You Are My Hero - Dennis Jernigan

I've seen you stand alone and face the fight
When others laid their weapons down
And headed for home
I've seen you face the fire and come out shining like gold,
And I want you to know...

I've seen you lay visions down for someone else
And give your life as a sacrifice, no fanfare around
I've watched you weather storms that would have left others drowned,
And this is what I've found:

You are my hero, my knight in shining armor
A warrior of God's grace, standing alone faithfully
You are my hero, a light that pierces darkness
With love that's not afraid to fight for someone like me,
Encouraging me to stand firm and free!
You are my hero
You are my hero

I've seen you look down the road and see beyond
The miles and head for truth in faith while bearing a load
I've heard your anguished cries for grace and watched joy unfold,
And I want you to know:

I've seen you face death with a deep burning faith
That stirs up the passion in me!
Your heart, like a fire, abounding in grace,
A beacon helping others to see; help set me free


A song dedicated to our beloved Pst Kong on his birthday..it describes him so aptly that I thought it's written for him!

Thanks Pst for being such an inspiration!

A Pure Heart - my prayer

A good 'o song stuck in my heart since I came back from Kuching...

纯洁的心
这是我渴慕
一颗紧跟随着你的心

隐藏你的话语
好让罪不可进入
永远让你来掌管
一颗专注的心
一颗怜悯的心
使你得着喜悦
让这馨香的敬拜
直升到你面前

Stressed, tired, confused, upset,...whatever I am feeling...God help me to have the pure heart that pleases You...

Xtreme Games @ Kuching - thank God for the miracle!!


Thank God for the Xtreme Games which went on smoothly during the Kuching trip..It's really by God's grace that it can happen successfully!

Miracle #1
It has been raining the past few days from 4+pm...without fail...even on the day before our event...on the day of Xtreme Games, the dark clouds gathered everywhere except where our games were held!! Really by the grace of God! The very next day, at 4+pm, it rained again! It's really the hand of God upon us...THANK YOU GOD!

Miracle #2
I was having sore throat and losing my voice the day before the event..on that day itself, I was having running nose in the morning...just before the games, right after the morning session, my throat was totally alright and I managed to lead through the games! Thank God again!!

Indeed, God's grace is sufficient for us!

BACK FROM KUCHING! - meow!

Ok...that was lame I know..haha..in case you don't know.."Kuching" means "cat" in Malay..;p Anyway I'm back from Kuching mission trip! Together with the wonderful, beautiful, awesome, powerful team below...

Highlighting the creative and dedicated singers & musicians...(Ain't our Pst Zhuang super cool and stylish with the electric guitar?) and the young & pretty, yet mature and "zai" interpretor..Min Rui! *claps*

Having fun as we work together with the vibrant and energetic team from CHC (Kuching)! The trip was really awesome and just as they kept thanking us for impacting them, I think I am just as impacted and inspired.

Right at the first session on the first day, I was already very touched by this uncle...judging by his appearance, he shld be at least in his 70s? & he actually went forward, lifted both his hands to respond to the altar call to be more on fire & passionate in serving God, finishing our race for God. After the laying of hands, he returned to his seat with watery eyes..I was really moved...If this uncle, at his age, wanna b more on fire for God, how much more excited shld I be!

On the last day, I found out also that uncle was the one who brought Sonia, one of the youth leaders to church! Uncle must have lived an exciting life for God! I pray God, that You'll bless uncle tremendously!





Also, thank God for the dear leaders from Kuching... Jinzhu 传道 for arranging for ALL our transportation... really not easy to always ensure there is a car to fetch 18 of us from 2 different hotels + 1 apartment to the church and back...oh and not forgetting to bring us for meals... all thanks to this powerful and anointed woman and the team of youth leaders!

Guorong, who is also a professional makeup artist in the church, only 19 years old! Together with his brother Daniel (the church drummer @ 15 years old) and his sis Catherine!

Avin and his BIG & comfy car!











Not forgetting the powerful and all-rounder Pst Kelvin!! He is super solid...fetch the children to children church, lead children church service, send them back..then fetch the youths for youth service, preach in youth service and send them back home..the next day he will be leading prayer meeting and praise and worship for main church service... ask him about sound crew, he can do it, video cam, he can do it...no wonder God is using him greatly!!



...and THE MAN behind the great team from Kuching...PST GEORGE!! Praying and believing to see the 1,000 breakthrough!! 加油加油加油!!




Thank God for the great trip...=) Signing off...
