the righteousness thru grace msg is really powerful! i've been SO blessed by it, n i see so many pple coming to noe the joy this truth brings too... this righteousness that is IMPUTED to us APART FROM our works, APART FROM our very nature to sin... this righteousness is the unclouded, undiluted righteousess of JESUS at the Father's right hand! bcos He did a COMPLETE n PERFECT work of REMOVING OUR SINHOOD on the cross, the Father raised Him frm the dead, nt bcos He was His Son, but bcos it is FINISHED! Jesus has qualified us for all the inheritance of Heaven, nt bcos we deserved it, but bcos He CAME FOR US! NOTHING can take us out His hands of blessings!
bcos of Jesus' work, we are now enjoying the fruits of His rest... there is SHALOM peace, nothing missing nothing broken, in knowing n believing His love, His grace, His righteousness for us! knowing that when we rest in Him, He provides for EVERYTHING. He dosen't juz bless us bcos we're in church, He blesses every single area of our lives bcos He's ALL OVER IN LOVE WITH US! looking back to when i first came to new creation alone, n now there're almost 14 of my family members attending the church, it is really God's faithfulness n His goodness to me! i truly believe soon my whole CLAN (haha) will come to the glory of being in His family! i was so encouraged ydae when my mama asked me what was the msg that pastor prince encouraged us to confess everyday (i'm the righteouness of God in Christ!)... n again when my father actually told my sister not to worry abt money, bcos "ur jiejie say the money will come!" HALLELUJAH! i believe my father noes it is nt my words that carry power, but it is my GOD who gives me the power to get wealth!
i'm all set to RECEIVE man! juz flood my life to overflow with Your blessings Lord!
many changes have taken place in care group ever since i joined almost 1.5 yrs ago... like deacon chin says, change is good bcos it signifies growth. indeed, it's so exciting to see cg grow in quantity, n also to see us in it growing frm glory to glory... but there're SO MANY changes, n sometimes i wonder if i can handle the emotional ties with them... even more changes r going to take place in cg, n i'm already missing pple n things which i din tink i wld miss. i rmbr zixin n elicia used to tell me to treasure the times we have as a cg, bcos it's only for a season we're together, to grow together. they also told us to take ownership of this cg, bcos it's the pple in it dat matter, dat pple may come n go but the cg is always there. now i feel like it's gonna be only me left, i'm feeling the impact of those words. but no matter wat, i noe kingdom friendships nv end bcos it is Jesus who maintains us. many opportunities ahead of me in serving in the ministry n in cg, n i'm excited, yet wondering...
it's ok. it's Jesus' work, it's His rest... i'm in His rest... n i'm being blessed.
i've been watching "the block" on discovery travel n living, n i'm inspired to refurbish my room! heh~ i'm like dreaming up sheer sequined curtains, beaded candlelights, traditional rugs and spices to add scent to my room... yup yup... as any of u noe me, i'm like dreaming up "arabian nights" for my room. all the mysterious middle-eastern feel~ maybe it's the bellydancer in me wanting to live out my "dream"... haha. speaking of dat, i miss bellydancing, haven danced in a long while. miss hearing the jangle of coins, n twirling of a veil... i do miss taking lessons wif keti too... i admire her as a dancer so much; she's like so sensual n so expressive! wish i cld dance like her too! heh. well i guess i stopped dancing cos i din feel like it was... "nice" since i'm, u noe... Christian. welll, i actually did tok to my leaders abt it, n dey say it's ok. haha. it's juz me trying to tink wat's right wat's wrong wif me i guess... but Jesus ain't dat strung up. He made me, i'm unique the way i m! so... altho i noe it's kinda weird i like middle-eastern stuff when every other youth in s'pore is into the jap/korean or street culture... juz show me some sequins n i hyperventilate! haha ok exaggerating... but i'm nt gonna try to be like everyone else. like angie said, dat'll only make me second-best, i'm the best of me! hurhur.
yup. this applies for everything else. i'm nt gonna pretend i like certain things juz to fit in anymore. i dun hafta fit in. i dun hafta try so hard to retain friends. some friends i noe, will always be part of my life, even tho i dun see them much. some friends seem to be part of my life for a while, then they juz fall away. it's ok... Jesus is the constant Star in my life. i'm nt like, saying this to convince myself... i tink i've really come to a point where putting my hopes n expectations on pple has proven futile time n again. nt dat i'm shunning pple lah. juz dat i dun get myself down on such stuff anymore, i noe it is Jesus who builds n maintains my relationships. n it is also Jesus who maintains my marriage n love with my life partner... praise Him! i want to be so filled in His abundant agape love!
i am the righteousness of God in Christ!

my gosh. i was very overwhelmed... so overwhelmed... i felt so "wow" juz being able to be around pple like them. it's such a great privillege, such a great honour for me! to hear them share, to hear them express their visions... it's like something that i've been so yearning to be part of, n finally i m part of it! actually i noe it's always been on my heart, but i din dare believe, din dare to take it. now dey're telling me not to be afraid, bcos "the righteous are as bold as a lion"! Lord, could it really be? it's SO different, n it juz makes me anticipate another phase in my life! being able to get to noe HER, was like, WOW! heh. cos i've always admired her, how she's so fun, such an annointed woman-of-God! n we chatted, we shared... i juz want to be in a place where i m able to catch that. there's so much more i'm looking foward to n i want! but it is all by the grace of God. the calling n gifts of God r irrevokable... when the time comes, He gives me the abundance of grace. amen!

there is a peace
there is a rest
that settles here
in Your presence
when Your face is very near
Your love erases every fear
it's the power
of Your presence
it's the strength
of Your hand in mine
it's the glory
of Your greatness
that has the power
to change my life
i tink it has finally dropped into my heart wat having Him as my Abba really means... it means having a loving Father who rejoices with me when i'm happy, n who hugs me n comforts me when i'm down. it is He who lifts me up frm my fears n shame, who gives me hope in the face of my challenges. He fights my battles n has won my victory. He has given me beauty for ashes n annointed me with the oil of gladness. n most of all, He is the one who NEVER EVER condemns me even when i make mistakes, when i foul up... He NEVER EVER leaves me nor forsake me. He always prospers everything i set my hand to. i noe this time, i will noe how to follow His peace. it is His work, it is His rest, it is His miracle. if i perish, i perish. but i noe i won't, bcos if i m willing to let go, God will have to fight for me. n His hands r so much bigger than mine. the best thing is, i noe it is my Abba's good pleasure to bless me with all good things... n even if i fall, He picks me right up n sets me on higher ground.
He hugs me n tells me it's ok to make mistakes, bcos He always loves me. n those who put their hope in Him will never be put to shame. trust Him all the way... nothing is finished until Jesus is glorified!

IT IS FINISHED!
Jesus said it's all been done, not juz He's done... but there is no more 'my part' to be done. God rested on the 7th day, n the 7th day is the first day for Man. n guess wat? the 7th day didn't end! the Bible dosen't mention the 8th day, 16th day or wateva... the Bible didn't mention dat the "morning n evening came, n dat was the 7th day". which means Man was created to enjoy the whole of creation! Man's FIRST DAY is a day of REST, n this REST nv ends! i'm living in His rest... there is nothing for me to do but to rcv His blessings! God didn't rest bcos He was tired, but bcos everything was complete! if there's nothing i can add to creation, there's nothing i can add to redemption! His rest gives me power, n in His rest my Abba blesses me... all i can do now is juz rcv n rcv all of Heaven's blessings!
thank You Abba, it's all been done. it's all been paid, even the fees for the Singles' Camp in June this yr... thank You Abba, that You provide for me, bcos You love me. n i m surrounded with a shield of His abundant favour, i have my leave approved! =D

for whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.
Romans 8:29-30
