Juz dreamt of my wedding. Its so true, so real dat i really tot it is real. I dreamt of him, being so nice to drive my fren up to ipoh to give the fren's parents a surprise. Am actually very sam tong if he Will be too tired. It is a nite. I slept off on the passenger seat. When i woke up its morning. I asked him to stop by to let me go to the ladies. When i come out, i had the shock of my life. I saw many ppl, all dressed up very very pretty, wif decorations. Saw Mannee in a purple white dress, wif make up n hair do, n Ann Jie oso. Den i have a feeling dat dis is my wedding, a surprise wedding. Was trembling when Ann Jie asked me for help for some deco. Then i saw him, in a pure white suit, comin towards me, kneeling by my side, hugging me, n telling me how much i meant to him, how special am i. I cried like nothing else, heard sin li's voice laughing at me. But i am too joyful, to happy to listen to her. Stood up wif him, n i said i do. Den i woke up. Oh, wat a funny little dream. :)

the experience.
Well, just came back from Dream Factor 1.0 yesterday. Overall, it was a fun and wonderful camp. Was arranged to be the advisor of Group 12, with a bunch of super noisy kids, and 2 very good leaders.
Day 1: Went Cheras early in the morning to fetch Yoke Yen and Hui Yan. Reached church early and had breakfast. Camp started with intro with members and team building games, at night service then sleep. Deric Gor shared well, many people responded to the altar call. The pnw team didnt do well as there is alot of mistakes, we came together to ask for forgiveness from God, prayed for a better preparation and humble heart, alertness for the next service.
Day 2: Woke up at 5am, thanks to the girls, who cant sleep nicely. Either they will be chit chatting whole night, or waking up very very early to bath and stuffs. Went to Taman Pertanian for Dream Hunt. In charging the spiderman game. Thanks to Deric Gor who helped out to set up the game. Waited for quite long before groups of people came to challenge. The most unforgettable will be the last group who came for challenge, 20 mins before ending the game. One of the members being uncooperative, causing my fingers to be injured. :( Overall it was good. The game session ended, and briefing starts. Xing Zai's leg muscle cramp, gotta rub counterpain for him. And it was a super not good experience. Hate those harry leg hairs, who stick on my palm while i rub. Ewwwwwwwwww. Disgusting. The counterpain and dust went into my wound on fingers, and it was definitely very very pain. Special thanks to Si Hong who helped me with alcohol swab and antiseptic. Back to church after that, was dead tired, yet there is jamming session, didnt rest well. The whole PnW team fast and prayed for night service. And indeed, the service was great. 90 percent of the non believers accepted Christ. Praise the Lord. Tze Hoe Gor indeed shared a very good sermon. The team then went out for supper after service before heading back for sleep.
Day 3: Think all of them was really exhausted after the Dream Hunt. All woke up at round 7.30. The team again gathered at 8am for prayer. Service started, Mei Lin Jie shared the sermon. Altar call session, we prayed for every members who responded. The presence of God was just so strong. Could never forget the moment. Service ended. We went to Desa Waterpark. The experience was just so-so. The longest thunderbolt was not as fun as expected, although the line is sooooooo long. Almost died drinking pool water during the wave session, thanks again to Si Hong who borrow me his tube. Well, all I can say is this boy is really a good one, very kind heart he has. :) By clutching to the tube tightly, this has caused my whole body pain for 2 days, till now. :( Moving every inches hurts. Finish having fun at the park, sent my friends home, back church for pnw practice for sun service the next day.
Overall, the camp was really a good one, a very good one. Learnt the spirit of excellence during the camp, being humble and alert. Seen some potential in some of the group leaders, believing that one day they will do great things for God.
Today was a good day too. Pastor Meng defended us during the leaders meeting. He really loved us alot and defend us and talked to the church board. Was really really touched that moment, thanks alot pastor for trusting and supporting us soooo much. Felt bit of regret also, for complaining, for making comments that leaders stress us, yet we dont know that they were even stressful, and yet they still love us and defend us.
Texted pastor, encouraging him and promised to support, love him and keep him in prayers. I love my pastor, as he understands his team member, and he trusted and love us more than anyone else. Thank you Jesus for giving me such a precious opportunity to work together with such a good leader to glorify Your name.
Will continue to keep on, keeping on, work hard, strive hard to win souls for Christ. I am an Army of God!!!

Heart of Worship
I'm coming back to the heart of worship, and its all about You, all about You, Jesus. Amen.
Again, I juz wanna say grace and thank God for giving me the chance to involve in praise n worship ministry, to have the chance in serving him with the keyboard together with the team.
I used to have the thinking that my ministry is a 2nd class ministry, where my presence is not really important (where if there is me then the music becomes nicer, but without me it doesnt affect much). I could not really cope with the team, where i always think that the guys (musicians) have their special way of communication, and i could not understand n join in the conversation.
Went to FGA again few days ago for a praise n worship seminar with Redo. Missed the 1st session, but I thank God i went to the 2nd one. Was juz bak from Singapore n JB on thurs, and i went straight to the seminar. Feeling really tired, I am not really really excited at first. However, things changed when Redo started singing worship, and when he started sharing. His voice is sooooooo anointed, and i really could feel the presence of God when he sang the first line. I learned alot from his sharing, he is really humble, cute and always smiling throughout the session. He shared his life testimony, and I was amazed by his life story, and also how great is our God to use a person like him, who came from a really really broken family. He used to be a nobody, he learned music on his own, until now he can sing any songs on the spot wif his guitar, and also compose songs which are sang throughout countries. I still remember each and every word that he speaks. He is famous, yet he does not steals the glory of God. He seems to be nobody, but God makes him a somebody.
The first worship song he sang: "I'm coming back to the heart of worship, and its all about You, all about You, Jesus", and his sharing that the one that we are ministering should be God, not men. And then I realised, its all about Jesus. No matter the presence of me is important or not in the eyes of men, no matter how small the contribution i gave, its all about Jesus, and it matters to God. Suddenly, I felt so blessed, so loved by God, and so proud and happy that i am in the worship team, that i could use the keyboard to worship. Suddenly, i feel so grateful that i can play the keyboard, and the feelings of 2nd class juz disappear as i know i am precious in the eyes of God, and he enjoyed my ministry :)
And thus, I could start to serve with a renewed heart, a joyful one. I enjoyed worshipping him, enjoyed the presence of Jesus, as the song sounds " Jesus, Your presence is heaven to me".
Secretly, i've made a promise to God. I wanna make pnw ministry as my first ministry. I juz wanna live my life worshipping God. I wanna continue to learn different styles in playing piano, improve my skills, getting a new keyboard, a real 2nd keyboard with synthesizer, so that i can play nice music, not for men but for Jesus.
Love you, Jesus.

Process of Learning :)
Had a great chance to go to FGA CYC last week to learn from their pnw team, to see how they practice, how they conduct each songs, arrangements of songs.......
Learned alot through see-ing how the 2nd keyboardist plays..
The whole team have a very very strong team spirit, each trying to cover each up and help each other during the jamming..
They have a very strong team, alot of professionals, very humble attitudes and strong bond among each other, a very strong sense of unity, which let dem plays songs out sooooo fluently..
Frankly, i was really impressed by the whole team, the whole church..
Had been to FGA for quite a number of time, but I didnt really have a good look at the church..
That Thursday, I had a very good chance to be on the stage, to see the view of the hall from the stage..
It is just toooo magnificent! Too grand, and too good to be true!
I guess our team is really excited too, and our team leader, sis Jessie start to ask us to visualise, to imagine that 1 day, our team will also have the chance to stand on such a grand stage, leading thousands and thousands of God's people to come forward and worship Him..
Last wed, we again felt really honoured to have Ps Daniel Chong and his team, the band leader cum bassist, Joshua, CK, a very very very good singer, Robin and David the twins, which are also the band's guitarist and drummer, and lastly, Chin Foong, the music director and pianist in the band..
The nite started of with me getting a good chance to serve the servants of God, by preparing some foods and drinks for them.. I'm even lucky to get the chance to make coffee for Ps Daniel and his bro Joshua.. :P
We started off our fellowship at the hall by reviewing our pnw for last sat, and Ps Daniel gave us very good advices on how to improve it, no matter is on the hardware side, or the software part.. He reminded us a very good thing, that we should worship God, and not worship worship..
Next, the team was divided into 2, where all the vocalist went up into the resource room upstairs and have their own practice with Ps Daniel and CK.. The rest of us, the musicians stayed bak on stage to have a fellowship with the band members of CYC.. The practice started of with bro Joshua praising us, saying that we played well for the song ''Ku kan Terbang", but improvement is needed for "Betapa Dalamnya", as it sounds a bit messy on the instrumental part.. So, the band members of CYC den demonstrates and show us how to play the song, to be more clean n clear.
This is where the best part comes. (*well, dont think aside, its just a practice) Ching Foong came beside me and played the 2nd keyboard part for the song. I was so excited as I tot he should be playing for Jason. :P I stared at his fingers running all over the keyboard for the whole song.. I should say he was really AWESOME! I've noticed him last time during the conferences, noticed that he is a really good keyboard player, but the first time standing so near and watching him plays was just too great.. :D The way he plays the keyboard, i've never played anything like dat.. Think Chan Mei Jie was excited too as she starts to throw him tons n tons of question after that, even taking his phone number :P Then it become my turn again to play the 2nd keyboard, trying very hard to recall wat he had played, and how to play it out. I became soooooo nervous dat i could not remember wat he had played. Only started to pick up my confidence and press the keys when I look down the stage, searching for him, n he gives me eye contact signalling me to press da keys. The feeling is juz so, hmmmmmm, wat word should i use to describe.. Safe? Dont really know how come i get across with such feelings, but anyways, yea, that is it.. :P Continued with worship, while waiting for the vocalists to come down.. He teaches me to use the bell pad, or the strings to fill in the song, to insert emotions into the songs by playing in ways.. *Found out that he is a final year student of ICOM, and could play the piano, guitar, violin and cello well, thus he was so good in music la, obviously.. :P
Lastly, there comes the time to say goodbye. I believe the band still have alot of things to share with us, but due to time constrain, that is all they could give for the time being. Still, I feel really blessed and thank God for putting me in the team, and giving me chances and opportunities to learn from others.. It was really an awesome fellowship, stirring up my spirit till today.. I trully believe that this sat's service will be filled with God's glory, a very thick presence of Holy Spirit.
Thank God for all that You have given me, keep the spirit of learning and excitement in me so that i will serve you and your people happily, without any complaints or sadness.
I wanna play songs of love, just for You.. :) Love you, sweet Jesus.
