A new day is dawning! School starts tomorrow for Hui Yan, Peilin, Sabrina and Qinglin. As we continue to embark on our journey, let the grace and goodness of the Lord be our forever comfort and strength.
The Lord replied, "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest." Exodus 33:14

God's grace in the midst of our sufferings
God feels and knows every fear, anxiety, anguish, confusion and torment you go through.
God cries when you cry. God hears every prayer you cry out to Him. He lists down every single prayer you say to Him.
But in the midst of trials and sufferings, sometimes it's hard to feel God's love for you.
I have been there. I have seen my friend been there.
It's hard. "Where's God? I need His help."
We cannot understand. We cannot see His way and will for us. We cry out to Him.
No one understands you and what you are going through. But God does. He is there for you. He is always there for you. He works in ways we can't see.
God never intends for us to suffering. It pains Him to see His children suffer and cry. We chose to suffer.
Yes, human have a heart, we feel, therefore we feel hurt and pain too. But God knows our hurt and pains. He feels it, together with us.
But we have a choice. We can choose to rest in God. To trust in Him. To lean not on your own understanding but on His understanding. To struggle no more but rest in His peace. To let go and surrender all your issues and problems to Him. He can move the mountains, but we can't. He is the change, let Him change and touch your life. You will marvel at His glory. He is always good.
Then comes patience. You wait. He will not delay in His coming. At the right time, He will come. Surely.
God knows our weaknesses. He sends people to strengthen, encourage and comfort us. I always find people with the gift of prophesy a blessing. How healing the word of God brings! How precious is the Word in those crucial and trying moments! Supernaturally, people anointed by God will deliver the exact right words to me, strengthening, encouraging and comforting me. How did these people know? They don't know. Sometimes they don't even know the significance of the Word they are passing forth. But God knows. God uses these people to speak to you.
May we ourselves strive to be a blessing to others. 1 Corinthians 14 "Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophesy....everyone who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort."

Genesis: Inthe beginning...
God created Adam and Eve. Years went by in a twinkle of an eye for with the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. From Adam and Eve came their descendants from all nations and tribes who came together to create this place where they can worship their Lord together-forever.
Sophia
A native Asian who grew up in Australia. As a result of her mixed heritage, she speaks flawless, accentless English that leaves everyone perplexed about her background. Currently teaching flawless and accentless English in a secondary school, she helps put an end to the highly contentious issue on which country's accent is the best.
Hui Yan
This brilliant and gung-ho 21-year-old is related by blood to the world renowned physicist, Albert Einstein, with the exact connection between them being a mystery. Talented in Physics and Mathematics, she has made significant contributions to the scientific world by her enquiries of the world. Though no answers came forth with those questions, her questions have set millions thinking and pondering, and precisely because an answer cannot be found, her questions will themselves become a legacy even for the generations to come.
Peilin
A Singaporean-French polyglot, she counts English, Mandarin, Hokkien and French as some of the languages that she has command of. The exact number of languages that she is able to speak is probably a lot more but is difficult to determine due to her humble and considerate nature- not wanting to cause those who are already struggling with one language to go into depression.
Sabrina
A Korean-Chinese, Sabrina speaks perfect Korean, Mandarin and any other languages whose phonetic systems fall in between. In her freetime, Sabrina enjoys doing a host of things from cooking Kimchi to conducting psychology experiments. Due to her diverse talents, she is highly sought after by headhunters around the world and is featured in the latest edition of abnormal psychology textbook by Yufang. S due to the abnormally high number of skills that she possess. Habitually quiet, Sabrina does not speak unnecessarily, and when she does speak, every word that she says is carefully weighted and measured, always to the crux of the issue, an ever fascination to many.
Qinglin
A 19-year-old who is small in size but great in faith, Qinglin endears herself to children and adults alike. Always putting others before herself, she excels in teamwork and is currently the managing director of Fuji-Apple the Japanese-American company that specializes in selling manga-pod which is an all in one applicance that allows people to type, print, fax and scan papers no bigger than the size of a champanzee palm.
Pearlyn
Pearlyn Khoo. An interior cum fashion designer, Pearlyn is indeed the epitome of cool. Currently holding many titles and posts to her name, Pearlyn gives out name cards the size of an A4 paper which further points to her creative and innovative nature. With her boundless and fertile imagination, Pearlyn is constantly inspired by the things around her, to the point where she is hardly able to rest for there're just too many ideas floating around her head-without and within.
Rachel
An effective bilingual, Rachel, as her surname might have already suggested, is a Singaporean. Idealistic and ambitious, Rachel's greatest dream is to build a democratic world based on justice and equality. Though tender in age, Rachel has a wisdom far beyond that of her age as evident from her attempt to transform the world by first transforming herself, a feat so inspiring that it would have reduced even Socrates to tears.
Siying
A warrior of Jewish descent, she conquers everything that can be conquered, even her faith. While tough on the exterior, she is tender and compassionate to the lost and needy. Reliable and trustworthy, Siying's friends outnumbered even the grains of sand.
