CF Camp 2008!

was AWESOME! God was so awesome in our midst. at first right, we were really discouraged by the number of people who signed up despite all the effort being put in. i even tried stopping Ms Assunta and Ernest from going on with the camp. (yes yes, i'm evil. i know..) come to think of it, it was really the devil working in me to try to stop them from going on with this camp. i had alot of doubts (thanks to the devil), and i didn't even feel like going for this camp. it is because of my life, which wasn't right with God, that i was so vulnerable to the devil....and i allowed the devil (unknowingly) to take control of everything i do.

as the days drew nearer, things started going our way according to plans, and there were less doubts in me. ernest, adelene, jacqueline, Ms Assunta, Mr Joshua, Ernest's mum....they kept on praying and praying so much so that the devil didn't have any opportunity to attack us. but one day before the camp, problems aroused......again. but on the day of and throughout the camp, the scattered pieces fell back at its place, and everything went well.

at the starting, we actually had only 2 musicians at first..we couldn't find a guitarist, only found a keyboardist and drummer. but on the way to SUFES campsite in the bus, we found out Ser Jin (don't really know how to spell his name) knows how to play the guitar! praise God! and as we got along the camp...we found out many other who knows how to play the keyboard. Grace was one of them and she helped out in the later sessions. then came along Jeremy, Pastor Katherine's son who knew how to play the guitar too! and helped us... God worked so many miracles among us i tell you. He's just so awesome. when things seem like it's not going our way, God is always there putting things into its place for us when we ask for it.

and right....i was the only one scheduled to song lead for all the sessions. and i was like, "What?! it's my first time doing it, and Lord, i don't think i can do it!" BUT. i actually did it! ( Ernest helped to worship lead the last session btw. ) God helped me, and He actually taught me many many things while i worship led and while preparation too. before this, i wasn't intact with God much. i hardly pray, i hardly do my devotions (almost never), but i realised that if my life is not right with God, i can't worship lead. i can't lead this people in to the presence of God. i'm so unclean. and darkness and light cannot assemble together as you guys know. so i asked for forgiveness and made my life right with God again. and really, God really moved in our midst. the first session of worship and the last few session of worship was so different! the whole worship music team grew more in the Lord, and He took us to a very different level of worship! thanks to Ser Jin, Ernest, Adelene, Gibien, Joanne, Jacqueline, Grace, Jeremy, Mr Joshua, Ms Assunta, Che Che Esther, they helped me so much in worship and we were all like worship leaders during worship session! they constantly prayed for me, we kept seeking God together, there were just so much unity! God brought us together, and i still remembered all the session we would sit down and pray together for a theme, for the Holy Spirit, for everything! while we prepared for the worship session too, we had our own worship time!

God really really really is AWESOME i tell you! those of you who did not go, you guys missed out so much! i'm back, rejuvenated! refreshed! restored! and renewed! :D the Lord has certainly done a great work in camp.

we had many memories too in camp. we went for jungle trekking and stream trotting! it was so much fun! though we were really tired, but everyone managed to stay awake until bedtime. hehe.

and did i tell you that i had my very own breakthrough in my spiritual life?! cause YES, i had a breakthrough!!! as i worship lead, God spoke so much to me and lead me on to Him through many many people. especially Gibien.. Gibien is certainly a man of God, and God used him to speak to me about many important things. Ms Assunta also spoke to me, and i really thank God for her.. i thank God for using her to speak to me. i thank God for Ernest, for always believing in me, and praying for me...Joanne, Adelene, and Jacqueline, for always being there praying for me, helping me, encouraging me, believing in me. Ser Jin for always helping me during worship.. you know when i couldnt reach the note or something, he'll sing so loudly to cover up for me, and also to queue me in when i didn't know when to come in. i thank God for Jeremy for being such a great cheerful guy, and he taught me many things about being a worship leader. Che Che Esther too (haha. not auntie. lol. ). she taught me many things about being a worship leader and she's always there encouraging me. i thank God for Grace too, she helped me alot in playing the keyboard, even when i give my hand signal late, she doesn't blame me...(the whole worship team too. thanks guys!) i really really appreciate all you guys. and i really thank God for each and every one of you, including everyone who attended this CF camp!

i could just go on and on talking about this camp and God's great work in us. God is just such an awesome God and friend! thank You Lord for everything! :DD
