Lights Ministry is the first ministry I did for the church before about 3 years ago. One time somewhere in those three years i posted this photo taken by my mentor salem and put caption "bring light to the world." I was so amazed when i saw the fb memories recap yesterday because I know in my heart how I am fulfilling this very line today. There is always power in vision! A man without vision is totally lost. If you don't have an aim or a target you will never have a plan. We all have our purpose on this lifetime, pair it with a vision! Keep moving forward. Don't be fearful to try and fail. Life is like that. It's a trial and error until you find the answer. And it will be a continious question and answer portion. Once one question is done you need to solve another one other wise you will stop in the middle of the road. Your journey will never be full. I desired to bring that light of Jesus to the world few years ago. I may not have been in the whole world but at least I've already started somewhere. Everything is a process and there should be a progress. What's your vision my friend? What do you want to take part on the great commission? When will you take part? Live life Now • Bring the Light of Jesus Everywhere • Love Every Human Beings As possible as you can • Preach the Gospel to every Creature. #travelforJesus #light #love #lovemuch #allforJesus #allglorytoGod #Lifetothefullest #life #passion #calling #ministry #christianlife #greatcommission #onelife #onepurpose #oneGod One priceless and memorable photo With Joshua and Daniel!!!! Baby sitting while in the mission trip! These two are awesome kids! I once again been taught of the genuine joy found in little children. They seem to laugh like there is no end and if they are hurt they will cry where ever they want and cry as long as they can without thinking of what others may think. They will express whatever they need to. When I was playing with them i can't describe the fear I have when ever Joshua is running so fast and running almost in the street. My heart beat so fast. I wonder if God is the same when ever we are almost drowning down, sinking in our miseries or almost near in danger. Children has tons of teaching instored within them. Learn from them. We are once like them. Innocent, fearless and full of joy. Go back from that moment. Not to be childish but childlike. #childlikefaith #missiontrip #passion #calling #kidzlove #lovefortravel #thailand #changmai #allforJesus #allglorytoGod #loveforservice #Godmoves #Lifetothefullest #kids #lovemuch #spreadlove #life #livinglife It is important to love people and build relationship with them. I have learned that many times in my leadership years but the most I have really learned and inspires me to do more, and never give up in my calling is to be able to give an aid for them to see the potential out of them. When I was in takeo cambodia I had a long day teaching in the school but then when I went back together with the kids in the orphanage I still had the spirit and strength to have an intimate art bonding in the girls quarter. There is great potential with those kids. I love the spirit of Chandra. To be able to help those kids have a glimpse of what they can do and a potential of what they can be is a great honour and priviledge. True! They may have less at the moment. They may be in the orphanage right now but there's many opportunities for everyone when we believe. I love those kids. They truly brought life within me. They have unleashed something from me. Everytime I go for a trip I go back with lots, lots and lots of stories back in singapore that I always impart with my mentees. I am so happy when one of them travelled with me in thailand last month. Unexplainable joy to see them find their own passion and path. Glad to be part of it. How about you? #onelife #lovemuch #kiddoes #missiontrip #travel #Lifetothefullest #livinglife #traveller #travelforJesus #love #blessed #blessedtobless #kids #thankful #art #life #feetonthego #passion #calling #takeo #cambodia Have you asked yourself if you are worthy to be love? Maybe to other people not but God will never look at you that way. God will always love us because He is love. The greatest statement of your faith is love. Love others•Love yourself•Never Stop Loving! Even in the most difficult times and most unlovable people. You will never know how much power Love has if you won't try. 😊😊😊 #lovemuch #spreadlove #Godislove #christianlife #calling #passion #onelife In my Takeo, Cambodia trip I had such an awesome time being an art teacher. God really have his own plan, which I agreed always better than ours. When I was still in the planning stage and arranging things to do in the kids of cambodia, I told Mr. Kit i want to share some art stuff with the kids. That time I want to let loose and have fun again with colors and brush. I supposed to have a carefree art thing with the kids in the orphanage with water color and then it turned out when I got there they want me to teach FOR REAL in the school. I never hesitated to say yes though I never hold a brush for about 7 years. It became a burden to me hearing these kids have zero idea with art because they have been trapped in a gloomy mindset of after war setup. Art got some magic in kids, that stir up their creative minds and imagination. Art can bring out unspoken words and unexpressed emotions that can break any wall of miscommunication, language barrier and silence. That experience was totally awesome. I got to teach them and all of them taught me back, the strokes of colors i did back there were the strongest and boldest strokes i ever did becAuse i did it not for any client or professors but out of love for those kids. Those kids taught me something from within that is irreplaceable. I got to enjoy my birth right giftings to bless people which I never thought I still have. Don't stop trying and exploring things friends! The race of life will never stop, don't stop in the middle of your journey. Don't waste what ever you have! Bless people! Love more! 😊😊😊😊 #creatingmemories #travel #takeo #cambodia #onelife #alonetraveller #spreadlove #traveller #passion #calling #art #schoolexperience #missiontrip #teacher #thankful #blessed #favoured #livinglife #Lifetothefullest So I went for a Jog this morning with my housemate. We sweat and had fun! We had time to appreciate nature in the park. I had another great time to appreciate life! I'm alive for a purpose! Everytime I see the sun shining up there, there's a sign of life. We end up sitting in the grass near the stream and had a good conversation and read the bible and exchange ideas and dreams. One great morning. Thank You Lord! For another day to live! 😊😊😊 It's a priviledge to have one more day on this earth. Good morning. #sun #signoflife #jog #earlymorning #morningperson #naturelover #nature #love #livinglife #timetoponder #devotion #Lifetothefullest #onelife This "fear" thing is the main reason why most people can't live to the fullest. We are all a victim of fear but don't let it take full control of you. This world is full of chaos! It will never end until its all need to be ended. If you will wait until the most wished wish "WORLD PEACE" you are waiting for a lifetime. Get hold on your life now and stop letting FEAR reside within you. You don't let two opposite spirit reside within you or else you will have your own little war inside yourself. I remember how many times I got fearful but I just speak truth to myself and it started to go away. I will never forget that before i went to vietnam there was a tension going on between china and vietnam. Before I went to cambodia and philippines last february most of the air accident is happening. Before I went to Thailand, some friends of mine is telling me that there was a bad raping scenario going on, when I was up in the sky great turbulance was happening and right after I came back to singapore there was a bombing that happened. I am still so fearful but excited at the same tine thinking my soon trip to Israel and Africa. There will be no safe place here on earth. Start livibg now and don't stop fear stop you from living. If it is your time it will be your time. If you are about to loss a job, loved ones, face a barking dog or a terrible disaster then be it. Life is full of uncertainties. Even you bedroom can never be safe for you to stay. Live now my friend! Live out your purpose! Live for the Glory of God! So, i wAs crossing the street this morning, just my normal day going for work then while walking I suddenly looked at the blinking green man. I used to see that timer for many times i have been crossing the street, but today i took out my phone and took a video. While capturing it the spirit within me urge me to make an impartation out of it. This is the very thing that came to my mind in the split second of staring on the timer. We are like that green man there. Our time here on earth is numbered. What if we run out of time? Our life span is like that timer there on top of the green man, it's gonna be unstoppable until that green man turns red. I hope today you will realize how valuable time is. Life can only meets the real value of it if you treat it with it's value. Don't be like that green man there that just waited until he turns red. You don't have another life to taste it. Salt will never be appreciated or will never have worth if it lies just there in your kitchen countertop but once you put it in your cooking and use it for its purpose it serve so awesome. How about you? Would you choose to bring life some spice? Live life now! Don't wait! You got not much time. You have a greater purpose than what yourself and this world shout in your brain! Your brain and so as your life will be limited of only what you see and feel and experience. Life is more than that my friend! Get up and Catch your vision! #Lifetothefullest #livinglife #creatingmemories #capturingthemoments #justathought #morning #life #walking #chaseavision #justdosomething #travel #serve #lovemuch #spreadlove #lovemorehateless #Agreatpurpose #calling #passion #share #bless #onelife There is no secret in life. I know not everyone of us believes on supernatural things or the divine existence of the high authority but then it just came across my mind; what if along the way while we are committing sin or doing something on secret (at least we thought it's a secret) we realized or suddenly thought someone is looking, that someone can see us while doing it. Would you still proceed and go on? Would it be discomforting in the middle of what you are doing you looked up and it felt like somebody is staring? Isn't it awkward to suddenly realize while talking about someone in secret it's not secret at all because someone can hear? What if we thought we are alone at work, nobody sees and just went on in our social medias all day long because we thought nobody can see us but some strange feeling tells you someone is looking. When you looked at pornography materials or lust after someone, it's never true that only you know. Hahaha... I know that sound creepy but I guess if we just try to exercise that concept there will be a better chance for us to win over temptations in life. If only we can convince ourselves enough that there is no such thing as a secret in this world we will not be doing thing secretly that often. I know this for sure! I am not an exemption with this. All of us struggle in some point but this very thinking is the exact thing that convicted my heart to try my very best to do things according to what that voice within me tells me. I am sharing this because it helped me a lot. I hope it can help you also. I call it divine fear, you may call it conscience if you like, whatever it is, "El ROI". One thing is for sure there is no such thing as "hidden" in this world! Someone can see, someone can hear, though you think nobody. #reflection #divinefear #nosecret #transparent #workinprogress #justlikeyou #progress #human #divinecall #purity #followerofChrist #christianlife I am blessed to be a blessing! Come on, let's all tell this to ourselves! 😊😊😊 have a blessed monday! You are blessed! "People will not care of what you know until they know what you care." I just read this statement in the book i am currently reading while on my way to meet some girls from the church. This statement was given by the author of the book treasure hunt to demonstrate that the best way to get people love to go to church is an act of service. The moment i read it, it really strike me because i strongly believe in this concept. Most often i get to give the most respect i will give to a person whom i can see how passionate they can be in serving God and fulfilling their purpose. I get to admire and be inspired of people whom I can see how much they want to honour God by honouring their calling. I want to see what they care about before i can even say anything about them. In my leadership i always make it a point to show them what is my passion and calling and try my best to show them theirs. We all have different purpose but same calling, to be a follower of Christ and proclaim the good news. What do you care about? Is it your physical appearance? Your career? Lovelife? Whatever it is one thing is for sure people will know eventually. People will see what you really care about in this lifetime. I pray that you are magnifying and reflecting the right thing. I hope and pray that you are showing the people around you that you care for their souls so they can follow the same example and they will do the same thing. 😊😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 God bless everyone.. Hello. 😊 Today have you counted how many times you have done wrong to someone and have been forgiven? Hmm.. Countless i guess. Do you need to apologize for anything today for a small matter or big thing? I believe there is power in humility and forgiveness. Why do we need to ask for forgiveness and repent? Why our full of grace and merciful God just forgive us like that? Why does He need for us to ask for it and really say it from the core of our soul that we are sorry, that we want to turn aside from our old doings and we will repent before we can be fogiven? There's always a work being done in the process of apology. Admitting we are wrong and seek for forgiveness and say we are sorry is one way to remove pride from ourselves and release us from the bondage and the other parties involve. There is a great peace accompanied from Apologizing and forgiving. Forgiving someone does not just free you from any heaviness and baggage it brings joy to you and to the people around you. TODAY IS I'M SORRY DAY and I FORGIVE YOU DAY!!! Mark 11:25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins. " To anyone I might have offended and cause pain and hurt I am sorry! What ever weight it is, i apologize! For all that may have done wrong to me i release forgiveness to all of you. I may know and may not know it. You may have talked about me at my back or hurt me unknowingly, "El Roi" the Lord sees, i forgive you from the bottom of my heart. 😊😊😊 1 John 1:5-10New King James Version (NKJV)Fellowship with Him and One Another5 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us oursins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. Good morning. Today have you looked up the sky? Or greet someone with a smile? Have you ever wonder lately how blessed you are in the midst of trials and struggles in life? No matter what is our current situation right now remember in the past many years of our lives God had made us through it to make it today, so be thankful. Count your blessings and it will multiply even more not your miseries. Luke 17:11-19NKJV Ten Lepers Cleansed 11 Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. 12 Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off. 13 And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” 14 So when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed. 15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan. 17 So Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? 18 Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” 19 And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.” Don't be like those other 9 who never give thanks. Today thank God for whatever you have and thank as many people that have done good in your life and also those people who might have challenged you but made a big contribution for who you are today. Spread gratefulness today. Today is A THANK YOU DAY PEOPLE! Thank you for all who have been part of my life! 😊 From the bottom of my heart "THANK YOU!" #grateful #Lifetothefullest #livinglife #thankyou #spreadlove #loved #christianlife #share "I don't need easy, I just need possible." - bethany hamilton. How many of you watched the movie soul surfer? Bethany was left with one hand after a shark attack and she is a professional surfer. She said those lines while trying to get back on board and surf again though it will never be the same again. Life trials and struggles comes and go. We all get a bite of it but the difference will always be how we make it through. Hold on guyz. Romans 8:28 says, all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord" things happen for a reason we may not know it while we are in the storm but will surely gonna treasure the lesson after the storm. God will never leave nor forsake us. He will be with us in the midst of the storm. This is my 2nd favorite line she said in the movie when she was asked, "if you can change what happened and never gone sufing that day will you do it?" (Pertaining that day she was attacked) this is her answer, "I will never change what happened, for i will never be where I am right now if it did not happened. I get to embrace more people with one arm than when I still have two arms." Try to see a good perspective in life always. Whatever may happen, bad things or good things don't let the situation changed you. Change your situation. Give your trust and hope fully to God. 😊 smile and move forward..😊😊😊 have a blessed friday guyz! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻happy weekend! Are You a Lip Service Believer? Last sunday preaching Pastor Jeff said, "Talk is cheap, action is deep!" I guess, I always believe that our purpose is to be followers of Christ not just a believer. For me, as a Follower of Christ we should move outside the four corners of the Building of the church and be with the Church! People my friend! Relationship! That is more important than any other learning or lesson! There are so many people in the streets who haven't heard about the Good news, there are so many kids around the world that need love and attention and guidance and there are many souls just everywhere wondering around the darkness. Live every Word of God by making it Alive! Try to wake up every morning and put actions on your words. I really love this line from a man of such an inspiration, he said, "I'd rather be in the darkness thinking of the Church rather than be in the church thinking of the darkness." It's good to pray about the chaos of this world but i believe it is better to get involve.😊 Our light will be useless and worthless if it will not shine so bright. A light can only shine so bright if it's in the darkest place. If a light remain in the light it defeats it's purpose. Choose to make you light shine. Be a true believer of the Word and put an action as a Follower! 😊😊😊 Be The light and Salt of this very Dark World! #wordofGod #reflection #devotion #allforJesus #christianlife #Imafollower #loved #saved #redeemed #favoured #blessed Isn't amazing to see in a tangible way how God plan. How God moves or works. I believe there is no accident in life. In what ever situation people always make choices. It's just a matter of poor choices or Godly choices. In every twist and turns of life there is always the PLAN of the Lord and the TRAP of the enemy. Last night we went to Malaysia to help two friends to be extended here in singapore. Two of them both prayed, two of them have the same intentions and clearly both of them have shown great faith. One was given the chance to stay 30 days more in singapore with a very smooth process. One will only stay until the 6th of Sept. and was interviewed in the office. It is not the matter of who have the more faith or who believed and prayed more. It is a matter of God's plan. There are different ways God used for each people. I don't know what is the great work that God will do for the both of them but one thing I am sure of, God will do greats things to the both of them. I am so thankful to witness again how God move differently in each people's lives. I was once again left amazed of Gods might and grace. I was once again been blessed to bless people. I once again witness that joy from those two and was very blessed to see how both of them see both of their situation in a positive and Godly way. Excited to see more... Remember! God has plans for you. He is the Master Planner of everything. He created the world and everything came from Him. Be still. God is not done yet. He is just starting to make all things beautiful. We are all under construction! Wait until you see the final outcome. Keep the Faith! Stay in God's Plan. 😊👍🏻🙏🏻 Proverbs 19:21New International Version (NIV)21 Many are the plans in a person’s heart, |
