My sister, Ida

We had a great time celebrating my sister’s birthday last weekend! It started out from warming up our voices to holding our own personal concert at the karaoke! It has been a long, long time since any of us went for K. I just want to thank God that my sister, Ida accepted Jesus into her life about one or two years ago. I had been praying for her for about close to ten years before that! In Acts 16:30-31, Paul’s and Sila’s reply to the jailer when he asked "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" was "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household." Be encouraged that salvation is also for your family. So for those who are still praying for the salvation of your family, keep on praying and trust in the Lord’s plan and timing!

God is good :)

hallo
my very first entry...so exciting... god has blessed me so much too... especially in my artistic career. He has provided me with a great space(good location with a reasonable rental) to work as well as exhibit and conduct workshops at Emerlad Hill Road for the past one year plus. During these times here@Emerald Hill, the Lord has sent so many people to me and my fellow artists, Wyn-Lyn and Valerie Ng, esp in the media side... I thank God for much coverage in many magazines and Straits Times, Lianhe Zaobao etc. Due to this, we organized many artnights workshops too here. God had also sent many buyers who appreciate our artworks even though we are all painting in an abstract manner. As we have to move out end Feb this year, I have been praying to God for a suitable location, together with Pastor Patrick & Novi whenever we meet for our bible-study group. I thank God again for finally finding a location at Mohammad Sultan Road . I will continue to pray for His guidance and wisdom in running instinc and that he will continue to watch over us. Thank God for my dear sister Novi too for keeping me in her prayers all this while. May God be the Glory!!! :)

Official Launch - extended version

Hi everybody! God has been such a loving, patient and faithful God in 2006. He has blessed me so abundantly, I can hardly contain it! These are just some of the things that happened to me in 2006:

Feb - Found a nice apartment when property was just at about its lowest point (thanks to my great in-laws). Great size, location, layout and price! I love it.

April - Got retrenched (Thank God!) and got married to my wonderful husband (A bigger thanks!)

May to Oct - Spent these few months in Europe with my husband who had been relocated there for about 8 months. I would call it a "sponsored and extended honeymoon".. we went to so many places in Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria and France. We truly had an amazing time traveling!

Well, these are just some of the great things that happened to me. And I know of friends who had wonderful things happening to them too! So I was just thinking, we need to share these great accounts with everybody! Thus the creation of "Bless and Blessed", a site especially for remembering what God has done in our lives and to thank Him for it.

For fellow believers in Christ, I hope that this site will encourage you to share and remember the good things in your lives, and more importantly, how the bad things are made good because of our faith in God. If you have a testimony, I strongly urge you to spend a couple of minutes posting it up on this site. Own this site! You never know just who you can truly encourage and bless.

Today shall be the first day that this site is officialy launched. Those of you who are reading this have probably received my invitation to become a part of this site and an author of your own life. I pray that God will use this website for the extension of His kingdom, and to build strong fellowship among His children.

I thank you in advance for being a part of it! Feel free to post comments if you have any feedback, improvement ideas, complaints... :)
