Sore Fingers.

Finally got an amp today. Sick of plugging my guitar to my imac and that garage band keeps throwing me feedback problems. I got it at a pretty cheap price! Swee Lee Katong was havin' a promotion and i snapped mine up for only $80! Should be able to last for my beginner lessons haha.

Been practicing since i got it and i've got really sore fingers now :( It's all good tho! Finally manage to smoothen out my Em to C chord changes. Silly fat fingers, not just fat but retarded too! Sigh had to stop playing or my neighbors would be annoyed.

Whoaaaa i can't wait to learn rifts man, they're like really cool. But i guess i'll have to start with chords, gotta walk before you can run!

I Want to Serve!

First ever electric guitar lesson tmr, very excited. I figured i'm a terribad self-learner and so i decided to get someone to teach! :D The price's reasonable and affordable so i jumped right in. Meh, was suppose to have my first lesson last week if not for the impromptu holiday. (Not that i minded, it turned out to be awesome!)

Whoaaaa i really hope to serve God someday with this. I guess it's an instrument that could add a lot of energy to praise songs and also elevate the worship portion. God grant me consistency please! Army's gonna be an obstacle but hey, squeezing an hour of lesson here and there during weekend should be doable. (I hope!)

I'd probably get sick of saying this but anyway, it's been so long! So long since i desired to serve in any way. I really do hope this new found commitment is here to stay. Maybe, just maybe i did pinpoint my problem this time round. It was awesomely awkward to apologize to pastor though. But a man has gotta be a man and if i did wrong it's only right to apologize. Haha good thing he understood and we kinda shared a father and son moment.

Now to other things. WHERE OH WHERE is the equilibrium?! I dont want to be like a despo or bugger but i'm so confused when it comes to things like this. :/ Gosh, i find this pursuit very hard to understand. Sigh, i'm trying so hard not to get my hopes up. Oh wells. :(

and i refuse to shed another tear because it's just so very pathetic and stupid.

It's Been So Long!

It sure feels good to partner GOD and accomplish some sorta thing with Him. I'm really really really glad that my brother came back to God today and re-committed himself! Whoa it's like finally a major prayer answered! Thank God man!

Come to think of it, it's been so long since i've been on such a journey. Hahahaha hope it's a beginning of many MORE! I feel so energized to do more ever since i've cleared up a bit but meh, time to get back to training soon :( It's kinda a dilemma, got posted to command school, dont know whether to stay in or not while i wait for the course to start. I'd definitely save up a lot on sleep and transport if i stay in but if i do that, i'd kinda lose my freeeeedom. Sian ttm.

Anyway, it's interesting to visit other churches and see how they function. Learn stuff and try to bring back the lessons. From the church i've been to for these couple of weeks, i've learned that being genuine and warm really goes a long way to touching a person's heart, may it be a non-believer or a person coming back to God. It's so important to break out of the comfort zone! Break out of the cliques and interact with the new people, get to know them and take a genuine interest in their lives. It's all about establishing intimacy! Wonderful people there.

Also, their life group was pretty interesting, though i didnt get to attend one myself, i've learned from my bro that they'd havta prepare something to share during the session, probably a verse that they might have been pondering about during the week. They'd have to talk about what is it and how would they apply it into their lives. Awesome stuff here. However this would require diligence and a certain degree of independence from men and a full dependence on God for that mini-message for others and yourself. If one dreads preparation, he/she would probably dread this kinda life group sharing, but if one takes full delight in the Word of the Lord and is hungry to learn more about His Word and how to apply it, he/she would definitely benefit a lot through this. Mmm i wonder if we could implement a little of this into our own life group. :/

I am really glad. :)

:D

Wow had a blast at my friend's church today. Never felt like that for such a long long time. Heck, i don't even remember the last time i cried during worship. Thoroughly refreshed and got that much needed touch from God. I saw the cross so vividly with my sins pinned onto it, i've been set free to follow Jesus once again! :D:D

And God beckoned me to seek His face once again and i responded thru the verse, "When You said, "Seek My face," my heart said to You, "Your face, O LORD, I shall seek." It's time to get serious with God once again to seek and behold Him.

You know, it's so easy to put up a show or "act 一个" when you've got enough head knowledge of who God is, His character and His ways. Chances are people would probably believe you're pretty hooooly. But when one's not right with God, nothing in his life would be right and his heart would probably be in such a punctured state. Looking at my life for the past months, whoa i've been pretty screwed up, making all the wrong decisions, pursuing all the wrong things and yet i still thought that hey i'm still oright. Oh by the surpassing mercies of God, i'm certainly led to repentance.

Wah thank God man!
