Been a long time...

Been quite a long time that I have blogged and what have I been doing?
Been doing lots of self reflection and thought, it's time to take a "Blog-break".

Lots have been happening in my life since Paradize Live which was on 2nd Nov.
Cause of the 2 holidays on 1st and 3rd, I managed to spend time at home PLUS managed to spend time with God.
Been such a long time that I had a chit-chat session that after some time, I realised how much I have "ignored" that small voice.

Actually, I wanted to give Paradize Live concert a miss but the good got the better out of it.
And boy... Am I glad to be there! The pastor of that church delivered a powerful testimony.
He shared about his life that was going downwards TILL he start to PRAISE God despite all circumstances.
When he started to praise God, it was when the miracle started!
The miracle didn't start when his life start turning for the better but it started when he started praising God.

And from Yanz blog and my friends who attended the workshop the next day, the pastor shared about how important it is for us to remain positive all the time and always say Yes to God even though you want so much to say No.

Yes... Correct.
What did I learn?
I learn to step out in faith and share about something personal that has been bothering me big time to my dear shepherd.
I confess... It was real scary having to share something personal but then, I have also come to understand that breakthroughs and healing come from the time we decide to say Yes to God and No to ourselves.

And the prayer meet last Friday? It brought me even closer to God...
I believe many will feel the way I feel.
I was especially ministered when there was a blackout.
No one panicked.
Instead, voices were raised and hands were outstretched.
It's amazing, real amazing.
I felt God telling me "San, you are so important to me. I know you individually and I know you. I know your struggle and I know you. And I love you. And you know? I am walking together with you."
That assurance is like "Woah!"

Think more importantly now is to be consistent in my walk with God and always keep His joy in me.

God is good... that's all I can say.
