How to blog from your BlackBerry ..

Kudos to Yunrui, and since she asked I shall blog about it.

The setup -
1. For blogger under dashboard, in the section where you can click new post or edit entries. You would notice a logo that looks like an email. Its similar to your BB messages logo.

Create your unique email address and remember it. When you send emails to this particular address, blogspot will accept it from whichever email and post it up as an entry. Hence, keep it secret.

2. Create a contact with this particular email for your ease.

Now blog!
How?
Use your default bb email and type an email. Log into your starhub bb services or singtel's to create your own signature.

Try it!

Anyway, am having supper now.. Yummy sting ray rice. Song bo!!

Haha! Enjoy your day! :)

The Spiritual Leader - Rev Dr Ulf Ekman

I first picked up this book as a gift from Zheng Hao. I read till page 23 and I stopped. Thereafter, my life spiraled downhill rapidly and I went into what I now refer to as my 'dark ages'.

That was about 4 years ago and now, I am back on track with God and my life.

Nonetheless, you know what they say, you got to pick up where you left off yeah.. Even the books that I used to read but didn't manage to finish reading, I decided to go back to them. Simply because it's a character thing. Be a good finisher. Don't pick up a book and yet not finish reading it. Worse still, don't ever buy a book for it to collect dust @ the corner of your book. I consider that a waste of finances.

Alright! Personally I think that the book is an easy read from Dr Ulf, it's simple enough to be understood by Christians of all levels. It's not like some mega deep theological books that seek to burn away @ your brain cells. It's a simple read. Direct, and straight to the point.

On the other hand, I think maybe because I covered most of the subjects during SOT, so I didnt feel like I had the WOW factor in the book. Were there verses or quotes that spoke to me during the read? YES! I guess that's what happens. If you read an entire book but you catch one point, one statement that changes your life....

That book, is worth the read.

Until next time folks, pray for me yeah..

The Glo Bible Software

I've been trying to blog for the past 3000 years but apparently time has not always been on my side. Hence, my blackberry came in handy. I'm typing this entry as I'm waiting for my train to arrive.

And this portion has been written while I'm in e train. Beautiful!

Anyway, I purchased Glo together with evangeline and isaac. A good buy in terms of pricing. I'll get to the specifications of the program in a while's time. We signed up for the free demonstration and behold!!! We got ourselves almost $100 worth of free gifts consisting of 2 cds and a book. How cool is that? And since we purchased Glo b4 svc started, it went for $85!!! Just perfect! Anyway, why 3 of us? Cuz the license allows installation of 3 devices. Just right.

Now, e juicy part.
The Glo software is a steal for just $105!! As I'm typing from my bold, let me try to recall the functions...

1. Altas
2.Bible
3.Timeline
4.Topical
5.Media

The media part is way awesome! Its an interactive flash like interface that allows you to move around in the temple during the days of Jesus. Even shows you roughly what Jesus could see when he was on top @ temple mount. The places that tourists aint allowed to go to? They have it inside Glo too! Art works, pictures, photos? Everything. There's a part of Glo that allows you to trace the footsteps of Jesus. Wonderful stuff!

My favourite would have to be shuffling between the atlas and the bible. Clicking on a verse gives you extra background information and by using the atlas, it will provide indepth study of the bible simply because you can now see the exact locations on the map, if the verse includes some location..

For eg, I realised the e great sea, met sea, western sea... Its all referring to the same place.

All in all I'm glad I purchased my copy of Glo.
What about you?
Grab your copy today!!!

Remembering where I came from

This is, without any doubt, an entry on God, about God. This is going to be one of my most open entries about God, Jesus.. No idea why. Maybe to encourage you?

I am about to step into another phrase in my life. I feel that the trials and tribulations would be of another level. I believe that I will be greatly blessed, I also expect to be tested beyond my imagination and yet still fall within God's control.

Writing this entry at 4:13am instead of sleeping when I have to wake up at 7am to reach Expo at 7:45am is an absolute illogical act of craziness. However, this is a pivotal moment. I sense that things are going to swing up gear. Expecting correction from the people around me, expecting breakthroughs and yet also knowing that it would not be easy. Correction is a word dreaded by many and I am no exception. For me to grow, correction is just part and parcel.

Accept it, move on.

It's the week of prayer again. As I stood there worshiping and praying to Jesus, I realized how far God has taken me. Through good times and bad times, He was always there. Recently, I am hungry for more, more of His presence. It's not like I don't feel His presence and His hand moving in my life. But as compared to SOT days, its like a drizzle more than a flood.

The Holy Spirit can flood my life anytime man. For some reasons, I seriously don't feel fulfilled or satisfied spiritually. Not even with the week of prayer. Where is Your dense presence? The presence that carries Your weight?

Time to get it back. Let's do something about it. Press deeper!

I came home, got done with my idle stuff and I decided to do something I have not done for a long time. Just dedicate this time to God. Even while I'm writing this entry, I am still in that mode. Guess what, I took out my old notebook when I first came to church. Yes, I have kept the habit of writing notes ever since I joined City Harvest. I flipped through the songs, the sermons. Songs, because I was in the army and I wanted to have my quiet time during after dark hours. How was I to worship without the lyrics?

"Hope has found its home within me
Now that I've been found in You
Let all I am be all You want me to be
'Cause all I want is more of You
'Cause all I want is more of You"

"There is a longing only You can fill
A raging temptest only You can still
My soul is thirsty Lord
To know You as I'm known
Drink from the river
That flows before your throne"

Old Songs. Soooooooooo many memories.
Mistakes I had made, victories that I had won.
All of it, washed away by time. Time, your friend and your enemy.

I can't really put a finger to it but I feel that something is moving and its almost like its another chapter even before the year has officially ended. I don't get it. I pray that when God moves, I will have the capacity to pick up and follow. Years down the road, I will look back at this blog (hopefully, it'd still be around). What will I say?

"God, I remembered You, remembering me.
Thank you so much."


Alright, it's 4:36am.
Time to continue.. You know these things about old songs. You kinda forget the tune.
Thank God for youtube. LOL!

Seductive Vampire Look

Halloween is just round the corner and since I'm such a fan of Michelle Phan, I decided to showcase her video on my blog. Not on Facebook, cause I have no intentions of inviting controversies.

Ladies, watch and learn.. This is really top grade stuff, which is quite guaranteed to get your man's attention. Check out the rest of her videos if you have the time.

Gentlemen, watch and learn. You wanna know how the girls do their stuff and its good general knowledge which will come in handy during coffee top conversations.

Enjoy.

Secrets of closing the deal -Zig Ziglar

Now, I'm obviously a fan of Zig Ziglar. Fact of the matter is that, I took many months to complete this reading. I blame SOT, work and obviously my lack of determination. Amidst all the busyness and random acts of finger pointing, I made it a point to just sit at my sofa and finish up the last two, three chapters.

I feel good!
Secrets of closing the deal... TICK!

I must say that it is a good read. One of the things that I strongly agree with Zig, the salesperson is more important than the techniques of doing sales. Your beliefs, your values and the way you carry yourself determine your success. I totally agree with that! I've been known in my office to not use catch phrases and still get the deal. Why?

Approach with a sincere heart.
Do your homework.
Work very hard for the client.

If you're a salesperson, I recommend you grab this book and internalize it.

Yes, it does contain tons of power phrases and questions that you may use. But, at the end of the day, focus on improving yourself and not your techniques.

Man looks for better methods.
God looks for a better man.

Improve yourself.
Grow!

Next book,

Surrogates

It's been such a long while since I caught an action sci fi movie. And it happens to be Bruce Willis so what the heck right?

I loved it!

Right from the beginning, there was action and suspense. And even though you know that at the end of the day, it'd probably be a case of good triumphing over evil or that there is a huge possibility that Bruce's character would survive and save the day. You know everyone would eventually drop like in the trailers but you are not sure if they would be fried or what.

I liked the dialogue and honestly it's one of those shows that explore the possibility of something like that happening in the future. You never know. The technology is very real. So are the moral implications. Which is why I liked the show!! It got me thinking. I like to think. So, effectively I like movies that get me to think and to stand in the shoes of the character.

What would I have done?

Movies get me thinking.

By the way, the reason I emo-ed @ time of last entry was purely because of the collection of stagnancy in my life with regards to the different pillars. I need a breakthrough!!! Can't stand it when things are not moving. Very frustrating!

Alright, but I'm fine.

Have a nice day my friends...

Events, the cloud of it all.

Was looking at how sweet Ryan and Eunice were together, can't help feeling envious.
Been having pretty much stomach problems the past few days, stomach flu or food poisoning? It doesn't matter cause I still ended up feeling weak and ended up with a fever. 38.4 on Tuesday.

Somethings must always happen before prayer meeting.
Yeah, our zone is having overnight Prayer meeting on Children's day. Got to hear about some news, coupled with my upset stomach. God has a way of making me stretch..
Next PM? Christmas Eve. Well done!!

Deleted my private blog, rather deleted all the entries within. Decided that some things are just not worth the space and time even if I don't visit the private blog anymore. Don't bother searching cause you can't find it. It's locked and it's empty. Don't think I'm going back there anyway.

Prayer meeting in about 2 hours time. I am feeling EMO!!! How? How?
I am so not a clubber but recently I do have the urge to club. That happens only when I'm feeling emo. Well, possibly mambo jumbo next wed..

Smile Jaydee Quek! Smile!!!!!
