Major Project; Stress; Muggin; Thailand; The Mission Team

I guess the bigest battles are usually found on home soil. In thailand i could focus on helping the people there. During exam period i can fully focus on mugging.

But now when i'm back and i have so many things to juggle i think that when the real battle begines. When time is of the essience when things don't go my way. When the world seems to spin so fast. And everything i have to do remains undone. This is where the real battle begins.

As Yesterday marked the begining of trouble times as it marked the begining of my major project. I stood there in slience when my supervisor gave my buddy and me our project. A cold chill traveled down my spine as i took a moment to grasp my doom.

My project is to design a trekking device for the singapore police coast guards to enable them to be equiped with a device so that if ever they would fall off from their boat the alarm will sound and we will be able to save them in time. This was the project our seniors did what the coast guards want us to do now is too improve on it and make a device that can give them an exact location of objects or humans.

A simple one paragraph describtion maybe an understatement for the huge amount of workload that is too be done. The programming , the making of the proto-type, the satisfaction of the coast guards all these invisable problems hidden to the human eye are those that trouble me.

With all this in mind praying and staying prayer full really becomes a real problem :) But i believe that admist all these problems. I will be still and know God is there i will be still and let GOD guide me for i know who is the way the truth and the life. And i know GOD will light the way and though my world may fall i'll never let him GO.

So yeah this is my prayer request for all the really special and weird readers that read my blog. Pray for me :) Pray i will be able to overcome this problem :) and be able to score and do well in my major project :)

Thank You All

Times of Refreshing.

Well why i'm bloggings lets cut the story short.

( Background )

God spoked to me on the train. Caught me by surprise told me to read a small booklet titled "My identity in Christ" At first i was wondering God 0.0 ? why so random LOL!!! Cause i was in the train just reflecting on my life stuff thats bordering me taking away my focus on God. And other doubts that i'm not good enough that i'm just a small speck in this Big world with so many better more eligible people and i'm ranked ...... well lets put it this way not even in the rankings haiz.... Then he just suddenly spoked. So yeah i obeyed him i went to fliped throught that booklet it had a 4 sections all filled with verses and all that stuff in line with the subheadings so these were the subheadngs

  1. I AM ACCEPTED.....
  2. I AM SECURE......
  3. I AM SIGNIFICANT.....
  4. 20 CANS OF SUCCESS

Well the first one didn't really hit me the 2nd one a little but as i keep reading the verses really became more and more meaningful till i hit the last 2 section which i'm going to blog about cause i dunno why but i'm a very very negative guy that always thinks about the worst case senario first. And always see myself as the smallest speck on this planet but yea the 3rd sections was verses that told me that I'm significant verses like

  • I am part of the true vine, joined to Christ and able to produce lots of fruits ( John 15 :1 ,5)
  • I am handpicked by Jesus to bear fruit ( John 15:16)
  • I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me ( Phil 4.13)

These verse came and hit be real hard. And then came the last section the 20 Cans of Success

  • Why should i say i can't when the Bible says i can do all things through Christ who strenghtens me ? (Phil 4:13)

  • Why should i lack when i know that God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in Christ Jesus? (Phill 4:19)

  • Why should i fear when the Bible says that God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power , love and a sound mind? (2 Tim 1:7)

  • Why should i lack faith to fulfuill my calling knowing that God has allotted to me a measure of faith? (Rom 12:3)

  • Why should i be weak when the Bible says that the Lord is my strength of my life and that i will display strength and take action because i know God? (Psa 27 :1 ; Dan 11:32)

  • Why should i allow satan supremacy over my life when He that is in me is greater than he that is in the world? ( 1 John 4:4)

  • Why should i accept defeat when the Bible says that God always leads me in triumph? ( 2 Cor 2:14)

  • Why should i lack wisdom when Christ became wisdom to me from God and God gives wisdom to me generously when i ask Him for it? ( 1 Cor 1:30 ; James 1:5)

  • Why should i be depressed when i can recall to mind God's lovingkindness, compassion and faithfulness and have hope ? (Lam 3 : 21 -23 )

  • Why should i worry and fret when i can cast all my anxiety on Christ who cares for me ? (1 Peter 5 :7 )

  • Why should i ever be in bondage knowing that there is liberty where the Spirit of the Lord is ? (Gal 5 :1 )

  • Why should i feel condemned when the bible says i am not condemned because i am in Christ? ( Rom 8:1 )

  • Why should i feel alone when Jesus said He is with me always and He will never leave me nor forsake me? ( Matt 28 :20 ; Heb 13 :5 )

  • Why should i feel accursed or that i am the victim of bad luck when the Bible says that Christ redeemed me from the curse of the law that i might receive His Spirit? ( Gal 3 : 13,14)

  • Why should i feel discontented when i, like Paul, can learn to be content in all my circumstances ? ( Phill 4 :11 )

  • Why should i feel worthless when Christ became sin on my behalf that i might become the righteousness of God in Him? (2 Cor 5 :21 )

  • Why should i have a persecution complex kowning that nobody can be against me when God is for me? (Rom 8:31)

  • Why should i feel like a failure when i am a conqueror in things through Christ ? (Rom 8 :37)

  • Why should i be confused when God is the author of peace and He gives me knowledge through his indwelling Spirit? (1 Cor 14:33 ; 2 :12)

  • Why should i let the pressure of life bother me when i can take courage knowing that Jesus has overcome the world and its tribulations? (John 16:33)

These are the 20 cans of success and these 20 cans were like 20 artilery shells i had to fight against Mr s.a.tan it really lifted me and i walked out of that mrt really so refreshed and recharged ready to go into battle again! So yea God wanted me to share with you guys what i learn even in this small simple mrt ride :) And the best part is that i dun remember how when and where did i get the booklet from it has been moved around wallets for like a few years already something so powerful right under my nose and i didn't even know it. Divine appointment is the only explaination i can come up with haha !!!!!So let this also be a shout out to the rest of the people out there that to GOD there are also 3 golden rules

  1. Anywhere's a meeting place for him to speck to you
  2. Any window can become an opening for God to show himself in your life in a special way
  3. And HE DOES NOT DIE!!!!!!!! :)

Yeah tats all i have for you guys enjoy alright :)!!!!

Cya

Nicolas Chan's back

hey finally back exams over i really hope that i can up my GPA by 0.37 :S. Well thinking i'm just thinking of what to blog about. i finally came out wif something to blog about . i think i will blog about my change i believe that those that know me from year 1 will know how i was then and how much i've changed since then. Well why i never do well in year one. Answer is simple never study lor i'm a guy that is very driven but only to the things that i wanna do. If its something i have totally no intrest then you have nothing to expect from me cause i too will give you nothing. Want me to work for you simple make the thing you want me to do something that's benificial to me.

Anyways i took subpaper when i was in 1.1 and that really woke me up and made me relise that i have to chiong my studies so yea i did chiong my studies and then the grades got from Cs to Bs and to As soon enough.

i saw people getting good marks and i really had this thinking if they can do it so can i. i believe that in this world there are people that are born smart . However i also believe that wif hard-work and the right tactics even people like me that is not born clever can make it and get marks the clever people can get and wif that i worked my butt of this sem wif that goal in mind and i really hope i get my targtetted marks :)

i went for super teens tat camp was really meant for the sec sch i was the only one from poly and i missed one week of sch just to go and the best part was that when i came back i had 1 week to study for mid term test. winner yes i know but i really felt it was worth my while . i learnt so much in there those around me saw that i was different. They taught me that its not how good you are tat matters its how good you want to be! and i really really liked that line!!!

So yea to all those who actually does read my blog i just got this to say from a slacker to a study freak is not the change it was a soccer fanatic to a studies fanatic tats all it was just my focus was else where not that i was a slacker . Get your facts right before you label people and please at least get to know the person true and true before you label them.

Guess tats all i have to say
bye all! till next time!

Go Back to basics

i'll be song leading this sunday at my church although its small its still scary. Anyways i was thinking of wat songs to pick then i came across this song which really woke me up.

Christians now-a-days are so weak if i may use the word. Their minds are easily swayed by this world alittle rumour here alittle rumour their and their faith shakes like an earthquake. This got me thiking God place upon me this gift of being able to elaborate things in the bible in a different way in a way that anyone young or old will understand and because of this my calling is all about sharing the GOOD NEWS with others. And the thing GOD told me to share today is about the problem that Christian face today their identity a few questions and their will be doubting if GOD still loves them or not well it will take hours to explain and even longer to answer your questions about this subject so GOD showed me this one way to explain everything crystal clearly.

So listen up to this song

Jesus loves me this i know

For the bible tells me so

Little ones to him belong

They are weak but he is strong


YES JESUS LOVES ME

YES JESUS LOVES ME

YES JESUS LOVES ME

for the bible tells me so...


And with this i conclude my post i believe i've made my point.

Techman ?? Whats The matter wif you!!

This post will be my tribute to that guy that went to jail stealing a $100 bible from techman. I dun really understand why he stole from techman. Maybe he found it very isolated and stuff. Maybe its cause no one usually goes to that place. However the fact that he went to steal a bible does not make him a bad person to me. He stole a bible cause his old one was torned and he had no money to buy a new one. COME ON LA! Yes the bible teach us not to steal . It also does teach us to give to the poor does it not ? when i saw this in the papers yesterday i took it as a wake up call for christians all around. Is a human life worth $100 to you ?? That bible could had ment the world to that guy. i'm very sure he would had pleaded for his freedom. For forgiveness a 2nd chance is all he asked and you just could not give him that ?? Whats wrong wif you ??? GOD gave you chances after chance didn't he?? Everytime you dissapointed him he forgives you. And you CANNOT forgive this man tat stole a $100 bible ?? Dun kid me la everyone or at least most ppl i know , knows that bible selling price is $100 however buying price is so cheap cause you buy in bulk and also from other countries like the phillipines where bibles and other books are sold so cheap when you convert to SGD minus here minus there you could most prob bought an NIV for $50( INCLUSIVE shipping cost) . And you cannot forgive taht man ? He Stole the bible not some story book The bible AND of all bookstore from a christian bookstore????? Where is the empathy that christians should have?? where is the unconditional love that Jesus spend his whole life trying to teach us?? Have they fallen on deaf ear . You have a shop full wif christian book which are filled wif promises GOD left in the bible a shop tat suppose to be glowing wif the love a christ BUT sad to say no to TECHMAN the bible is just another book. Sadly TECHMAN fill wif christian book it is, but a beating heart it has none. Your a DISGRACE to christians all over the world. Yesterday when i read the papers about the incident i NEVER felt so ashamed to be called a CHRISTIAN before in my life. TECHMAN made christian seem like stingy business man. TECHMAN you grew part of this world and repent now for your days maybe numbered.

However kneel know and beg for forgives for wat you done was wrong. Even the judge who never state if he was a christian or not was KIND enough to give him a bible. i dun think you are FIT to run a christian book store you do not have enough love to run it. Then you may say business around your area is not going well bla bla bla....... Well i guess we ALL now know why cause the hand of GOD and his blessings wif it has left you place. Who knows wat dwells benieth the mask that you call a face. The amour that you call skin. god no more is GOD in your place , you have given him up for MONEY . Repent now for our GOD is a forgiving one , but forget not this incident cause you scared the life of one boy. That because of this incident may NEVER become a christian again . His blood is on your hands TECHMAN your shop is suppose to be a refector for GOD but no you now have another god walking around in your mist there its green and its said that he is the root of all evil ....... i really hope the TEACHMAN BOSS reads this and WAKE UP before its too late for her .......

Oh Lord i pray that you forgive the techman boss for she know not of wat she done. Forgive her short- sightedness and forgive her weak spirits that she fell pray to the world and her temptations. i pray you set a heage around her and guard her heart give back warm into her icy-cold winderland she calls a heart. i pray for that young lad tat is in prison now i pray that you give him the strength to for the techman boss i pray that he will come out of this a changed man and not a anti-christ. i pray that you use him in your ministry and may your will be done in his life. And may your will be done in the TECHMAN boss's life let this incident tug her heart strings so tat she will turn back to you.

i pray all this in Jesus's mighty name
Amen!
