A computer manual!

Believe it or not, reading a computer manual can save the day.

Guess it's not that useless after all.

Today, A Mushroom

I wonder what's behind the mushroom ;P

P.S. Thank youuuuuuu! =)

Worship Leading VS. Performing

I found this video quite helpful. Hope you do too! =)

I have a tower and you don't

HAH!

It's in KL by the way.

With Hearts As One!

It's the 28th! Yes, the title of this post is taken from the ever so amazing Hillsong United album. What does it have to do with this post? READ ONNNN.

We hear many stories relating to poverty in poorer countries, how we should reach out to them and bring God's love to them. First things first, get your heart and mind right! How are we (yes, WE, not just you or me alone) supposed to do so when we ourselves ignore the big man up there? You tell me.

For many weeks, maybe months, worship through the youth ministries I serve in church doesn't really end up being worship at all. Not pointing fingers or anything. At the same time, I'm thankful for those who have led the rest into worship whole heartedly. Worship is more than just singing songs and going through a chord sheet. Yes, this must be reminded to ourselves ALL THE TIME. Only when everyone's heart is set right, will we be able to make change.

2 weeks ago, I was given the opportunity to lead a worship session this week. Chose some fairly uncommon songs because the meaning of the songs meant a lot to me. I had an urge. An urge to bring and show and remind everyone else why it is we worship the lord! Throughout this process, He really tested me to see how badly I wanted to do this. First off, I had a really small worship team... like.... REALLY small. Secondly, despite the fact there were only 3 of us, we couldn't have an advance practice. So, the plan was to meet at church around 7.30am to practice (Before the days activities took place). Retardedly, I overslept.... =.= Then again, I somehow managed to wake up eventually out of nowhere.

I truly must say, I began to worry. Thus, some quiet time needed to be spent. Felt much better after that. I was reminded of the devotions I had gone through throughout the week, the story relating to David & Goliath (on how David had such strong faith for a little guy, and that caused him to be victorious and protected by God). Shared this and a few other things with the team.

Ever wonder why we worship God with songs?

Cause the Bible said so! =) ~Psalm 100:2

Because you did not serve the Lord your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things, therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the Lord will send against you, in hunger and thirst, in nakedness, and lacking everything. And he will put a yoke of iron on your neck until he has destroyed you.

- Deuteronomy 28:47-48 -

As for the above passage, it's a bit scary, but yes, this is why we should worship the Lord with joy and happiness of our heart and not just do it for the sake of doing it!

Carrying on, attended the "Youth Adore 2010" concert. Mmmmm... shan't say much about it. If you really wanna know then ask me personally =) Things for sure are, Drummer For Christ were AWESOME! One of the members really enjoys drumming so much that he smiles while playing the entire beat.

Custom made Drummer For Christ drum sticks!

(Not mine though)

Worship was passionate. The musicians did know their instruments well, but that's beside the point. The way I felt while worshiping,.... haven't felt like that in a long time. By faith, they sang "Look To You", "From The Inside Out" and "Came To My Rescue" (3 of which I've been listening to quite often on my iPod). The songs were obviously to my preference, but the best thing was that I started to praise Him with my all. Singing my lungs out, not caring if I would lose my voice. L-O-V-E =)

So yeah. I guess I had an adventure this Saturday.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED EDWIN. ;P

Sometimes I wish I could just blog from my mind because by the time I actually sit down and open blogger, I forget everything I wanted to say =.= Mmmmmm... I'm sure I wanted to write about something else but guess it slipped my mind....... Oh well.

The above prayer relates to a song I sang earlier today;

"To Know Your Name" Go listen to it.

P.S. Edwin is a bad influence & going to KL is terrible. Right Edwin? lol

It's called the struggle of life

Consume me from the inside out, Lord...

Yet another month is about to pass. I think i actually have the fear of growing old. The thought of where am I heading always flows through my mind. I've got a few things set but THE BIG PICTURE is yet to be revealed even to myself. This world is too full of itself sometimes I think. Finding it hard to stay on my walk with Him. (Me and my troubled mind.... Hah.)

Few things I've been wanting to post up here; exams are over. That's a relief. Stupid homework checking is here (Oh nooooo!). It's when everyone rushes to complete the ridiculous amount of work given by the teachers just to satisfy the people on top of them =.=

Am currently on a 40 days prayer and fast! No lunch and facebook for me :O I seriously hope I don't get any thinner. Am grateful to have company while I fast in school, as well as the many people who've decided to fast from facebook as well =)

Haven't been feeling well this past whole week. From headaches, flus, and sore throats, to a hamster biting my finger and an anti-tetanus shot (Yes. I know it's ridiculous... LAUGH with me)

Big cousin turned 19! Celebrated at his place with a BBQ. Still think his place is by far, the best place to have a party. After devouring all the food I wanted, headed off to the squarish park with a basketball which couldn't bounce properly. Ended up playing "catching" at the playground. (Reliving the glory days! Except this, time I don't get tired as fast =P) Ended up on the swings with herrr. From there, it lead to playing basketball in the darkness (Train your eyes?). Everyone's slippers kept braking off from the sole. Got fed up after a while seeing as there were so many people there. Sat down and had a nice looong chat =)

=)

The party ended pretty late. Stayed over. Headache kicked in again. Watched a ridiculously long yet not so great movie. Fell asleep. Donkey was playing DOTA all night. Left for church the next day.

TMC PJ celebrated its 51st anniversary yesterday. I expected more from the turnout though. Mei-Yan's musical offering was moving =) BB boys are an official brass band now! Haha! Great job for only a few days of practice. Food served was good. Ate to my hearts content. For dessert, waited in the longest line everrrr to get not one but TWO ice kacangs ;)

Sunday school and prayer today was yet again, gooood. I keep feeling like I'm facing depression or something, or at least I act like it =/

Which brings me to where I am now, sitting in front of my desktop typing this, wondering if there's something more important for me to do.

______________________________________

Sometimes I feel like I'm unhappy or disappointed. It takes a toll on me. It was just recently that I realised I shouldn't care that much. IT HAPPENS. In my mind, I keep telling some people that there are bigger things to worry about. Therefore, I shall be no hypocrite for the Lord is my strength! =)

Your will above all else, My purpose remains

The art of losing myself, in bringing You praise

In my heart and my soul, Lord I give You control

Consume me from the inside out, Lord

Hooked on to "From The Inside Out" because I finally get the whole song. It's lyrics define the way we should live and want our lives to be. Thank you Faya for reminding me of that song =)

Read many interesting verses and passages in the Bible through my devotions. Some of which really relate to me personally. I LOVE YOU GOD! You never fail me when I need You most!

I'M FREE!
