Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

HELLO ALL!!!!
Sherrie here. This post is for those who can't read the MMS I sent out! K it's quite long and the original sender sent it in MMS form, and I simply forwarded it, so yeah.
It's a testimony from Nikki in level 4, and some of you may not have received it, but it's REALLY REALLY awesome so I wanted to share it with you guys. Nikki writes:
Hey beloveds! My chi tcher shared this testimony to me and i felt very encouraged by it. Wanna share it with you guys and hope you get blessed too. :) when her daughter was sitting for her o lvl maths paper, she suddenly had a very serious migraine. It was so serious that she could not read the questions or think properly. She became very panicky and started praying to God for help. After which, she began writing whatever things that enter her mind. On that day, she went home crying badly as she knew the importance of maths in her admission to jc/poly. My tcher prayed with her and both of them submitted the papers into Daddy's hand. Guess what! When the daughter received her o lvl result, she got an A1 FOR HER MATHS PAPER!!!(it's impossible for her to score A1 without God since she could not even think properly and read the questions!) THIS IS YOUR DADDY GOD! This is how much HE LOVES YOU and WANTS YOU TO GET A1S FOR Os! After hearing the testimony, Daddy told me that it's not about how much you have prepared yourself for or not about how much you practised your TYS. It's about submitting the papers to Jesus, allowing Him to do the papers through you and watching Jesus giving you the victory. Guys, before entering the hall, spend your time with Him. Submit your papers to Him and be His pen holder during the exam. Don get me wrong, i'm not saying that you no need to study for Os! do your part and God will do the rest! :D
Haaaaa AWESOME RIGHT!?!? I kept reading it again and again, it's so beautiful. God really works in mighty and wondrous ways which we dunno huh! Anyways the testimony is quite long and I don't have unlimited sms so you can see why I didn't sms it out..
Hope you've been blessed though!! Ask everybody to come and read ok!? And I mean EVERYBARDY! :DD
Keep flowing in the Spirit! Listen to sermons cos FAITH COMES BY HEARING! Jesus is Lord over our exams amen? (:
Love, Sherrie

Hey beloveds,
Really miss ya all lotsa! (:
Grace!
I love this quote which my friend realised. It must have been a revelation for her. Because it is for me. Hope you will be blessed by it too.
GRACE in short is RACE and shorter is ACE.
Gracewill cause you to ace anyrace in life!
You are more than a conqueror in Christ.
You are the righteousness of God in Christ.
You are destined to reign in Christ.
You are the head and not the tail.
You are the beloved in whom the Lord is most pleased with.
You are His child.
Loves.

Accepting My Design TGIF Today God Is First Volume 2, by Os Hillman 09-01-2009
"Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use?" (Rom 9:21).
My wife and I like to go to movies. She often comments about the lips of beautiful actresses: "Check those lips out! Boy, God sure short-changed me in the lip category," she laments. She has always felt her lips were too thin. Her girlfriends find her concern humorous and often kid her about it.
Have you ever wished that God made you differently? Perhaps you wished you were more athletic or could have a totally different career. Or perhaps you wished you were prettier or taller or even have a different nose.
God made every person differently and for different purposes. Not everyone is made to be in the public eye. Some are made to serve behind the scenes. It is important to know and be at peace with how and why God made you. Paul tells us in Romans that we are all crafted out of the same clay. There is no one molded and shaped like you, No one has the exact personality as you. Your DNA is one of a kind.
God uses the common to produce the uncommon. No matter how inferior you may feel you are in a particular area, God desires to use you for His purposes. Your unique qualities are made to fit with the way He plans to use you for His purposes. This is why we must accept our uniqueness. We want His power to be manifested in our uniqueness.
Thank God today for the way He made you.

Bride that can't stop laughing during vows
Just wanna share this, it's so cute! The guy is so nervous he starts by putting the ring on the wrong hand. Then he says "waffle-y" instead of "lawfully wedded wife". And the woman is so cute, she just laughs and laughs...haha:D
Psalm 1 - A psalm of blessings
1 Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
We meditate on God's word...
3 He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
Therefore, we shall be as stable as a tree, deeply rooted in God's love. The river streams forth peace, where the tree just absorbs lotsa, lotsa water (peace) for photosynthesis!And our fruits SHALL be good results, family blessings and much more favours in every area of our lives. Good health is ours, and we shall not perish but have everlasting life(John 3:16).
4 The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the ungodly shall perish.
<3<3<3 Have a blessed week of holidays:)

Our sins are our qualifications for going to the throne of Grace.
The difference between the holy textbook and school textbooks: The Word enters our hearts(and stays there), while other info enters our brains(and sometimes leaves there as well). :p (no wonder studying seems harder yeah...)
We're gonna embrace studying!
Have a blessed week:)

"But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.” -Matt 9:13
I came across this in the bible and decided to look it up, cause I couldn't understand it. Then God led me to this website... http://epistle.us/articles/mercy.html
I thought it was really sweet and lovely:)
A brief summary: - The Pharisees were the self-professed "perfect" people. They served God, but in all the wrong ways. They led their lives to perfection, observing every law and commandment, believing to the extent that they were more perfect than Jesus lor. They decided that they were "righteous" enough to not need Christ's forgiveness and love.
- Matthew was a tax collector. Tax collectors were seen as sinners for they sometimes raised the taxes or stole for themselves. But Jesus chose to eat with the tax collectors and sinners. He came for the sinners. He came to save those people who acknowledged their spiritual poverty, and those who were hungry for spiritual knowledge; those who yearned to just receive from the abundance of God's grace. Oh it's also in Hosea 6:6..."For I desire mercy and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings."
Because we are sinners made righteous by the blood of Jesus; not by worth(ours), but by birth(Jesus). Jesus came specially for us. He doesn't desire any sacrifice from us, not to follow the laws to perfection, but to just let Him love us and yield to Him completely, to just get to know God more and more with each passing day of our lives. Jesus said, "For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." It's such a blessed and easy life we're leading with Jesus, yeah... We are so loved lor:)
Sometimes, I feel that when I get to know my friends more and more, we start to see more of their strengths and their weaknesses as well. I rmb Coach Pat saying before that the one closest to you just gets the most rubbish from you... But each day, as we get closer to God with each coming day, we just get to see more and more of His strengths and goodness. Because our God is perfect. He never fails and He has no weaknesses. He's not going to get angry with us, reprimand us, or nag at us, even if we just make mistakes in life. Because to Him, we're like Jesus. We're every bit as beautiful and awesome as Jesus. And He loves us ALOT ALOT ALOT! And I thank God for this preferential treatment in our lives:)
Daddy loves us loads:) seet

Hi everyone, the final version of the RADICAL t-shirt has been completed, with a few disappointments, but thank God its still done!
Apparently you guys have seen the original, but the shirt printers all say they cannot make that blood-flare thing behind the cross (yeah so sad rite) and there are some issues with font sizes.
---------- ---------- The final version is here! Place your orders people! We have to inform the shirt printer alr!
Working 3am into the night yesterday to finish it haha, hope you guys like it!

hi guys/girls. Hope you all had a great time at the study seminar. here are the notes on the seminar.
firstly, we must remember that people in the world study and labor because of fear. they are driven by fear. but WE, children of God need not fear, because we know our future is decided and God says that it is good :) but the reason we study and labor is because we know that God has given us that platform to shine and to outshine others. we are fight FROM victory and NOT for victory.
numbers 13:31-33 the israelites saw themselves small that's why their enemies see them small. we must not belittle ourselves, we are blood-bought, precious and victorious. 'do i see o levels/n levels as a zone for me to reign over?' whenever we look to the Lord, we have a different spirit, one of boldness and full of courage. when we study, actually God is equipping us and training us for better things, his purpose.
ephesians 2:4-10 have a high expectation of the richness of his grace. our Daddy is abounding in grace and he is almighty. he loves outside time and it's not the amount of time left that matters. he can multiply it and give us length of days! see the promises of God and know them well, because it belongs to us!
when studying, we must have a VISION because what we see will be manifested in our lives. have a good vision of success, whenever i feel demoralized, let that vision refresh me all over again.
romans 8:30 we are justified and God will surely glorify us, glorious things will come to pass because his wood declares so. God wants to prosper me and bless me!
studying tips : 1) purpose, plan and pattern -time table (dont be too charged up, but have a structure) -quantity ( ask God for wisdom amd strength to help me study) -realistic ( include time needed to gear up) -study by the hour (go by the 60 mins chunk) -time wasters (dont waste too much time doing other stuff, focus during that 60 mins and take a short break after that) - momentum and speed (once the momentum is there, keep going and dont let that flame die down)
study environment -own habitat - quiet environment -uncluttered environment -full spectrum of light -good ventilation -greenery -no distractions -windows -pastel colors -instrumental music (try not to listen to music with lyrics because sub consciously, we are actually concentrating on the lyrics than on our work)
1 john 2:27 i'm studying with my Lord and the anointing in me will teach me ALL things, not one but ALL
2) momentum and might -sleep early -rest and nap -recreation (when i plan to study, do it with all my might. when i play, give it my best)
here are some verses coach hee hjun gave us 2 conrinthians 5:21 proverbs 10:6-7 proverbs 11:8 proverbs 11:23 proverbs 11:30 romans 1:16 phillipians 4:13 Hebrews 13:6 1 corinthians 1:24-25 1 corinthians 9:24, 26
have a great time studying with jesus, he loves us dearly (:
Thank GOD for JORDAN and his sis. This is the new design for the Tee-Shirt:D..and will be using this!
