I’m trying out a new software MacJournal.. that’s supposedly able to link to my Blog. If this works.. it’d be a cool way to publish some of my entries easily.
Don’t Give up…
StandardToday God spoke in a very clear way to me.. thru the sermon at church..
God is not about to give up on me… so Don’t give up on him!
‘Give up’ (in the original language) has this idea of ‘bad thots’…
we begin to thing badly about our own situation, we start to think
wrongly about God’s character…
and we also begin to think back…
Our eyes focus on the circumstances, not on God
That’s how i’ve been feelin’ of late. My eyes on everything else
(problems, situations, personal challenges, frustrations, lost of
possesions etc. =( and on and on… ) instead of on God.
And when I pray… i’m only asking.. ‘get me out of this.. or that…!’
Who is my God? what really is he doing in my life.. during this period
of time…
First email-to-Blog!
Standardallo.. jus testing out my very 1st email-to-blog.
hope this will help me post things more timely… =)
God is on the move!
StandardDear friends and prayer partners,
Hello! It’s been more than 3 weeks since our team returned fr East Asia…
(I’ve chatted and shared personally with many of you about many exciting things that God was doing in-country)
but I thought I should give an overview summary of how God has worked through your prayers.
In our 8 days in two cities, we witnessed about 5000 who attended our concerts..
At our last day, we saw about 700 students coming for our evangelistic concert.
And, in His amazing grace, 521 of them made decisions for Christ!!
We also experienced God’s hand of protection everywhere we went.
The owner of one of the theatre threatened to ‘pull to plug’ if he heard anything he didn’t like.
Many fasted and prayed.. and again miraculously, he did not even appear. Nobody makes a threat like that and don’t show up.
Exodus 14:14 was the verse God used to encourage us one morning…
“The Lord Himself will fight for you. You won’t have to lift a finger in your defense.”
If God is for us, who can be against us..?
There were so many other amazing things that happened… but i wanted to keep this mail brief… =)
I want to say a special thanks to you.. for interceding on our behalf. And also for giving sacrificially…
God is on the move in this BIG country, and we’re sooo excited and blessed to have witnessed some of His wonder-working during this trip!
Thank you,
Co-labouring with you in the gospel..
Simon

It’s a BOY!!
StandardDear friends,
yes, it’s a BOY!!
and my ForeRunner staff team was actually ‘betting’ it’s a girl… ha ha!
He’s 3.57kg…
and we thinkin’ of naming him Zachary Noah Seow- ‘Remembered by the Lord’
chinese name still pending..
Lil’s recovering…
she had bad abdominal pains fr 2:15am yesterday…
apparently it’s intestinal hernia.. (don’t ask me wat it is)
I think in layman terms it means ur intestines got stuck together.. or in a knot…
and she was ‘all tied up’ for almost 12 hours… v v v painful! ouch!
that’s why we had to do an emergency C-section…
thank God it’s resolved.
pray for:
-Lil to recover completely.. and able to breastfeed.
-baby not to develop jaundice
-strength and wisdom as we care for this little one.
Simon
