Just like what Pastor has said to us every single time , "Don't just talk the talk, but walk and walk !"

Finally, Pastor is blogging again ! Indeed, as we were still in the mood of Asia Conference, as we were still celebrating the wonders of God , still engaging and absorbing the knowledge and the presence of God from all those awesome time we spent during Asia Conference, something struck us really really hard . People within and outside the church reacted so different . Mainly 3 kinds of people, those who loyally , faithfully trust in the leadership of the Church , many persecuted without waiting for the "verdict", while many decides to "wait and see".

Many of the Church members were curious about what happened and how things were going on . Even myself . going to the net to check out the news , not to doubt the Church because somehow , I know and I know that my leaders are a group of righteous people . They are really those who walk the walk and not only talk the talk , unlike so many others out there persecuting the leaders and the Church . Instead of having even more questions in my heart when i read those news , faith and belief began to increase in my heart . why are there even more things coming up out of a sudden , relevant or not , and they all happened right after Asia Conference ?

Collate all the sessions of Asia Conference , see the whole thing from a bigger view , probably its just saw that Satan is trying to break us all up . Breaking our faith , our unity so that he will not be defeated . As we all have learnt , the greater the challenge , the even greater reward we are going to get in future ! None of the City Harvesters believe blindly , we dont . We just trust deeply in the leadership and the covering that God has given to us , that's all . Reason being , we have seen and received so much . Yes ,we may have gone through hard times and difficult days , but its through the teachings of God through all these anointed and committed leaders that brought us out of those past and bring us to what and who we are right now.

We give more , people may think that we have given much more than receive . But has anyone asked us that ? Do anyone out there confirmed that we have received more that we give ? I guess many have just think in the typical way , give and left no more , yea? Words are dead , but the actions of people are only acted out when things are shown that things work , and words are true , that's why we believe . And even in the midst of all these crappy stuff , people still give . And i believe that even without any word or verse shared regarding giving , most of us will give because all of us would already have an amount in our hearts that we want to give .

Who are they to judge when they don't even understand why we did ? We are accountable to our God , our heart that choose to obey Him . And we trust that our leaders are even more accountable to God , if not , they would not have gotten or received so much from God , and still able to give to others . Its the accountability of our leaders that we , or at least me , believe in . (:

But through this , i realised how much the Church loves and unites together as one . We may not know every single one in the Church , i mean how to know all 33000 people ? But the thing is , though we do not know each other personally, we do know and love one another in spirit . Its through bad times that we are closer , more united . And this is also a time for the Church to get stronger !

Knowing who really stand with us in times like this . And i was really really very touched that Pst Phil immediately sent us a vid greeting the following week of the incident and even flew over just to be with us and encourage us ! Not forgetting also that Dr. A.R.Bernard also sent us a vid greeting that truly warm our hearts . Indeed, no one is alone , we have people who deeply believes in us , and never stop loving us !

Though I was also going through hard times in my personal life and work life , i still feel encouraged and filled when i go back to Church . God's presence is even stronger than any other period , probably even better than AC . This only happens because all of us stand in agreement together ! That's why in times like this , we are still able to be encouraged and filled like never before !

I am really starting to love trials and tribulations and hard times , though these times are really draining ,but it is a time for us to stretch like crazy and grow like never before . Just like what the Church has witnessed for the past 2 weeks . Because there is evidence , that's why we believe . (:

Really wana thank Pastor Kong and Sun for all that they have done . Sacrifices that they have made throughout the years . the leadership and guidance they have given to the leaders and all , none of that are forgotten . All the churchwide prayer meetings and bible studies that really cause us to sacrifice our time and energy , they have done that with us . Just love and really appreciate everything that's planned and organised for all of us ! Because of all these , we grow to become stronger , yet humble ! Way to go City Harvest Church , Pastor Kong , Sun and the rest of the leadership ! Thank you for everything ! :DD

Anyways , Check out Pastor Kong's newest post - "Reflection" !

Truly, what matters most in life : Faith , Family , Friends . Something and people who will stand by and support us no matter what happens !

Enjoy and reflect ! :DD
