Lord, i want You to use me MORE & MORE.I want to give You TOTAL surrender, give my all to You.
Use me so much more Lord.
Let me be stretched so much beyond my limits.
Less of me, more of You.
Test me beyond my limits, so I can rely on You for guidance rather than my own power.
I give my life to You.
Use it as You will.

You know, everytime i hear stories time and time again, that a youth is going in the wrong direction, it often impacts my heart alot. I guess it's due to the fact that i had a not-so-glamorous past, that i can actually relate to these youths, they "why" reason of them doing so.Why is the world such a screwed up place? Do the youths know what they are doing actually, or do they just follow blindly? Did they think about their future? Truthfully, in the past, i didn't think of my future, i didn't even think i was going to have a future. Life's just screwed up. But thank God Jesus came into my life, that he changed me, that i see the reason why i'm living here today, that i had a future in Him. Now, my future's bright, not because i'm special or anything of that sort, but becuase i have Jesus with me.
Teens smoke, teens shoplifting. It just hurts my heart so much. I really pray so much with all my heart, that Jesus would touch them, like how it touches me. I want to have the same heartbeat as Jesus, that my heart would break for whatever breaks His. And i know, deep inside, i'm feeling burdenful for these people. My heart's just feeling burdened and sorrowful. God, save them ! Let them not wonder around aimlessly in life, but Lord, let them have a future in you!
I just have a burden so deep for these people. God, please use me more ! Use me to let them know their purpose in this world. Use me more Lord. Let them know You are real, like how You showed in my life, be real in their lives too. I want to be used so much by You Lord !

Post-Camp Learnings... Continued.U know, i was just reflecting over camp again.
It's always easy to say, yet not do.
For some reason, during the whole time, i realised the things that impacted me the most.
1)Lunch,Dinner,2nd night free time:
The reasons i loved these few above was ready because i got to mingle with the leaders. Not just any hi-bye mingle, but really discussions with leaders, and fellow brothers and sisters all about questions regarding the kingdom of God. I learnt so much from every single leader, from the NS, to every single campus leader (mostly). Well, i really think all the leaders i talked to, ULs or CLs,i noticed one thing, they all had this conviction within them regarding the kingdom of God.
Well,especially after talking to Jeremiah and Lancaster, i can really see the conviction inside, for Men of God to rise up, for more men to take lead the kingdom of God. Men are created to Lead. The world's kinda screwed up, females are now taking lead. This was not what God had created. No offence to any sister who read, but it's only biblical for guys to take the lead, to start the charge. Not females. I'm not sexist. But God created Adam and Eve. Adam, then Eve. Not Eve then Adam. We need more biblical men in the world. Men that follow God.
2)Dream for the stars @ Henderson Wave
This actually taught me to dream. Not just dream. Visions for my campus, visions for my caregroup, visions for my sheep, and visions for my personal life. It was really a time when i gave it all to God, i told him, to just take charge. When there's total sacrifice, total surrender, only then God will take control fully. He dropped his word on me, and seriously, one word from God is greater than a million words from man. I felt it. God's presence was so distinct. Like what i was talking to Weihong, the leader of NYP during the walk of faith, "Leaders without vision will perish. How can you lead someone to somewhere you're not even sure where? One important thing for leaders to have is always a vision from God, a vision to know where God wants to lead you and your group".
One of the many things God dropped this in my heart was, The spirit of Jacob. Jacob wrestles with God. Truthfully, during day 1, i was having an inward spirit, not willing to be desperate to learn, not willing to share life. But God spoke to me, " Nigel, What are you doing? Why are you here? Is it a camp for learning or is it a camp to slack, then once out of it, there's no change?" With that, i knew i needed to change. God's words was like a double-edged sword, piercing my heart. It was from then, i told myself, step out of my comfort zone, learn from others while i can. Camp's not going to last forever. Learn as much, suck as much, be as desperate to learn and ask for blessings like how Jacob was desperate for God's blessings. God spoke to me, when my ears were aligned to Him, when i disregarded every single thing around me, God's voice just stood out so much. I saw the vision. I'm going to live this vision.
God just moved so much during the 3D2N , I really believe God will allow TP to grow to even greater heights. Men of God will grow, and more guys will start to know the love of God, the wonderful love.
TP-Genesis, let's really give our best now ! God's going to move no matter what it's just above if you're going to be in or out of the picture. For 1 thing i know, i'm going to be in ! I'm going to rebuild the walls. Who's with me?
Sunday, September 13, 2009, 10:22 PM
Hey people ! I'm here to post again! Well, recently, if you're a real stalker of mine, you'll start noticing that i've been missing for the past 3D2N. Well, during that stalker-less time, i was at the Polydins leadership camp !I tell you the truth, God did show up. And he was there in the camp to stir hearts, hearts like mine. Seriously, during this camp, i did alot of reflection, alot of thinking, more than on-the-bus kinda thinking, alot of being desperate to grow as well. I knew i wanted to get nothing other than the best. I wouldn't want to settle for second best.
You know one thing, that i loved the camp so much was being able to actually learn from the leaders in the camp. As a guy who has a dream& conviction to lead a caregroup soon (I pray ) this was actually a great and wonderful opportunity for me, to be able to learn from the leaders, the strengths and weaknesses, the good and the bad, the achievements and the failures. Behind every experience, there's just so much to learn. Thank God for helping me realize what i was here for, that i realize it's not just any old camp, but really a camp where people who want to rise up can get experience from. Smart people learn from their own mistake, smarter people learn from other people's mistake.
I wanna thank God for all the wonderful people, the wonderful leaders who opened their life up, so we're able to learn from them. I think I'm really convicted that God will do a powerful work in TP Genesis. I know it's not going to be any easy path, i know there will be obstacles, but God will not give us more than we can handle. He gives us problems to let us realize how powerful He actually is, it's just a reminder for us.
I really pray that more guys will start to have this same conviction as me, that guys were made to lead. Definitely. That i pray that guys will come to know the wonderful love of our Lord. You know, one thing sentence, If we do not win them over to the church, we'll definitely lose them to the world. How true is that.
I've just learnt so much during the camp. From what does it take to become a powerful leader, to every single experience, to what does it take to start a caregroup, to lead a caregroup, to grow a caregroup. To sum it all up, i think it's on this word called "Character"
Lord, i pray, let me have my own caregroup to lead, that Lord, let me be a man of leadership with love, a vision and influence. Let me learn to sacrifice for my people, to surrender my life fully to this calling. Lord, help me be faithful and righteous with the right motive and purpose. I give you thanks in advance, that i believe that You'll bless me, to equip and mould me for the works of Your kingdom. I give and surrender my life to You. Thank You Lord. Amen.

Hey people.You know, these few days were great, allowing me to get closer to the peeps in my group as well as God.
Today, while in the bus, i kept pondering on this words called " Purpose", " Motive"," Conviction"
What's my purpose of doing anything?
What's my purpose of wanting to rise up?
What's my purpose of wanting this and that?
Questions like this just kept coming. For some reason, i totally love long bus rides. Although at the end, your butt gets kinda suan, but i just love them. It's a time when i get to be silent, it's a time when i get to ponder about life and it's happenings. It's a time when i just get to be still before Him. It's a time when i can actually start thinking about everything's that happening.
Another word that came to me was " Worship". I love singing these songs of joy to Him. Whenever,He will just let peace rest upon my heart, as i know that He " has plans to prosper me and not to harm me". That's all I actually need. A comforting hand to just tell me " Nigel, everything's gonna be alright, cos I'm in control. Just don't
worry"
Long bus rides really make me think alot. Well, to end off this post, i just got 1 last thing to add. You know, couple weeks ago, this close buddy of mine,well, he said somewhat a quote, and today, this quote kinda ringed in my head, and after pondering, i so agree.
"Girls/Women will seem the most attractive only when they're following God with all their heart,mind, soul and strength.The moment they stop walking right with God is the moment when they don't seem pretty anymore."- Mr (i'm-gonna-keep-his-identity-a-secret-for-now)
This time, i pray with all my heart that my motive in what ever i do will be right. That also keep watch over my speech as i want it to lift up and not pull down. Lord, i know your perfect plan for me, and i don't wanna do anything that's out of your plan. A right thing at the wrong time is the wrong thing, so Lord, i pray with all my heart, that you take FULL CONTROL over my life. Let not any decisions i make be based on me, but You. Take full control Lord. Thanks for everything ! Amen.

For some reason, my mind just cant concentrate on my studies now. Apart from that, i'm looking and finding myself pondering on how faithful God is. God never shortchanges.God knows the best for you. Often, i find myself knowing this, but yet, often, it's harder to apply in life.Your head and heart will often be running in 2 different directions, and i often ask myself, follow my head, or follow my heart. I realise this is one of the things that i struggle most, that i'll follow my heart and not my head sometimes. Sometimes, i realise it's much easier following your heart than your head. But often, i see myself pushing myself to do what's most uncomfortable, because i don't want to serve God only "when i feel it" I took the first year half of my faith to understand this, that one don't serve based on their feelings. Emotions go up and down, but God remains faithful all the same.
God has been speaking to me alot these past few days, from the book of Nehemiah.
I came to realise what Nehemiah had did, with God, and in the chaos and the time of urgency, he managed to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem back. It's like the time of urgency we're in right now, that God was speaking to me," Would you want to see your campus in the state of Jerusalem, when the walls fell, or when the walls was rebuilded. You decide"
It just speaks alot to me.

I'm supposed to be studying now, the temptation of sleeping just keeps coming.It's 12.25 now, and i still have 2 1/2 more chapters to go.
Exams are in a couple hours time, yet i haven even finish revision ! God, i need your help so badly now, i need you strength so much now.
Exams are gonna be over soon, i'm looking forward, God, help me walk this period of my life for me, Lord, help take the driving seat as i complete these few days, that i see the end of exams coming, help me God. I need your strength so much.
I'm wishing it was holidays already !
Saturday, August 8, 2009, 3:25 PM
These few words are constantly pondering in my heart now: Conviction and Priority. What is your level of conviction? What is your priority in life? Is what are you doing now based on your feelings, based on your experience? Or is it based on God?I want to make decisions based on God. I want to grow, i want to rise up. I want to lead more people. I want to see more people cross the line of faith, to have a life-changing experience. I want to the TPG group to grow. I want us to hit 200. I want to be part of that 200, telling Him, i played my part.
All these can't be achieved, if it was merely based on human strength. BUT we have a God that overcame all, we have a saviour. I put my trust in Him that the above will come to pass. I will rely on Him. I'm gonna give my best to him. Hope peeps, what about you?

Hey peeps ! Yeah, i was actually quite impacted by what Pastor Jasmine said yesterday, that we are like a clay pot, holding a candle light inside of us, that our past is like the cracks within the pot. That when our past is not useless, but the more broken we are, more light of God will shine from within us. I really felt a God's presence linger over me for so long,that when i see myself, i see myself growing in so many ways i cant possibly imagine of. I often see myself that i tell myself that i'm not capable enough, that i'm never adequate to do His work. But i get reminded that it's not about me, but Him. I feel God's light shining, and i want be a testimony to the world that God is good.
Circumstances may fail.
Man may fail.
But God won't.
Our life station may change.
But my Faith won't.

Give thanks to the Lord ! I think God's really faithful,so faithful that i have so much to give thanks for
Every single thing in my life, it's not perfect, but things are improving.
I learnt and can testify, that when you put God first in your life, he will never short change us.
Circumstances still the same, but things are better because You showed more of You.
Thank You Lord.

Hey peeps !
U know, when i was at Jacob's today having the doctrine class today, i think God really touched my heart and allowed me to see in a new light.
Truthfully, at the start of the day, on the way to school, i was pondering about myself, that i looked at myself and thought through about who i am and what i'm doing. I began to look at myself, i saw so many weaknesses in me, so many areas of improvement, so many areas of inadequacy, so many areas of which i'm not capable enough. I began to ponder on these for the rest of the day, i kept thinking about how weak and sinful i am.
God changed my heart during worship today, when there was prophecy, i remember this one, that God uses the weak to shame the strong, that how God uses people, so that they can claim that it's by the power of God and not by their own strength. God then used that moment to change my perception, that it was never about me, it was about Him. It's not about how inadequate i am, it's about how capable is Him, and He's more that capable.
I remember, yesterday when i was talking to God, God reminded me about this : There's nothing too big God cant do, there's nothing too small that God won't do. I really think my life's a living testimony, that how through Him, we are more than conquerors. I want to be used more and more by Him !

Hey peeps !I think my life's pretty cool now ! Well, after this coming wednesday, i guess i'll no longer have any more projects for this sem, oh how much am i looking forward (:
My main purpose of blogging today was because of TP group Family Day at East Coast Beach. Firstly, before anything, i wanna give thanks to a couple of people. Firstly, it's still God, without Him, i guess we won't even be doing this today. The rest of the thanks goes out to my sub-head, Denise, as well as the rest of the Food Comm namely : Chester, Zhiwei, Jade, Nat, Peijun for making this a success. Okay, although there were couple screwups here and there, and we burst budget by a little, but overall, i think it's a job well done guys ! It's never a one-man show, we work as a team and we succeded as a team. (: Thank God for you peeps ! (:
I'm so looking forward to what God has in store for the future for me. (:

Hey peeeps!Yeah, school projects are starting to pile up now. ):
So many projects, so little time, i really need God's help.
I've got alot of preparation to do, with only like 4 more working days to spare.
On top of projects, i have quite a number presentation, and it means formal attire. AHHHHH.
I'm gonna stay up late the next few night, and i mean real later. Pray for me, i think i'll need it.
On the other hand, thing's are getting brighter. Looking forward to Family Day on Sunday, really want to use this as a break. F&B comm a little luan here and there, need to find places to cook and stuff, i pray we'll be able to find a venue soon too ! I'm kinda hoping Evo retreat's planning will not be as luan, i hope catering seems easier :)
I'm kinda quite excited what God has in store for the future. Thinking about it makes me all jumpy up and down in a good way. I want to know God's plans for me (:
