Prayer List

Dear Father God in Heaven,
I thank You that You have brought almost all our brothers to cell this day where we were given a chance to listen to our brothers' latest updates which we can extend our prayer upon.

I pray that You will continue to bless us in the week to come.

I pray that You will bless Dennis with Knowledge and Wisdom so that he may complete his tasks and construct a plan that will be beneficial to the Youths in his school. May his relationships with his colleagues become better. May You also bless him with good health, strength, perseverance and good time management to juggle his Family, O Levels and work. I pray that Your healing hand and protection be on Emmanuel, that he will stay healthy and break off from the chain of illnesses.

I pray that Your healing hands be on Joe's grandmother who has suffered from a mild stroke recently. May she recuperate quickly, regain her ability of clear speech and mobility.

I pray that Your healing hands be on Chi Wern, Zhi Xiong. May they recover quickly from their illnesses, be it flu or diarrhoea or muscle aches.

I pray that Your healing hands and protection be on Francis. May he recover quickly from his fainting spells and other ailments that's affecting his performance and well-being in National Service. May You guide him to take good care of himself in camp and not over-strain himself.

I would like to pray for Lennel. May Your meticulous nature be on him so that he will pay attention to small details at work and make lesser mistakes.

I would like to pray for Alvin. May Your plans for him be revealed soon. May he find a full-time job soon which will unfold many more opportunities leading to his bright future.

May Your plans and directions for Kelvin be also revealed whether he should take up new job offers or stay at his current job. May Your care be upon him so he do well at his current job and hopefully become a confirmed permanent staff.

May Your plans and directions for Jun Liang be also revealed whether he should pursue his interest and accept an offer to become a photojournalist. May he unlock your blessings, his way be clear of obstacles and fulfil his very own dreams.

I would like to pray for Daniel, may You bless him with diligence with school work. Your Law about sowing what we reap shall not be bent. May You bless Daniel with diligence so he will reap good results from his hard work.

I would like to pray for William, may You bless him with Wisdom, Intelligence and Linguistic understanding for the French language. May he be quick at absorbing French and also continue to do well at his other modules which are harder and at a higher standard now.

I would like to pray for Gary, may You bless him with good health to serve the nation well. May you multiply his time so he can complete his work and make time to come to church where we all miss him.

Lastly, I would like to pray for myself. May Your guidance and protection be on me while I start my first day of attachment tomorrow.

In Jesus' most precious name, Amen.

Thanks A Zillion!

I just wanted to write to thank all of you, The Rice Family. I really cannot thank all of you enough. You helped me out when I had difficulties several weeks ago. You got me, not one but three, birthday presents after knowing me for a short 6 months. Such spirit of giving, I can never imagine. All of you are like the shining stars of God who brightens up the community out there filled with darkness.

I believe this is God's Will for me to learn something... This is also something I want to learn when I came to Christ.

I have always been a selfish person who often hesitate to give to others. I have always looked onto my own needs first before others. I often have limited resources and unlimited wants, that's perhaps why I am unable and uneasy to freely give to others. All of us have our financial constraints but you all can still give cheerfully and freely to help others. I am really overwhelmed by all your kindness... This will be one aspect that I really pray that I will learn and improve on along my journey with God.

Once again, thank all of you very very much for the shirts and pants you bought for my birthday. They really came in time and I truly appreciate them a lot! Thank you also for helping me see and also become a cheerful giver.
