Easter week

Easter week, it's a memorable week to be. many ppl might not even know the true reason behind the celebration of Easter. On Tuesday, we had an evangelistic cell dinner at second floor in church. The title was unleavened bread so we had capati?? i think so... haha... i ate a lot and drank a lot... SO FULL.... well not only eating. I start of with an icebreaker asking everyone to share either some funny experience or what they would like to do if they were given a chance... I just share one of the funny one, well there was a guy who took his dad's car keys and wanted to drive the car at his age of ten... of course ended up, his friends helping him to steer and move the car by pushing ( he doesn't even know how to steer the wheel that time). It was funny but I find it more shocking than funny...

After dinner we gathered together again as usual and Arthur had a sharing on the Gospel. It was good as he shares that we are like a boat that chained towards TITANIC and we know we are going to our doom... I think he did a great job.

After the evangelistic dinner it's Thursday prayer meeting that changed into a cinema outing. not really outing... we watched "Passion of Christ" in church... We put it up with the LCD and making it looks like the Cinema... Well this is my second time watching it and as usual I cried again but not as bad as the first time. I saw one guy sitting at the front row tearing too.

I was sitting next to a little girl and she kept asking me questions and I have to explain to her. She asked a lot of funny questions but also She asked something like, "Why Jesus didn't run away? Why he let them catch Him? Why He didn't speak up? Why the ppl want to kill Him if He's God? Why he has to die?" - the more she asked me the more I felt that Jesus' love for us is so great... He knows what is going to happen, He has the chance to run away, He has the chance to deny that He's God, yet He chose us. He chose to be put thru all the suffering and slashing and the CROSS. If I were to be put in His shoes, I would run away myself... no man could take all that suffering, it was indeed inhuman.

Easter Sunday, beside tearing down the altar as shared earlier, in church we had a little singing presentation. I was in the presentation as well and I should say that presenting and worship leading is very different thing. I felt a bit nervous in singing cause everyone looking at you and not the screen. Anyway we all pull thru and I hope they all enjoy our singing.

Well, yet another hectic week gone but it was the most wonderful week of the year so far... ;) bye

Praying in Cantonese, Salvation & Tearing down of altar

Well, I went to visit Cathy's mom with another sister, Patricia. Three of us is like close friends now. We went there to pray for the mother actually. I was given the honour to pray in cantonese... since Patricia said that she can't do it in cantonese... neither do I but then by God grace and wisdome the Holy Spirit gave me words to pray. It was a bit weird, cause I was translating the prayer from English to Cantonese... And i got stuck in the middle cause I couldn't translate the word "desperate" in cantonese... haha... and then I ended up asking Cathy's brother how to say it in cantonese... it was a bit embarrassing but I belief God will understand what I want to pray about... the cute thing is that Cathy's mom help me to pray abit too... she said, "Lo chau hui" means take it away. So I repeat after her.

After praying I told her mom that it is important that she should believe that God could help her in her situation cause it's no use if we pray and in her heart she doesn't believe that God will help her... so I told her not to lose hope and we all will be praying for her continuously.

It was amazing, I got to share in cantonese before and now pray in cantonese, God is amazing at giving words in time of needs... doesn't matter if my language sounds funny the important thing is the message is brought thru without misunderstanding... hehe ;)

Praise the Lord, last wednesday if I've not remembered wrongly. It's during the easter week, one of the Chinese Pastor from FGT , Pastor Irene, had gone to Cathy's house to share the gospel in cantonese to the mother and she accepted the Lord! It was really a miracle to Cathy and she's so happy about it. When I received her sms in the office I wish I could jump up and down cause I was so happy for her too... I nearly teared when I saw the sms, guess when ppl are too happy they teared... I manage to hold on to the tears... I don't even feel sleepy anymore after that cause of the good news... God is so Good

Well on Easter Sunday, Pastor Irene and her husband and another brother from FGT help out to tear down the altar in Cathy's house. Representative from KCC is me and Patricia. This was my first experience of tearing down the altar. It seems that Pastor Irene and friends are well equiped and experience... they drove a 4WD to her house to take down the altar. We started of with a prayer of cleansing and then the job started. It was like shifting... we took out all the things that has something to do with offering to idols including the burning incense and the statues, and also some decorations in the house that looks like altars. It was amazing that there were only two men but they are strong men... I just help to throw some rubbish away but it was a good experience... Cathy even boiled a pot of chinese desert for us and it's yummy.

Cathy's Testimony

Well, once week after the crying prayer meeting, I've got a half good news from Cathy after that. She told me that the doctors had been delaying in releasing the report for her mom. They suspect that they might have diagnosed her wrongly earlier. So it should be a mistake that they say it's cancerous. Well, they shouldn't have scared ppl like that... oh man... well at least I rather they made a mistake than her mom really has cancer. They keep on stressing that those doctors (many of them) were just saying that the possibility is there but they didn't confirm it to be cancer... so in a sense they are like trying not to tell Cathy that they mentioned it was cancerous. Hmm... so the professor is still delaying the report and just give some medication for her mom to take. Cathy's going to take her mom to another hospital for checkup and advice

Well isn't it a blessing? When I told the news to Arthur, he gave a great yes with a punch... that was so cute of him... it makes me smile when I remember his actions. I was really happy for Cathy... Thank God... He's a good God!

Prayer Meeting

Can't remember when, I think it's a few weeks back. At prayer meeting I was paired up with Cathy to pray for one another. It was an amazing experience. As I had shared earlier, Cathy's mom was suspected to be diagnosed with cancer and she's been having a hard time taking her mom in and out of the hospital for check up and stuff.

As I was holding her hands, i felt a strong sorrow in my heart... embarassingly, I started crying... oh man.... ;[ I was emotional. It was like I could feel her hurt in her heart... I started sobbing and trying to pray for her at the same time... and I ended up making her cry too... hehe but then I could feel a great release in her heart as I prayed for her cause she prayed a relief prayer after that and she looks a bit cheerful.

The Holy Spirit is amazing that day... once again I felt like a small kid crying but it renews my heart and refreshes me. I dunno the Holy Spirit is refreshing Cathy or refreshing me. Sometimes it's amazing that God help us to feel each others hurt... and to be able to cry with a brother or sister in Christ is really a blessed thing.

Not to forget, my eyes were a bit swolen after the crying... ;p and I went back home and had a good nite sleep... crying help us to sleep well, I guess. ;)

EE Started

Well, after chinese new year I'd been busy with assignments and just find some free time to blog about what I had been doing for the pass 1 1/2 months.

As the title says, EE started and it's time to go out to share the good news to friends and families. Amazingly, I was informed by my pastor saying that I should be back in EE training for training the trainees this year.

Supposedly, the agreement is that I'll be an associate trainer for this year but ended up at the first class I found out that I've been promoted to be a trainer... OMG... Well, it gave me a bit of a shock cause I wasn't so prepared. I'm more nervous for being a trainer than being a trainee... maybe last year my EE partner Steven is good at sharing... haha he do the talking much of the time... but then I'm still confident to share the gospel cause i recite it every nite (last year) ;p

The Fifth lesson has ended before Easter, and many things happen to my group... oh dear... it's really difficult for me cause the devil has been causing a lot of problem to my team... well i believe other teams will have their problems too.

Cathy and Dozie were my trainees. It has been difficult for both of them during the pass EE weeks. We couldn't find prospects and Dozie had a difficult time with his college assignments and lecturer and Cathy is even worst, her mom was suspected to be diagnosed with cancer.

It was difficult for both of them even for me... of course it's discouraging to see my group has a missing member every week... so far my group have not been a complete group that could go out OJT together. Well but I'm bless with going out with other groups and experience doing questionaires and also something funny happen, our prospect was stolen. o.O

I just hope that both of them could cope with the EE assignments and also with memorising the cards... oh God... Help me to help them and help them to help me...

But one thing is for sure... nothing could stop me from completing this year EE... I won't give up on both of them cause I know they are trying their very best as well. ;) God will make a way!
