June holidays have come and gone, Strongholds are being broken. People are getting saved. The world is changing. Lives are changing.
This June, been really really busy. Was sick the entire first week so missed Zone F camp. Second week had BMT and Red Rain outings. Third week the same, getting discipled and graduated from BMT. Discipleship was intense. Really got out of my comfort zone. Inspired by Pastor Joakim's school seminar, caught the fire to go out to make some noise, love people and get them saved! I was convicted. I hadn't been loving people enough. I hadn't left my comfort zone to get people saved. What other point is there to life than to change others and adding to the Kingdom of Heaven. The great commission. Now, going out of my comfort zone, visiting people's houses, loving them so much. Letting the love of God pour out of me.
What this world needs,
is a Savior who will rescue
a Spirit who will lead
a Father who will love them in their time of need
That's what this world needs
Jesus is our Savior
That's what this world needs
A Father arms around you
Thats what this world needs
Who would have thought that when I first stepped into Heart of God Church. That I would be sleeping at 12am and waking up at 5.30am just working. But I am not tired at all.
Isaiah 40:31
but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
I'm running this race with God. And even though it is tiring, I will run and not be faint. I will not burn out, for I lean on God and not on my own power. Living the life out of my comfort zone is so much more fulfilling than living safely in the comfort zone. Even though its easier to live in the comfort zone, it would be boring. Like my life before Christ. Just content with playing football in the Singapore under-12 national team and studying hard. It was a good life but there had to be more. There is more to this world. There is more to life. There is hope. There is a purpose.
Is there hope for every man?
a solid place where we can stand
In this dry and weary land
is there hope for every man?
Is there love that never dies?
Is there peace in troubled times?
Someone help me understand
is there hope for every man?
There is hope for every man?
a solid place where we can stand
In this dry and weary land
There is hope for every man
There is love that never dies
There is peace in troubled times
Can we help them understand
that Jesus is hope for every man.
There is hope, there is love, there is peace, from Jesus. I would never trade my lifestyle for an uncomfortable now.
The Bible was inscribed over a period of two thousand years
in times of war and in days of peace
by kings, fishermen, tax collectors, singers
but marvel that a library so perfectly cohesive
could have been produced by such a diverse crowd
over a period that staggers the imagination
To end this post in a lighter tone, I would like to ask all visitors to tag so that I know who visits this blog, I've been wondering why my hits keep going up. Oh and all the poetic lyrics come from Casting Crowns, I did not write any of them. I would love to have such poetic skill though. But alas, we cant have everything.
