Stumbled upon this whilst trying to find out about some stuff. Makes for an interesting read, on a bit of the background on some things. =)

Ministry Matters
Ministry, does matter.
Be it in regard to non-believers, or professing christians.
Ministry, does matter.
There's really a lot that I need to improve on, but thank God for His work in us.
Somehow (although I know it's just my sinful self), I've stopped loving people, friends and relatives in almost all of my circles, and have become a present day Pharisee, loving only truth in itself, but unconcerned with what God truly is concerned about.
So, if you want to help me, do ask me how am I in this area from time to time, ok? ;)
===========================
Thank God for a lot of things: PT, John Chapman(section on Influences on Sydney Anglicanism), Vaughan Roberts, the talks, the wonderful people who went for various reasons, and Christ, without whom many things, like this post will not exist.
The weekend was really wonderful, not only hearing God's word being preached, but also the chance to talk to a few about ministry, and to get to know people.
May we all continue to remind one another of the things that do matter, till the day He arrives, that we may continue to be vigilant in keeping the gospel that has been passed down to us, fulfilling the task given to us all.

Chappo~
Went for the Evening Expositions tonight with A, TYC, M, ZY, GV, talk was by John Chapman on the parables of Jesus, where he talked about Luke 12:1-21 ansd 22-48. Met (up with) many many people there also, including a "long lost friend".
First time hearing parables of Jesus being preached in such a way (thank God!), although I'm still pretty much interested to read up more about the part about (verse 10) blaspheming the Spirit meaning constantly denying His call to repentance to believe in Christ.
Am looking forward to going there again tomorrow... ^^

The world on marriage
If cute/pretty/handsome/smart (choose any combination of it), it makes the person a "natural" choice for a spouse.
Where fidelity is sidelined and promiscuous behaviour is increasingly being accepted, even here in Singapore.
Such is the ideas that bombard us all in this fallen world, and no one is spared as long as you're alive, whether male or female, young or old, even christian or not.
The results? Far too many to list...really too many. *sic*
Not condemning anyone, since we have no hope of our own, if not for God seeking us out, and also looking at where we came from, which exactly was this: our outright rebellion against God's rule, be it consciously or not.
But still...it'd be a wonderful thing if everybody lived our lives as we should be....from that day of judgement.
I myself am still trying to find out about and work out God's idea in terms of marriage, etc, that I may be able to continue to grow. But you who read this, single or not, if you've already given your lives to Christ, do try to find out if you've not already learnt yet (it certainly is very DIFFERENT from what we see, even today), and to continue in it if you've already had, giving thanks to God for the ability to trust in Christ in this area whilst being vigilant. If you're not a christian, do seriously consider the claims of Jesus Christ, as recorded in the bible, for yourself. Nobody knows how much time we all have left, before it's too late.

Appointment troubles
Even a handphone planner can't stop me from time planning clashes.
I conveniently forgot my school time table when it come to planning on my things to do for tomorrow, and hence, another thing to undo.
Duhh.....

Perspective
Thank God for the chance to talk, and the dinner today...
For it really put me back in perspective on what's important, not only in word, but also in my actions these past few weeks.
My cutting down of DotA starts now.
