Dear all, I am really glad that I am in this great CG. I truly feel that we are going to the next level. I have never felt this before but I am really excited to see how we are going on and what God have inputted in our CG. I really want to thank God for this time that I am in the CG.
Still remember a few months back I was told that I have the chance to go overseas for attachment? At that time I truly thought it would be a great opportunity for me. However I prayed to God about it. And it seems like I shouldn't go. Although I felt frustrated at that time but I am glad that I listened to Him. Or else I would have missed out this time great time where as a CG we are growing to the next level.
Well in this I truly believe that God has His plan for us. As Dorcas Jie said before, to God our future is His past and we should truly believe and have faith in Him that goes without saying but also in our leader and most of all our selves. Although we might not see it yet but if we continue to work hard and follow God wholeheartedly, He will never forsake us.
In His word Heb 13:5 - Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
I am glad indeed very blessed that at this time I am here with the CG. As I feel that little by little our hearts are together as one. I really thank God for you all. And I do not want to waste anymore time. For we only have one life and deep in my heart I want to live it for Christ.
One fact is that we are not perfect and have flaws. In His word - Pro 27:17 “As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.” Dorcas Jie also said that: “Whatever criticism just take the meat and throw away the bone.” So that it will enable us to grow even more mature.
Last but not least, let’s keep staying strong for the Lord and help each other through in times of need and keep everyone close to our hearts no matter how far they are.
So Ben, you will always be close to our hearts and we will be waiting for you to come back. J You are on a great mission, we will always be praying for you. So don’t think that you are fighting there alone.
EVERYONE JIA YOU JIA YOU JIA YOU!~
LOVE YOU GUYS ALWAYS…
In His greatest love aNNa[b]eLLe16 <=^a^=>
Note: covetousness = excessively and culpably desirous of the possessions of another.

Hi my Dearest N161! This is a blog that Benjamin, Belle and I thought of creating. This world is getting more and more advance and we shall not be left behind. N161 should go advance too. Instead of having the mentality of coming up with such complicated ideas, why not we start with the most simple one, that is blogging! This is the place that shows all about us. This is what we also known as " Voice Out". This is a place for us to share our Revelations and Testimonials on what God has done in your life. Not only these, we're trying to come up with more things as well, like adding of pictures too.
I strongly believe that everyone surfs the net, so by using this blog, we can interact with one another too as long as there're internet and computer beside you. As you know that our dear Brother Benjamin, who will be going to China(Shanghai) for overseas attachment soon. So through this blog, we can keep him update of what and how our cell group is doing within this 6 months. Most of us had heard a wonderful and touching testimony about us from Benjamin in the cell group meeting recently, why not we come out with this blog and allow him to feel close to us still even he's away. He is one of our member and every member in N161 is important to us. What other CG do for their members, we take it as a reference, but what's more important is what we do for our CG members. Let us not hesitate but join in the fun of typing and sharing what's happening in out life between one another. Be enthusiatic in everything as this is one of the important factor that our CG lack of, but i know we will overcome this matter.
I will try to include a section of photo gallery as well so that he can not only read what we are doing, and also see what we are doing as well. Once my uncle said to me a sentence that really impacted me a lot. He said:" A picture can mean more than a thousand words" and i agree with what he said. I understand that we've mentioned about coming up with a blog or having a Friendster account for our own cell group, but in the end we failed to. We always say, but seldom do it. What pastor mention:" Faith without Action is useless", and that's what we just learned in out BS in Foundation Truth 1 lesson 8. So the 3 of us decided to take the first step to do it. So our dear N161, let us be firm and be strong and like what Brendan shared before, be the pillar for the house of God. Let us stand united and do it as a team.
Remember, we are N161, though our CG may seems to be bit small for now, but it will never stay like this forever. Even Ivan can think like this, so why not for all of you? Blogging may seems to be girls thing, but to be honest it is not. it is the way for us to communicate with each other just that we expressed it through words. I really hope everyone of N161 will take the initiative to start up and support this blog thing and make it a good one. If we can make this a successful one, i believe we can make any other things a success as well. Take note, nothing is impossible as God will always stand by us and guide us in evey way of our life. Do not make comments about members of our CG or what anyone of us shared in this blog as this is not a fighting or arguing place for people to quarrel among each other. Peace, fun, laughter, joy, love, teamwork, as well as Holiness is what our cell group should have and not fights among one another. Thank you for your support and let us allow N161 to be the salt and light of the world and let the sparkles of the flame stay strong. God bless all of N161 and we'll see more of interesting posts in http://n161-we-stand.blogspot.com/
