my church & my pastor :)

the God i know
righteous and holy
the God i know
faithful and true
the God i know
a tower of refuge
hearts are healed, christ revealed

the God i know
light of the city
the God i know
strengthens e weak
the God i know
your heart beats in mine
as you are, so are we

when e song played for e first time during worship during an earlier service i cried buckets, its amazing how a song can touched you so much you just cant stem e flowing tears. asia conference has come to an end officially, starting with a blast and i bet e finale was as awesome as the start though i missed it.

e conference lasted for 5 days and every single day was packed with people overflowing and we had to use hall 7, 8 & 10 to sit the crowd..amazing how everyone queued for hours & e recorded attendance hit 25000 ppl at its peak.

different pastors, different beliefs & different ways of impacting the crowd and through this conference my eyes were exposed to e culture other churches adopt. i believe every church has a different DNA, a different mandate they wana preach forth to e crowd and e different ways a preacher uses to engage the audience..

im really proud of city harvest and proud of my pastor :) despite all e negative publicity we always hear and how e media puts us down, pastor kong holds on to his beliefs & stand by his faith. sometimes i get sick of explaining my church to unbelievers cos any form of disagreement with their negative values would come across as defending my church. it used to put me down a lot but now im looking at it from a different viewpoint..i'll explain every single doubt u throw my way and pray hard you'll come to know the God i love.

should you love e same God as i do, then i pray hard you come to respect my pastor and e mandate we have as a church. :)

i thank God for my pastor, ever so strong in his faith and ever so strong in his beliefs..standing up for the church and not afraid to express his doubts & disagreements so long it's not in line with the right beliefs. this doesnt even come close to idolising cos what i feel for pastor is utmost respect. im tremendously blessed through this conference!

the church he knows
righteous and holy
the church he knows
faithful and strong
the church he knows
a tower of refuge
hearts are healed, christ revealed

the church he knows
light of the city
the church he knows
strengthens e weak
the church he knows
is strong and might
as he is, so are we.

im looking forward to the new week :)
