i miss schooling so much, that i can't wait to start school ! =(
however, i want to get into NIE badly.
i realised, i fell in love with teaching.
educating young ones became my passion.
hearing news upon news with regards to my students' results have made me really blessed.
some of them, i would say really by the grace of God mans.
one almost i gave up, one is so naughty . but happened to be most of them did so well!
left 3 more students that have yet to receive news from them.
i'm hoping to receive more good news!
today cg was just awesome.
I was hearing @ how Jo preach.
she's amazing! she can preach with jokes and at the same time conviction!
i want to learn that too!
had been preparing sermons lately,
hopefully, i have a chance to preach it one day! (looking forward mans!)
the message is so GREAT!
talking about we have to observe the SABBATH, which is the day that we set aside for God.
its so true!
sometimes when we serve, we forgot about this day belongs to God.
and we are too busy having serve, and we forgot to worship Him.
or times when we are too busy with school work or our career, we often says 'i think i;m not coming for service'.
By doing this we are breaking our covenant with God.
God is faithful, and i want to stay faithful as well!
*God of my youth, i remember.
before year 2009 ends, i want to do even greater things and observe my covenant with you, and prepare for a even greater year next year! (: |

This week tuition is really little! Oh gosh can't believe I slept til 12pm today! Super pig I tell u! I went for tuitions after that. I am so glad to see Francis improving his Chinese and Ming yang just told me that he got 21/50 for his English! Although it's still a fail, but it's really big improvement! Cuz he used to get like 8 marks out of 50. Praise God mans! Hehe! I think being a teacher , the achievement is not just seeing students doing well but under ur guidance, they improve and love the subject because u first became their friends and get to know them. Edwin's mum text me today telling me that edwin loves me to be his tutor. Edwin is a super well behaved kid out of my 8 kids. and I guess I bothered to ask about him that's why he likes me. I guess this is the same as evangelism. People don't care how much u know , but how much u care! Honestly , I want to show others genuine concern! (: Oh yes, I was crossing the overhead bridge when I saw this man with clutches stopping on one of the level of the overhead bridge. He scared me cuz I tot what happened. I look at him and so I asked if he needs my help. But he said it's ok cuz he's jus taking a breath. But I told him I help him up cuz it will be saddening having him just wait there all by himself. So I held him up but I wasn't of a much help. Thank God came two banglas who offered to help him. I was so blessed by them! They helped him to cross the bridge! Moreover, I was blessed seeing how this man with cluthes walk. It's like full of persistency! He's without complain. Just awesome!

when the world throws at you,
what will you do?
what happens when you had no one to depend on?
what happens when problems are accumulating in your life?
bad things happen to good people.
it was really heart-breaking getting to know about this.
i could hardly believe my ears, and i even got her to check it out properly.
why would such bad thing happen to a good person like him?
this was what i was pondering the whole night yesterday.
honestly, i felt at a loss, dont know what to do.
i remembered how i seemed confident visiting him and talking to him.
but now, this seemed like a dead and final end.
I guess only prayer is the key to this.
i would say P.U.S.H!
i can worry this and that, but that's not gonna help.
end of the day, only God can solve the problem.
I NEED YOUR COURAGE, O LORD.
GIVE ME STRENGTH TO FACE THIS.
* i just want to thank you for being awesome for cheering me up yesterday(:
YOU ROCK, REALLY. |

awesome sermon on saturday.
i listened to it for the 2nd time on saturday but i was still blessed indeed.
why do people have 5 gods?
that's because they ain't sure if their gods can assure their safety, blessing or whatsoever they need.
they bring idols home, and made their idols bless them with this and that,
end of they day, who is god? they are the ones. the god that they brought home became their servant.
isn't Christianity supposed to be 'I am the potter, you;re the clay'?
Lord , im here for you to mould, until im ready for things to be done.
this is the cry of my heart, to be your true worshipper.
its more than just a word, its a revelation. i want to do it.
Not just a hearer, but a DOER of His word!
bgm bazaar is so awesome, i would say.
first time being involved. doing ppt slides and cg games.
i'm really honoured to be part of it.
and also, im so proud of N421 , those ppl who helped out, ppl like keefe, van, you liang and jun wei. awesome i tell you. not forgetting Jacob, who came to help. well done guys, thanks for rising up! (:
saturday was the day i promoted to MM! thank you Jesus for promoting me! i know i can work, i can plant, but you're the one that bring me GROWTH. i want to lean more on you.
i remembered last time i was also promoted to MM. but now, the new JESSICA TAN MIN MIN has arose! i'm no longer last time. i'm ready to take on greater things. because eyes has not seen nor ears had heard, the things He has prepared for me!
GREATER THINGS IS TO COME!
* on a random Note : thanks for making my day(: |

i realised that Christianity is like going for a run.
if you are used to going for a run, like you won't miss any runs at all,
you'll feel your muscles building up(especially in your leg area) , and of cuz u feel fitter.
but stop for a moment. .
what if you suddenly stop running for like 5 months?
how will you feel?
for me, i felt really lazy, really tired easily, fats all over my body and JUST UNCOMFORTABLE!!!
that's because i'm the one who stop exercising/running for like 5 months! during days of bible school, simply lazy to run.
moreover, i kinda procrastinated after bible school, that i will start exercising once again, but i didnt start at all.
until today ,i finally pick myself up to start running again.
the feeling of having to run 1.2KM wasn't easy. it used to be NO KICK for me to even run 4KM. but now, i was breathing so hardly though i was running for only 1.2KM!! its SO DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE IT PLEASE!
SIMILARLY! Christianity is like this. times when u feel good, u pray/read bible.
when bad cicumstances hit, u stop praying/reading bible. and this continue for VERY LONG TIME.
when u try to pick things up by learning to pray again and reading bible after a VERY GOOD SERMON in service/cg, u feel like sleeping while u were praying.
BUT! only if u were PERSISTENT ENOUGH, to pull through that ONE TIME! and then you'll start to renew your love for God once again.
this is what I realized after a good jog today! its hard to run sometimes, but keep on keeping on. FOR EVERY RACE, THERE IS A DESTINATION (:
** i'm determined to keep it going! the last shall be first! i want to be YOUR CHOSEN ONE!(: |

wow i think i can conclude that my LJ is dead for now. HAHAHHA!
nobody's commenting, i wonder anyone's reading, but its okay! i write it for my own pleasure.
just like the hk show i watch, its quite pleasing reading back ur past entries.
i'm thinking of starting up another journal. but ain't sure if its a personal one or online. but i guess online one will be locked, it will be more of spiritual things. heh!
oh gosh, this week, will be a real busy week, planning for my tuition kids their upcoming exams, and going for many tuition jus so that they are prepared for their papers. i think i'm more stressed than them! =X
water baptism is gonna commenced this sat, i hope i can get water baptised! if my parents allow, i will! ((:
was chatting w bryan online n suddenly we were toking about prayers. and then i told him, it doesn't matter who pray . cuz God doesn't look @ how short or long ur prayer is, or whether u are a famous person in the kingdom of his. cuz to God, all are equal. only PERSISTENT AND FERVENT prayer avails much to Him! hence, im gonna be persistent and fervent regarding this!
moreover, i have checked the baptism name for myself. LARA! which means someone who is CHEERFUL!
JESSICA LARA TAN!

5 months past so quickly.
at a split of second, its over.
i miss SOT, friendships built there, spiritual environment, everyone who made SOT 2009 possible, i miss all of these. and of course not forgetting my china friends, especially, my beloved jing jing and runner.
today morning is the day they are gonna leave. and right now i couldn't get to sleep cuz its so fast that they are gonna fly off.
i wonder how i would react later on.
however, looking @ the bright side, they are leaving for a great purpose, doing the work of Jesus!
i'm proud of them.
nevertheless, i will continue missing them, and praying for their breakthrough over in china.
what's more, here in singapore, i'm seeing myself encountering breakthroughs too!
NEW LIFE, NEW BEGINNING,NEW REVELATION, NEW TRANSFORMATION.
a whole new chapter, starts right here right now.
it is no longer I who lives but CHRIST lives in me!
not by emotions but by the Holy Spirit. |

READY TO BE PART OF THE NEXT GENERATION TO DO GREATER THINGS FOR HIM!
What can i conclude from today's chc 20th anniversary?
NO WORDS can fully described.
like what pastor always say,
God is the same yesterday, today and forever.
20 years ago, because of Him, the pioneers tog with pastor kong and sun ,
build city harvest.
and now, because of Him, we;ve grown to 27,000 members.
what a GREAT GOD WE;VE SERVED!
i;m honoured to be part of city harvest;
honoured to be pastored under REV.Kong Hee
honoured to know that the God that i serve is so true and real that i can be closer to Him every single day.
most importantly, im honoured to do GREATER THINGS for Him!
it may be hard,
it may be full of sufferings,
but i'm gonna fight a GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH!
truly, nothing is IMPOSSIBLE IF you lean onto Him! (:
because of you, my sins were forgiven;
because of you, i was born again;
because of you, heaven knows my name;
and because of you, i am who i am here today.
ILOVEYOU JESUS!
*** EXCITED, EXCITED TO BE DOING GREATER THINGS FOR YOU! (: |
