Attended Daniel's BB presidential award ceremony at the Istana (: really really happy for him and im glad to be a witness there to see him get it and im sure daddy God is really happy too.. somehow i dont know why but it just feels surreal and i cant imagine myself being in his shoes, neither is it possible i guess. but with God, indeed everything can be made possible.
Also met Daniel's mentor today, Uncle Oliver and something he said really was a enlightenment. He said: " if something is easy, it wouldnt be call a miracle." thats so true and i cant agree enough. Seeing Daniel grow under the guidance of Uncle Oliver, i really sometimes wished i had a mentor like him. someone so close to get and someone who is whole-heartedly out to serve Him and him alone. He is indeed a man of God. Yap yap... although time was sacrificed to go for it, i think its worth it.
Looking back at myself im always ashamed because people tell me i've got alot of potential but i know that i tend to not work hard enough to reach that capability of mine and somehow take it for granted. which is why there is still so much to learn from people like aaron and daniel. When Dan's mummy said that "daniel is blessed to have friends like you all," i disagree when she refer to me because i feel that im more blessed to have a friend like dan and A and of course E. Its always so easy to drift away from God and somehow, they kept me going. and they are the reason why i have been able to stand firm in the faith that i have in Christ because they are faithful and thankful in the small things.
Life group has really taught me so much about Christ and the love of God that im really thankful for and i believe the journey would have been meaningless if not for LIFE. And i think its high time i get back to God again after lingering for abit here and there... hmmm no more time to waste i guess and its time to really study for Him and Him alone...
Many are struggling to live because they fail to know the real meaning of life...What would Jesus do?

Its far from easy, but we are not alone.
its easy to claim the name of Christ and say " Im a christian." but then it takes far more than that. and i realised we have the tendency especially in times of trials we neglect the wonders of God and i totally agree, we lose the wonder of our precious God. And i've really been vulnerable in my faith these days, which is unhealthy i guess. but today is the start of term 3 and we had morning devo as usual before the start of the day and i thought it was great because its a little booster before our Prelims 1 start..
Aaron shared: Hebrews 12: 1-2
"Therefore , since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus , the founder and protector of our faith,who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God."

We grow strong in the Lord as one
"that is, that we may be mutually encourages by each other's faith, both yours and mine"
-Romans 1:12
Life without God is meaningless
I've come to realized how much i have left God out of my life many many times in many occasions of my life. and im tired of being dry and dehydrated with the word and all. But nonetheless, attending ACTS centre on sunday really allowed me to see how wide or big the magnitude of God's love is. and im way guilty for what has been said,. that we fail to want God more and to be hungry for Him. And i've come to know that i need God so much more in my life. and im tired of standing alone in the battle where i clearly know who i can rely on.
life hasnt been smooth and many a times i wanna give up on the current road im going and try to search for alternatives that are realistic in my family, something that i can show results in and will not end up disappointing my parents. but for now, i've yet to come up with anything but to face with the status quo. Though its dreadful, its tiring, but im hanging in there every single day of my life. And the worst part is, im falling back without God.
Going through morning devotions with LIFE has been rather a mere reflection of how far i was from God and how human i was in the world. But going through it, i've learnt to come out stronger and to emerge having to trust God so much more..
The journey ahead can be tiring i can foresee and i know that there things that people out there do not agree with me doing, but nonetheless, im willing to give it a try and to let God bring me through this episode. im afraid of failing and falling and to face with disappointment, but i know that He has a plan. and all we have to do is to be willing to let Him be the planner.
Thank God for how much he has seen me through so far and how much He has been taking care of my family.
Wont have much opportunity to blog because life has been really hectic with school work.
ever praising Him,
Van

The King- the musical
Really amazed about how God works, and how the right time just falls into place...and yap how this musical really touch my heart.and also touched the hearts of many around me.
God works in ways i cannot see and at times when i seem to be away from God, He pulled me back close to His heart once again.
Although many christians out there have already known about the story of Christ and how He was crucified on the cross, but somehow as life gets busy we ( that includes me) start to live our own lives without God and at times, we turn against God and once again, we are like those people shouting : "crucify Him"... time for reflection van...
