the 100k blessing...

it's a nation-wide movement to bless the people around us. and by the people around us, they can be anyone we know. they may not be someone whom we know closely and they may not be even someone we know. whoever God leads us to, we'll do it. even if it's someone whom we dislike or have no relevant topics with.

this 100k thingy is not a scheme by the church to con people into going to church and then further con them into donating their hard-earned money which could otherwise be used to buy worthy things such as cds. i know that there are indeed christians who are over-enthusiastic in their invitations to ppl for them to go visit their church. i know that there are cases are 'christians' who use the name of God and the cover of the church to extort money from unknowing people. i know that people simply do not just suddenly out of the blue believe in someone whom they cant even remotely identify with, furthermore, that someone is like the empty air.


and i know too that people are just not interested in 'this kind of stuff'. and by 'this kind of stuff', they mean it as religious and extremistic. generally, people think different religions have different viewpoints and so they, who stand on the neutral sides, naturally think that they have no need at all to speak of to turn to a religion for spiritual guidance. unless something really tragic and unfortunate strikes them, they would forever be sitting on the fence, having their own freedom in their own world which their will and the rest of the world governs what they do.


this 100k thing is not just about 500o ppl going around and seeing that they like the sight of this person or seeing that this person seem gullibble then they decide to try their 'luck' and give it a shot, to see if this person would fall into their traps, just one of the many many activities the church have every year so that unsuspecting people and people who have no minds of their own would be conned into.


would anyone believe that we genuinely want to just simply bless people? yes, we are in no postitions to bless people since we dun hold that much of a power. it is god whose heart is always for the needy and poor who led our church into this 100k blessing. and we are not asking for 20 blessings each either. God is visiting this nation and by that i mean that the kingdom of God is near Singapore. ask other christians and they too would say this since all 120 and sth churches in singapore are currently praying for the revival of singapore.

there can be needy and poor people around us and u wun even know it. it might even surprise u to find out that ur close fren has been hiding a dark secret which he can't tell anyone. well, that sounds dramatic but what i mean is that people, even people at our young age, can have problems of their own. whether be it family or relationship problems. these could be things which they dun want other ppl to know, things they would rather hide and solve themselves.


sometimes it's just difficult to ask for help. we humans are just soooooo prideful. pride just gets in the way of alot of things.. no one is going to think dat this person is weak cos he asked for help.. on the contrary i think they might even see it as a good thing since coping up all ur sad/angry/hard feelings is like making a fiery volcano, which is just waiting for the time to explode and shock everyone. well, i may be unrealistic as most ppl would confide in their closed frens should they have a problem or they have sth unhappy to talk abt..

well. let me say sth which is the plain truth but ppl just think nothing of it.

u can't see God.. He doesn't even talk.. so how are u going to be convinced that He does exist?


have you heard or read about any near-death experiences in which the victims went to heaven and saw for themselves a bright light?

have u heard of any stories like God giving miracles to the people who are so desperately in need?


have u heard of many miracles and healing done by God..


there are evidences proving His existence and He's greatness... but ppl dun just want to be called a fool having blind faith, which is believing in sth which ppl can't see, which has subtle means of staying hidden. also, for what reasons should they turn to a religion? dat would be like not so cool and they would be like different from the people they hang out with..


well, if God can be seen by ppl so easily then there would be alot of ppl dying every day. and if ppl believed in God because they could see Him, there is real, concrete proof that He is indeed around us, then wouldn't ppl be going to heaven always and then salvation would be like not sth precious anymore... ha, i guess i dun make much sense to non-believers....


ok, the 100k blessing = free prayers for ppl who have needs in their lives. for a month, we would be praying every single day for the ppl who accepted God's blessings. and it's totally free. and u have nth to lose. and it doesn't matter if u dun believe in God because we're the ones who believe in Him and we're the ones who asked u in the first place. so, yeah.


the blessings available (sounds like a menu)


1) health
2) protection
3) inner peace
4) family harmony
5) financial freedom
6) progress in career
7)friendships and relationships
8) wisdom and intelligence
9) direction for the future
10) forgiveness
11) eternal life
12) fullness of the holy spirit


hmm, the last 2 points make no sense whatsoever to most ppl. anw, the point is that it's free (singaporeans seem to think that they have to give some sort of things in return for this unreal and weird gestures). no strings attached. much as we would like to, we would not bug or force the entire kowledge of the bible onto u. just to bless, what is there to be suspicious about?


common test is coming. we students at jj really have it good. an entire month later than our peers. is dat good or bad? i honestly dunno.
