u may notice tt the points are excatly different, i mean of course they will be la but notice the difference and i reallie spent time thinking tru the false self pat... itz like so much reminder, and what i am now... bad bad bad... but who says tt the road is going to be a smooth one? itz a narrow and winding road for goodness sake... but we must endure... =D
after the church camp and taiwan trip, have seen mani ppl picking up and wanting to strive towards Christ likeness... i reallie pray tt this is not just a spark athat will go off, but a spark tt will ignite the rest of the ppl around... yes and tt goes for mi too... =D
jia you CYYAM, and everyone reading this... =D may the Good Lord use us as He may, to start a revival in ourselves, CYYAM and GBC... =D
