2009 of wonders

Hello everyone Watchnight's over, and reality is all of us have to go back to School, Work or whatever. However sad that is, we can all still look forward to weekends alright.
2008 has been a year of great things, though probably at times things may not be as good but let's just pray hard for a good 2009. It's been really great spending the last day of 2008 with you all, and not to mention the first day of 2009, and I'm certain that it's much better than any lame countdown parties (though we didn't really countdown but it was still a blast) hahahahaha.
Anyway just before I go back into The Terrifying Territory Across Singapore Mainland by Boat for another week, was thinking that Yesterday's Net Lesson on Great Faith was really good esp to start off the new year in our schools. Something about not letting your past experiences hinder your faith or something along that line. Along with something that God sorta spoke to me about at Edge last week... thought it would be good if I could share it with you all.

Even as we go our different routes to school, remember that our goals and aims are pretty much similar - Taking the city for God! In the different schools we are in, continue to be a Light for God that shines bright and don't let the flame die down literally. Esp when we go back to school and the environment is not as ideal as a church environment is.. guard your hearts like the bible says

Above all else guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life. Proverbs 4.23

Stand strong on Godly foundations, I mean.. If we are doing things the way God wants us to be, the devil won't be too happy so he will come and attack... SO GUARD your hearts well, pray and seek God even before you go to school, on the way there to school, say a prayer to ask God to bless your day. It makes a difference.. at least to me.. when I start a day with a prayer things really go much better and easier for me.. as compared to a day which i may have been lazy to say one.. Esp when most of you are fresh products of YouthCamp!
Oh yeah. On a sidenote. Must stay positive admist all the possible tests homework you have to complete. (though it's difficult) but you all have this whole year to practice about being positive about homework HAHAHA.

I know you guys will be Awesomezzxzxzxz Peeeeopleeezxzxz in school as a Living Testimony for our Mighty God!
Let's count on God for a good 2009! Let this song be an encouragement to you and always remember that you're not alone in this fight for God!

When the darkness tries to hide my way
Your word is the light that guides my faith
I will trust in You
I will trust in You

When my heart is weak
And I have lost my way
I will lift up my eyes
And choose to say
I will trust in You
I will trust in You

I can do all things through Christ
I can move a mountain if You are the strength of my life
I can do all things through Christ
If You are the strength of my life

In your presence I find strength renewed
I find courage to stand and a hope that is new
I will trust in You
I will trust in You

I can do all things through Christ
I can move a mountain if You are the strength of my life
I can do all things through Christ
If You are the strength of my life

(+ the bridge that i really couldnt catch by ear)

Let's believe God for a 2009 of wonders - with Him as the strength of our lives! 2009 is gonna be one different and amazing year! Keep one another in prayer!

Eybeyb!
