1st January 2016

Today marks the beginning of 2016. Am thankful for year 2015, a year full of joy and tears, but through it all God has been very very gracious to me.
So much things happened throughout the year, from Haggai National Seminar, to Haggai International, which made me enforced a decision to quit my job without knowing what's really next, to the step of faith in Sabah, and then back to Penang now...all these bittersweet experience would always remain so so dear in my heart.
I had learned and experienced much things where not many would go through, 8 months without the lucrative salary, surviving in villages whereby everything is so basic, travelling alone to and fro unfamiliar places, meeting and talking with strangers, preaching and giving altar calls...all these are really not expected...but it happened and these experiences had make me stronger than before because God had became so real to me. I feel sad that I could never share this with a friend so close to me, because so much of friction happened, that things would never be the same again. But I pray, one day...the glory of God will be revealed.
This 2016 would be again a very significant year for me, up to this point, I am still clueless what's ahead of me. It's really a beginning of a journey of faith. I know if I cannot overcome this burden on me, I can never soar in ministry. I pray God will give me the strength and help me to rise above all the situation. I know with God I can do all things. Past 2 months have been really a struggle for me emotionally. Suddenly I lost everything it seems. So lost that I almost fell into depression, but God brought me through it. There are times again the thought of God, please take me home came, but deep inside me I know not the time, life is such a journey that no matter we like it or not we have to move on, so rather move on happily and look for the positive in all things. I knew God had changed me a lot, the process of peeling off everything that is not pleasing to Him, process of refinement, and I am still pretty much work in process. One day when I see Him, I know that I am beloved child of God, that He has always assure me and give me the strength to carry on. 
Do continue to pray that God will confirm to me what He really wants me to do for His kingdom as I desire always to serve Him in full capacity. I know that it's always a journey and never the destination first. For those who have been following me on this blog, would also appreciate if you would to pray for me and be in partnership with me along the way. Thank you for all your prayers and support. I know without all the prayers offered to Abba, I would not be where I am not..
Have a blessed new year 2016 !
