Hey all!

It's buzzing in the newsroom now and I'm taking a breather from my consuming workload just to relaxxx. I've realised a few of you guys being absent last Sat, some I know why and some are really missing in action for quite a while now. WHERE ARE YOU PEEPS??? You know who you guys are and we're missing you... Aww :)

I'm running through our syllabus for CG teaching this year... It's something that would build you up, really good materials are given this time round. Not letting anything out yet, but it would really benefit your spiritual growth.

We all mourn the passing of our 2nd bubblyy PCCG mascot, Lady, who happens to be RachC's puppy... It's a sad thing, but hey, Lady's gone back to be one with nature again... Animal Heaven. :)

In my devotion today, the issue of 'challenge' was brought up. And I bet, in our daily living, we'd face challenges, no matter how small or big it is. And yes... we all do know that no challege is too big for God, sure, but sometimes, when it's only you that seems to be in the picture and no one else, remember that God does not always give things to you. Certain things you MUST claim!

Dueteronomy 1:21 (NLT)
Look! He has placed it (your land, your challenge, your blessing!) in front of you. Go and occupy it as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, has promised you. Don't be afraid! Don't be discouraged!'

I crossed referenced this verse and found much encouragement...

Joshua 1:9 (NASB)
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.

I face new challenges everyday, I go to sleep with this things in mind... But I now am extra encouraged! I hope you would be too.

I realised that God blesses, but it is we that are responsible to claim these blessing bestowed to us, to claim ownership, to mark our territory that God gave to us! RAWRRRR!

So this week, go, be that conquerer, because the strength that we have is not of men. It's of God.

SOOOOOO HOLY ah... Aih... get used to this kids... LOL!

But it's true... It really is.

See you on Sat!

Love,

Joshua F
