Conference Galore

Last weekend I was in Melbourne for the ASSCR Conference. Many international scientists came and talked about the progression of research and science in the world... and it was great. At one point, there was a huge debat on how Asia is currently leading research, such as, Singapore, Japan and Korea.

Coming back to Brisbane, there was our Legacy Conference... another wonderful weekend I had. I thought I was having post-conference withdrawal symptoms.. It was awesome, Legacy. I've still got heaps of recorded sermons to catch up on... Well, God's been great.

And then just yesterday and today, I was at another conference - Australian Lab Managers Conference at Southbank. It was humbling to be the youngest kid on the block, sitting in a conference packed with lab managers and many experienced professionals in this field. If this was not God's favour, what is? Was good to hear more about Occupational Health and Safety and its new legislations that were going to be put in place.. And somewhere along the way... they praised the Singapore, China, Taiwan and Korean education system - mainly Mathematics and Science. Hmm...

Pondering
Made me wonder a lot after watching the 1040 Movie, about God's work in Asia, and its purpose in being a nation to fulfil the Great Commission. Whao. I haven't really understood God's intent for me in the Science field, and have always questioned why I always felt God tell me to stay in my industry... but maybe the tip of the iceberg has begun to show itself.

Right now

Am feeling kinda sick right now. Throat was itchy yesterday....
Now I'm a little feverish... slight sore throat... and pulses of coughing contractions are making their way to eruption.

Before I go to bed... Praise God, My Encourager!

God's a great encourager. Been feeling quite discourage for about two weeks, but before and during Legacy, God's been encouraging me to take heart, and to drop disappointments and discouragement. I picked up, and let go, picked up and let go. Through Atieno, Evelyn, Kuzi and Yvonne... thanks girls, God's just kept bringing them to shower encouragement upon my spirit.

I'm so encouraged right now... and know God is one who affirms and pursues.

And for the rest of me, He gave me this as a reminder. :)


I watched Coffey grow from 'Trading my Sorrows' to 'All Ye'... and till today, I'm blown away. Please see his testimony:


In my entry on "Going Gear 5 With God", I wrote:

6th May, my Facebook status says: "Faithfulness is the KEY to unlock the doors God has promised He'll lead you to. =) Revelation!"

Faithfulness to God... not just God's goal. :)

Goodnight~ Let me rest up so sickness can't overtake.

Wait On The Lord

Over the last 2 weeks I have been making rash and abrupt decisions. And that's so not cool... ... ... ... ...

I somehow found myself pondering over the decisions I've made, without even seeking God before handing out promises or giving out my word. And this has caused me some trouble, as I double/triple book myself on certain occasions, having to do extra things because I didn't plan properly, and getting into trouble.... and many more...

BUT God had to take me through this bit in my life to help me see what I haven't been doing - involving Him in my decision making. God has also been teaching me to be 'open to Him'. Don't coop God in a box and expect Him to work that way, but to be ready for new and innovative ways that God make show up. All these I knew, but God had to seal that in my life by making me go through things to see it.

In the same way, knowing the theory of things doesn't really mean we KNOW how to handle it when things happen. God is my guide, my shepherd and my teacher... and I have to be soft and opened towards Him.

As I was laying my burdens and submitting my will to God, God cheered me up with this song (youtube below) that reminded me of what He had been trying to teach me lately. God is amazing and it's even more amazing how God puts events in sequence in our lives that summarises a whole story at the end - that we know God's hands are in every bit of our situations. He is moulding us!

But what I gotta do is 'WAIT ON THE LORD', quieten my heart and 'BE STILL, AND KNOW THAT HE IS GOD'. And not rush...



I love the part it says - I'll wait - until I know just what to do.

My simple prayer is to wait for Him - until I know just what to do...

Wait on the Lord

I dedicate this to my sister-in-Christ - Eliza... Remember what we talked on Wednesday @ Holland village? Don't forget it okay...

And to many brothers and sisters in Christ facing crossroads in your lives, may this song speak to you. :) Trust in the Lord.. He'll make your paths right. :)

"Be still, and know that I am God."
- Psalm 46:10 (NIV)

"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me."
- John 10:27 (LITV)

Wait on the Lord, let Him speak to you. :)

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
- Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

Christ Mix Umbrella - Lyrics

R&B never cease to keep a smile upon my face. What's even better is when you Praise the Lord with it!

Can't help but place it here again even when you've seen this before.



Loving this for I managed to figure out the lyrics for Christ Mix - Umbrella!

Verse:
I gave you my heart
In exchange for a brand new start
Lord then you made me clean
And you set me apart

You see I was in the dark
But you're the bright and morning star
Now with your amazing grace
You keep a smile upon my face

Chorus:
Because
When the son die He didn't die forever
Put Him in a tomb and three days later
Died on a cross and rose again
Dip me in His blood and washed away my sins, sins sins, eh eh
Thank the Lord I'm born again, ain ain ain... yeah~

Rap:
Look, her daddy been gone, her momma left when she was seven
Stuck a relative she didn't know was there a heaven
Wish I could grow wings and fly away from this place
That's what she told me but wiping tears from my face

But everytime you cry the Lord feels your pain
So put a fist in the air, you're ready for change
The race is not given to the swift or to the strong
You gotta endure I'm telling you to hold on

Umbrella (Christ Mix)

My second Coffey entry this day! I have no choice but to share this awesome video with all y'all Hip Hop / RnB lovers out there... with the tinge of an accoustic feel... like me!
This guy is amazing and doing that with the guitar!
And guess what, he made this UMBRELLA song into such an AWESOME SONG!

It's a must watch for all, even if you don't like umbrella, you'd be cheered up to your 150%! This guy is flowing with God's cheerfulness! (LOL~) afterall, God created happy days too right!

C'mon watch this!



Love the rap.... he's an anointed guy in this ministry.

Open The Eyes of My Heart

Here's another cool video from Coffey that cheers me up. If you're new to my blog, check out my first entry in my blog, there's a first video I posted from Coffey. That's my favourite!
I wished more musicians could use their talents for God's work!!

Open The Eyes of My Heart



Let God open the eyes of our hearts, that we may see ways to save more souls.
We are SUPPOSED TO WIN SOULS for the LORD!!!

"... and he who wins souls is wise."
-- Proverbs 11:30

All Ye!

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
- Matthew 11:28

He cheers me up with this song. Watch till the end, you'd be greatly blessed. :)

I love the rap part where he mentioned, "I've got a new life for free, but bought at a cost."
Makes us think hey... May we treasure this new life given to us. Let us not take His grace upon us for granted.
