i've learnt alot of new tings today...can feel miself growing spiritually stronger each day!!! was actually quite troubled by the fact tat e243 n e356 are veh much different...the way we fellowship, the way we behave n react to given situations, the level of maturity, the urgency to bring new friends to Christ n the general attitute towards Christianity are all different...spent a few hrs after discipleship fellowshipping wif denise, ting n claris...i'm feeling soo much better as compared to yesterday!!! at least i'm clear of mi purpose in e356..together wif silin, we're going to mk a difference!!! denise said smt which impacted mee alot!!! she said tat no matter which cg we're in, wat matters is tat we carry the spirit of e243 in us!!! the fire n passion in us is infectious!!! am luving every moment of mi walk wif Christ...was feeling tired physically, emotionally n spiritually b4 cuming 4 discipleship but was renewed by the word of God...realized tat i've been sticking mi nose into tings tat doesn't concern mee...no wonder i'm burnt out soo fast...gotta be wise n tink twice nx time!!! yeah!!! looking forward to badminton tml n biblestudy on thurs...uh huh uh huh...=D o yar, below is mi fav song...enjoy!!
=Crossing Over=
We come, before ur throne
Our hearts we gif to u
We long to see ur kingdom cum
n bring ur truth to all the earth
Nations will cry out ur name
Send us to ur harvest,
Lord we pray..
By ur spirit o Lord
We claim the nations,
of the world 4 u Jesus
Pour down ur love
Holy Spirt move in us today
By ur spirit o Lord
We claim the nations,
of the world 4 u Jesus
By ur word of truth,
we're crossing over
to claim the lost 4 u...

i'm exhausted!!! i need God more den anyting else now!!! i'm devastated too..adrian told mee today tat he is going to transfer me n silin to e356...the feeling of being seperated frm the pple hu haf been by mi side, watching mee grow spiritually for the past 2-3 mths was dreadful!! but wat could i do? i din haf a choice...i tried sulking, i tried reasoning, i tried refusing but nth worked..the lil kid inside mee wanted to scream its protest but smt stopped me...i remembered the pact i made wif miself.. i wanted to start repecting mi leaders especially adrian...realized tat i've been rather rude to him lately...sooo, i buried all the discontent inside mee n agreed to the transfer..immediately after adrian announced the transfer, everyting changed...i could practically see the barrier e243 build around themselves...they toked n laffed like nth had happened..for the first time, i realized how silin n grace (the quieter members) feel when we tok or laff among ourselves...i felt left-out..then, they decided tat it was time to go...packing their bags, they went off together...i wanted to join them but i din feel as if i belonged to tat group anymore...watching them go off liddat delt mee wif yet another blow...i felt hurt...anxious not to let anyone decipher mi feelings, i put on a big big ultra fake smile...gathering mi thoughts, i realized den tat it was the end of smt but the beginning of another...felt much better aftr tat...went to jurong point to watch "the shutter" wif zhi wei n li zhen..we crapped n laffed alot...hahha, they're fun to be arnd larhx...=D
i also realized tat members (including miself) are becoming more n more "rank" consious; some of us for the wrong reasons altogether...its good to wanna serve God more...its good to be a helper or main helper..budden i tink the most impt ting is to get our relationship wif God right first..rite now, all i wanna focus on is to walk side by side wif God!! i wanna grow to be more like him!! i wanna be a disciplined christian hu does not dread doing QT and does not waver in the face of temptation!!! am having trouble trying to overcome certain issues in mi life rite now...feeling veh burdened by mani tings...i hate feeling dis way!! i wanna haf freedom but the onli way to attain freedom is to lose salvation..this is a definate uh uh...o well, trials n tribulations mk us stronger!! tml is discipleship n prayer meeting!! hope i'll be able to breakthrough again n tk a step of faith!! God, i need u!!! Come heal all the wounds..Use mee as an instrument 4 ur glory!! this is mi prayer...Amen!

=Refuge=
i sing a luv song to u Lord
everyday, evernight
tell of ur goodness and mercy
tell the world, how u rescued me
picked me up frm sin and shame
ur breath gives me new life
where can i go frm ur presence
under ur wings, i tk refuge
ur spirit lives, within mi heart
i know, we'll never be apart
(Chorus)
everyday, i draw closer to u Lord
i long to see ur face
and hide in ur embrace
all mi life, dwelling in ur holy place
mi heart oh Lord u've changed
i'll never be the same (x2)
