Running the Race - Tomorrow is coming!!

As I stepped into.....

Poly Forum Interview
It was really a challenge. Last year's interview wasn't that tough. Anyway, I hope to get into the Poly Forum this year as this year's topic is what I'm more interested. I think I can perform better in this year's forum. The interview for the 5 of us took almost an hour!! Can you imagine it?? By then, it was raining cats and dogs.

Music Ministry - Understudies
Met up with Pastor Jennifer after the interview. I waited for the bus for almost 30 mins!! Can't believe it. Made her wait for almost 30 mins!! So pai seh.. anyway, I shared my views, observations and part of my life experience, issues and my walk with God. It was really fruitful as she shared about pressing on till tomorrow comes. Still cannot find that passage she told me about, in the book of Joshua. I'm really thankful that she took the time to spend this short hour to listen to the views of the understudies and the encouragements she gave me. I hope I can continue to serve the ministry faithfully and learn more things about it. Especially the dynamics of the band, music itself and communication within the bands. Will share more when I receive that passage.

Cell - Birthday Celebrations + Julian's return
Was at holland village area for dinner at this cool little restaurant under a HDB flat. Blk 15 is all I remember. Will check out the name of the restaurant. LOL. We went there to celebrate 4 cell member's bdays and Julian's return to Singapore. 3 of the bday kids turned up, namely Mag, Wen Yan and Gab. We really enjoyed ourselves as we played board games, UNO, Jenga, etc.. The fellowship was the main thing. I really appreciate this special outing as I believe that a cell must build strong bonds. Really wanna thank the cell for making my life colourful. Wen Yan and I wore the God He Reigns wrist band together and we took loads of pictures. Wen Yan and I.. then PC and I.. then Wen Yan, PC and Esther.. then PC, Wen Yan, Esther and I took pictures.. like family pic sia.. hoping for the next outing.. maybe to the esplanade and have our relaxation outing!!

Running the Race
I really wanna tell everyone.. Yes, everyone!! To persevere to the very end. Our tomorrow is coming - to the understudies of COOS Music Ministry, Band 1 & 2. Understudies, let's run the race together. There's nothing far better than serving our God, the Almighty One. If you feel that you are running the race alone.. NO!! you are not.. we are running it together. I suggest that we can practice/jam together once a month as I suggested to Pastor Jennifer. If it really helps in the physical portion (playing our instruments/singing) and helping us to sustain our needs. Let's be transparent and be of an example of a servant. Let's serve in small things faithfully. For the others, like my good cool dear friend, Sequeena and others, persevere for your studies!! I'll try to help you all. Don't ever give up. If you ever give up, no one can help you at all. Love you all!!

Let's run the race together.

In His Love,
Kenny Ong
"God He Reigns"
