This is the 50th post! let's celebrate!!!!!

Yes we've reached the 50th mark! Let's keep this blog alive yea. I'm guilty also of neglecting it but I will make an effort to post stuff here, like now!

This is random but thanks guys for being a great bunch of people :) I think sometimes as humans we focus too much on the bad side of people, or take them for granted when we see them frequently. So we should all, once in a while, take time off to shower each other with love! Imagine right, each of us just take turns to show love fortnightly, that's enough to last us a year! We never know when someone is feeling sad inside, so let's always come on Sunday with a purpose to encourage each other with our stories of thanksgiving.

Therefore encourage one another and build up one another, just as you also are doing. 1 Thess 5:11

But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called "Today," so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. Heb 3:13


Oh yes, and I really really really want to encourage you all to come for Reachlight also cos I've been very blessed by it, and I'm sure you all will too. We've been complaining about Speedlight too long, and people have been praying for almost a decade for a young adults ministry, so let's thank God for hearing the prayers and support the church in this! Anyone wants to make a date with me on the 2nd Nov? :)

Thanks Serene for your post! :) Though I'm supposed to be older/wiser/holier, I'm in no less need of God's grace, and also in no less need of reminders to always go back to God, because He can do such amazing things.

I wanna thank God here for really speaking to me this week. I've always been scared of evangelism, I'm not like Norm who can just talk to a complete stranger about Christ. I think I have a high degree of self-awareness, and this makes it difficult to put aside my feelings and fears to speak to someone about Christ, no holds barred. But recently God has put in my heart burdens for a couple of people close to me (GIRLS), as I've shared a few times I think, and I simply cannot ignore it. So please help me pray that I will have the strength to broach the topic with my friends, and to be a good testimony for Christ, to them. In such times it really makes me realize that I cannot, and will not, be able to do this all without knowing Christ, or understanding His love. And I pray that God will challenge you all in the same way as well! :)

On a last note, I wanna pose this question to you all, and hopefully for everyday of your life as well:
Have you been a Christian today?

Love,
Jess
