It has been a pretty long time since I blog. Maybe about 2 weeks? My flesh has been physically tired due to work, and there will be more to come for the next 2 - 3 weeks. This is due to more work load that is coming up, and I will also be working on National Day. Well, I am pretty happy because firstly there's no service on that day and it won't affect my church timing and my pay is double! Haha..
I have decided to let go on certain areas that I am struggling for a long time. There would be times when I face temptations, but I don't wish to hurt God's feeling anymore. He has been so good to me, so good. . . I can't depend on my own strength to have a complete breakthrough, and I want to cling on His strength. There might be times when I go through the cycle again, but I want to run to Him even more, because there's no one else above God to seek the source from. (I pray that this will be crave in my heart and my mind always)
Service was really good. I really need to repent because I . . . . (Si Hui will know). During Prayer Meeting, I apologise to God and I asked for His forgiveness. I pray for a word that will come in season that will really touch my heart, and so it did. =) Pastor Derek gave an altar call for those who feel weary, and I went forward with Louisa. I can really feel God's touch when one of the Pastor lay hands on me, either Pastor Tan or Pastor Aries. When I fall onto the ground, my face was hot, but I don't know why. When I fall onto the ground, my shirt was lifted up and thus my stomach was being EXPOSED! Not totally but about 1/4 of it. I was really embrassed and I don't know how should I react. Thankfully the ushers or the security cover it with a towel. (I always thought that is only meant for sisters!) Maybe I am the first brother in the whole CHC history to use it. O_O
W421 is experiencing a growth. Our total membership have hit above 15 and it was really a good sign for more growth. Wei Jian brought a new frenz, Bernard, for service today, and he is only sec 1. Quite a cute but playful boy. Hahaa.. We went over to Terminal 3 for a time of fellowship. Was quite glad to have Kelvin back with us and he look really different! It's really not easy for him as he was in the enhanced batch, so everything was like very rush for him. Kelvin, stay strong k? Will keep you in prayers. =)
CG will change back to Friday as there's no house available to use on Sunday, thus, it's back to Friday CG again and I'm glad that this arrangement is make as I can continue to serve at JW again. I am really happy to serve over there because I felt that I grow together with the service. From the starting week that I serve in JW, the Powerhouse section was not really filled. Slowly, it kept on adding people, and 2 weeks ago, it was really jam pack all the way to the back! It's just an ordinary service, no special speakers! It's really a joy to see Service 4 growing although I am not anchor in that service, but it's a sign that hitting 30,000 is happening real soon.
Having a outreach later on at Holland V. Pray that frenzs will be really impacted by the fellowshipping of the saints, and members will greatly enjoy the fun! Good night! =)

:: Updates ::
Wednesday
Work starts! Did I mentioned that I am working at SP Services? I am currently working as a backroom admin and I am processing customers request on termination of the utilities services, such as people moving out of the unit or offices, etc. It quite a good working environment as I love office work, and the 8 - 5 office jobs. Although my interest is very much in F & B, but I don't like to sacrifice my weekends. Weekends are meant for church and my rest time. =)
Thursday
Second day of work. It was good to be attach around to various department. Quite a good experience as I get to know more about the company. They have their own food court too, and I am amazed that the prices are cheap! In Orchard area where can find food cheap as the normal coffee shop at our HDB estate? Thank God for such surprises! I had a Xiao Wan Mian as my lunch and it only cost $3! Haha.. The soup base is really delicious and the noodles portion are quite generous as well. Haha..
Went over to Suntec later for Prayer Meeting. Walk from Orchard to there. Since I knock off at 6p.m and it only start at 7.30p.m, why not I take my own sweet time to go there instead of taking MRT? Haha.. Save $$$, and it's also a good form of exercise. (You will see that it's really a good form of exercise as I explain further)
From Somerset, I walk and walk. Past by our affiliated church, Heart of God Church. Walk past Dhoby Ghaut MRT, walked past SMU, etc. To save money, I decided to go to the "Four Horse Road" (Direct Translation from chinese) market to have a light dinner. To my dismay, it is close for upgrading. Went over to the temporary set up market, it's still not open yet. Walk for so long, and to find out that. No choice but to go to somewhere and eat, so I settle my stomach with one $2 double cheese burger at the Bugis McDonald's. Meet my budget. =P
Well, so it was yet another long walk from Bugis to Suntec City, but I don't mind. As long as I can find my way there, even though I have to climb up several mountains, I will still go. Haha.. =P I just love our church office. It was just so good to be there, especially when we pray together, and I could really feel God's presence when we pray, and it's so good. Haha..
Friday
Another day that I am looking forward to. Start to get a hands on experience and it was good. =) My mentor was quite a nice and patient guy in teaching me. The other staff who is doing the same job as me are quite friendly people too, and I really thank God for such wonderful people. Need more time to get to know them more as I am the person who don't really open up to people. So, hopefully by end of Sep I can get to know them even better, not just by their names.
Went to CG after that. Had a quick dinner at Sharon's house downstairs. Thank God for another $2 meal. All target meet. Haha.. CG was good as Sharon talks about relationships. Hmm... Well, sometimes, we got to learn to handle our emotions well even when others will mistreat us, we got to be honest with our feelings, and not try to hit it. Eventually, your hurts will come out one day, and that day might be too late le.
Saturday
Work till 1p.m and then head down to PS to get presents for Kelvin and Hui Shan. Bought a cake from Secret Recipe and I think that it could be quite delicious. Haha.. Had a hard time searching for cards as some wordings are not so nice one. After some time of searching, manage to find something which is ok. The cards are quite $$$. Prices shall not be reveal here as Kel and Shan might read. Haha.. Anyway, there's a cute winnie the pooh that caught my attention with a red colour specs. I fall in love with it when I saw that, and I guess that it might be a good present for Shan, so I bought that too.
Went to the John Little Mega Expo sale after that. Meet up with Aaron and Yan Qiu to go shop around. The prices that are still ok. Bought myself a grey colour office wear which cost $14. Walk around the hall till legs are aching. Same comments go for Aaron and Yan Qiu too.
Service was wonderful with Rev Mike Connell. He is such a Fatherly person and I really like the way he laugh. It's just so loving. =) Many people are set free in the service and it was good. We celebrate Hui Shan's birthday after that and I am glad that she likes the Pooh Bear. So comparable with her when she put the small little cute bear beside her. Hahaha.. Ops.. We also appreciate Kel as he will not be around for 2 weeks, hope that he can really be strong in NS. Jia You Kelvin!
Fellowship at Bedok after that. Food was nice and I order myself a Mee Pok. Great time eating with the brothers in the same table. =) Glad to have Glenn joining us for dinner as well. Jia You for your studies Glenn Kong Kong!

:: Tuesday ::
Financial Blessings have come to past!!
On Monday, which is yesterday, my dad bless me with $50.
On Tuesday, which is today, the government bless me with $200.
On Wednesday, which is tomorrow, will I get a $800 blessings? Haha..
Really thank God for His provision throughout this dry season of mine. It's really a miracle for me that I am able to have financial blessings when things seems impossible to me. Where would the money come from?
On top of that, I have been selected to work! I will be starting work tomorrow, and I have to report at 8.45a.m. Haha.. The job payment system also works in a very good way, which means I will get paid 2 times per month, but it will take another week to process. Anyway, what more can I asked for? God is really a good God. =)
I just signed up for MySavings Account through POSB. I think that this would be a good way to help me to save money. I "pledge" to save $50 every month and it will be deducted on the 25th of a new month. It's really pathetic to see my current bank account fall less than $500, which is suppose to be the amount inside or $2 will be deducted.
I will also be starting to have a personal book of my expenses for every month starting July. Every dollar and every cents, I will pay attention to it. This is a good way to keep track where my money go, and in which area I should cut down my expenses. It will mainly be tithe, handphone bills, transportation allowance, food, and some miscellaneous items such as refreshments for CG, stationery, etc.
Hopefully, through all this steps, I can see a financial breakthroughs in my life. =)
