Testimony by Chen Soon Fei


This testimony is by a gud friend of mine from CF. I just copy and paste after his acknowledgement. Thanks buddy =D. Its a he btw, to those that dunno.

"As some of you may know, I really wasnt living much of a Christian life before the camp. Ask any of my friends, there would be at least one curse or swear in every of my sentences, and worse, my heart was really dull and cold towards God.

During the first day of camp, there was a part of me that did not really feel like going, but anyway, I told myself to just go with an open heart. During the first session itself, I was really touched by God... so much so that I felt really lead to just walk up to the altar and when the pastor prayed for me, I really broke down and cried...a lot. I could tell you guys that camp really just blessed me and brought me back to Christ, I am really thankful for the Lord for His faithfullness and His mercy and grace.

So, how have I changed after camp? I hardly ever swear anymore, and am trying to stop completely! I could get along with my parents really well after the camp. God is just so amazing and is working in me every single day, and I just want to encourage you all to just hang on to Him and never let go no matter what trials or tribulations that may come in your way, and to just stand up and walk with Him again after falling, cause He will never let you go and He will ALWAYS be there to welcome you back, amen? :)"

AMEN =D!! Sometimes we hear testimonies from far away or years older/younger than us. This is a testimony of my OWN friend, whom i have seen with my OWN eyes and talked with my OWN mouth.

I guess when it comes to changing, the first question is: Are we willing to change?

The next question would be: Are we willing to let Him change us?

Just askin God to change us when we ourselves are not whole heartedly agreeing is not gonna change anything. We may be tired, God did not say "Do not rest", instead He says He will give us rest and protect us as we rest (Psalms 23:1-4). Importantly, like what Soon Fei says..

NEVER LET GO!! HANG ON TO HIM!!

Disturb Me, Lord

To grow cannot be by faith alone. It must come with action. But action and drive based on what??

If its action just for the sake of it, it is like merely an empty shell walking on earth. However, BECAUSE I LOVE GOD, I WILL do it for Him. I WANT to do something for Him. I WANT others to know His unconditional love which no other being (mortal/immortal) can express. I used to play this song often, its words can really mean a lot.


Send Me - Planetshakers

Send me I will go
Send me I will
To this city, to this nation
And to the nations of the world

Send me I will go
Send me I will go
I will proclaim the truth
That Jesus Christ is Lord

I stand before You pleading from my heart
That by Your Spirit You would set me apart
To bring good news and liberty
To see this nation on its knees

I cry out for every family
You'd open blind eyes and set people free
That as a nation we would turn back to You
And see revival sweep this land

As we humble ourselves
And seek Your face
Fall on our knees
Turn from our ways

You will hear our cry
Wipe our sins away
Come and heal our land we pray


Wont it be awesome if we all could fly as one, with one mindset - to do what God calls us to do.
