A tribute to mentors

It's shepherd appreciation day.
I want to write a line or 2 in honour of the ppl that have shaped my life along the years.

  • Pa and Mom - My father is an exemplary spiritual leader of the house, spiritual leader in the church, natural leader in the community. What better thing can be said of a full-grown man? He is compassionate and motivational. From him stems my passion to fulfill my God-given potential and do thing excellently. From him comes the spiritual insights and the life example of a working professional who serves God so fully and is humble, stable, yet passionate for God always.Mom...I've had a post about her already in 2007[check it out]. Thank God for your investment into my life all the time, since I was a baby. My training in the arts, in books and reading, in life-skills, in budgeting, in the Word of God.

  • Uncle David James and Aunty Susan - Godpa and Godma, thank you for always caring and providing a safe emotional haven for me. Your generosity and hugs will never be forgotten...Love you.
  • Mel - We've had plenty of ups and downs. We've been through thick and thin. But you've always tried to care and exhort me with sound advice and present different ideas/perspectives. Thank you for shaping my life. Thank you for making me stronger in character.
  • Yong Hui - You're so sold out for the Kingdom and so in love with God. Your countless spiritual insights, your books that you readily lent and gave me, your wisdom and counsel, your maturity and caution have enriched my life. Please keep on serving the King. Your calling is great!
  • Peter Truong - What can I say but to be mentored personally by Peter for 3 years has been such an honour and privilege? Yours was the ministry umbrella that I discovered and starting living my potential in evangelism and outreach, in the prophetic and in missions. Thank you so much. For always believing in me, for always giving me a platform, for your prayers and concern.
  • Lai Ling - The emotionally safe, and the compassion giver in times of doubt, discouragement and turmoil. The ultimate forgiver, the powerfully prophetic, the fountain of love....I have a post on her too!
  • Belle and Lance - For candidness, encouragement, sensitivity in the Spirit and concern showed especially in my times of doubt. For passion for the things of God modelled!
  • Natalie - Nat, it is so refreshing to have someone go before me and understand me in so many ways. You're one of the few I can stomach rebukes from, because you always encourage and inspire at the same time. Thank you for prayers, silliness, tickles, honesty, firmness and love.....
Thank you and love you all.

Love Alicia...but....

I've loved Alicia Keys since I was a teenager. She's gorgeous, talented, with an impeccable image of ghetto funkiness plus classy elegance. Love her voice and love her ideas. But....the lyrics....have more often than not been ...disappointing. I do think this article provides accurate critique of her work.

More Faith....in a GOOD GOD

Today, Miss '爆炸头' - a.k.a Winnie, a chick with a HUGE afro-ish Scary Spice hair-do prayed for me. She doesn't know me, but turned around after service and offered to pray for me. A few things came up during the prayer. She didn't specifically prophesy. But the way she was praying, she was getting stuff from the Spirit. She prayed Prov 4:18 ( The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day)  over me, for some time, stating that God would lead me, and the path would become brighter and brighter, clearer and clearer. I was to have faith. More faith that God would lead me safely and surely. She also stated the need to seek God even more through prayer for his presence and guidance (guilty. It's been difficult to be disciplined about prayer). She prayed and declared that my work would be the platform for many good things God wanted to do through me. The work and the position I had in my work was important, she...
