Going NS
Today is the last day of civilian life im having now. Haha to be honest i feel quite scared and quite excited at the moment. I guess its normal to have this kind of reaction ba, alot of others felt that way too.
I really thank God for opportunities to hang out with my friends before going in during the past 1 week or so =) Its really been enjoying to see them! Haha and have alot of fun too!!
Heard alot of stories and experiences about NS life these few days. Well to be honest its hard to judge whether or not i will enjoy it unless i experience it myself =/ Haha but one thing for sure though is that it will either make or break my faith. Will I compromise the word of God for the sake of something else? Am i able to stand firm in a worldly environment? Haha of course at the end of the day i hope i can pass this test.
Well its gonna be my last post before army life kicks in. Yup cya all again in 2.5 weeks then! =) Gosh by that time i be BALD!! LOL!
Counting down now...

NS ministry
Finally the day is here... The day where i officially went to the tertiary service in the NS cg haha. Lol was feeling weird that Saturday after noon i have nothing on!!! Sadly the first day of svc i'm actually late for it =X Anw the tertiary service is really an eye opener, alot of things is quite different from youth ministry. Its abit of culture shock to be honest. Oh well but God is the same no matter what. Haha i need sometime to adapt myself though.
The NS ministry is very fun i would say. Have that feeling after going for the NS vision night and my first cg of NS. Haha seeing how the brothers crap with each other and having fun together really shows out the atmosphere in NS ministry. Yea although still have alot of ppl i do not know yet, yup it takes time but i'll do my best to bond with them!
After going through the vision night and cg, i really feel convicted about serving God even in NS. Knowing that it is going to advance the kingdom of God really pushes me to go do it. To spread the Love of God to my camp and be a salt and light! To become a strong man of God! Yea i am going to miss my 2 years in NS le, i dun wanna miss my 2 years of spiritual life also!
Yea hopefully this conviction is not just a feeling, i pray that it can last me throughout my days in NS. I pray that i really can anchor my life on the word of God deeply..
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving." Colossians 3:23-24 "Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel. As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ." Philipians 1:12-13

Prayer
Been listening to "The Stand" It really speaks to my heart in terms of making a stand for God.
"So I’ll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
I’ll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours "
Dear Jesus,
To be honest part of my heart is really scared about this major change in my life, in terms of ministry and my life. Im scared cox i totally have no idea of what to expect frm there! Plus also how can i give to my new ministry too.. Lord help me, empower me and grant me the courage to make a stand for you in this new phase of my life. I pray that Father, i can really grow myself in NS, standing firm in ur words and not afraid to spread your love to the non believers. Watever temptations that may arise help me to overcome them! Help me to become the person You want me to be, help me to fulfill the plans You have for me! I wanna surrender my life to you, not out of obligation, not out of fear but out of love for You. God, reassure me that You are with me in this journey as i desire You more and more. Really a day at Yourcourt is so much better than thousand days spend without You. I have make this choice to step firm in Your words, help me to be firm in Your words!
Lastly i pray that Lord, u can help me to adapt myself to the new unit, new ministry and a new environment. Its a new beginning, i gonna do my best to give myself to the cg. I pray that i can really bond with my cg too!
Yea Jesus, thanks for listening to my ramblings and i really want to commit all of this into Your hands. Let Your will and not mine be done.
In Jesus name i prayed,
Amen

But really thank God tat Jason and Shawn is able to come in the end! Went to eat kfc and haha k im officially sick of cheese fries now. Its just to cheesy for me to take it sia. Haha shawn is as crappy as usual, entertaining us + irritating us.( haha if u insist! lol) Jason seems to enjoy our company too which is great! After that we went to watch Untraceable which is well ok? Haha i dun wanna spoilt the whole show though, the plot is interesting really, not really cliche but the ending is not really satisfactory though. Haha overall really enjoyed this fellowship with them, can really imagine wats life gonna be like with all of them in NS =D Jiayou and lets keep one another accountable no matter what we went thru in NS!
Haha today hang out with Yihui, Wee Keong and Limin for lunch. K surprisingly im the earliest to reach there!! LOL the rest have something on tat is why late. Yihui was really late to meet us becox she need to settle some stuffs in the morning. Yea this outing is pretty random to be honest haha. K la me, wee keong and limin have our fun too, swuaning limin pung sehing us to irritate her, window shopping j8, playing daytona and sharings! Yihui finally joined us in the end and we have our lunch (lol my stomach is grumbling like mad cox i nv eat anything ever since i woke up!). K after lunch we went to digest ourselves with yougart treated by Kiwi, thank God for u! Yihui has to leave after that, due to shepherding, the 3 of us we walk around bishan stuffing ourselves with random food - ice cream, bubble tea ( lol now i VERY full and stomach feels super weird!) and going random places LOL. Basically we want to kill time la nothing to do.
Haha but overall this trip is indeed great and fruitful, i really enjoyed it alot haha. Thank God for u all for NOT pung sehing haha =D
After parting ways i went to buy my googles in AMK. OMG it cost 26 bucks for 1 GOOGLE!!!??? Urgh if not for NS i dun think i wanna buy it also sianz.

New ministry, NS, NYSR and tons off other random stuffs which i dunno how to put into words. Yea its gonna be a new journey for me, a new phase and a new beginning, no time for emoing le so gotta move on! Yea!
