Today is the most mentally tiring day i've ever had this term. Haha, firstly i had 2 tests back-to-back, physics common test and chemistry class test. Hopefully i pass the physics test, i'm quite sure i'll fail the chemistry one though (obviously), anyways, other than that today was pretty slack.
I just finished up my Maths tutorial 14 and i'm gonna do my PW now and probably stop to do Economics then resume PW tomorrow after the GP learning journey and maybe after physics tuition also.
ARGH, maths tuition tomorrow morning at 5! better sleep earlyyyyy...

Today was a very significant day for me. I'll tell the world one thing, i always "gave up" my life for Jesus. But in the end, i always fall back and fall for temptations. But today, something else happened, and when i say something else, i MEAN something else.

The day started pretty okay, with me watching bits of troy when i woke up. Then it was on to church in my yellow ACJC collegiate shirt. Today's speaker at YM was this German-American guy called Gunther Mueller, when i saw him, i knew it was going to be a fun sermon. So he basically told us about his life and how he became what he was today. It was pretty interesting. But the interesting thing happened later.

You know how sometimes at these christian concerts, or evangelical conferences, they ask people to go up front to reaffirm their faith, refocus their life, or if you havent already, accept christ. Well today was another one of those days for me, don't get me wrong, as i've said earlier in this post, i always "gave up" my life, but somehow or another i always fell back. Okay, so yeah, okay.. we were sitting on the ground (me and my CG) and there was this invitation at the end of the sermon, for people to come forward and reaffirm and refocus their lives. Well, i wanted to, i wanted so badly, but so many thoughts came rushing into my head, like "what if i fall back again?" "why is there no one else going there?it'll be embarrassing if i go up myself" In the end i thought to myself, this is my one chance, i can do it. But my body just wouldnt move, i wanted to. but i couldn't. then i thought, maybe after the whole thing i could go up to him and talk to him. But then, after the closing song(which was amazing love), he opened up another chance again, for people to come forward and pray. Then i waited again, cos i went through a brief moment of thought again, like "it'd be so embarrassing if i went up" But then, they kept on singing the song "amazing love" and this part of the song struck me, it went "amazing love, how can it be? that you my king would die for me?" Then the words just went inside me, and i thought, "WOW, God gave his only Son for me, and Jesus died for us. Yet I, a common man, couldn't even just walk to the front stage and do it." And so it was, i walked right up and knelt down.

Soon, 2 hands touched my shoulders and 2 people started praying, one of them was Gunther himself and i wanted to thank him, but after the whole i felt so weird. Anyways, I knelt down, and maybe some of you know, kneeling is not exactly the most comfortable position to be in, soon, my muscles started cramping up, my legs were totally folded, so my calf muscles were dying, but then, for a moment when Gunther was praying to me about me taking that step again, the pain just sort of went away and i just knelt there longer. Oh and, i dont know why, but i was shaking also while i was praying, maybe it was because i wanted God so much, i wanted His love, and i wanted to repay His love, but up till now i dont know how.

Anyway, i was shaking and my hands were clasp very tight. I almost cried i think. I feel, that of all the times when i said in my heart that i wanted God and Jesus in my life, of all the times i went up was because my friends did so too, of all the times i went up because i wanted to be an example to another friend..this time, this time it was real, i wanted God the most, i did it for myself, i didn't do it to impress anyone, i didn't do it to show people i'm a man, i did it for myself. All this is true, it happened to me, Lukas Marc Lee, on the 27th of July 2008, at 11.00 AM.

After they prayed for me, i wanted to get up cos my muscles were dying, but i couldnt seem to stand up, instead i just kept on kneeling down and i just couldnt seem to get up, my mind was clear, i knew what i wanted. When pastor Alvin gave an invitation to the crowd to those who wanted prayer, for those who wanted something (sorry i can't remember). He split the congregation into 2, i went to 1 group. But that wasn't really anything.

When i finally stood up, i felt so good, i felt so new. I felt very clear and light. Other than the pins and needles in my leg, i felt very good.

And this time, i will not fall back, i will love God with all my heart. I will not stray. I will not allow myself to be influenced by my friends but rather I will influence my friends.I know what i must do.

Oh and, to tell you something funny, i was shaking as i was typing this.

Okay, on a less spiritual note, i finished my physics! haha, or at least i think i did. No tuition today cos gary cancelled it (no surprise).

Oh and, the verse for next month has been decided, i shall tell it now though its abit early...

I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galations 2:20

I picked this verse because, i think it has all the relevance to me today. in fact, it wont be my monthly verse, it will be my verse forever.

To those reading this blog and to those who know me. I have changed today, i may not be the guy i used to be. Please, do not make me fall back.

Once again...I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galations 2:20

BOO! haha, i'll never forget that opening by some of my friends.

Okay, had physics SPA period today, but i used the time to do chinese and some other stuff, 1/4 of the class was sleeping, 1/2 of the remaining 3/4 were talking/playing. 1/2 of that 1.2 remaining were doing other work, and the last few were listening. HAHA
PW period after that, discussed roughly our WR.
Physics lecture today was about superposition, and Young's double slit experiment.
Break was okay, ate curry zhoufrom the yong tau foo stall, which was nice.
Had chem consultation today, really sorry that i didn't prepare anything for chem consultation, just couldnt really find the time to do so. BUT i WILL try to make time.
Wanted to go for some thing after school, but decided against it and waited for ama to bus home together, met some of her bestie's and yeah, haha. i think canoeing could be FUN...

Hey world, sorry i haven't been really posting much, and i shan't start now either because i really can't recall what has happened this past week, except for a few matters of course.
Anyway, i've been appointed Section Leader(SL) of the ACCO tanbo group. Irvin is President and Chow is Vice, kudos to them and to all who got a post, whether or not it was what we wanted or not, we should be happy and content with what we've got.
Anyway, last sunday went to Gerald's/Bryan's place for "PW" haha...
Monday erm, didn't go school, but went for i-ming's MEP thingy and got scolded cos i'm apparently not supposed to turn up in the afternoon even though i feel better.
Tuesday was just as uneventful, mainly cos i had blueslip from 1.50 onwards to be released for i-ming's thingy again... I think Ms Leong is a VERY nice lady btw...
Wednesday nothing to report, just had CO in a classroom and yeah...
Thursday(today) Ran in the rain to go for PYCO, got drenched and still practiced, made 2 new friends.
Yep.that's basically it, i'm very tired now but... i have a HUGE load of hmwk to complete. dang...

Hey guys, today had some Leadership thingy, it was quite boring to be honest. but i guess its all beneficial. Something funny happened today, after the programme, i went to sit outside the CO room, then ell and ama came along, ama put her notes and bag down to go toilet, after that, ama went off forgetting her notes, then i called K and spoke to ama to tell her that her notes had been left behind, then she cam back, when she came back i asked for her no. then she left again, WITHOUT her notes, it was DAMN funny, she was so absent minded i just couldnt believe it. But anw, yeah.. HAHA funny funny funny, and no, you're not that great =)

EH! crap! i forgot to blog about the verse of the month. Well, for this month i've decided it'll be "I thank my God upon every remembrance of you" Phil 1:3.
The verse is right on top of my com btw, so i kinda see it everyday... But i've never really taken the time to read it and digest it, but i will soon.

Anyway, happy Youth Day peeps! May those who go JC catch up on all that lost sleep, (esp someone whom i know who woke up at 12 noon?). I however woke up at 730 to do some work and wait for the tutor, he was such a nice guy, but his methods are very old i guess, i couldnt really comprehend what he was saying, maths on the other hand i think i'll keep maths. Everything is so clear now, i will never understand how i did so badly for maths...
1st draft for EoM is done, i sent it to Michael for printing (my official printer). HAHA!
I'm going to do chem now, while listening to songs... currently its Every Move I Make. Nightz peeps...



I thank my God upon every remembrance of you Philippians 1:3

"The church of Jesus Christ is not a pleasure boat, but a lifeboat for saving souls. And every hand is needed on deck. How do we launch lifeboats and how do we get all hands on deck? There is no other agenda. It's harvest time, and woe if we do not harvest." -Reinhard Bonnke

There was a short video clip played at YM today, it sorta sums up to what is above^^.
I think it is pretty true, but the only problem is, we do not want to leave the pleasureboat, we think that being a christian is all good and comfy for us, but it is not, or at least that is not what it was meant to be, being a christian means than we should save people, not stay behind the lines where we know it's safe, we have to go out of our comfort zone and save people.

Passion AC also had a similar meaning. Matthew 16:24 "Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me."" In the same way, denying ourselves means to give up everything and be a SLAVE to God, the thing is, many of us live such good lives, that we do not want to be slaves, we do not want to give up all our possessions, all our dreams. But that is what we must do to follow God, deny ourselves...

Even I have this problem denying myself, i want to do it, but the materialistic person in me doesn't want to. This is so messed up...

Hearts aflame or not?

Hey guys! It's the weekend! And a long one too! (due to youth day on monday)

Anyway, last night was passion AC, saw J there and Neil and a few others. The speaker was pretty good, his name was Hanson if i'm not wrong, very engaging la most of the time, i think thats why he was so good. The songs we sang were not too bad, but the band could use a bit more coordination...

Went to KAP after with Mike and Irvin, waited for Ianyang, talked abit, about how one small thing could change such a big thing.. Pure stupidity, amazing...

deny yourself, take up your cross, follow Christ
