watch the watch...

yup... this is what i got Lynda for V-day! of course, she chose it. She has great taste! I've learnt to acknowledge that ... yup it's true .... after all, she did choose me ... LOL! woohoo!

Valentine's Day ...yes!

I am the owner of this beautiful timepiece! woo-hoo!! YES!
My beloved wife Lynda 'forced' me into the Vincent watch shop in Compass Point and we started looking around. Shortlisted 2 pieces but eventually chose this beauty.
It's my first leather watch ever. Love the brush gold and black combo classic blend.
hmmm.... Thank you sweetie for this watch, really love it!

So what did i get her for V-day? Almost got a necklace pendant, then it was a watch at the same shop - but my dear wife couldn't decide today, maybe tomorrow (actual V-day) we'll come across something that'll take her breath away... of course yours truly has already done that, i meant something else as in a gift ... ha!

my V-day message to her...
" To my darling princess, I love you! You're a gift from God that I'm forever grateful and rejoicing about. My best friend and confidant, you mean the world to me :)"


And to our beloved blog readers, how did your v-day go?

Prayer Meeting hi-jacked!

Last night's prayer meeting was a totally new experience! The first prayer meeting of the year and what a glorious way to start the year.
Guan was about to lead us in opening prayer and i was playing the guitar when we entered into a time of praise. the level of praise went higher and higher and higher and it was like heaven opened above us and the Spirit outpouring onto us like a waterfall. There were prayers, prophecies, praise unpon praise, worship like never before. There were only about 15 of us but as we worshipped, what i heard was like a choir, there was an extra sound behind around among (i don't know how to exactly describe it) us, it was like a deep rumbling sound, like a roar! Could this be the sound of heaven? I wouldn't be surprise if it was.
As worship went up to our great God, the stirring got stronger and stronger. I heard the LORD say "Build me an altar! Build me an altar!" I spoke forth the word, and we continued to revel in the presence of the Most High. New songs came forth from our lips, old paradigms got shifted, new wineskins were created to take in the new wine, eyes begin to see into the heavenlies (the throne room),... oh it was truly amazing!
And believe it or not for that 1 solid hour i played only 2 chords - D, G. Tried adding in 'A' but it didn't fit the atmosphere somehow. In fact the devil tried stopping it by bursting a string on the guitar, but thank God for my sis Rachel, she sensed something was wrong and passed me the other guitar. Thanks chere!

I believe this is only the beginning of things to come, there will be more. I want more.
I desire to see the mercy seat built among the believers as we gather and worship come to such a level with greater manifestation of the Spirit that people will fall to their knees in repentence, healings take place, miracles spontaneously happen, pre-believers are drawn to Christ and salvation comes to the whole household - GOD BE GLORIFIED!!!
Amen!

6th Anniversary

We celebrated our 6th anniversary on 6th dec 2008. 

I thank God for Josh, my dearest husband, who has been such a tremendous support in my journey of hearing God's call for my life and moving into my destiny. Josh is my best friend, whom God has given me on earth. 

I thank God also, for His miraculous way in bringing us together and now binding us evermore strongly in the synergy He has created in our marriage. The way He's leading us now and holding us together in Him is a testimony itself. 

Thank You Father God.

First Day Of Convention

We arrived at Port Dickson on sunday late evening. The next morning, after breakfast, we went to the beach with the Tans, before the itenarary for the convention began. And I'm glad we did for the following reasons: 
1. When convention began, we hardly had time to relax with kids, except for one short swim in the pool which we managed to take time off for on wed. 2. It was a great time with the kids and real good friends :) And Skye totally enjoyed himself while Trinity managed to go greater depth in sea, much credit goes to Daddy.3. If it was not for the beach trip, the following experience would not have happened.

Here it is: That night, while bro and sis were settling in bed, they were chatting about the beach, and Trinity was telling her bro that she was afraid of the waves. Then Skye asked me, "Mommy, is there anything to be scared of?" I told him no, and explained about how when we have Christ within us, there is nothing to fear and how God is bigger than the boogie-man (from veggietales). After explaining, I asked him if he wants to invite Jesus into his heart. And he said yes! I was so surprised that I asked him again. Then I called Josh into the bedroom and there and then, we said the prayer with Skye asking Jesus to come into his heart. About 2 years ago, when Skye was 3, he told me he one morning, "i want Jesus in my heart" and I prayed with him. But i think this time round, he understood what it meant more in depth. And i was surprised because he had been kind of "goofy" about serious stuff.Praise the Lord! He was working even in the life of my son during the convention! And today, he was humming a warfare/victory song that we sang in convention, which we have totally forgotten the song since it was unfamiliar to us. I thank God for my amazing son :)

International Convention.

It was really an amazing time at the convention! Personally, I learnt a lot, from the worship, the teaching sessions, the running of the convention in its administrative and logistic sense. 

During the convention, we shared a two-rooms apartment with Dad and Mom (my in-laws). And I'm very appreciative of them and how they let us have the room with the attached bathroom so that we can join the two beds together for my family (since in the other room, it was not possible to link the two bed up). I really appreciate them and I thank God for such supportive and understanding in-laws and spiritual parents. Last sunday, I had the chance to give both of them a hug and tell them I appreciate them.  

Also, this is the first time we had a church convention with our "twins" - Caleb and Debbie. During an altar call (for those under age 35), Debbie took care of Skye and Trinity for the entire time, and Josh and I had to chance to really soak in the presence of the Lord together for the first time with no worries! And watching how Caleb leads in worship challenged me to re-think about being involved in worship again. It re-ignites the passion of abandoned worship in me. Mmm...must pray. 

And of course, I am glad that Josh was with me throughout the entire experience. It is beyond words what the Lord has been in our lives, how He is bringing forth "the two shall become one" synergy. Many a times, Josh has been there to catch me before I fall and support me while I cling onto God when things get tough. He is the best!
