Fire

Yep. That's what i feel like nowadays.

Why? Let me explain.

1st situation.

I saw alot of things lately that make me just want to open up, pray and praise God with everything i have. It's just so joyful. I'm being filled with joy, so much so i know it's not from me. And, really, my steps are so light, especially when i'm sick and out. (i have been falling sick alot lately, again, but somehow it's not deterring me)

Case in point:
  1. Prayer Conference. The prayer movement moved me. It sort of gave me a challenge to not be left out. I feel that if youths from all over Malaysia can prayed like how we did there, where even the seemingly insignificant young pray like they're on fire, in desperation, great times are headed for Malaysia. And just imagine my shock when i heard from Pastor Chew Mei declare similiar things for the adults.
  2. My fellow church youth. I see people rising up to take the challenge. Some are starting to be committed to the youth, and some, unexpected for me, are starting to give their very best, in their capacity, to serve God. And it's more than one. I believe God is creating a new frontier in our youth, distinctively different and more powerful, compared to last time. Even though we seem more short-handed.
  3. GYC. This has never failed to ASTOUND me of late. The move of God is evident there.
  4. Other people in the right places and at the right time. Their passion, enthusiasm, and dedication to serving God's Kingdom.
  5. And just how God is starting to speak to me through talking to people and reading His word ( i have to be honest, i'm not that consistent though.) One example is a few days back, when i feel lost and confused about certain things, i asked God to speak to me. Immediatly i realized that i forgot to read my bible that day. So i opened, and flipped to the Chapter i was supposed to read, and the title hit me like a ton of bricks - Stand Firm.
2nd Situation.

God seem to be leading me towards youth. And He's giving me the passion for it. I don't know why and i don't know how can i serve, BUT whenever i'm with fellow youths, or discussing issues with my MYF president and fellow good friend, Andrew; or with my other fellow good friend, Sheng Yong; or even with other committee members, i am just filled with so much fire and passion i start shaking inside. Even practicing for Easter (i'm co-leading a song), and i shake so badly i just had to grip a fist and close my eyes at some points - and cold sweat like hell. Intercession for them is moving, where i just poured myself out from a source i never knew existed. I'm shocked by what is happening whenever stuffs like this happen.



So, don't blame me for talking non-stop about praying, revival, and about youth. It's just something i am passionate about for no reason sometimes. And it's not psycological, coz it's not me. I know there might be sceptics, but i don't care - coz i know it's real, and from God. It's scary and exciting at the same time.






So all i can say is,

Fire. God is Moving.
