Hey.
before i get started with my work just thought i drop
in a thought or two.yeaps.
i really dunno how to start it, because my mind is just
jumbled with words and all. at the back at my mind
this post is somewhat related to a event on sunday(23/4)
night yeaps. hmm firstly, i would like to say to that
person. im fine (: dont' worry. hahah and im not lyin,
like really really (: hmm and yeah thanks for telling
me what you did.
hmm..
recently, it just stumbled on me. why people in barker
are so not on fire on Jesus or not willing to believe in Him.
people in barker are very 'follow the crowd' kinda thing ?
yeah. they do whats the in thing so as not to be left out or
laughed at. i have to admit, i was like that.perharps im still
like that. but one thing for sure. im changing (: praise God.
barker people...swearin/cursing - daily
talkin back to teacher/in class - daily
not handin in homewokr - daily.
the list goes on and on. i would guess in most schools, its like
that. however when it comes to Chritianity i would say its
totally different ? during chapel. no one sings. maybe a few.
some sing, but they do make fun of the songs and stuff. -sigh
these things were always on my mind, i just didnt give thought
about it. FINALLY. i did. i have been what everyone is, perharps
not as much as they do. but still...
however, i have decided. not to do what they do.
swearin.. thou its the d word or s word or anything its still swearing.etc.
everything, anything. i WANT to be different. i WANT people in my school
to see that Christianity is not what the OTHER people who claim themselves
to be christian to be. i WANT and NEED to show them what its all about.
(romans 12:2)Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will.
From this day on, i Shawn Tan, promise to not do what the people in my school
do just to fit in and fear to be laughed at. It WILL be hard, it WILL hurt. but im willing
to be humiliated for Jesus. i had enough of tryin to fit it.yes i do. no matter
how long and hurtin the road may be, i will carry on, with Jesus on my side.
I believe that many of us are like that ? maybe not as bad as me. but still, the same
to a certain extend. I pray that you will change and not conform to the patterns of the
world. that everyone of you who are like me will start to realised that the reason for
non-believers making fun of Christianity is because of US ! Christians ! the way
we lead our lives in school is why they are making fun of Christianity. Think about
it, its true. Its our fault. No one else, but us. If we lead a life that shines for Jesus, not
just in church but in school as well. Things will change. People will start to see that
Christians are totally a different group of people, doing what is pleasing to God.
They will see the DISTINCT difference between a normal person and us, Christians.
I really cant take it anymore, thinking that its really our fault. Im sorry Lord.I apologize
for all the Christians that are just like me.
Just before i end, i just would like to say please change and that its really our fault.
Please think about it, or even pray over it. God will open your eyes and give
you strength to change for the better. If every christian will change to lead a life
that will shine for Jesus, people will start to kneel before the King of kings and Lord
of lords. Therefore, if thats what you want, please do what you have to do.
Hello blog !! I dont know what to post and im bored !!!

hmm hello people,
im back to blogging hopefully on a weekly basis yeaps.
anyways today went to study with andrea at payalebar macs,
she came super late. but anyhow thats not the point, after awhile
we started talkin about interesting stuff. like the current state of
Megalife, the old central one days and including the days where
like almost the whole of Megalife was at the grass patch.
Those were memories that wun be forgotten.
Firstly, what we talked about Megalife was mainly about the attendace
and how it actually come to what it is now. Many people came, and sadly
they went off too. Than when we were somewhat discussing about it, i
suddenly remembered what Elder Freddy Boey had preached about Riverlife
Church having 7 years of harvest and than now it was time for 7 years of
famine. That is why i think people are leaving. But i strongly believe that God
has a plan for this and he will show it to us in his own timing. Therefore, i urge
YOU who are reading this stand strong in your faith ok (: hahah this brings me
to something sherman said. He said that he was afraid when hes in the army
and might just backslide and told the rest that we MUST help get each other
back to Christ if anyone of us ever do so yeaps. Help each other since we're
Megalifers !!
hmm yeah.. sounded like a speech :x ah well anyways now come the memories!!
The Old Central One Days.. i really got to say that the old central one is truly
a very bonded cell, everyone in the cell had a sense of openess and yeah we all
were part of each other's life. people like abby,janice,andrea,ming,raywen,aaron,
shaunlee,zihua,louelle,and me(sorry if i missed anyone else) we all were sooo
sooo close.. the fun stuff we did like for example, the stupid stupid plan for aaron's
birthday "surprise" haha it was dumb but yeah fun as well. The flour days....oh my..
abby !!! -shakes head. hahah yeah those were the days. but anyhow we got to move
on (: i really thank God for giving me such a bonded cell that was very much
my building platform of my christian life to what i've become today (: yeaps and
thanks to everyone from the old central one.. those were the days hahah thats what
we all would say..
and yes not forgetting the grass patch !! like every saturday after service, most of the
Megalifers will just head down to the grass patch eat and just fellowship with one another.
even like we didnt know each other we would just sit crap, some playin soccer, some making
fun of me and ________ ... hahah !! but yeah it brings back old memories (:
all the Megalifers at the grass patch were just having so much fun fellowshipping with
one another -nods head.
hmm yeaps i've done my post for today. its all about memories and what thoughts
are in my mind yeaps ! do tag please thanks !! (:
