Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

Ephraim, Yi Qin, Qin-Qin, Ben-ben. That's ME! God have given me an interesting personality. I'm a sanguine, in another word, an extrovert. I love to be around people. Some people accused that i'm lame. Well, i do find myself guilty, sometimes. Of course, at times, you will find me in very deep thoughts. I'm created to be thinker too.
Sometimes i think too much and can be rather emotions-driven. Curious about my love life? Well, the love of my life is God! I love gorry, bloody and gruesome movies and thrillers, such as SAW 1,2,3 ; Mindhunter; When a stranger calls etc. Jazz musics are pleasing to my ears. Buildiing a strong and biblical guys group to win the world is my vision!

Throughout these 3 years of my life in yhope, i have had many many many sheep. I have seen God's fingerprint on every single one of their lives. How some of them grew from a super rebellious sheep to a submissive one. How some of them bite me so many times till i almost die! haha. As i looked back at their lives, i can only stand in awe! Awed at God's fav hobby- life-transformation! Weak, proud, prideful, rebellious pple becoming man of God that impact others' lives!

Derrick. One of my closest sheep. Went through a lot of things with me. Thank God for you, not just as my sheep, but as a true friend. Thanks.
Chuan Jie (on the right). He taught me one of the hardest lesson of love- tough love. Persevered for more than half a year. I know that one day.... ONE DAY... he will come back to Him! thanks for being in my life. You taught me how to truly love someone. Thanks.
Nicholas. Perhaps one of my longest sheep? One year plus? haha. He taught me what does it mean to be humble. Many times he would feedback to me. Though painful, but aptly. One very submissive sheep. Though he have his own views, but he will submit to the leader's authority. He taught me many precious lesson bout love too! Thanks for adding colours into my life! For i know that there's always someone below me in the food chain! heez...
Aloysius. The sheep and a friend that i have known since Pri 5, 7 years le. BUT... i spelled his name wrongly as 'Aloysious' haha! I truly say that i went through much with him. Those times when we had to solve certain misunderstandings and miscommunication. Those times that i keep nagging about the area of faithfulness. One sheep that is truly submissive. Though keep 'suan-ing' me, rather sweet as well! haha! Thanks for being in my life to sour up my life and teach me many people-skills. Thanks
Benjamin. Came church for long long time. But only responded after O levels. =x One of my closer sheep as well! One sheep that never fails to make me laugh! hahahaha =P He's one person that is very child-liked, but not childish haha. Always obey without questioning much. A very trusting friend indeed. Feel very comfortable to just talk to! Dun look at his 'innocent' look k?! HE's MAD!!!!! hahaha. Anyway, though he seems quiet, he's one of the few people that truly possess strong people-skills! Thanks for adding laughters and fun into my life! You are one true friend indeed! Thanks.
Ben. Aka Pradya. heez. A thai that came to spore last year Oct. Went through much ups-and-downs with him. I believe he's the sheep that exp God the most! This is due to his Christian family background. Healings and miracles- he exp before! Thanks for coming into my livf. You taught me what is 'extra-mile' love! Thanks.
Brendon Koh. Came in sec 1, left in sec 2, returns in sec 3. Interesting ar? haha. One sheep that taught me 'Love is patient'. Also, one sheep that showed life-transformation in camp! Saw how he grow and change. He's a very teachable sheep as well, though he dun look like one! hahax. Thanks for being in my life to 'train' me and teach me many many precious leadership lessons! Thanks.
To end off the post.... let me show you this very INTERESTING picture. Taken on Suntec rooftop. Maybe they can consider us to model there! heeezzz.....

keep on keeping on!
-2:15 AM
yup yup yup. almost 2 weeks since i last posted. haha.
Anyway, i was just looking at one of my ex-sheep's blog. It really brought back a lot of memories. He was indeed one of my closest sheep and most experienced one. And as i just sat down in front of my desk, 3 years of memories flooded my mind, and names after names were resounding in my mind.... derrick, jeremy, delwin, chuan jie, ye hui, kevin, jonathan, alvin, di qiang... and many others....... .... ....
Many of them were people who have left deep footprints in my journey of life. Most of them i have met them up before after they left the church, and actually told me that they were contended with their present lives. But every time when i look into their eyes-the windows to their souls, it tells me otherwise.
Is following God hard?
YES.
But you will never get lost.
Is following God stress?
YES.
But you will never stressed out!
Christianity has never been a bed of roses. In fact, there were many testings that i had gone through while holding on so tightly! BUT, no matter how tough it gets, i'll not give up!
Last thurs, the ULs had bbq at elias green! yeah! but i went swimming and i sat down at this place underneath the 'waterfall'. i was really refreshing to have the water running through your body and you think through stuffs! I was just spending time with God whne He suddenly showed me pics of limestones.ANd i was reminded of the whole process of weathering of limestones!
I have seen a lot of freaking nice limestone in many shows. The beauty of it was mesmerising man! But the truth is that it was not formed just like that! It was after millions and millions of years of erosions by rains and rivers, and intensive pressure being exerted onto them. And finally, pieces and pieces of beautiful limestones were formed.
In the same way, there's how how life will be! God's intention for us is to be perfect. But he need certain ugly parts of our lives to be eroded off, and sufficient pressure are required ot be exerted onto us so that we will not be out of shape! All this hardwork will pay off one day, when we are finally perfect in His sight! Yeah!
(supposed to be posted on sunday heeeezzz.... =P)

FOP@ Rc!!! =P
-12:18 AM
Today, 3 August, was a very memorable day for my cg! We (me, brendon, aloy, alfon, glen, prana) had FOP in rc while the rest are having it in Spore Indoor Stadium haha!!! In the afternoon, we brought brian and kai jiunn over to rc to play some board games. We played Risk- which i lose till like mad sia!!!! The rest all had at least 20 troops....... but me....... not more than 7 troops!!!!!!!! ARRGGGHH!!!! nvm! my first time! hahaha..
So after they went home, we just worship God. We had a really great time of meeting God and worshiping him! We arrived at the conclusion that we dun have to go to big big concert to experience God, but as long as my heart expects, no matter where we worship, we can still meet God!
After worshiping, we just started singing all different kinds of p&w songs! Most of them were simply out of tune, but there were a few that we sang in tune k?! haha. (Are guys really prone to out-of-tune? hmm.... should go and research on it. =) anyway, we just keep singing and singing and singing... and it was REALLY FUN!!!!! All of us enjoyed ourselves though it was just singing songs after songs! Brendon was so convicted that every year 3 august EastD1 will have our own FOP in RC!!!! hahaha funny sia! FOP in rc... u shld try it man! hahaha. Cya! =)
