ahhh im very happy now!!!

haha, alot of people sending me their love, care and concern.

i realised that i missed out the USHER team in my last words!!!


USHERS
i love every single one of you leh! i really really learnt the what it means to serve with a spirit of excellence. others may view our ministry as a sidelined one, but we know that we are serving God regardless!!! and we are making a difference no matter what. jiayou with serving, i'll seriously miss all your company, and i'll miss serving with the team too. GO!!! :D
i chickened out of cutting my hair...

haha... okay la for economic reasons, and also i'm worried that i'll be very emo before i even enlist. i hoping that once i step onto that island which must not be named, i'll be filled with vigour and be able to handle anything! including losing my hair.


i think hair gives a sense of security for me, cause my fringe can cover my face. well forehead only, but it's like 1/4 of the face :P

oh!! my handphone number is 96365034!!


-anticipates many encouraging smses-
:D
oh ya! i'll do my best to reply all sms-es, but it may be pretty erratic :) phone batt please last super long please~



this is possibly my last post, so my last words!

i'm quite sad that i can't attend ESS. can't watch raphael dance!!!! gah. maybe watching my shepherd dance a couple dance with another CL will make me backslide, so God's exempting me from ESS :P

NO LA kidding! jiayou dancing if you do see this raphael :)
dance till your pants fall off!



HWACHONG CG
i'll miss you i'll miss you i'll miss you i'll miss you i'll miss you!!!
better grow while i'm gone okay. please bring new life into the care group! i wanna see many healthy spiritual babies when i come back out :) you guys can do it! i'm certain of it. i see so much potential in every single one of you, it awes me when i realise that i had the privilege to be part of this care group.

everyone, walk close to God k? or i'll come back from the island that must not be named and shoot you with my new rifle :P


JCcentral
i'll miss you guys alot too!!!! :(
thanks for a super super fun 1 year of my christian life :) everyone contributed to the strong bond i feel in this unit, and i'm sure that this group will grow to be immensely attractive :D ah remember BRA!
biblical, relevent, attractive!
erk discipleship that flows down from xiangyu is like that de. :P


all other friends!!!
i'll do my best in maintaining contact! i'm sure that i'll remain close friends with some of you :D and i look forward to when we are in UNI together! yup yup the future keeps me going strong even if NS turns out disastrous. hah. oh wait no i expect that it'll be a wonderful journey!!! that was an 'if' :P



farewell, keep me in your prayers!
pray that i won't stop praying in NS
OKAY!

i have finished buying all my stuff.
most things settled already

why do i feel like i'm going to die tomorrow!?


gah.


k it's just me and my nerves.
but i need to thank GOD for many people!

yinghan for meeting me on wed
jonathan, melvin and jiexun for accompanying me to army market!
i ran out of money cause i didn't anticipate that army stuff would cost so much. haha! wanted to treat drinks, then no money so malu. ended up they treat me HAHA argh. -dies-
many many people for msn-ing and sms-ing me tips, encouragements etc :)
raphael for meeting me later. he's gonna watch as i cut my hair. i wonder if i'll start tearing as the hair falls. >_>
wa wa and some people are sending me off tomorrow too i think! i'm really quite touched, cause i think i won't have the.. devotion to travel all the way down just to see someone for a short while.

wa i feel so loved. :D


k although i terrified by NS, i think God+ people will sustain me through!

if you're reading this, do pray for me!!
sms me encouraging sms-es, worship lyrics, what you learnt recently from QT, anything spiritual at all okay!
remind me of my identity, cause i'm afraid that i'll forget who i am.

sms me maybe next friday? haha that'll be when i'm 1/2way through confinement. most likely will be chui :P

thank you!!! i hope my spare imitation phone battery doesn't die or explode my handphone.

NS WILL BE A JOYFUL JOURNEY AMEN? :)




p.s. downloading hillsong albums to put into my phone hehehe.

sometimes i think i have very simple faith

which is why i have trouble communicating to others why i believe in God, why i became a christian and all.

i just can't explain it! and when i tell others that it's faith, they give me a look then say that that's such a typical christian answer


haha! but.. how do you explain something that is so much more than words?


i believe in very innocent things sometimes.


when i'm feeling very stressed and troubled, and i try to call someone and that person doesn't pick up, i believe that God has faith in me, that i am equipped to handle this situation i'm in.

or when i am evaxing at schools, to no results whatsoever, i believe that God values my efforts above everything else. and that keeps me going even if i don't see fruits.

i believe that all the scars and hurts that i'm going true will serve a greater purpose in the future. i don't know what, but i believe that these things don't happen for no reason or by chance. i'm not being a sadist, but i am truly learning to rejoice in my sufferings!


i believe in many things, and i believe the most in God.

it's not that i reject anything that goes against my faith. i do ponder sometimes, if God is real, is what i'm doing worth it. but normally, these serve to reinforce my faith further. and sometimes when i don't get an answer out of these questions, it doesn't affect me. why? i can't explain :)



haha, very new believer faith isn't it? i hope that this isn't just a phase of faith, because this is keeping me strong for now. i hope to have this childlike faith throughout eternity!!


wanna encourage you to listen to this song :) the song only starts a few seconds after, and it may load slow, but it's a wonderful song
if you aren't a believer, you may feel uncomfortable at atound 9 minutes in, but i hope that your heart will be open and touched by the song :D


First - City Harvest Church

First.

I love because you first loved me
I live because of what you gave
You died,
showed me how to live
Your mercy taught me to forgive

You came and poured yourself so free
Your blood washed away my sin
And now i can live again
Im more of you and less of me

My first love, forever you will be
My first breath, you're the life in me
My first joy, the world can never take from me
My covenant with you
Jesus

Your Love falls down (x3)
Over me

the perfect cut 2 has moral of the story de!!!

i quite like the show :)

today it was talking about encouragements vs. attacks.

[1 Thessalonians 5:11a]
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up
ahh i'm really quite heartened that people do read my blog :)

well it's been finalised that i'm entering pulau tekong on friday!
dum dum dummmmmmmmm
haha.. can i say that i feel very uneasy? gah

okay, my main issues with NS is simply, the physical aspects!
PT, exercise, IPPT, etc
if you don't already know, I AM SUPER UNFIT
flabby boy
flabby boy
flabby boy
flabby boy
flabby boy

>___<

haha plus i'm super unprepared. haven't bought ANYTHING, which should hopefully be rectified by tomorrow (intensive shopping!)
the gen acts NS guys will be bringing me to army market :)

okay la, i have sorta resigned to my fate already. haha! shall look to the positive!
you will see a less flabby kenny in the future :P

i'm still undecided as to whether i should cut my hair before friday. my rationale for not cutting is that i won't feel so weird when i cut inside, cause anyway everybody is gonna have the same hairstyle. whereas if i cut now, together with my new thick black specs, it'll be screaming "I AM NS GUY"

-shudder-

kenny is going to be a NS man soon

wah i'm really dwelling on this!!


haha well i felt very ministered to today, from care group worship to dawn chatting with me :D
friendly reminder: please pray for me, and sms me encouraging smses from friday onwards k! i'll be confined for 2 weeks, so i'll hugely appreciate it. thanks! :D


it's the little things that count!
