i love the CHC culture of having our own ‘thanksgiving’ at the end of the year. At every level, we give thanks together – with CG friends, zone leaders, district leaders and the entire church’s leadership.
I didn’t blog after the thanksgiving svc with the church’s leadership, but i just felt very strongly that we are part of an big family, fighting together for the dreams that God placed in our lives.
Pst Kong & Sun: their sacrifices is really beyond imagination. Many people jeer at the fact that Sun turned a pop-star and do not give her enough credit. say what you want, but she remains the only asian artist that has ever made it on the American Billboard Charts. but most importantly, she has really given her life to build God’s house. honour upon honour still does not compare to her sacrifices and love for God. her life really reminds me that one man or woman CAN make a difference!
For myself, I want to give thanks for:
- God who was always faithful even when I was unfaithful
- SOT was such an experience
- my CG, W345. they are really the best people in the world. I mean which leader can boast of a CG that has full attendance for events. For the last 2 events of 2009, every single member attended it – they supported the event and invited their friends. you guys are really awesome (:
- my connect group leaders who are ALWAYS around. I always con them with things like, “just one more time.. one more week of chionging”, but every single week i keep saying the same things and make them chiong with me again and again. but they are “easily conned” and always chiong one more time with me. THANK YOU SO MUCH! nothing would have been possible if not for you guys!
- great friends! this year I made many new friends and grew closer with old friends. Terence said it right, it is an honour to know a great couple like Rick & Sherie. They have really impacted me with their love for God, zeal for life and most importantly their humility & love for people! Other SOT friends like Jaydee, Phiri Phiri, Liang Liang and the renowned captain lee that shouted at us for announcements every single day all made my day brighter!
And because Terence is so sociable and has so many friends, i now have many friends as well. All his school friends, CG friends are my friends now too (:
And special shout outs to sophieeee, zhang mama, bel in japan who always email, leilaa my angmoh friend. alf & bong for their company in school! kex & rah for good conversations over lunches (: my dear kex, i think the image of us sitting at HV starbucks talking about everything will be stuck in my mind for a while
- So happy to make the decision to do honours year. got to know more people in school, and found the most unproductive spot in school – lit honours room -_-”
- for my family.. how ma borrows my bags, JK who found the dream girl (at last), dad who is so random all the time, and cooks lunch for me whenever i don’t have morning classes
- yesterday, i just felt very very very strongly that, thank God Terence is my best friend! I really thank God that I am with you and you’re my bestest friend who is always around. (: (: and although you are so strange to find it strange to hold my hand to pray together, you’re still my fav prayer partner because you pray everything that is in my heart.
from the bottomest of heart, thank GOD for every good thing this year and i thank God IN every bad circumstance as well because He will never fail us.
my God reigns, His love will never fail me/ my God reigns, He’s ruling over all
in all my life/in every situation I know/My God is greater/My God is over all
above all sickness, above all fear, above every heartache here/ in earth and heaven, my God reigns.
above all power, above all thrones/ the greatest love i’ve ever known/today, forever, my God reigns.
