Hi guys! I just hope that for all those that are in JCs are starting to adapt in the pressure cooker atmosphere! And here's wishing all those who are working-HAPPY WORKING.....and earning money! I just wanna share this verse that is close to my heart......Matthew 7:7

Hey guys,
Hope your week has been great so far =) If not then well let's pray it will get better soon haha. Ok I am here to kick back some life into this blog and so have decided to share this small passage from God's minute with you all.

YOUR WORD IS A LAMP TO MY FEET AND A LIGHT
FOR MY PATH.
(PSALMS 119:105 *NIV )

For all the negative things we have to say to
ourselves, God has a positive answer for us!

For,

When You say, "It's impossible".
God says: "ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE".
( LUKE 18:27 )

When You say, "I'm too tired."
God says: "I WILL GIVE YOU REST".
( MATTHEW 11:28-20 )

When You say, "Nobody really loves me".
God says: "I LOVE YOU".
( JOHN 3:16 & JOHN 13:34 )

When You say, "I can't go on."
God says: "MY GRACE IS SUFFICIENT."
( 2 CORIN 12:9 & PSALM 91:15 )

When You say, "I can't figure things out."
God says: "I WILL DIRECT YOUR STEPS."
(PROVERBS 3:5-6 )

When You say, "I can't do it."
God says: "YOU CAN DO ALL THINGS IN ME."
(PHIL 4:13 )

When You say, "It's not worth it."
God says: "IT WILL BE WORTH IT."
( ROMANS 8:28 )

When You say, "I can't forgive myself."
God says: "I FORGIVE YOU."
( I JOHN 1:9 & ROMANS 8:1)

When You say, "I can't manage."
God says: "I WILL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEEDS."
( PHIL 4:19 )

When You say, "I'm afraid."
God says: "I HAVE NOT GIVEN YOU A SPIRIT OF FEAR."
( 2 TIM. 1:7 )

When You say, "I'm always worried and frustrated"..
God says: "CAST ALL YOUR CARES ON ME
( 1 PETER 5:7 )

When You say, "I don't have enough faith."
God says: "I'VE GIVEN EVERYONE A MEASURE OF FAITH."
( ROMANS 12:3 )

When You say, "I'm not smart enough."
God says: "I GIVE YOU WISDOM."
( 1 CORIN 1:30 )

When You say, "I feel all alone."
God says: "I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU."
( HEBREWS 13:5 )

Always remember that; EVERY WORD OF GOD IS FLAWLESS;
HE IS A SHIELD TO THOSE WHO TAKE REFUGE IN HIM.
( PROVERBS 30:5 ) FOR THE WORD OF GOD IS LIVING AND ACTIVE. SHARPER THAN ANY DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD, AMEN. ( HEBREWS 4:12 )


Cool right? Haha yup yup hope that you all have been blessed by this short passage so yah see you guys on sunday yah?

With God's Love,
Evan

Hey guys,

Hope your week has been great so far yah? Haha before I do anything I'll wish Johan happy birthday a few hours in advance yay =)

Okay haha that was random.. Anyway, in case you people have not been reading the news recently, especially today's one, our church has been involved in some controversies because of some stuff that was discussed by Pastor Rony during some testimonies in Miracle Service. Yup things got quite bad that the government was pulled into the picture. So yup firstly, lets spend more time praying for the church yah? Pray that God will be in control and protect us from all things evil.

Secondly, a lot of people had been falling sick recently. I'm the only one from the the cell who is sick-free currently, AMEN to that haha =) The other people from meridian, Rachel, Charlene and Dion have all fallen sick so do pray for them yah?

Lastly, continue praying for the cell yah? Haha I will not elaborate go read Lynn's post. Yup yup =)

1) Church
2) People who are sick
3) Cell

Haha that is the recap of everything I just said so yah do pray and hope to see you people soon! (Should be at Wei Jian's house for those who going next tuesday)

In God's Love,
Evan =)

hey dears,

i dunno how many of u are reading this. but i really feel so detached fm cell all of a sudden.

it seems as if we've spent a lot of time tgt since the start of dec with camp, christmas get-togethers, cell outings and of course, our chalet. in fact, i miss the times we spent at the chalet the most! coz i saw all of u everyday and the times we shared talking ( i mean REAL talk) are really so dearly missed.

i secretly wish that we could have such talks more often, but then again, i dunno how many of u are willing and bold enough to share coz more often than not, we always tend to wait for a good time when in fact, any time spent tgt can be considered a good time to have HTHT, no?

i really hope and pray that these two months of bonding will not go down the drain now that majority of u have started sch. i know the feeling of having new sch, new friends, new teachers, new environment. it's really exciting!! but it'll be so sad and such a pity if this cell ends up back at where we started. it's really my prayer that we will experince a breakthrough in this cell this year.

of course, i dun expect things to change overnight. and i apologise for not being around during the last two surprise bday celebration. thanks wj and rach curly for planning them so well! though i wasnt around, i truly hope that times like this will bring u guys closer.

and even as we're emphasising on coming tgt as a cell, let us also not forget to come tgt as children of our Lord. i believe that it is only when we start to focus on God will we be able to focus on others. just like as our Father loves us, we can, therefore, love the people around us.

i wish we can have another chalet soon but i know it's not possible. then again, we dun need a chalet to have fun right? let us all keep one another in prayer. all of u are really the pillars of this cell and i hope that u are proud to be part of this fam, just like how i'm proud to be ur leader and friend.

thanks for playing such a HUGE role in my life.

lots of love,
lynn

Hi all!

hey dears,

this week is super hectic for me. i have 2 projs due on thu and fri. have been surviving on 4 hrs of sleep everyday and heading to class like a zombie. have a super BIG ulcer that is taking forever to heal (had it since 1 wk ago). proj mates giving probs coz meetings not productive and we got some communication probs. so yes what a fantastic week ):

i feel very unsettled everyday. even times when i rest, doesnt even feel like it's rest coz my mind is like super active even when i close my eyes. so pls keep ur mum in prayer. i can't wait for fri for it to be OVER!!!

anw this sun NO CELL k?? so i proposed the following activities:

1) meet at 1.15pm for Speedlight
2) meet at 1130pm for lunch then head for speedlight
3) meet at 11am for CELL then head for speedlight

i think u guys can discuss on the tshirt during cell. coz i believe it's kinda stagnant for now. we havent found a company coz many dun offer the colour we want. even if they do, it's too ex. so maybe u all wanna discuss that then have fellowship or sth.

tze hern & dion: u two are FULLY in charge of the tshirts k? so if the cell cant make a final decision, u guys got the power to do so (:

sharon: if i have the urge to lead worship in cell this sun, pls go ahead (: u can always play AGAIN when cell starts after CNY (:

AARON: pls discuss w cell when we wanan go ur house for CNY (:

aldrin: pls help to msg everyone with regards to what's the plan on sun k? thank you FREE sms svc!!

evan: pls call jia teck. i hope he's doing fine in sch.

rachelsssssss: pls call tiffy, judy, marissa and jun ling if u can

and for me, i need to contact MR DA WEI soon!!

i will meet u all before speedlight. i'm not serving this sun. we can lunch after that also (:

ok HAPPY schooling, working, slacking, playing, making new friends, adjusting to new sch life, making $$$ and missing me.

love u guys deep deep,
MUMMY!
ok back to proj. zzzzzzz

HOORAY! We have the same number of posts in 2010 as 2005 + 2008 + 2009 number of posts combined. HAHA.

THE BLOG IS HIP & HAPPENING NOW MAN. Please don't let this die down.

A shoutout to those who are in JC now; how's everything going? Hope you've settled down in school, made new friends and begin another phase in your life.

And those going Poly; work hard for those who are working. Earn some money (xD.) and some experience outside in the working world!

(:

Keep praying everyone! (:

AND HAPPY SEXY SEVENTEEN BIRHTDAY DANIEL! (:

When the idea is not right, God says, "No"
No - when the idea is not the best
No - when the idea is absolutely wrong
No - when although it may help you it could create
problems for someone else.

When the time is not right, God says, "Slow"
What a catastrophe it would be
If God answered every prayer at the snap of your fingers.
Do you know what would happen?
God would become your servant, not your master.
Suddenly God would be working for you
Instead of you working for God.

Remember : God's delay is not God's denial
God's timing is perfect
Patience is what we need in prayer

When you are not right, God says, "Grow"
The selfish person must grow in unselfishness
The cautious person must grow in courage
The timid person must grow in confidence
The dominating person must grow in sensitivity
The critical person must grow in tolerance
The negative person must grow in positive attitudes
The pleasure-seeking person must grow in compassion
for suffering people

When everything is all right, God says, "Go"
Then miracles happen
A hopeless alcoholic is set free
A drug addict finds release

A doubter becomes a child in his belief
Diseased tissue responds to treatment, and healing begins
The door to your dream suddenly swings open
And there stands God saying, "Go!"

God is:
1) Comforter
- 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 
4who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort
we ourselves have received from God.

2) Omnipresent
- Psalms 139

¹ O LORD, you have searched me
and you know me.
² You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
³ You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
⁴ Before a word is on my tongue
you know it completely, O LORD.
⁵ You hem me in—behind and before;
you have laid your hand upon me.
⁶ Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.
⁷ Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
⁸ If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
⁹ If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
¹⁰ even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.
¹¹ If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,"
¹² even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

3) Never Changing
- Hebrews 13:8

⁸Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

4) Trust
- Proverbs 3:5-6

⁵ Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
⁶ in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.

5) Refuge
- Psalms 46:1-3

¹ God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
² Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
³ though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.

6) Omnipotent
- Matthew 19:26

²⁶Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

7) Love
- 1 John 4:7-12

⁷Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
⁸Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
⁹This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
¹⁰This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
¹¹Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
¹²No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

Ryson Opens His Gift from Tze Hern on Vimeo.

Ryson celebrated his birthday on the 30 Jan 2010 and my cell group surprised him at his house. We gave him a bobble-head trophy as a gift!

And I really won't mind if u all cont.....er just wanna let u all know that I really treasure every moment with this cell....terima kaseh!

Cell Chalet from Tze Hern on Vimeo.

From the 20-22 January, Daniel rented our a bungalow for the entire cell group to meet up and hang out. We played games and bonded throughout the 3 days, coming out of it as a closer cell group. I only came in at some parts but managed to stay long enough to bond with everyone.

Look out for the cat that scares Wei Jian!

Hallo lighters from lightning! I need ur opinion on the cell chalet...any improvements or anything u feel that will make it better...please inform me..i know it's been a long time but try to recall...just approach me or drop me a msg or anything...terima kaseh

 When troubles find there way into our lives, we can always
count on our Heavenly Father for comfort, strength and
guidance.   For God has said; "CALL UPON ME IN THE
DAY OF TROUBLE; I WILL DELIVER YOU, AND YOU SHALL
GLORIFY ME." Also our Savior Jesus Christ said; "DO NOT
LET YOUR HEARTS BE TROUBLED. TRUST IN GOD; TRUST
ALSO IN ME."  ( PSALMS 50:15 ) & ( JOHN 14:1 )

So, when you go through one of those trying
times, why not ask God to comfort you?   He is waiting
there with open arms to embrace you and to direct your
pathway through any difficulty.  After all with God on your
side who or what can harm you?  For it is written; He who
is in you is greater than he who is in the
World.         ( 1 John 4:4 )

Therefore remember the words of our Savior Jesus
Christ, for He said; "PEACE I LEAVE WITH YOU, MY
PEACE I GIVE TO YOU; NOT AS THE WORLD GIVES
DO I GIVE TO YOU. LET NOT YOUR HEART BE
TROUBLED, NEITHER LET IT BE AFRAID."
                   ( JOHN 14:27 )

So turn your problems over to God, and let him guide your
path, and don't let those troubles cause you another
sleepless night!  For soon you will be saying; "I WILL BOTH
LIE DOWN IN PEACE, AND SLEEP; FOR YOU ALONE,
O LORD, MAKE ME DWELL IN SAFETY."
                    ( PSALMS 4:8 )

Have a Wonderful Day, one that is filled with;
THE PEACE OF GOD, WHICH SURPASSES ALL
UNDERSTANDING, WILL GUARD YOUR HEARTS AND
MINDS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS.  AMEN!              
                 ( PHILIPPIANS  4:7 )

Through Christ - Generation Unleashed

(verse 1)
When the darkness tries
to hide my way
Your word is the light
that guides my faith
I will trust in You (x2)

(verse 2)
When my heart is weak
& I've lost my way
I will lift up my eyes
and choose to say
I will trust in You (x2)

(chorus)
I can do all things through Christ
I can move a mountain if You
Are the strength of my life
I can do all things through Christ
When You are the strength of my life

(verse 3)
In Your presence I find
strength renewed
I find courage to stand
& a hope that is new
I will turst in You (x2)

(bridge)
Whatever trials come my way
I will worship You always
Forever trust in Your unfailing love

Whenever doubt and fear press in
I still hear Your voice within
Forever trust in Your unfailing love


I hope that this song has impacted you as much as it had to me. Always remember that we can do all things through Christ because He is our strength forever and ever. Continue to be a blessing to others.

In God's Love,
Evan

dear God,

i wanna uplift ALL my cell kids unto u. Father they have just received their posting results.
some got what they wanted, others did not.
but Lord i still thank You that all of them are still having such positive attitude!!

During the next few days, Father won't u just INTERVENE and help them with the appeals. i pray Lord, You will grant them the desires of their hearts and the school of their choice. we acknowledge that You are POWERFUL and MIGHTY and that u can CHANGE things and make things HAPPEN.

so i asked Lord, that as some of them summit their appeals, may they continue to have FULL trust in You, wherever You may bring them to.

I pray that You will sent those who are happy with their choices to CONTINUE praying for the others and may they be an ENCOURAGEMENT and source of STRENGTH to their fellow brothers and sisters.

pour out Your love and mercy on them, Jesus. see their hearts, Lord and ANSWER their prayer this i pray.

amen (:

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forevermore.

love,
lynn

Hi everyone
i didnt get what i wanted---Temasek poly.
instead i got into my 4th choice which is Jurong JC science. which kind of caught me off guard and i'm still trying to face the fact that i'm going to go through the whole A level thing, and more importantly, the fact that SCHOOL STARTS TOMORROW FOR ME!)))):
i was just making fun of my going to jc friends yesterday night. sighhhh.
anyway im not sure if everyone's happy or satisfied about their posting, but i have one of those office posters that really encouraged me:

Take one day at a time (right now this one really comforts me)--Matthew 6:34
Remember, all things work together for good.--Romans 8:28
Under no circumstances should you worry.--Philippians 4:6
Start everyday with prayer and thanksgiving--1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
The Lord will never leave you or forsake you;Don't ever forget that! Hebrews 13:5

right now im just praying for recovery from a slight flu so i can go through orientation properly. and also wondering what cca i should join! i was thinking of soccer! or rugby. hahaha any suggestions?(:

Kratos just emailed me back moments ago. They have quoted me the following.

In order to revive the blog, let's have a goal.

From 2005 to 2009, we posted ONLY 129 posts which is very little.

SO OUR GOAL FOR 2010,

let's post more than 129 posts!!! (:

Of course, meaningful things la. Not rubbish.

AHAHA.

START POSTING. START TAGBOARDING. START TWEETERING! (:

Hey all! We will release the password for our Twitter this Sunday so anyone can update it as and when!

Hey! Here's a summary of what we had during lesson in cell today. This might become a regular thing for those who miss cell. If anyone would like to update again for the subsequent weeks, feel free to post!

Hi! Just to let you know, I've already sent out an email to Kratos with details on our shirt. Hopefully they'll reply within the week and we can start collecting payment from you guys next Sunday! Here is a mock up of the shirt.

Yes. Chalet was awesome. And hope that everyone remembered what we shared and prayed for.

EVERYONE WHOSE READING THIS.

Pray for (the forever awesome) Aldrin!!! Haha.

Temasek Junior College has 2 more slots left for DSA for VOLLEYBALL. Pray that he can get in ok! Keep him in your prayers!

SPEEDLIGHT @ KALLANG CAGE TOMORROW! (:

Hey all!

Hey people,
Yup this blog was dead but now it's alive again yay! Yup so after the much anticipated cell chalet, the question is how do we go on from here?

Well, after much discussion (which is really very long), we have re-grouped and re-organised some of the areas of the cell. Hmmm well firstly, Wei Jian and Rachel(curly) have taken over the roles of birthday ICs! Yup yup after so long we are going back into business yay! Next, we have the LIGHTNING newsletter which had kind of died off due to our busy schedules. We have decided to have an annual one instead to round off our activities in one year so look forward to the next one yah? Events planning has mostly been done by our behind-the-scenes Aldrin so what better than have him to retain his job! Our cell fund has also been stagnant over the years so it's time to introduce our new Ministeress of Finance, Rachel(straight). Yup yup so remember to pay up when she comes to collect the cash yah? Last but not least it's time to bring in more people into the worship comm don't yah think so? Yup! Dion, Tiffany and Sharon will be stepping up to lead worship in cell so look forward to that!

We had a hearts to hearts talk on the last night of the chalet to the early hours of the morning and I believe that is a good start to many better things to come. Let us also be not only bonded as a cell but also be one that is God-centered in everything we do be it just playing games or having fellowship or lunch yah? God said in His Word that if we seek him with all of our heart we will find Him so let us continue to keep praying and keep seeking Him be it in times when you are in joy or sorrow. And lastly I believe that with this new found transparency with each other we can do greater things for God yah?

Yup yup I think I have said all I wanted to. Just wanna leave you all with one verse:
Proverbs 3:5-6 (New International Version)

5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;

6 in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.


In God's Love,
Evan =)
