it's amazing watching what God's doing in our net! =D
we've been talkin about
the marks of a disciple. do recall guys!
1. disciples are called
2. disciples are
commited to the person of Jesus (tee hee.. we always forget this one)
3. disciples remain in Christ
4. disciples have the Father's heart
5. discples bear fruit
6. discples glorify God and not themselves
yupp.. n yesterday ezekiel taught a rly gd lesson n led a rly fruitful discussion. super uber happy seein how everyone's openin up, volunteerin answers n like seriously discussin la. haha. =D great job ezekiel, despite havin such a bad week at sch..
den shared abit abt
Prayer. we read this short lil extract from one of my fav books.
Prayer
When Aslan sends Digory and Polly on the back of the flying horse Fledge in quest of the silver apple, they stop for the night in a valley in the heart of the mountains. The children are hungry, and Digory wonders why no arrangement was made for their meals.
“I’m sure Aslan would have, if you’d asked him,” said Fledge.
“Wouldn’t he knows without being asked?” said Polly.
“I’veno doubt he would,” said the Horse… “But I’ve a sort of idea he likes to be asked.”
It’s as if Fledge has read the words of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount: “For your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask of Him.”
If God knows our needs before we ask, why does he want us to ask. I can see two reasons. First, it’s a matter of alignment. God wants us to want what he knows we should have. He wants out mind to get in step with his and recognize our needs through his perspective. Out prayers show how closely we are aligned – or not. Second, God wants us to pray for what he wants to give so we will acknowledge him as the source of all we have. Prayer for our needs expresses our awareness of our continual dependence on him. An the more we pray and see how prayers are answered, including which are answered, which are not, the closer we come to the mind of God and learn to blend our wills with his.
ok n best part. even worship! has always been a struggle. cause i get seriously rly scared 2 play e guitar durin worship, my left hand will grasp e neck rly tightly. but amelia's been so great with helpin with e singing through simple things like helpin e others know when to come in wen they're leadin worship.
yay!! i love my net!!

Youth Workday on 3 May! Since the last workday, A GREAT BIG thank you to all who came to help out:
Male Toilets Department: Henry (the strong uncle), Cliff (the most experienced toilet-cleaner) and Ezekiel (the efficient water-swiper).
p.s. Ezekiel went off before we could take his photo
The female toilets department: Shenzhi (the glam auntie), Shuyi (the brave toilet-bowl cleaner) and Me (almost fainting from exhaustion).
p.s. Shuyi also, left before we could take photo la
The Mop-sters! Pamella (leaning on the mop for strength)
Zhini and Michelle (having a mop-war haha)
Lastly, the Vacuum Department: Jermyn (with the hot pink flowery haversack), Ian (the man in black behind) and Waihong (hand resting on the vacuum cleaner).
Once again, thank you everybody who came to help out! After 1.5hrs, we all managed to transform the dusty carpet into clean green 'grass', the dirty floors into beautiful shining tiles and the disgusting toilet bowls into sparkling white seats! (well, cept for THAT toilet bowl which is really gone-case haha. ask the toilets department if you wanna know the story of THAT toilet bowl. EEEWWWW *faints*)
God bless everybody!

people are complaining how come our net blog isn't updated!! haha!! okok, me shall post some stuff then=)
firstly, yesterday's joke of the day. or it can remain joke of the day for quite some time. there's a long story behind it, but yes! as you have guessed, its from our master shakespear cliff tan!!
we were having big time combine simei-siglap net at xian's house. so there was this instance when cliff went to the toilet. then shenzhi wanted to go toilet too. and she switched on (in her perception) the lights when actually, she was switching off the lights. i know it sounds confusing, but the thing is, shenzhi switched off cliff's toilet lights. and when cliff came out, he said this really cliff thing, "i thought it was judgement day." jean, becky, sarah, and shenzhi were the people who heard it and they laughed like madness. then after that, cliff said, "eh, this is serious la. when you pee and judgement day comes, its scary." its so cliff!!
okok. loads of pictures and videos (i think) to be uploaded. mostly with xian thank you! so whoever has the pictures and videos please upload onto this post ty!
jean reporting=)
