Bob Lee Swagger (Mark Wahlberg), a former Marine Corps sniper who leaves the military after a mission goes bad. After he is reluctantly pressed back into service, Swagger is double-crossed again. With two bullets in him and the subject of a nationwide manhunt, Swagger begins his revenge, which will take down the most powerful people in the country.
Let's see, i guess what many of us caught is like what William has shared. I must admit, i don't have much points left to share le, haha... One day I would also like to see my children (Both physical and spiritual) to be serving the Lord and preaching to others.
What I hear the Lord speaking to me was my family's salvation. I guess I have forgotten to keep praying for them, and the Lord convicted me in this area on the first night of the G12 conference.
Let's see, after the first night after supper, I reached home at about 1am, then I was playing with my PSP until 3am (haha, confession), then went to bed. I was then awaken by this dream, sort of a nightmare. In the dream, I was at my father's funeral. Very sad and all, then my mum was there, etc etc. I have no idea how a Jewish funeral is like, but I seem to have this impression that it's a Jewish funeral. Weird though. Anyway, I woke up at 5.30am, and I mean wide awake. So what's the textbook answer to what to do in this situation? Pray la. So I start praying for my family's salvation. Praying by name, praying and at the same time declaring the Lord's glory and victory in my life and my family.
So after that, at 5.30am being wide awake and having awaken by this dream, I start preparing myself to go for breakfast with Dennis and the rest at Simei at 8am. Just before I left my house, my dad came home though the front door from his morning jog. There is this relief in my heart, this comfort just by seeing him, knowing that all is well (even though i know it is, need visual confirmation, haha... The standard, "You think, I thought, who confirm"). So after sharing this with Dennis, 3 points came out la. 1. Reminder to continue to pray for my family 2. Jesus died for us, haha... How I got this is kinda corny. The Fatherly figure dies, and He's a Jew, so Jesus loh. Who knows if I continue to dream, then can see the resurrection, haha... 3. Always share with your leader. More of a coverage and accountability thing, to know that you are being protected.
Basically that's it. The rest of the G12 conference is like what William and Zhi Xiong shared, so no point repeating, haha...
I would like to share with you what i have learnt from this G12 conference. Personally, I learnt that it is time for the sons and daughters to rise up. This point struck me the most for the whole G12 conference, especially so after Ps Khong spoke about the rising up of Pastors' children. He demostrated this by allowing Daniel Khong and Priscilla Khong to preach to us. Indeed, it is really no coincidence, Ps Caesar's daughter spoke to the people too ( if i am not wrong, she is just merely 16 yrs old. Can u imagine yourself doing it?)
I believe this message is not just for pastors' children, rather it is for everyone. We have spiritual parents too, and we need to take the initiative to rise up. Of course not everyone can stand on the pulpit to preach. However, we can start to take ownership of our cell group; be more pro-active and even be more involved in the cell. For instance, u might want to call your cell leader to ask him what time to meet. Rather than waiting for him to do so. This can be called rising up too.
I can sense the change in the dynamics of my current G12 group. I can feel the burning desires and the rising spirits of my fellow brothers. I would like encourage my fellow brothers to continue to keep this fire burning. In the midst of all these hyped emotions, it is important for us to continue to love people- just like what my fellow brother, zhi xiong, wrote in the preceding post .
God Bless you with a wonderful year.

hi guys and girls(i noe u r reading this too), anyway back to wat i going to blog about. it is about the G12 '07, was it impactful for u? did the word sink deep into ur hearts? well, for mi indeed it did impact mi. it gave a whole new understanding about wat is happening ard mi and y is it happening.
I would like to share wit all my brothers and sisters the 3 points tt i caught during the whole G12 conference.
1st point it is forgiveness. we need to forgive the ppl tt have hurt us and also ask for forgiveness from the ppl tt we have hurt in our lives. we can't do anything for God if we can't forgive others, cuz it was God tt 1st forgiven us and tell us tt we need to forgive others as how God forgive us. Asking for forgiveness is sometime hard for ppl to do due to our pride. Before we can ask forgiveness from others we need to humble ourselve 1st. so guys please ask ourselve have we not forgive anyone yet? or do we still need to ask forgiveness from some ppl?
2nd point it is love. i remember i once hear someone say without love we can't do anything great. it is due love tt we can do small things to ppl which can mean a great things to others. as wat daniel khong preach. in order to enter the kingdom of God we need to learn to love our neighbour, he also share with us tt love is action, motion develop emotion. to love does not mean a.t.n.a(all talk no action) we need to show the person we love them by spending time with them. talking to them. like wat jesus did to his disciple. he love them. but among them he love judas the most. if i rememer clearly i think it was ps cesar tt told us jesus broke bread and dip it in wine for judas. ps cesar explain to us tt this action in jewish culture is a act of love. as u can see jesus also show us tt to love is also to do it by action. For it is written in the commendment as the greatest one is to love God wit all our heart all our mind all our strength and to love our neighbour as we love God.So ppl today please examine our hearts today. have we obey this commandment?
3rd point well r u guys ok so far? still following mi? jia you it is about to end le set our heart rite for the kingdom of God for my 3rd point i got nothing much to say but just to set our heart right and walk right in God's way for it is written tt whoever look back at the plow is not fit for the kingdom of God. in order to serve God wholeheartly we must be willing to die for his work.
dear brothers and sisters here i bless u all wit wat i learn wat the conference. hope tt i might help u all in someways. my aim is to be able to preach to ppl one day. thanx
