pop lo

Owing to the Grace of God, I finally pop-ed.

Throughout this 13 weeks. I have learnt so much more.
Truly, the Bible has taught us to be wise as serpents but as gentle as doves.

This is really the verse that carried me throughout the 13 weeks.
Many times, I did stupid things but God really brought me out of the fire because of the wisdom He gave.

4 types of ppl can be found (Christians included)

1 Wise as Serpents and not gentle like a dove.
This ppl are the scariest. They are the type that what the Chinese calls as 心机.
They can be your best friend for now, but turn ur back and you find a knife in your back.

2. Not as wise as a serpent but gentle as a dove.
They are great ppl to hang out with. They are what we always feel that they are very pure.
But never will they have a powerful impact in many things. And they often look clueless.
But this are the ppl whose hearts will always be open for God to touch them and change their lives. Give them the wisdom that they need.

3. NOT wise, NOT gentle.
Hallelujah.. They are the typical ah beng figures. Usually they are the loudmouth ones.

(The quotation, "As empty vessels make the loudest sound, so they that have the least wit are the greatest blabbers," is from the Greek philosopher Plato.)

They will always boast of their affiliations with this group and that group.. BUT they are usually the foot soldiers that gets exploited.

4. Matthew 10:16 (BBE)

See, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Be then as wise as snakes, and as gentle as doves

This is the verse that reminds me of what to do. With this, we will be more like Jesus. This is how He cared for the multitudes, how He even rebuke the pharisees. This is the Jesus' way.

ptp

Amen.. This Sunday marks the 3rd week of my NS life and man,
this 2 weeks felt long yet short at the same time.
I know that I'm not as fit as most ppl and the physical training phase is really killing me.
Ran for more than 10km in 2 days, its really no joke.

Many times while doing push-ups or crunches,
I will look up to the sky and cry out to God in pain.
And man, really need God more than ever.

I was telling Him one day while doing push-ups, "God, strengthen me! I need You."
But He just replied, and I sensed a smile from Him, "Don't worry son, My grace is more than enough for you."

Thru my deepest valley and over my highest mountain
My God, my Lord, You are always there



Nothing is ever too small, or too big in Your sight
You shape all things with Your hands of love



Even as Your sheep strays away from Your flock
Your Staff and Rod guides me back to Your side



How can I ever thank You
My Savior, My Salvation
My Healer, My Comforter
My Lord, My God
My Jesus

SCDF

I'm going to NS soon.
Its next Tuesday (7th July).
Excited, yet apprehensive.
Felt ready for the challenge, yet uncertain of what lies ahead.
Going to Jalan Bahar Camp for Singapore Civil Defense Force.
Should I go for the Firefighter, paramedic or other vocations??


What Lies ahead? I don't know.
But one thing I know,

“ For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD.
“ For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways,
And My thoughts than your thoughts."
-Is 55:8-9

harden

Why God? Why??

Why are ppl with wrong theology being selected time and time again,
and those with a slightly 'sounded' Theology gets placed at the sidelines?

Why do a flaky person gets away with causing a disturbance in cell group meetings gets away with things but a intuition, impression and vision from someone with a good track record is being dismissed as flaky?

Why can't someone speak to members with a proven bible study record, proven growth and sound doctrine
but someone who has a knack of pulling members aside to 'talk' to them abt spiritual stuff even though what he is teaching is doubtful able to do that?

Why does a man with a good heart has to go through all these?
I think the same man is no longer ard. I think he has decided that
He is a stupid guy who takes a bloody long time to realised that in this world, there is no such thing as a 'WE' but its each for his own in this world.
I think he has just hardened his heart.
He will not drop another tear for someone.

New Songs

Recently I just felt new songs coming out from my spirit. Didn't really write them down. But it just feels beautiful. New songs, New Anointing.

Something that poh said last week shook me.
Every Revival Carries a New Sound.

City Harvest Church carries a different sound.
Bedok North carried a different sound.
What's your new sound?
