+EXCITE.

I'm so excited for this year's MT.

Not because of who's going or how fun it's going to be. This is not a holiday.

But more so at how it's an opportunity to reach out and witness to people about Christ.

It's time for less talk and more action. Going forth with power!

Been looking forward to this for the longest time!

AMAZING.

I'm very sure Nigel Hendroff's the man who thought of and coordinated 90% of Hillsong Creative. He's so open to sharing his knowledge and skills and everything he uses to glorify God. I love it that a gifted person like him's willing to impart his skills to everyone!

He's the man.

Here's to you.

Give Me Jesus.

That's all I want. More than enough liao. tens.

We sang this many years ago in YI. Today the lyrics kept ringing in my head out of the blue and I just had to search for it. I thought it was a hymn but no, it's written by Jeremy Camp and the lyrics are just too apt. It's basically whatever my heart cries out.

In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

When I am alone,
When I am alone,
When I am alone,
Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

When I come to die,
When I come to die,
When I come to die,
Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

Blaise Pascal

"There once was in man a true happiness of which now remain to him only the mark and empty trace, which he in vain tries to fill from all his surroundings, seeking from things absent the help he does not obtain in things present. But these are all inadequate, because the infinite abyss can only be filled by an infinite and immutable object, that is to say, only by God Himself."

One God, One Way.

Not out to blast any other religion but here's to those who've been questioning about the existance of a similar God in other faiths. John Piper here shares on whether the God of the bible is same as the God of Quran.

One of the people I really look up to with this message to those who only preach prosperity. Please watch this. I abhor thee.

Phlegmatically Sanguine

As promised, more pictures! Ok la not alot here cos I haven't bought any memory card for the camera yet. Only could save a few pictures within the in-built memory. Pardon some of the blurry shots cos abit too dark hehehe.

We did a series of personality tests, first DISC then the personality tree aka Choleric, Sanguine, Phlegmatic and Melancholic. Amazingly none of the members were Choleric hehehe! I'm under Phlegmatic but somehow my whole urban life group seems to think I'm a Sanguine instead.

Had a great night sharing and worshipping together, am really excited for the future of our group. Ok enough talk, let me introduce some of the people that came today!

Ravi the Sri Lankan who grew up in Dubai but now works in Australia, Doug the ABC from Perth
