A Letter

My dearest Jesus,

Just wanna let you know how precious You are to me. I don't think I say it often enough. And sometimes I forget. Thank you for Your grace this season, for showing me more of Yourself, and re-affirming me in so many ways.

I look back and realise that many times You were there with me, faithfully guarding my heart, even as I was unawares. Sometimes, I sought You not knowing You were there already. I am so grateful to You Lord. Thank you for that confidence You've given me, to continually desire to rest in Your presence. Thank you for the gifts you have already given, in love and even anticipation!

O Jesus! How much You love me! You love me so much that You gave. You desired me and came for me. Had a wonderful time with You last Sunday service. I never get tired of hearing You say how much You love me.

And in many ways Lord, I still fall. But there is such security because You are not there to condemn me. You just love me. It's so tempting to look to myself and see how unworthy I am, how undeserving of Your death I am. And I know these thoughts are lies. I remind myself (I suppose that's why You tell me to gird my mind, and bring every thought into the obedience of Christ) that it is not what I do. It is who I am. I am born-again. Washed by Your blood. Declared the righteousness OF GOD in Christ Jesus.

Daily, I pray Jesus, to know You more and more. Give me more revelation of Your worth, Your deity, Your insurpassable love for me. I'm learning to just look to You more and more. And to behold Your glory and beauty. I know You are doing a good work in me, transforming me from glory to glory, even as I behold the face of my beloved.

You are faithful my Jesus. And You love me passionately. Do you know how reassured I am that I know these truths? It is through Your grace that You have rooted me in these. Thank you for Pastor Prince Lord. For bringing me to NCC and giving me a Pastor who is courageous to preach the gospel in all its glory! Surely You have restored the years the locusts have eaten, and restored it all the more! You have given me the spirit of faith and revelation! You have taught me, in all things, to look to You and not circumstances.

Even now, You're still teaching me, loving me into the revelation of Your shalom that You have given me. Giving me a daily revelation of my identity and power in You. You have given me boldness and love, authority and power on earth as in heaven. I will be bold to declare Your name, to wield the power of the victory purchased for me at the cross. I'll never want to let Your death for me be in vain by being cowed by what I see. Set Your reality in my heart. Set eternity in my heart. Let everything I experience be filtered through Your cross Lord. Show me more of Yourself in the Word, in my life.

Until I am lost in Your love, till I am found in Your presence, worshipping before Your throne. Found by Your glory, entering into Your flow. How precious this moment, Lord I want You to know.

It's You, You who have won my heart
Taken me into Your arms
Comforted me like a friend...
Your love, surrounded me from the start
I'll never want to be apart
From You ever again.


Your beloved :)

Blessed Hokkien Christmas!

For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only begotten Son

Let's celebrate and cheer and make merry and sing! To remember the birth of our Messiah!

Merry Christmas!

The Passover

"It was Jehovah's feast, an expression of His own peculiar joy in the great event of which it was a shadow, and His redeemed people were gathered around Him to share that joy in His presence. What a wonderful thought is this! Jehovah keeping a feast in anticipation of the death of Christ! This passes our finite thought: we cannot comprehend it. What that death in all its fullness was to Him, no saint or angel can ever know. There were communications between Golgotha and the highest heaven, unknown and unknowable to man. That dying Sufferer was Jehovah's only son. That obedient, submissive Victim was the Lamb of God. That melted, tender heart, was the only heart on earth that ever and always beat true to God. Even in the hour of His darkest, deepest woe, He trusted in His God. 'He became obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross,' and that in a world where disobedience to God had reigned supreme. That perfect obedience unto death; that complete surrender; that unswerving devotion, was a 'sweet savour' unto God. The Cross was a feast to Jehovah. It gave Him back more than sin had robbed Him of. Yes, blessed be God, there was that in the death of God's perfect, spotless Lamb which satisfied all His desires, and brought eternal salvation to all His people."

A hymn for thought....

"To Calvary, Lord, in spirit now
Our joyful souls repair,
To dwell upon Thy dying love,
And taste its sweetness there."


and another...


"No longer far from Him, but now
By precious blood made nigh;
Accepted in the Well-Beloved,
Near to God's heart we lie."
