Cambodia

Going to Cambodia for the 2nd time was quite a heck of an experience. My khmer vocabulary multiplied bout twice or thrice and now i can have 3-4 worded sentences tho its only bout limited topics... haha!

We painted a 100m long wall which averaged 1.5m tall and illustrated the stories in the bible from creation with adam and eve to noah's ark to jonah to Jesus' birth to His death and ressurection.

Also, we were given the chance to plan the programmes for various activities like the gospel services for the first 3 nights of the trip and later a short service on a floating church on the ton le sap river, a special meeting in the church there, and the usual programmes on sundays.

Through the many stress inducing activities, God really showed me how important trusting in Him was. Maybe its in my nature but i tend to compare quite a lot. And when i looked at how the other guys did their messages, I freaked and realised i had a message to prepare for the next morning completely from scratch. (apparently youth camp speakers get half a yr to prepare) hahah!
But yea. thank God for reminding me to depend on Him and I simply sat down and prayed for guidance. Committing all this to God helped calm me down a great deal and thanks to Him, I managed to prepare a comprehensive message on Love. =)

"We love Him because He first loved us" 1 john 4: 19

God gives us agape love which is unconditional love. A love that does not demand reciprocation. A love which self sacrifices. Self consumes. A love which resulted in His sending Jesus down to the cross to die for our sin.

Thanks to this love, we are made righteous and justified in God's eyes if we accept and believe that Jesus has done that for us.

It is like an air ticket to paradise has been bought for u. Will you take it and board the plane?

ben says AMEN!

I asked JESUS
"How much do you love me?"
HE answered
"This much"
and he stretched out his arms and died for me! (:

"I am the way the truth and the life; NO MAN cometh unto the Father BUT BY ME."
Jesus Christ, John 14:6



`; ^ON _{E W} AY.

I lay my life down at Your feet
Cause You're the only one I need
I turn to You and You are always there

In troubled times it's You I seek
I put You first that's all I need
I humble all I am all to You

One way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
One Way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for

You are always, always there
Every how and everywhere
Your grace abounds so deeply within me

You will never ever change
Yesterday today the same
Forever till forever meets no end

One way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for
One Way
Jesus
You're the only one that I could live for

You are the Way the Truth and the Life
We live by faith and not by sight for You
We're living all for You
