The Chronicles of a Cell Leader

Was doing my devo this morning and got captured by 2 verses.

Will share 1 here today.

Proverbs 27:6 (New King James Version)

⁶ Faithful are the wounds of a friend,
But the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

As a cell leader, this is often the dilemma that I face.
When a cell member is found committing a certain sin, I will have no doubt that discipline has to take place for those who does not repent. However, a million questions will arise from my little pastoral heart.

Questions like... Can he bear the weight of the discipline? Will he get into depression? Will he give up and turn away from God after this? Or even is my leadership the right way?
Well, very often, I would find my answer in 1 line - The strong shall remain.

Today, yours truly is very encouraged by Pro 27:6
Thinking about it, Zacchaeus was not being comforted by Jesus when he was convicted of his sin.
Rather, Jesus allowed him to pay back to all those whom he has took from in many folds.
Jesus did not said "Oh, I understand how you feel. As long as you feel sorry, that's enough."
Jesus still wanted Zaccheaus to pay the price for the sins that he committed.

A lot of times we may try to make our friends comfortable when they are convicted. Or we would even shut an eye as a pastoral leader.
But beware, for you might be giving your friends a kiss as an enemy.
Sometimes the holy spirit is working through our friend and things need to be uncomfortable.
So don't ever try to make things comfortable for him and destroy the plans of God in his life.

I always say this to my cell members, even people may hate you, but if you love them, you need to help them change and come out from the ungodly lifestyle.


After all, faithful are the wounds of a friend.

Confession of a daugther.

21 years ago, because of a woman, I was here in this world.
Even before I was born, she stood strong and insisted to my dad that she would not abort me.
Since then, all her life, she spent raising me and my brother.
From the milk powder to the exercise books in school, she spend every single cent of her salary.
Her life was all about us.
Few years later, dad left and it wasn't a peaceful one.
She held on to life, facing all the gossips and humiliation of the people, financial burdens that she has to bare alone, words can never be enough to tell what she has went through.
Every day she sends us to school and goes to work, sometimes 2 jobs.
She tried selling art materials, teaching art classes etc. Or maybe more that I didn't know.
With the little time left, she took care of our meals and everything we needed.
She was the handyman at home. Took care of the lights, clogged drainage, leaking ceiling, everything!
As a woman, she has to go to the car workshop alone. Stay there for hours to wait for the fix cause there's no one there to send her home.
As a mother, she tried her best to cover the role of a father. She brought us for vacations, drove us outstation all alone.
And I know, every night she would cry alone in her bedroom.

She could have re-marry for life to be easier. Find a man who would take care of all of us.
But she didn't. Because she didn't want us to have another complicated family.
Everything was because of us.


I am forever grateful beyond words.
My dream is to give her the best life ever in the coming days.
I love my mother.

Any resemblance? ;)

New Day. New Drink. New Diet.

Yours truly have been finding various methods for improving my health lately and thus decided to start the Paleo Diet.

What's a Paleo Diet? It's basically no carbs, no grains, no dairies and no processed food(including box juices).
In other words, it's Paloelitic Diet - Eating like a caveman.
Google can tell you more about it.

So it's my first day! And guess what, I failed terribly in the morning due to the opening of Gong Cha in SS15. =P

*very hard to resist!*

So here's my happy cup of Gong Cha Signature Milk Oolong Tea! I am satisfied!

Ps: The price is Rm6.90 for a cup including pearls. It's the same with Chatime but it's WAY BETTER! :D

Aight. Starting late is better than not starting at all right? hee.... So here's my first paleo meal of the day: Carrot Apple Tomato Half Boiled Egg Salad with no dressings!

Well.... The egg's supposed to be hard boiled.. But the stove at home is simply not working.. And I've left the egg in a pot of hot water for more than 30mins.. So I decided to take it out anyhow. The taste's not bad! You can try it out but make sure your egg is fresh k?

*pats own shoulders, great start for day 1!*

Cravings. Everyday

Do I consider myself as a bubble tea fan? Maybe.
But I don't like those honeydew or watermelon flavors.
I'm in for the Milk Tea. (I think it's a taste bud inherited from my dad)

What's my no.1 craving? Taa Daa....
Fell in love with it when I had it in SG.
Just learnt that they're in M'sia now! I mean soon in a few days time.
Boy I'm shoooo excited. Even dreamt of it's opening in my dreams yesterday. :P
Can't wait to give you a sip my dear Gong-Cha

Crying out from my little heart*

*close my eyes and hold my hands tight*

Dear God, I really really wish I can study abroad. My final year's in a few month's time. Just a year. Only 1 year. Please?

Amen.

爱

单方面的爱真的很累。。但爱是个选择。。再不可爱的人我们依然能够选择爱他。。这是爱的力量，爱的伟大!

对我而言。。爱不只是“我爱你”三个字。。它不是个感觉。。不是种心情。。

往往人都使用“期盼”衡量爱。
“我期盼他体谅我，我期盼他会在我生日时给我一个惊喜，我期盼她会为我付出。。。。”
当对方配合不了我们的期盼，我们就觉得爱情变质了。。从前的甜蜜不见了。。

怎么觉得这爱好自私啊？

别人常说 －》 我爱你 ＝ 我要你永远在我身边

对我而言 －》 我爱你 ＝ 我愿意为你付出一切
