090313!


Today marks my 19th birthday, together with my quadruplet siblings! Thought that I could dedicate this post just to thank God for all He has done, has been doing, and will continue to do in the following days to come.

Since the day of our birth, the Lord’s hand has been upon me and my siblings. At that instant, some may comment that we are too small, too light, and too frail, but still, I have no doubt that we’re fearfully and wonderfully made by our Daddy God who loves us so much. Thankful for the times that my mum actually prayed for us constantly too, wanting us to be healthy and living well. She’s really a great woman of faith, and I thank God that He is alive, a God of miracles, and He constantly answer prayers.

Through the years, God has brought me out of different storms and never fails to show me that He has great plans for me and my family. It’ll be a lie if I said life was smooth sailing back then – in actual fact, it was one of the toughest periods of my life, having lived in the wilderness. Nevertheless, I thank God for the breakthroughs and promises that had, and will come to pass in the future. One of which is my 4 long years awaited water baptism! So happy that God has opened the doors and blessed me so much!

Having come back from a stagnant relationship with God since 4 years back, I celebrate the milestones and growth that has taken place through my walk with Him. Yes, I do have such a big area to grow in God still, but having looked back and reflected, I knew that God has always been with me all these while, pouring out deeper revelations and allowing me to encounter His love. I love the way how God has been holding my hand, leading me through different seasons and stages of growth. I’m humbled and overwhelmed by the goodness and love of God.

Here are my birthday wishes (or rather, prayer requests). Hope that you who are reading this can pray alongside with me about these too!
1) A deeper heart revelation, intimacy, joy-filled and love encounter with the Holy Spirit
2) Constantly growing and living in love, and discover my spiritual giftings
3) Revival in Singapore ftw!
4) I will love to have a NLT, NRSV, MSG and AMP physical lightweight hardcopy bible (though it’s really my heart’s desire to have every version of every bible so that I can reference haha)
5) Books wishlist: The Heart Of Worship files, Matt Redman. The Heavenly Man, Brother Yun. Restricted Nations: North Korea, The Voice of the Martyrs with P. Todd Nettleton.
6) I need a bigger space mp3 actually haha (like 16GB or 32GB iPod classic? Lol *hint hint* haha)
7) Eh new guitar and can plug in one? Haha
8) I saw this “Woman of God” hoodie and I actually want to purchase this, but I can’t find the link! :(((
Thankful for Jesus, thankful for life! To the awesome days and journey ahead, cheers! :D (Jesus is awesome woohoo!)
Psalm 136:1 - Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.
