HELLO,
here to update again. Its taken from my email, from NEW GENERATION.
I believe some of you all have it? (: heh. but never mind, Will post for the the rest who dun have the mail.
Here are some ways you need to look out for if you do something in your school.
1. Always bless people We have seen that people like to be blessed. They do not like it when you play a joke on them by giving out lollipops which are covered with chili or cookies which have too much salt in it. Your friends will not appreciate it or even be offended. The best results you will have with normal things that everybody likes. Just use something like a lollipop or a sweet and bless them.
2. You do not have to write about Jesus everywhere.
If you write cards to your class or to your entire school you don't have to put Jesus on all the cards. People will not get saved just because they receive a card that says something like "Jesus Loves You". They might even be put off and report you to the principal. We do not want this kind of attention because it might even make it more difficult for you to do things in your school in the future. It is much better to write a card without all the Jesus messages. This will open the people in your school to be a friend to you.
You can take the time to first cultivate a friendship with them. After having them as your friends for one or two months you can start to invite them to church and share about Jesus. Then it will be much more impactful than to write "Jesus loves you" onto a card. We don't want to offend people from other believes.
(Its to be wise on what you do in school and not refering about denying Christ. :D)
3. Pray
No matter what you do prayer is always the most important. Pray for your school every day. When you sit in class pray for a short while for your friends and all the other people who do not know Jesus yet. Prayer does amazing things and we all can pray.
Love,
Siew Ling

Alrights, I got one mail to share to all of you :D
KEEP GOING , ENCOURAGE THE ONE YOU CARE FOR..Don't Give Up.....
One day I decided to quit...
I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality...
I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.
'God', I asked, 'Can you give me one good reason not to quit?'His answer surprised me...
'Look around', He said. 'Do you see the fern and the bamboo?'
'Yes', I replied.
'When I planted the
fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them.
I gave them light. I gave them water. The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed.
But I did not quit on the bamboo.
In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful. And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed.
But I did not quit on the bamboo. ' He said.
'In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed.
But I would not quit.
In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed.
I would not quit.' He said.
'Then in the fifth year
a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared to the fern it was seemingly
small and insignificant... But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.
It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle.'
He asked me. 'Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been
growing roots?'.
'I would not quit on the bamboo and likewise I will never quit on you.'
'Don't compare yourself to others.' He said.
'The bamboo had a different Purpose than the fern. Yet they both make the forest beautiful.'
'Your time will come', God said to me. 'You will rise high'
'How high should I rise?' I asked.
'How high will the bamboo rise?' He asked in return.
'As high as it can?' I questioned.
'Yes.' He said,
'Give me glory by rising as high as you can.'I left the forest and brought back this story.
I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you.
Never, Never, Never Give up.For the Christian Prayer is not an option but an opportunity.
Don't tell the Lord how big the problem is, tell the problem how Great the Lord is!Heavens door open this morning, God asked me...
'My CHILD, what can I do for you?'
And I said, 'Daddy, please protect and bless the one reading this message.'
God smiled and answered, 'Request granted.'
This message is now in your hands to bless others too. :)
This email reminded me of the song "Never Give Up" .
It's a superly nice song from the show "facing the giants"
If you wan the song you could get from me or Julia.
Yes. Lets cont to persist and not give up even if we are SO tired!
Cause 2008 is a year of leaping. So lets not give devil a chance to whack us. :DEven if he does, rmb God never give up on you, so fight back against the devil!Love,
Siew Ling :D
