wow... what a wonderful week.

Worship ministry
God Spoke to me alot on trusting him, holy ghost and also believing in what i have never done before. I can so tangibly sense God assurance of what he want to do through me. something great, big and awesome.
"Horse are vain hope for deliverance , despite of its great strength it cannot save.
only those who fear of him and trust in his unfailing love. " * abstrct from psalm33*
when i start to look at myself, i realise there is alot of things i cannot do, i cannot accomplish, i cannot attain. but when i start to gaze upon the lord, i know he can, and he want to do through me.
yesterrday i have a thought, how impactful can i be? will my vision of holding praise and worship rally , conference, going churches to churches to help will come through?? this thought came into? compare to all those foreigners, like hillsong... can hope singapore really do it? can Nel lim really do it?
God corrected me, i can sense the whisper of his in my heart. God uses the foolish to shame the wise. the key is not me, his HIM. My heart at the moment just cant help but filled with awe of him. what i like to do now is to give my life fully to build his church.

pastoral ministry

camp just ended. Its a wonderful camp have to say!! Food was really good!! all thanks to Lennon who have put in great effort in small detailed. =)
This camp is a really a great one cause i not running the camp at all!! ( finally!!) in the past i am always like some crazy woman running here and there to run the camp, this time round.. i am FREE!!yea!!

God confronted me and i did it.. i dun think i did a great job.. which i believe i can do better.. but a good expereince one with God.. i really think polydi ministry can be a faithfilled and spirit filled ministry. because we are humbled enough to ask God for it.
God really use diff kind of people.
really am thankful the way God is willing to use me to impact the ministry and church in such a manner. sometime i just think the way God use people is really funny.. haha...

Thoughts

wow... time flies.. anniversary finally over. All the hard work paid off and i really see how God had brought the whole group through this period of time.
2 months ago.. still remember that the whole dance team was like struggling like hell with the moves, the concept, the storyline and everyone was like so stress with the whole performance. 9 mins... better be a good one.
But i really wanna thank God for the team.. zu, georgia, lishan, jovin for helping in the dance, really wanna thank God for matthew and team for the break dancing, know its hard for you all and alot of you are hurt in the process. YOUR TREASURE WILL GREATLY BE IN HEAVEN man.. =)
wanna thank God for all the lyrical dancers like lishan, georgia, ruisi, laila, joyce, micca, yanling, creamo. its not easy to dance with no dancing back ground, but yet i see how you all work very hard on it. God have honoured you all.
The RnB dance was really cool.. hear alot of good feedback from the ground that they think teh rain dance was really cool. thank for eugene, veron , jov, zu , ruisi and lishan. you all have work hard for the extra practices. Our prac paid off man!!!!

Really missed the good times at smu practicing.. there are so so so many jokes flying ard during the prac... jov got molested by kehan, matthew trying to act like kenny, mr donald try to rap but cannot make it...georgia and etc.... so many wonderful memories during practices... like before the dance will go and buy subway and makan, having supper at bee hoon stall after prc... it was just so memorable lo..
now no dance liao... feel wierd.. cause sunday no need go smu liao... sad...
BUT GUYS I WILL MISS YOU ALL MAN.. LETS HAVE IT AGAIN NEXT TIME!!!!

But definitely .. beside the fun.. God taught be so so many lesson throughout the whole process of the dance preparation. Humility... understand that all our talents belong to God.. what we do is to offer it back to him for his glory.. creative arts belong to God and best shd be from the church.. thats something i hear from God so so strongly. God created us in his image.. therefor lets shine his image fully to the world thru the church. that shd be the way..
humility to handle success.. i tell God that help me to handle the success lets say the dance turns out well.. i dun want to be proud out of the success of the dance..
Indeed God honoured my effort and my heart posture.. i dun think i am FULLY humble. But God knows the depth of my heart. surprise that the people ard commented that the dance was a surprise success.. all glory and honour to Him. He is the one that make everything happened. my talents and giftings belonged to Him.

Now is time to refocus my time to the pastoral .. have so much plans and thoughts for TP.. really believe tat TP have to revive and grow to a higher level. If God is real.. he will die to do something thru us... ( which apparently God already died once!) so lets do it. Having regionalising. Its not a strategy alone.. is a vision. God use us.. praying real hard for all my leaders. pray that they will have burden and owned the group.
There is a restructuring also. I wil no longer lead Rp. another thing that God really testing me.. But i tell God that i am willing to go thru it cause i know i have Him with me. In God i trust
yesterday think thru of my dream that i have for RP.. though now i no longer can do it with them.... but i believe the new leader will do even better things then i have did. If God can use such a simple person like me.. God can use the new leader even much much more.
But i wil definitely miss the team and the CG people. But anyway.. i can still see them la... ha! =)
but i will oversee 2 more new teams .. God help me to expand my wisdom and also my time... hahaha.. need it man..

TP PPL time to kick some butt liao!! lets not be passive ,.. but be impactful in the ministry that we are doing. =)

Psalm 28

God knows me the most even more then i know myself.
He knows what i cannot give up, hard to give up and he knows what my fears are.
But yet he loves me the way that is perfect without blemish, thats the beauty of God's love.

Recently i been thinking alot about worship evangelism. worship is not just a tools to get people to worship God ( for in house) but worship is a tools to BRING THE PRESENCE OF God in to the assembly. no matter is non believers or christians. Thats the power of the beauty of God.

Worship in the splendor of his holiness. imagine God surround you with his thick presence of his holiness, the sweet aroma of his Love, grace his beauty just ambush you from left to right.
wow...... thats what i hope to bring every week to the audience, his church.
i really believe Hope singapore worship team can really be a blessing to the rest of the hope churches around the world. to help them be equipped in worship ministry in their mission and bring the reality of the presence of God to many many people ard the world.

worship is a encounter of God's reality. Like elijah and the God of Baals... in 1 king 18:23-24.
People postrate and cried out to God when they see God starts to manifest when elijah call upon.
Am i able to show the reality of God to people? how my relationship with God my love for people?

btw... this month there gonna be a great change taking place in my life.. waaaaaa... i realise dun like it actually.. but for God i am willing to be willing...
God help me to surrender more to you.

I will not bring any worship unto the lord that doesnt cost me anything.
