Sunday Night~

During Sunday night, my sis , me and my cousin went to Hillsong "Art from the Heart" art & film festival. I think some short film and artworks are AMAZING and the theme of the competition is "The Cross".  Click here to view more artworks and click here to view short film. You can vote for your most favourite productions.


I personally love this one.

All kinds of cross


LOVE

I recorded the service during that night, so that I can share with you all.I especially love Hillsong's songs, I'm feeling the melody and lyrics touched my heart, it's very powerful. I think it's the reason why people love its songs. Hope you guys will like it too~

 



I love this song, I think its lyrics is very meaningful.
Freely You gave it all for us,
Surrendered your life upon that cross.
Great is the love, 
Poured out for all.
This is our God!
Lifted on high from death to life,
Forever our God is glorified.
Servant and King,
Rescued the world.
This is our God!

After the service, we went to Mamak - A Malaysian style hawker stall. There were a lots of people there and we had to Q-up for quite a long time to wait for our turn. And I found out that something wierd that it's a Malaysia stall but most of the employees are Singaporean =P. Our dinner cost us $60 (FYI it's RM156), there is no doubt that the food there taste nice but the price is kinda expensive.  By using RM156 back in hometown I can go to have a delicious dinner in a proper restaurant. A piece of Roti canai here cost me $5 =(RM10), back in M'sia I can eat 10 pieces of Roti canai. =V= oh well~ just once in a while I need to fulfill my desire for M'sian foods. If not I will be broke soon XD

Happy Easter!

Do you know what is the meaning of Easter Day? Easter is the celebration for the resurrection of Jesus. But Today Easter is commercially important, seeing wide sales of greeting cards and confectionery such as chocolate Easter eggs, marshmallow bunnies, Peeps, and jelly beans.  Some people have forgotten what is the true meaning of Easter Day.

Although Jesus the son of the Christ had predict his betrayal and death, He didn't run away. Before Jesus was being arrested, he told his disciples, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. When Peter wanted to protect him, he told Peter :"Put your sword back into its sheath. Shall I not drink from the cup of suffering the father has given me?" After that, as Pilate had found out that Jesus is not guilty,  the people of Jew had the chance to set Jesus free but instead they let Barabbas (a revolutionary) free. 

Jesus Sentenced to Death (John 19:1-7)
1Then Pilate had Jesus flogged with a lead-tipped whip. The soldiers wove a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and they put a purple rob on him. 3"Hail! King of the Jews!" they mocked, as they slapped him across the face.
4Pilate went outside again and said to the people, "I am going to bring him out to you now, but understand clearly that I find him not guilty." 5Then Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said, "Look, here is the man!"
6When they saw him, the leading priests and Temple guards began shouting, "Crucify him! Crucify him!" 
"Take him yourselves and crucify him," Pilate said. "I find him not guilty."
7The Jewish leaders replied, 'By our law he ought to die because he called himself the Son of God."

The Death and Resurrection of Jesus
Jesus then was crucified on Friday and early on the Sunday morning, Mary Magdalene and his disciples  came to the tomb to found that the stone had been rolled away from the entrance and they could not find the body of Jesus Christ. Jesus then appears to Mary Magdalene and his disciples.

Some people see Jesus dying at the cross as a curse (during that time, there was a custom saying that people that die on a tree is a curse), some people think that it's foolish and some people find that it is abusive.
But I see that as a sacrifice. So what do you see?

Romans 5 : 7-8 7Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. 8But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.


The name of this video is "The Passion of the Christ" 


Hope this year, you will have a meaningful Easter day. Amen.
