It's time to be activated.

Yeap, apparently, you can see that West ZOODEE's blog has started rotting for quite some time. It's time to activate it yeah? :D

Almost everyone in the whole of YHOPE including West ZOODEE (or maybe all the students in singapore?) are all mugging really hard for examinations. Some of you may be on top of the cliff or some of you may be at the bottom of the cliff. Confidence, no confidence. Victorious or defeated, still, never be too complacent and forget that God is behind all things. Whatever situations you're in, remember His love and grace that made you who you are now. A short poem from the internet for all of you(please don't credit as us, bcos i'd forgotten where i took this poem from):

God's love is unconditional
That's how the story starts
He sent His only son
To reach out to our hearts

God's love is abundant
It's a never ending supply
Love so deep
You can almost fly!

From the cross to the grave
He wanted only our souls to save
A deeper love than any has known
On the cross is where it was shown

God's love is merciful
That's why He sent a Son
To build a bridge that day
On the cross it was done

Know that God is in control, and that He will honor the amount of efforts you had put in. Whatever rewards you are going to receive, remember to receive it with joyful heart and praise the Lord!

CG08 CG08; How burdened is your heart? I believe our dearest Spongebob had shared to most of the harvesters about the topic burdened heart. However, this does not just apply to the harvesters, it apply to the whole load of WEST ZOODEE. We are a family, and we should never do things alone. Quoted from Pastor Shirley: If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. We want to go far, yeah? We want to complete CG08, we want to complete the 11 schools not just 4 schools! By faith, we can! It's not easy, but God will make it come to a past. FAITH!

It may be tiring to handle your examinations and your ministry together. One part, you will need to really buck up for your studies (especially those who are really at the bottom), and on another part, you will need to go for evax/shepherding/CG/service/meeting etc. Sometimes, you may face discouragement that will make you want to give up but, never do that.

1 Chronicles 28:20
David also said to Solomon his son, "Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the LORD is finished.

You had come so far, 1 month? 2 month? 3 month? Half a year? 1 year? 2 year? Or many more. Is it worth it to give up just because of a mere discouragement? It worth nothing! Hold on tight!

Psalm 37:23-24
If the LORD delights in a man's way,
he makes his steps firm;
though he stumble, he will not fall,
for the LORD upholds him with his hand.

Do not let the discouraging reality overwhelm you. Remember, we are not to live like the world. We are to live like Jesus! Do not let the discouraging reality create fear in your heart that will make you hesitate to go for ministry. "Ask and you'll be given." This is what God said, let's do the same yeah? Anyone asked/requested to go for evax, then go for it. DON'T HESITATE. It will kill if you do. And, if all the more you don't want to do it, ALL THE MORE YOU MUST DO IT (Bear's fav. quote). This is GETTING OUT OF COMFORT ZONE. Do you want to stuck at the same current level you are in always? Move on! Stop being a root, spread your branches and start to blossom like a flower! Get to the next level!

Jia you WEST ZOODEE! Always know that whenever you are tired, restless or feel like giving up, remember that ALL of us are facing the same things. If one fall, all will be affected. So let not even one fall, let one start by influencing to move on higher! You are not the only one! WEST ZOODEE(s) are all here with you! Let us do our BEST, and God will do the REST! :D
