I would like to share this song to all of us. Is very important to know the Word of God, some lyrics maybe nicely written, but it might not be biblical. We have to be very careful, need to know the Word of God well, by reading and seeking Him; else, we will be misled. This song is really very meaningful. love it! eNjoY ya!! Be blessed.

Blessed new year, people!!
I just returned from my church annual event - "Watch Night" service. Man.. This is really awesome!! Every year, members in church - from the young to the old, are given a chance to thank God, and to declare God's wonderful works in their lives, how life has transformed, how sickness has been healed, salvation took place, promotions, and blessings.. blessings .. and many blessings has poured in the church members lives. Glory to God!!
I strongly believed that there are many more great and powerful testimonies that has not shared, perhaps of time constraint, or could be shyness. Well, nevertheless, there is a season in everything.. maybe next time huh? =)
Ps Terence shared, "Some of our testimonies maybe still in the process, in the making.. some testimonies don't happened overnight, it could be years of praying.. seeking God.. but we must believe; believe that God will pull us through.. through it all.. we serve a God who will never fails."
I cried.
Those words just pierced through my heart, right there, i know.. God is speaking to me, He is still working in my life, He is telling me to trust Him..
.. and i am going to trust Him that He will bring me a higher height, a breakthrough in this brand new year of 2008, He is going to do greater things in me... that He has planned ahead for me to fulfill. To have faith in Him!
As you well know, we are getting closer to my birthday. Every year there is a celebration in my honor and I think that this year the celebration will be repeated.
During this time there are many people shopping for gifts, there are many radio announcements, TV commercials, and in every part of the world everyone is talking that my birthday is getting closer and closer. It is really very nice to know, that at least once a year, some people think of me. As you know, the celebration of my birthday began many years ago. At first people seemed to understand and be thankful of all that I did for them, but in these times, no one seems to know the reason for the celebration.
Family and friends get together and have a lot of fun, but they don't know the meaning of the celebration. I remember that last year there was a great feast in my honor. The dinner table was full of delicious foods, pastries, fruits, assorted nuts and chocolates. The decorations were exquisite and there were many, many beautifully wrapped gifts.
But, do you want to know something? I wasn't invited.
I was the guest of honor and they didn't remember to send me an invitation.
The party was for me, but when that great day came, I was left outside, they closed the door in my face .. and I wanted to be with them and share their table. In truth, that didn't surprise me because in the last few years all close their doors to me. Since I wasn't invited, I decided to enter the party without making any noise. I went in and stood in a corner.
They were all drinking; there were some who were drunk and telling jokes and laughing at everything. They were having a grand time. To top it all, this big fat man all dressed in red wearing a long white beard entered the room yelling Ho-Ho-Ho! He seemed drunk. He sat on the sofa and all the children ran to him, saying:
'Santa Claus, Santa Claus'
as if the party were in his honor!
At midnight all the people began to hug each other; I extended my arms waiting for someone to hug me and do you know no-one hugged me.
Suddenly they all began to share gifts. They opened them one by one with great expectation. When all had been opened, I looked to see if, maybe, there was one for me. What would you feel if on your birthday everybody shared gifts and you did not get one?
I then understood that I was unwanted at that party and quietly left. Every year it gets worse. People only remember the gifts, the parties, to eat and drink, and nobody remembers me.
I would like this Christmas that you allow me to enter into your life.
I would like that you recognize the fact that almost two thousand years ago I came to this world to give my life for you, on the cross, to save you.
Today, I only want that you believe this with all your heart. I want to share something with you. As many didn't invite me to their party, I will have my own celebration, a grandiose party
that no one has ever imagined, a spectacular party. I'm still making the final arrangements..
Today I am sending out many invitations and there is an invitation for you. I want to know if you wish to attend and I will make a reservation for you and write your name with golden letters in my great guest book.
Only those on the guest list will be invited to the party.
Those who don't answer the invite, will be left outside. Be prepared because when all is ready you will be part of my great party.
See you soon. I Love you!
Jesus
Isaiah 60
19 The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.
20 Your sun will never set again, and your moon will wane no more; the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your days of sorrow will end.
I am bringing you to a new place.
Hold onto Me.
Along the way you may stumble,
but get up.
Don't withdraw,
but walk with Me.
Learn intimacy.
Enjoy the companionship.
I will not fail.
Lean closer to me,
so you might hear My direction.
I am bringing you to the point where only I matter.
There are opportunities each day to pour yourself out.
Be emptied of self.
There is an invitation to come nearer;
to sit in my presense.
Hold onto Me as you ascend up into My mountain.
You.
in my heart.
make me smile.
with a thankful heart.
i rejoice.
feeling loved.
all i want is to praise and worship,
to please and to love You..
forever...
"To shine like a star.. and burning like a sun" - for You.

It just spelled - "UNITY" in us .. and in fact; white means pure, all of us really look great. We stands out, as we can be spotted easily, ( esp. with roses on the head) haha .. Pastor Chin even thought he was in heaven when he walked in .. with all the "angels" greeting him, the gorgeous and classic setting, .. PERFECT!! it's like heaven on earth! .. that's the spirit of unity, love is in the place! seems like am promoting the girls than the event itself .. oh oh!
Wow! it's such a joy in serving the Lord .. love you gals.

Have you ever wonder what is it like to be a Christian? Is it hard? Are we struggling to be a Christian - pleasing God, and sometimes pleasing men?
Are we trying to make every effort to live our life that what God wants us to do? To serve in church, to go for life group, not to curse, not to swear, trying to be the best you can be?
Life is like a roller coaster huh?!
Just two weeks, I have encountered big time challenges, one of the lowest moments in my life. i felt so discouraged, disappointed, stressed, as if the whole world is against me; i have no one to turn to.. the only one who is there for me.. none other than God Himself.
I question Him : "Why is it so difficult to be Your child, oh Father, why is it so tough to be a Christian? I can never be able to meet the expectation that men set for me, it's so unfair, why am i not being treated the way it should be ..... it seems like i will never going to make it.. just wanna give up.. oh Lord.. i can't take it.. "
i found myself crying like a baby to my Daddy God.. crying my heart to Him..
After a hot shower, i continue to dwell in His presence; listening to worship songs.. and during the stillness of the night, i heard a soft tender voice..
