Keep running!

You know what..running this race is not easy. Many times, I fall again and again and again.. and again. But each time when I fall, I want to get up becoming stronger than before. It's not going to be easy.. but it's going to be worth it!


I'm not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don't get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I've got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I'm off and running, and I'm not turning back. Philippians 3:12-14 (The Message)

pls vote, pls?

I can't understand this.
Many people who are eligible to vote are not registering as VOTERS.
Seriously if you want to see change, change begins with YOU.
Stop looking around and see what other people do, for goodness' sake!
Many people are saying 'It's okay..I'm just one of the many million voters'
Do you know that some people are dying to see change? because their life is not as easy as yours? because they may not have good education like you're having? even basic necessities like ELECTRICITY WHICH YOU're taking for GRANTED? CLEAN WATER SUPPLY? I MEAN, C.L.E.A.N water supply which you can get so easily whenever you turn on the tap.. some people are still using water which look like teh tarik! You have not seen, does not mean these people do not exist.

Can we, chinese, be more outward looking?
Please?
Stop being so cina.
and start being a MALAYSIAN.

I seriously feel like rapunzel now. my hair is soooo long.

He calls me friend!

"Hm.. Jesus, my friend?"
I always look to Him as my Father, my God, my Lord, my redeemer, my healer, and the list goes on.. but when was the last time, I actually talk to Him as my friend?
Yesterday, I was talking to my friend on the phone. She prayed for me and reminded me that even when nobody understands how I feel and what I'm going through.. Jesus knows. Jesus is my friend. Jesus is my friend! *ting*

Sometimes, even your closest friend
wouldn't understand what you're going through.
But this Jesus who laid down His life for you, He knows.
He calls me friend! :) :) :)

leaders' training retreat

Wanted to update on Leaders' Retreat Training long long long long time ago but didn't really have time, was very very busy ever since sem started.. I will try my best to recall what I've received :)

I was very blessed by Annette who came all the way to Penang to share during leaders' retreat sessions. :) It was one of the best leaders' training! :) She is very personal and 'deep' in a way, hahaa The things that she shared was so timely for me as well. You know, Ever since I entered into USM, I always believe that greater things have yet to come. I have big dreams :) because I know my God is a big God. But I think I have been very veryyy task-oriented. I want to do things, great things for God..so I push others to do the same without caring about how they feel or what they think. Maybe one most important thing from this retreat is that I'm slowly changing my focus..from being task-oriented to people-oriented. I am. still. living and learning! :)

VMS, vision and mission statement.

Excos, CGLs and ACGLs.

This game is about 'travelling eggs' from one point to another point..by catching and throwing to your group members. Some eggs were broken during the game..



These eggs are like our cell members. They have names. They are fragile. They are important.

:) we played many games actually.. but I lazy wanna upload all.hahaha

We are all many parts of one body.. with different functions.

This retreat reminded me on what God has told me before I joined the CF leadership team. Servanthood starts at home. God has to remind me many times hahaha aku ni stubborn and forgetful, and it's not easy :/ but I cannot be serving so much outside and not serving in the family. My family need Jesus. My light has to shine. Jesus demonstrated to me how servanthood is like.. it is about going down.. to the lowest level and wash each others' feet. This can be done only when we know our true identity in Christ, our unshakeable identity as Sons and Daughters of the Most High.

'retweet' @wilson moy :)

choose lah

Do you know that we have a CHOICE?
God gave everyone a free will, a choice.

Forgiving someone is a choice.
Loving someone is a choice.
Refuse to be offended is a choice.
As much as we can feel the way we feel (sad, discouraged, etc), we have a choice to either dwell in our feelings and emotions or CHOOSE not to.
Because we have A CHOICE.

Many times, I feel offended because I choose to put myself first before others.
Many times, I feel sad because I choose to allow my emotions to take over.
Many times, I feel sooo negative about certain things because I choose to believe in the lies of the enemies.

Today, I choose to learn.
I choose to learn to be positive. I don't know how, or whether I can, but I choose to try.
I choose to make a difference in people's lives.
I choose godliness. I choose abundant life.
because I chose Jesus.

How about you?

Ku dibri kuasa! Don't play play :)

Ku diberi kuasa dari Raja Mulia
Menaklukan musuh di bawah kakiku
Kupakai kuasa dari Raja Mulia
Bila Allah ada bersamaku Siapa jadi lawanku

Sungguh besar Kau Tuhanku
Engkau perisai hidupku
Ku berdiri dengan iman
Iman dalam Yesus Tuhan

Kau yang memberi kemenangan
Ku bersorak merayakan
Terpujilah Engkau Raja s'gala Raja

To talk with God, no Breath is Lost.
To walk with God, no Strength is Lost.
To wait for God, no Time is Lost.
Always trust in God, we won't get Lost.

In prayer, it is better to have a heart without words than words without heart. - John Bunyan-

run with PURPOSE

So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing. I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, I fear that after preaching to others I myself might be disqualified.
1 Corinthians 9:26-27

Yes, I will run the race
till I see Your face
Not by might, nor power
but by the Spirit of God!

PKA cell group

finger pointing?

More than just pointing out the 'problems',
I need to learn to come out with solutions.

Because it is not about proving that someone is wrong or not good enough, to make them look bad. It is about helping them to see an error when it is there, and then helping them find a way to correct the error.


Because my God is in the business of restoring and building people up,
not tearing them down.

refreshed. renewed. recharged!

HELLO!!! Haha, my last entry seems a bit emo? Actually I thought twice before I posted it.. then in the end, I've decided to share it because I want you to know that I'm just an ordinary human being just like you.. I can feel tired, angry, sad, discouraged, broken, hurt.. but my God is by my side! :) So I will get up and continue running!

Isaiah 40:31
but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.



Just to update a little bit on what i'm going through now..

Few days ago, I had this impression : There's a season for everything. A time for everything. Then...

Ta-daaa!

In RGBC, we will be doing this together as a church. Give God 40 days.. :) I truly believe that God is extending His invitation to me, "Carmen, give me 40 days." Then I said to myself, "He deserves more than just 40 days."

Today is Day 1!

For 2 weeks.

Physically and mentally, restless :(
