hey ppl! hmmms. jus wan2 share smth from my heart. (: its not anything Godly or biblical. but just felt God prompting me to share.
duno why but suddenly have dis thought pop out in my head. why isit i find it so hard to be committed to church stuff. like cell and stuff. its not dat i dont wan, DEFINITELY NOT. but why isit so?
den i started to think back. isit cos asher is born? i mean im not putting the blame or wad larr. he's Gods' blessing to my family! =D but i really feel that now i cannot just leave my mum alone like on weekdays or even weekends sometimes cos i need to be around to help my mum! and i find that i sometimes duno how to prioritise. cos its like church is impt. but my mum is also impt. sometimes i look at her, i really pity my mum. cos she always look so tired. and i sometimes i look at Julee, i can also see her like so tired of always getting me to church liao. ya..
so its like both ways to me always make me trap in e middle. just find that sometimes commitment to certain is so difficult for me. i duno for e rest of u but i really do feel like sometimes why i find it so difficult to commit to both earthly and spiritual mother. i really wan2 help both of them out as much as i can. but i just find it too difficult sometimes.
haha. oops. think im sounding to serious liao. anyw, dont so serious ya. but u know, i really hope each of your do get my point. sometimes i really think to myself i wan2 bo chup liao. but im in dis family! i have a part to play!
anyw, hmmm. ya. guess dats wad i wan2 say. think i end very abruptly. OOPS. sorry. but i duno how to end. HAHA. take care family! will blog some other time again! (:
with God's love and mine,
Adeline. =D

.: ADELINE IS BACK! (: :.
hey family! im back blogging. reason being ive got a laptop and so its faster and easier when it comes to using internet!
well, how have u all been? (: im good!
anw, im here to blog about G12 conference. hmmms. for me, as it was my 1st time, i really had a great encounter with God! so great to even be able to once allow His great LOVE to convict me! (: really felt refreshed and ready to be a WARRIOR OF LIGHT for God!
i felt wad really struck me was really pastor cesar's session on the vision for G12. before the conference, i nvr really thought about wad really is G12 all about. but now, i know the importance of having a G12 vision! only through the vision can we from viability turn to visibility! only with the G12 vision, can we ve visible to those pre-believers! with the vision in our minds, we are able to shine brightly as warriors for Jesus! =D
yup.. another thing dat struck me was Daniel's session. true enough, PERFECT LOVE CASTS OUT ALL FEARS! (: and with God's love, anything is possible! (: yay!!! i rmbr smth dat Daniel also shared about. something like: MOTIONS ... EMOTIONS. oops... kind of forget wad its about le. haha. SORRY. but i think im able to share about it cos it kind of struck me and i was just thinking about it. if we come to think about it, the things we do will tend to result in the way we think. if we constantly dont go for cell, dont go for church, hang out with friends who speak vulgarities, we will fall away from the glory of God!!! and its important not to do that! cos if we fall away from the glory of God, we wont be able to enjoy the blessings He has for us! =D so family, always think twice about things that you do! (:
and another thing dat caught me was HAVE FAITH AND BELIEVE! (: when we believe, God gives. so, lets all believe God for a great harvest this coming Miracle Sunday! i believe God has great plans for us! =D yepp! and lets also continue to pray along with ah ma for a great harvest from her school. likewad michelle shared, lets all align our hearts with Julee and pray along with and for her! i believe our cell will expand! lets all believe God for a MIRACLE! =D
WOW! dis sure is a long post! haha. guess i gotta go soon. (:
so, lastly, lets all pray for miracle sunday and also for the 100 000 ppl! Shine for Jesus!!!!! =D
love,
Adeline. (:

.: Serving HT duty! :.
With our ever wide smiles!
I have not been serving in HT for some time already. Actually dont really like to serve in this area, since I did not like wearing the vest and the cap. Definitely not a very good excuse! Haha! However I know I needed to set the example to all my daughters, hence I took it on even though I was not feeling very well on the first sun that I did.
I felt it was a wonderful experience, especially so since this time round I was the Counter Head! Haha, very different and also get to wear the ear piece with the walky talky.. So starlo! Haha! Although I was rather blur at my first day there, but I managed still to get things going and off course all thanks to my Ah Mi YP as well. So blessed as only the counter people have the advantage of the pastor being around! There were many matters which needed me to take note of, especially when the team is doing counter duty, but I am so blessed with a wonderful team who did with me!
It was a great, fun and learning experience which I enjoyed myself at the end of it all! The best part is to see the younger ones also serving along together with us! So wonderful! The next thing to look out for would be our choir duty in the month of MAY! So stay tune!

.: G12 conference :.
G12 conference is great !! =) And i learned alot in the conference , i think the most important things that i learned is about the G12 vision and fathering and discipleship!!i think God has showed mi why our church vision is G12 ?how to commite yourself in this vision? firstly i think that G12 vision is very powerful and it's brings the whole church together and untied ,epcially when you see the whole church doing one thing. and i think in a cell we are called famliy , in a family we communicate everyday ,knowing each other well ,helping each othe when they have any problem !pull them when the evil attacked us ! i think that G12 vision is to fathering then and to train them to become disciples maker=)and challage and change their lifes so that we can impar into their lifes and the blessing will flows down .G12 vision is about the three generation and G12 is about covering and conqust !! you must find ur 12 ,build your 12 and bless your 12!!!train them to become a disciples maker wohoho!!! to bless ur 12 as they will bless u back, when all the blessing will back to u , than u can bless them even more!!! Mattew 28:19-20" therefore go and make disciples of all nation , bapties them in the name of fatherand of the son and of the holy spirit and teaching them to obey everything that i have commanded you. and surely iam with u aways , to the very end of the age." think this verse speak to me that after you have your disciples u still need to baptise them in the name of the father ,son and holy spirit , not after u have a disciples u throw them one side and dun care them!! but to teach all the things that u have commanded to us and to obey all !!! than god's blessing will be with u always , till the end of the ages!!~isAbeL~

.: Exam Blessing :.
Back to school from the G12 conference that end last Saturday, I can felt that my walk with God is even stronger and I am more discipline to do my quiet time every morning regardless of how early I have to wake up. I felt the importance of spending time with God and was eager for the appointment I set with him every morning. Indeed, I have a wonderful experience at the G12 conference. I will post about how the G12 conference had impacted me and what did God show me after I have finished my reflection on it.
My NTU cell group on Monday went pretty well. The number of members in the cell was pathetic but all of us stay strong as warrior, believing God for a miracle breakthrough in our cell this year.
A few weeks ago before the G12, I was pretty upset when there were only a few people attending the cell group. I was even further saddened when Alvin told me that if our cell continue to maintain in this situation and there was no awareness to others in NTU about this cell, we might as well close it. This was one of the advices he get from his Ah Pa. I immediately said “NO” because I always see their efforts (Alvin and Eric) in managing the cell and I felt that its important to have our own cell in NTU. Closing down would definitely be a waste. I pray hard everyday after that asking God what is there that I can help in this cell group so that it can be carried on. A very strong feeling tell me that we should all prayed together everyday for this cell to be successful and we did by praying every morning. Think God is trying to tell me that every single member of the cell should aligned their heart right in believing that everything is under God’s control. What is impossible can be made possible if we believe in God!
I was further affirm when Eric shared with us that God spoke to him during the G12 conference about our cell. He mentioned that there’s nothing wrong with the activities we plan and God wants us to believe that everything will be going well in the cell if we put our faith in him. Through our discussion later on about the upcoming exam blessing, I really feel that it’s by the power of God working through our cell and not by our own human effort.
I was very excited on the upcoming exam blessing. We are going to distribute free Milo outside the school library. This definitely will arouse a lot of attention and people will look at us in a strange way on what we are doing. But who cares, we are blessing others and maybe through our Milo, students are aware of our cell and we will be able to touch their life and bring salvation! We may even have the opportunity to share gospel with students who are interested in Christ just like what Jesus’s discipline did. In this way, more people will be saved.
I pray that that we will be strengthen with confident as we carry out the exam blessing and that more people will be able to bring to salvation. Praying that our lord father will even implant to each cell members 30 names from our lecture group to reach out to and blessed each and everyone of the member in the cell with good health so as to stay strong during the exam blessing and even blessed us with the wisdom to manage our time so that we can study for our exam even though we will be carrying out the exam blessing. Thanks Lord Father!
Do update you more about the exam blessing next week. Continue to sit tight and walk right with God!! God bless you!!
Love,
Si Jia

.: My G12 conference Reflection! :.
The Crazy bunch of JLtribe!
This year I went to the conference with a lighter heart, free from any distractions and burden that is in my heart. I went to the conference telling the Lord I want a greater empowerment and a deeper infilling of the Holy Spirit and also to be able to understand the mystery of our Lord Jesus Christ. Just like how Paul prayed upon Ephesians. I too want to experience how great, how far, how deep, how high is the love of Christ.
"I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through the Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God." Eph 3: 16 – 19
God is really good as when you ask of Him, He will graciously show it to you. During the message by Dainel Khong, although it seems to be a message which highlights a rather basic point, but the very word “Love” just blows my mind. I remembered how I had a glimpse of what it means by the revelation of the cross at last years G12 conference, however I felt I understood to a new level this time round. Daniel mentioned that Love is the answer to everything and it is so true. I remembered going forward to be prayed upon, as I wanted to enter into the Kingdom of light. However as Daniel prayed, and followed on by Pastor Khong who came in to continue on the prayer, I felt the Love of God overwhelmed me. I just kept crying and crying and then I heard God telling me, He actually used my daughters to teach me what it means of God’s unconditional love. Many a times I guess I have been hurt and disappointed by my daughters through this journey of spiritual leadership, however as I draw closer to the Lord and depended upon Him more, I am amazed at how I can still love them. I know that it is definitely God who provided me with that additional capacity to do it. It is because I have experience the Love of God personally, and I did not give up loving them even thought it was not easy. This hence brought me to understand how Jesus felt and went through when he was nailed on the cross. The disappointment and hurt that I went through is really nothing compared to what Jesus did for us on the cross and it is really because of the unconditional love God has for us that he put Jesus through this just because of us. It is because of this that I that really allowed me to love my daughters more that what I thought I could. This time round, I did not only felt the pain what was experience by Jesus on the cross, but I felt the hurt and disappointment but yet the unconditional love which the cross could give. Praise God! It was definitely a breakthrough in my spirit being for me.
I also remembered at the very first night of the conference, Pastor Khong also did mentioned that although the church have already been in the vision for 6 years, however there might not seem to be a drastic growth in the church. However he believes the people who are here now are warriors ready for battle. I reflected upon this and realized it is rather similar to my own cell and I have actually questioned God at times how come it seems to be people coming and going, when will I be moving out and exploding pass what I can imagine me to have. Hence at that moment I took it by faith the words Pastor said, that my spiritual children who are now left with me are all warriors ready for battle. Amen!
Throughout the entire Conference, one main thing which I felt was always being mentioned by the speakers was if we BELIEVE, believe God is able to move in our lives, believe God is able to give us the multitudes, believe God for the impossible. Believing would then also mean an increase of our faith in those areas in which we see God in our lives. I know I left the conference with a new level of faith, as I saw myself climbing up this flight of stairs, going higher and higher during the last few message while Ps Claudia prayed for us. I also know that I need so much more to really depend upon the power of the Holy Spirit. As what really touched me during the ladies session, was not only the message shared, but also I sense such a strong presence of the Holy Spirit through Ps Claudia and she is really such an anointed women of God. The Holy Spirit impressed upon me that if I continue to yearn for His presence, I could also be like her, for I am no less special in God’s eyes. I just kept crying and crying as I am so humbled by that and so touched by the love of God once again. I also remembered one thing clearly that Ps Cesar mentioned, that we need to find 12, 12 daughters not slaves, 12 people not anything more or less. Although in the past I know the importance of why we need to have 12 people, but now I am convicted to know it is only then that we will experience the breakthrough of multitudes. I want my 12 God! 12 warriors for the Lord!
Sisters hence bag also must be the same.. but woh so rich! Haha!

.: Thoughts before G12 Conference 2007 :.
Just a few house before this years G12 conference 2007 which I believe the theme is
LIGHT TO THE NATIONS
As I look back, I realised I have attended the G12 conference since 2003.
2003: The Asian Challenge
2004: Implementing the G12 vision into your church
2005: G12 - Key to Multiplication
2006: Celebrating the Nations
It definitely has been a long journey and as I flip through my notes written during each conference, I realised how much God has changed my perception and view towards Him, towards the G12 vision as well as towards family.
As I prepare my heart these few days for the conference, I sincerely pray that each one of you, my daughters are also eagerly lokng forward to it.
I remember leaving the conference last year catching a glimps of what it means to experience the revalation of the Cross and also experiencing a deeper sense of where I am and my sense of identity to the Church. I also learnt the importance of consolidation and this hence stur in me a greater heart to really mother my children. God also told me then I needed to focus on God's work and to really yearn for the Holy spirit movement through serving Him.
Indeed as I look back till now, how my life was for the rest of 2006 after the conference was realy a continuation of what I experience and learnt from the conference. If I had not look back, I also would not have realised how real God actually has been in my life. What God placed in me through the conference last year was really a stepping stone, or a initial start to what He wants me to experience the rest of the year.
Hence as I approach this year going for the conference, I want not only en empowerment by the holy spirit, but I want to experience a greater and deeper infilling of Him and to be able to understand the mystery of our Lord Jesus Christ. I want to experience what Paul prayed over the Ephesians and I too pray the same prayer for each one of you!
"I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through the Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be flled to the measure of all the fullness of God." Eph 3: 16 - 19

.: Family! :.
These pictures means so much to me. Each and every one of you, especially those who went through thick and thin with me and still stayed on, you have indeed caught my heart! I understand why now each time you talk about family, I cant help but have tears in my eyes!
As I continue to journey through in ministry, with the many things that have happened, more and more I am coming to realised what it really means to be Family! Indeed like what Ps YC mentioned, family is tough, the more we give, the more we are likely to get disappointed. Then why do we still hold on so tighly to family? The very reason is because I am committed to each and every one of your life and am also accountable to God for them. Although along the way I do get disappointed, but to see your life change and to see you growing in the Lord just brings so much joy in return and this erases all disappointment!
I just do not know how I can truely express how much you all mean to me, but just want to let each one of you know I love you all so much (Tears running down my eyes.... ) I remembered when I heard Ps Yc shared during the EJ 288 meeting, I felt so proud of my father and so proud to be in this family and just cant help but cried! I am so thankful to the Lord for placing me where I am, although initially I did not feel that way. However I chose commitment over closness and responsibility over rights. I knew I needed to adjust and I knew I needed to just follow God's way and trust in Him!
Haha, if day and night I am thinking of you all, where got time to think about my "bai ma wang zi" right! Haha! So this one need lots of faith and prayer! Haha.. ( joking hor!)
Anyway on the serious side, are you ready to look far in the vision, are you ready to accept your place in the family? Start with being committed to one another!

.: OUR GOD REIGNS :.
Me blogged @ | 11:07 PM
.: God Know Me :.
I was wondering if anyone of you has heard of this worship song “Our God Reigns” because I was amazed at the lyrics of this song. It was quite different from the other worship song that I have heard before. It was a song taken out from “The Mission Bell” by Delirious?
“Our God Reigns”
40 million babies lost to Gods great orphanage,
It’s a modern day genocide and a modern day disgrace
If this is a human right then why aren’t we free?
The only freedom we have is in a man nailed to a tree.
100 million faces, staring at the sky,
Wondering if this HIV will ever pass them by.
The devil stole the rain and hope tickles down the plug,
But still my Chinese take away could pay for someone’s drugs.
Our God reigns, Our God reigns,
Forever your kingdom reigns.
The west has found a gun and it’s loaded with ‘unsure’
Nip and tuck if you have the bucks in a race to find a cure
Psalm one hundred and thirty nine is the
Conscience to our selfish crime,
God didn’t screw up when he made you,
He’s a father who loves to parade you.
Yes he reigns, yes you reign, yes you reign,
For there is only one true God,
But we’ve lost the reins on this world,
Forgive us all, forgive us please,
As we fight for this broken world on our knees.
Seriously, I always find this song quite special. It was a very nice song but I didn’t really catch the lyrics while listening. It was only this afternoon when it suddenly struck me to take a look at the lyric and ask me to refer to Psalm 139. And indeed Psalm 139 is a wonderful Psalm cos “God know me”!!
God Bless U!!
