the one with peppermint tea

Am taking a break in-between lesson prep. Much has happened over the weekend but am somehow unmotivated to type more than 140 characters at one go. Maybe after the conference. From tomorrow onwards, Andria, Asher, Christine, Dennis, Leon, Petrinna, Rachel, Sharlene and I together with the Ablaze gang will be stepping into…

FUTURE

Totally psyched up for what God is gonna do amongst us!

P.S. Prayin’ that everyone back home will have a smashin’ time of prayin’ tomorrow!

long-awaited winter

Finally, I’m sitting at T1, waiting for the jet plane to take me away from Singapore’s humidity (won’t be sorely missed) right into a nice, chilly winter. It’s gonna be two weeks with youth leaders gang from Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Auckland. Praying for a super duper fruitful time! Will try to blog if I have spare time (which is rather unlikely). Take care, peeps!

why i am unstoppable

My name is shirls
And I am unstoppable

I don’t flirt with or date the church
I’m not infatuated with the church
I have no illusion that the church is perfect

What I have is a commitment to love God’s church
Not just with words but with my hands and feet
I’ll neither point finger nor look further for the answer’s in the mirror

I believe God’s not dead; He’s building the church he died for
A living miracle of a bunch of imperfect people loving imperfect people
I believe God has called us to build this church without walls

My name is shirls
I am a living stone of God’s church
And together we are unstoppable

urrrggghhhhhh!!!

God, you have stirred more things than my small heart could take.

I feel like I don’t have many pretty pictures to paint in this camp. Instead, my heart is filled with much holy discontent and agitation. What do I do with this!!

I asked him to show me his heart and when he did, I’m reduced to this state of brokenness. Seriously, shirls… What did you expect?! A vision of tellytubbies in lala land? What could possibly come out of looking at the lost world thru the eyes of a holy and compassionate God?!?

Unstoppable in 12 hours – and he just took my world by storm. Seriously, God, you can’t always do this to me!!!

*breathe*
