 2 restrain them...i got really agitated and said that they're not possessed!! not like tiao dang!! wah lao! how can u compare being moved by the Holy Spirit 2 tiao dang??!!
He's attacking wat i believe in and i'm trying 2 defend it...
Was talking 2 P. Ian and he said that there is no need 2 defend God...He's gdness can b seen thru us and out actions...he said b gentle and try 2 c where my dad is coming frm...sigh....it's so tough!
Mum was v gd abt it tho...she's more open than dad...dad id juz trying 2 impose his own ideas on me...
That was b4 the food came....when we started eating things went back 2 normal...
