fotos and more fotos, plus a little tok
a mixture of different pictures of how i spent my past weeks..
went out with mismatch to shop at bugis where we met shumin..i tink its a god given chance for us to meet her so that's one good thing :D
celebrated mark's bday yest with cg..HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!! hahah i tink he was quite shocked and surprised when i turned ard and showed him the bday cake..hahaha totally wasnt expecting it!! that is amazing..lol...
on tues, i tink or was it wed? aiya i forgot..followed dear to the docs before going to bugis to get her cny stuff and den ate nydc with TEA members plus matmat..went to wj's house before the docs cos they only opened at abt 2pm..


this was while waiting for jiehui and daniel to finish discussing their stuff at carls junior on friday night..they tok so long la!! i was so bored so i used daniel's fone to take some narcisstic fotos of myself..


so anyway, had clm this morning with pastor david as our speaker..he's one powerful man!! really amazed at his simple faith and his simplicity while looking at spiritual things..its an amazing balance..on one hand, he really is juz so simple cos watever he does, he has that idea that its for god so juz do lor..on the other hand, he is really very wise and very very strategic in the way he manages the church..caught a glimpse of how wise and tactical he was at doing stuff..
like for example, he was in india and he spoke to these 2 young indian men who converted and they told their dad..ok in india, there isnt as much religious freedom as there is in singapore..so if u venture out from their main religion like hindu or sikh, u are in real deep trouble..not only from frens but even ur closest family members..so their dad asked to meet pastor david, prob to give him a talk on how could u convert my boys..so david arranged to meet this dad at the best restaurant in town and u know why? so that the dad cant shout at him there!!! LOL i was damn amazed at that..
den he ordered the best food, took care of everything, made sure the dad enjoyed his food and when the mood was right he said this - hey uncle, u traveled almost 2 hrs to come to new delhi to meet mi becos u love ur sons rite? well jesus loves u that he came 2000 yrs ago to die on the cross for u! den he continued toking to the dad abt family stuff..saying for so many years,u haf been taking care of ur family, has anyone cared for u the way u cared so much abt them? well jesus does!!
oh and the bestest part..this is WOW..he asked the dad - wat do u tink of all these food? the dad said nice..he asked the dad..if i told u that this dish is made up of oil salt eggs and flour would u know how it tasted like? the dad replied no i wouldnt..david asked den how would u know how the dish taste like? the dad said by tasting it and david said thats the same with jesus! all u haf to do is taste this love that jesus has offered to u and see if its nice..it doesnt matter the religion like hindu or christianity etc..juz taste and see for urself..
im am utterly awed by pastor david chen.
y-hope is gonna make 1000 a history in the near future..sounds like an oxymoron yeah..haha..but yeah i will be so proud of yhope den..how i wish i could stay and achieve even more grounds with the youth..maybe, i ll go help the youth ministry of other countries nxt time..yeah, thats a good idea indeed..
