i dun really know wat to write about but im still posting one anyway...

Good friday. went to west coast to play. had treasure hunt and water games. they made us run about under the hot sun! and i got a bit dizzy cos of the heat. (no! i must toughen up!) the water games r fun. i was the KING of my group den they had to wrap me up using newspapers. i looked so them* funny haha.

why is it so difficult to receive jesus into our hearts? is it because we dun really want to commit ourselves to someone else? is it because we don't noe if jesus really exists as the son of god? is it because we want to be in control of our lives, once we say that we have received christ, we will be stuck for good and everything we do will be without fredom, always under close scrutiny? or is it that all of these reasons keep us from making that first step. sure being a christian will mean that u will be persecuted ("what only christians can go to heaven?") and that u will have to go to service and cell each week, and that u have to sacrifice your leisure time sometimes to go to church events. i hated all these things at first. i didn't understand why do i have to do all these things and what for do i make these commitments, its not like people will praise me and i will get a prize. at that time, i dread going to service. i think its boring and its all the same, the things they preach, can't they have some creativity? ha now i noe how foolish had i been. sure there r some people who call themselves christians and yet they say they dun go to church. leaving the case of jehovah's witness aside, i dun think that that is the right way. there r no stand-alone christians. after u admit that u believe in jesus, u will go on a journey of love with god and in this journey, u will either backslide or forge on ahead, there wun be anything like staying at the same spot. i hav a spiritual sister who backslided by quite a bit and rite now, i dun noe if she still wans to follow god. im really sad over this. also i heard from ah ma kelly dat a pastor in our church totally withdrew from the church. she sort of quited, like she doesn't want anything to do with the church or god or christianity anymore, all that because of a guy, a non-christian guy. and she thinks that a person is more important than God? she's seriously deluded.anyway i dun think my church is boring. each worship session is like a rock concert, i get even higher den when i was at my favourite band mayday's concert. the sermon, yes i admit that i fall asleep sometimes but who wouldn't when they're tired? and when u're really fired up for god, u do things really differently, like when i encounter a problem, i will ask myself wat would jesus do? he probably will take the initiative and take up the job which nobody wants to do (sai gang). and im glad that ive been given the chance to know god, by some kind of his plan, i ended up in girls' brigade and thru there i knew god, im glad that i accepted him easily into my heart, i dunno if its cos im humble or dat im craving for his love, perhaps its a mix of both, still im glad that i took the chance. and recently i just had my breakthrough. because of some happenings, my faith in him grew stronger, i think its stronger than ever. i noe that really, whatever happens, it is all in his plans, and which father will give his child a stale fish, or even a leftover fish? of course jesus will give me the best fish/chicken/beef/prawn/sotong ever. its the same with which school i go to, which uni i go to, which man i marry bla bla. i think that even if sth really tragic happens, i will still believe in him. u think that im foolish. i think i hav a part of god's wisdom. also if u have been given a chance to know god and yet ur pride, ur unwillingness to commit ur life to him or whatever crappish reason u can think of gets in the way, den when the time comes, regrets r too late. i suppose those old ppl who never had the tiniest chance to know god, they had no choice but fer those who again and again pushed god away, i think god wil say,"who r u? i dun know u." u hav been given the chance but its u who've made the choice, there's no one else to be blamed but u alone. i feel exhilarated every time before i go to service. there's this indescribable joy in my heart. i wish dat i could share this joy with all other ppl but i noe that that's unlikely. heaven, hell, satan, jesus this kind of thing, the fewest of the few ppl of this era would believe in that.that's the sad part. god would move heaven and earth to want you to know him, through the things he arranged and all, yet there'e nth he can do if we have hearts as hard as stones. i want to share abt my god so much but yet what's holding me back is the fact that ppl would think im a RELIGIOUS freak. may i correct them that christianity is NOT a religion 2000 yrs ago? there wasn't even such a word like religion at that time! everyone just noes that there is one god and yet ppl, the ppl whom god loves yes, they want to defy him and so out came the world's first alternative god, an ox. how strange can man be? y would ppl wan to worship an animal? anyway, onli god and jesus can pass judgements on ppl, so im in no place at all to say that you you you wat wat wat. i shall end here.

God is around us. u can talk to him, complain to him, pile ur frustrations onto him, just dun ignore him. he's heartbroken each time u push him out of your mind.

anyway harry potter and the deathly hallows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can't wait to get it. im going to be at pop first thing in the morn on that day. yahhooo!!!!!!!!
