Friday, September 22, 2006 TOAST For My BREAKRHROUGH After 4 days of coming work late, TODAY(Friday) no more discouragement. Finally i made it at 8.48am. This success does not come so easy. I go thro so much struggler then i made it lei. Yesterday suppose to meet shepherd but she was cropped up with work. So i decide to meet jenny and ruth for praying session. We are give a BIG paper to write down our prayer request.Ha... i wrote 2 pieces( myself family friend . a bit KAISU.(when i think back now). The first prayer i wrote is I want to be punctual at work. Then Jenny told us that we pray for ourself for half hr then bring our request to the Lord. She said "We have so many requests are because our relationship is not strong with the Lord. "(this is true) Guess what we pray from 9.15 to 10.30 just for ourself. I met the Lord. My spirit is LIFTED UP..While i am praying God show me a vision. Thro this vision God tell me that i had be depending on my strength to be early for work. I cant much achieved. I also want to please man to be on time. That why i am so discouraged when i cant make it. God promise me that on Friday i will be on time. He ask me to please HIM instead of man. So i said Yes Lord. help me please. TOday, my alarm(hp one) rang at 7.15am. I am too tired. so I turn to 7.30. It rang again. I stop it. Then i tell God. SORRY Lord, I really cant make it. I gave up. i want to sleep Lord. Next the hp rang again. I think it is alarm clock so i ignore it. Then It rang again. I took it up and saw is berber calling me. So i pick up the call. She say "Ah-Yan wake up now. Go and wash up." My spirit is not willing, but my boby just walk down and took the towel and go to toliet. I was so Amaze by what the Lord had gone. God promises is YES and Amen! I made it by His GRACE. Ber Ber is my Angel....... I become cry baby again after reading her email. Didnt know u have a tough week. Actually, Wednesday morning holy spirit prompt me and asked me to sms u and tell u that "God love you and He cares about you and your family salvation", but somehow, i ignored the holy spirit prompting. Cos after using my common sense to analysis this, i felt there is no need to do so. And i felt is a bit mushy to say this in the early morning too. But yesterday after reading ur blog, i feel so bad and regretted for ignoring the holy spirit prompting. :"( If i really sms u, at least I can make u feel a littie bit better or even maybe can brighten up ur day with the sms. Heee.. I have learnt a lesson now. Never ignore the holy spirit prompting. No matter u think is neccessary or unneccasry! Just do it!!! :D God care for me. So God also care for YOU!!

Thursday, September 21, 2006 This week is a DEFEATED week for me. Also i am hurt by 2 person sharing. This week , my focus is be punctual for work. On sunday, i lay on bed at 11pm. But i sleep only at 1am. OOhhh..... On monday i reached office at 9.10am consider late. (but still in grace period.) I was on bed everyday 11pm. But i still cant reach office by 9.00am sharp. Mon :9.10am Tues :9.09am Wed :9.11am Thur :9.18am The consequences was still they same. TOO many PPl concern abt my puncuntality. I dun want to be a stumbling block to other. I got stress too in the mean time. So many eyes are looking at me. I feel so discourage because the comment they gave really not pleasing to the ear. But i really try to adjust. But i always could wake up at 7.30. Always 7.45 then wake up. Help me Lord! Another area i got defeated is the area of losing weight. I was doing well 2 week ago. But i lose my self-control since last week for sis came back. I eat a lot this week. All health or unhealth food just put into my stomach. I gain back the same weight again. YC said i will not be successful in losing 5kg in 3 mth. Oh no..... He maybe right. But if i dun lose weight my mum will not be one step closer to GOd. Lord help me to be caution is eating and excersing. I am a cry baby ba. I think i shared a few time that i gan dong till cry. But all this tear is fill with joy. This few day, i cried in my heart so much so much. All the tear al shed is because i am very sad, hurt, and discourage. Never expect this things to happen. The lord have a purpose for it. This week i want to give thank to God for one thing. I want to thank God who send pris to give me a morning call on Wed. I just tell her i hope to go work on time. then She give me a morning call. I did not request for that. So when i recieve her call i thought she got something to tell me. But she said i call u just to wake u up. I am very touch lor for her gesture. Thank God for her.

HEEEE............. Just pass by him only. Pass by the tunnel of our history background. It a bit dark and crowded with ppl hardly squeeze in. Got to see more clearly because zhixia left early so on the way slow down our pace to take a closer look on them. A good time to appreciate our 15 yr history. Wanted to take some photo but no camera. Guess i got cry in the service a not? ha....NO tear trolling down but Almost la. When the stage HISTORY MAKER Light up, follow by testimony, dance, 100 pp Choir.... All the memories just flood in.

In front of them are full of ppl waiting for them to recieve ballonn sulping from them.This 4 person look panic becasue the demand of ballon is high. Yin look a bit calm. Joe a bit lose. Lay look a tired and sweating ba. Darren like had use up all his strength to blow the balloon le. I stand by the side to look at them. Wanted to offer help. Hee..... Nothing much i can do. I just got a packet of tissue for them. In case they need it to wipe their face ma. A bit heart pain to see them so tired but also fill with joy in my heart that they are serving the church. Why i am GAN DONG? This 4 person stories show me that Jesus is real in their lives. Jesus give them a more purpose lives.
2.) I have a friend Zhixia. I am glad that she came and sat beside me. I meant so much to me. I am also happy to see her kept on smiling. Ha... She said that she enjoy every single presentation from our church. NO regard coming. Wow! Priase the Lord! MY prayer to the Lord Lord, continue to use me to be a HISTORY MAKER. Lord, i want to do something GREATER on my 29 yrs old. Start preparing me ba. Lord, the service is abt ppl responsing to become a member to a church. God, i dun know how u are going to do it.

Tuesday, September 12, 2006 Today i am late for work AGAIN. I am strugglering with this issue for sometime. I knew a lot of ppl are looking at my puntunality. Last time i used to punch card. If i am late, my pay will be deducted. But now i got promoted (no need to punch card)so pp expect me to be on time. I step into office at 9.15am(normally is ard this time.), sat in front of my desk. Then i heard this "YOU ARE LATE! NOW No need to punch card le hor......." I stare at her with a speechless look. I kept slient. Deep in my heart i was angry and hurt. Why did she said this to me. I treat her as friend. Friend should be encouraging one another not pulling me down. Hmm.... feel so down to start my day like this. Reflection. Is true that i am late. This is because i slept late most of the time. I was angry and hurt as my spiritual man is not fed, that why cant give forgiveness so fast. I am sorry LOrd. My prayer is Lord, help me to overcome this area. . Shi Yan at 4:34 PM

Saturday, September 09, 2006 Today is Jacq & Eugene wedding. Ha..... Few more years could be mine right? Heee....... Who know! This is my second time attending church wedding. This wedding is really a simply one but is a heart warming one too. There are three things that stir my emotion. 1.) When Pastor JEFF said :"Who let JAcq get MARRY(something like this la...)!" Then her father raised up his HAND. {VERY STRaight UP, Very PROUD of that. } I pause for a moment. Will my father do that also when i got marry? Will he be present? Will i recieve his Blessing? I hope so. This mean a lot alot to me. I also hope All my relatives, friends and collegues will be with me. Thro the wedding, all of them will know OUR GOD is a GOD OF LOVE. To keep the marriage on going Jesus LOve should be the answer. 2.) I cried when the bridegroom thank his grandfather. Next to me is buddie and Lay. Ha..... Both of them what shock when they see tear rolling down from my pretty face.(Actually my ber ber cry too. Not only me OK.) Why I cried? This is becasue i can feel Eugene love for his grandfather. I pause again. If i am on stage who will i thank. I confirm i will water the stage. Too many ppl that impacted me that i need to gave thank. I hope by that time all my family had come to know the Lord. This will be a joyful thing. 3.)Bridegroom sang a song and play paino to the bride. While singing, i can feel that they have been thro a lot before they got marry. They have give the best to serve the Lord and the Lord bring them together to impact even more thro the marriage. Pause Again. What special item will my bridegroom present to me? To show how much he love me. Ha...... Hopefully not sing song that kind of thing. This is too common le. Also i am not that knid who really know how to appreciate song. Maybe hip hop dance is better. Aiya! Anything along as is "SPECIAL' will DO. Conclusion Sometime i may feel lonely doing thing alone. But i am not in a hurry to get into relationship. I will rather wait for my BEST bridegroom that the Lord had prepared for me than choose on my own. I wantl a marriage that will bless more ppl around me. Hee... i dun want to be a selfish person. If i really meet a guy i like, i will ask him a question to consider him. The question is a silly question la..... but it is useful if for me to know are we in the same purpose. The Question Go like this "If your mother and ur wife drop into the water who will u save FIRST?" The guy without thinking( in one sec) must say " My MOther." This is the guy i am looking for. He must have this kind of ranging: 1.)God 2.)Church-sheep 3.)Family 4.)Friends 5.)Wife I will marry a guy who really want to serve The Lord and Family seriously. Only One Life, Live to the Full for CHRIST. Less of myself More of OTHER. There are some of the photo i took. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Shi Yan at 5:39 PM

Wednesday, September 06, 2006 fI am angry with myself yesterday. 3 thing happen. 1.) During lunchtime i order lau su fen fishball noodle. The person gave us the wrong one. So i just go ahead to eat. Thinking not to trouble the person to change a new bowl. LATER THE PERSON FOUND OUT SHE GAVE US WRONGLY. SO GO AND TELL THE BOSS. THEN THE BOSS COME AND SCOLD US WHY DIDN'T WE RAISE UP.Deep inside my heart i was like dun want to trouble cook a new one. But end up i created a trouble over this. i am so upset. Thro this I learn that I need to stand FIRM. CANNOT COMPROMISE. 2.) I had a CHEESE Dinner on tuesday,so excercise is needed. I join my collgue for jogging. We want to go to Durian building.They bring me to walk a new route. So i just follow them. After jogging, i go off first. Because someone is waiting for me. Dun want to let her wait too long. i decided to walk back alone.hmm... i walk the new route without anyone leading. By right is a easy way from durian to raffles city shopping mall. By left i lost my direction. I walk round and round. thank God finally saw the tunnel that can go thro city link. I feel very weird walking in the link. Because only me (alone) wearing sport attire. All so formal. A bit in secure. I ask myself, why this happen to me again. Lessons need to be learn are i need to look and remember the surounding. Must be ALERT. Dun be so BLUR. Place my security in the Lord. 3.) I forgot to wish RAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY. I feel so bad :(. Thank God i give him the gift before hand.Feel abit Sorry la.

Monday, September 04, 2006 TO :Pearline I really MISS YOU so much........... The last gathering is at coffee bean. Are you going back in Nov? I got so many time to tell me. Can u remember few few yr ago, You told me that JUNE share a testimony in the Church. Her style look like mine. Those funny type. Then you continue to say one day maybe i will be like her, sharing testimony on stage and made a lot of ppl laugh. Guess wat! This thing really happen to me. Ha... .. Yesterday (03/09/06) I go on stage to share abt my passion on suppoting the church planter. the reponse was good. A lot of ppl are encourage. How i wish ade, sam and YOU are there. Because all of u believe in you, that why i can go so far. Pearline , thank very much. To: Zhi Xia my dear friend Miss ViVan Lau, thank for practising with me. I know i am not very good in my presenation. Ha... U listen until want to fall asleep lor.But Ur feedbac k is very important to me. Our go back and practise and practise till very late. To : Li Zhen God sis, ur present really add more courage to me. Let us continue to walk in the light of God . Amen. Here is my Scrip edited my Kam Weng My name is Shiyan and I’m from Adults ministry. I’m here to share with you my passion in supporting our church planters especially our team in Kenya. Before I go further, I want to thank my first mentor who helped to lay a strong spiritual foundation in me. She is such a generous person who really gives her best in blessing people, both through gifts and little gestures. From her, I caught the spirit of encouraging others. I learnt that encouragement is very important if we want to see people keep on serving God. Last August, our leader told us that the mid-size group (sub-district) is supporting Team Kenya. He gave us the some background on what the team in Kenya was going through and how much they needed our support. He hoped to send something to Kenya to encourage the team. I was so excited by his sharing and already had in mind a special card to send to the team. But my art & craft is not so good. I told the person I’m mentoring about my passion. She helped out and did a great job too. Here’s a photo of her handiwork. Lisa and Lichuang were greatly touched by the gesture. I was encouraged by their response that I went to mobilise a few people in our district to draw Lisa & Lichuang’s portrait. We also recorded down our greetings to welcome them back on their home visit. Their return back to Nairobi happened to fall on the Lunar New Year period, which means there’s plenty of good food! I quickly asked my Mum to bring me shopping for New Year goodies. It was a great tool to outreach too. I’m now in the “Love Nairobi” Support Team, helping to provide logistical support to Team Kenya. Part of our responsibility is to send things to the team to encourage them on a monthly basis. It took some thought on my part as to what to send them because the stuff must fit into an A4-size envelope. In Isaiah 6:9, Isaiah said to God, “Here am I, send me!” It inspired me to pray to God, “Here am I, tell me what to send!” God gave me a list of 5 kits to send them: Outreach Kit: Encouragement cards. Medicine Kit: Herbal tea. Entertainment Kit: VCDs. Beauty Kit: SKII Masks. Personal Growth Kit: Sermons. We are planning to implement this in our mid-size group (district). In fact every unit will be involved in helping to prepare these kits in the coming months. Our church song goes: “Come on brothers, come on sisters, let’s win the world! Let’s win the world! It is a small, small world.” Let’s not just sing or talk about winning souls. Let us be serious about it. We might not be ready to go church planting yet but we can definitely support our church planters and care for them. We can help them to be successful in their church planting efforts. We can be successful together as the whole Body of Christ. In the Bible, there is this account of Jesus feeding 5,000 people. Do you know that the food was provided by a boy and consist of only 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish? Hardly enough to feed a family. But the boy gave them all to Jesus and Jesus multiplied the food which went to feed 5,000 people. I know that I may not be able to do a lot of things, but I know that God has given me a mouth and so I use it to ask others to join me in my passion to encourage our church planters. The support I can give is very little, but I know Jesus will multiply it. Imagine what we can achieve if each of us work together in our various districts. The little boy couldn’t give out the bread & fish on his own; he needed the help of the disciples to distribute the food. Take ownership of the team your district is supporting, Join us in contributing your finance, talents, prayer to support and encourage our church planters. A good man cares for himself; a great man cares for others. Let’s choose to become great together. Amen! Shi Yan at 3:02 PM
