In A Place Like This:

Ever been in a place like this?
A place like the whole world is in motion, but you're stuck in yester-zone?
A place like time's moved on, but you're holding on to the past?

Ever been in a place like this?
A place where voices are speaking, but none of the words are sinking in?
A place where people are hurried, but you're sitting in a hospital bed?

Ever been in a place like this?
A place where trust & love once strong, but now shattered and wounded?
A place where used to bring peace & laughter, but now swirling in tears?

Ever been in a place like this?
A place where crowds cheer with smiles proudly captured, but now just a forgotten memory?
A place where KDX & RMX ruled, but now other priorities have overtook?

Ever been in a place like this?
A place where the head's nodding & lips moving, but the heart's sinking and drowning?
A place where the spirit's urging forward, but the body's frozen still?

How do you move from a place like this?
How do you remove images ingrained, eyes & smiles captured on film?
How do you remove life's journey past?
Do you ever? Should you ever?

Do you ever? Should you ever?
Ever been in a place like this?
A place where nothing else used to matter,
except for the dreams shared, hand in hand, step by step?
Now a distant memory but forever engraved.
Do you ever? Should you ever?
Maybe one day...I'll visit that place again.
oh no, yes I will.
One day, I'll enter that place again.

Activate08 Aftermath.........

Wow has it been awesome!!!! After months of planning, Activate08 conference finally came & went! It started with a huge bang and concluded on an immense HIGH! Everyone who attended left with their hearts touched and transformed!

It brought real satisfaction and joy to see the vision of the conference coming to pass... altho' the conference is only gonna get bigger and better from now on!! What I've just witnessed is only a glimpse of where the conference could go! All praise and glory to God, for without Him, everything would have been impossible. Yet with Him all things are possible!

I love my God and love my church! Absolutely so proud of my church! See, it's the people that makes the church. I am so proud of every single individual who calls Kingdom Life Church their home. Without you, church would not be same. It's the joining of hearts to the Vision. Together we will turn nations back to HIM!

The speakers were fantastic, every word spoke into my heart. Indeed God's word always accomplishes what it has set out to do, and never returns to Him void! The creative team broke all barriers and took worship to another level! It was awesome to see people breaking free! God inhabits the praises of His people! The volunteers tirelessly worked with smiles on their faces. Whether in word or deed, it was for God that they were serving! I learnt much from them!

Tho' I was going in and out of the sessions, the message that Ps. Mike Grechko preached broke my heart. The main thing that gripped my heart is this:
In the battle that David conquered Goliath, and won the victory for the Israelites over the Philistines, it wasn't originally his battle to fight. It was actually King Saul's battle, but he was paralysed with fear. It crippled him and his army. He was too terrified to go against Goliath. But David stood up and fought the battle for Saul. He knew who he was in God, and that he had God with him. His confidence was found in WHO God is. Because David stood and fight, he claimed victory for Saul, the army and the Israelites.
So, whose battle am I helping to fight? Who do I know that is terrified, paralysed and crippled with fear? On whose behalf can I fight a battle for? Am I willing to stand and fight for them? Will I be just like David, being confident in Who God is?

God is the Great I AM!
