Hi guys! I am back from the Hong Kong leadership conference already! =D. Did anyone miss me? I guess not. My tagboard is still empty. Anyway, there were technical difficulties that occured with my cam so i guess i wont be able to post any picutres till i leech them from the other LC people from central.

3rd September (Wednesday)

Reached Hong kong at around 11am or 12pm. It was a four hour flight i guess. It was boring on the plane. All i did was sleep >.<
Anyway, we went to shop the whole day with some HK delegates like Philip and Emily who brought us all around to shop.

Only spent about 271 HKD that day excluding Food.

4th September ( Thursday)

OCEAN PARK!! WOOHOO!!!

Here are some pictures:

I cant believe i took the cable cars that far to see this dumb pandas eating and sleeping like pigs >.<. I couldnt believe that they were pandas judging by their behaviour. They were no different from pigs!
There were much more in ocean park.
I took on every ride in ocean park including the mine train and dragon, which i took 2 times. It was enjoyable i guess, but very costly.
Went shopping afterwards. Bought 7 baby milo shirts. 4 for my Caregroup people heh.

Friday , Saturday and Sunday : LC!
Yhope, together with various delegates from various parts of the world like, Hope L.A, Hope Italy, Hope Brisbane (Chris torch and Lisa), Hope Hong Kong(Hosts), Hope Thailand and even pastors pioneering all over the world like, pastor willie, pastor Simon, pastor PN, pastor Shirley, pastor Brendan, pastor Angela,ETC.
It was indeed a very magnificent experience worshipping and serving alongside them. I even got to talk to some of them =D.
Anyway, i would encourage you guys to go to LC when you got the chance to. It's really inspiring and 10x the impact of what camp would have given you.

One thing that impacted me greatly was the word given to me by Pastor Angela. Before i was getting prayed for, i had thought of all possible things she might say. Trust me. It never came across my mind what she had told me. It was not correction, rebuking or anything. This struck me alot.
She said, " Now, the lord has spoken. The lord says that child, do not despise yourself. Do not let anyone say you are not worthy. Do not let anyone including your family members shake your faith. The lord tells you today, to not despise yourself because God has chosen you. God has picked you out of the tens of millions of people to shine for him. Do not give up, and do not worry about what others say, or what might come to pass. The Lord tells you today, to fix your eyes upon his unlimited power and strength, that he might bless you in the days to come. So as for now, fix your eyes upon him. Leave your ministry responsibilities aside, and concentrate on God, for god cares about you, your heart and your relationship with him, not what you do."
Lisa also added, "As i was praying for you, God has told me that you have a great amount of potential in you and the capacity to do great things for him. The lord says today, that you throw all burdens aside and just cry out to God. God wants to remind you, that as we serve him, we need to focus first, our relationship with him. Until then, the unlimited potential in you will not be tapped on. A great path forged by God himself has been laid out for you. The lord says that all you have to do is seek him, and all things would be given unto you."
These seriously made me cry. It was what i exactly needed. God did not rebuke me, but instead he comforted me and revealed himself to me.
How can i not serve the mighty God who created the universe?

I had responded to a 7 year full commitment to serve God and his purpose.
God had also placed in my heart this place, Romania. God placed in my heart a heavy burden I couldn't help but to pray for the specific place.
Let me just pray for the country once again
Father in heaven,
I have a great burden for this specific place, Romania. Lord your people have been shadowed by the doings of Satan. Lord, at your disposal, missionaries will be sent to pioneer that place. People all out for you will bring hope to the land. Romania does not need another beautiful scenery, not another farm or hill. It needs you oh God, it needs a saviour. Lord, i pray today that you bring hope to this land. In the name of Jesus, Amen

I don't know what else to say but God has really been good to me all this while. I really thank God for this trip to the LC because it is a revelation for me, an experience i would deeply appreciate for it has set my mind thinking.

I am not the only pioneer in this world. I have not done my best unless things have moved. God will move big time in the years to come, I'm certain.
It just encourages me how people from all over the world are so on fire for God. Their fiery passion is never dying, never ceasing to keep them from giving any less than their all. Discouragements never seem to stop them.
In africa, four pioneers were sent to plant churches there. Guess what?After a year, it has grown to fifty people! Praise God! It really inspired me that nothing is impossible. Nothing is too hard.

Another man that inspired me greatly was Pastor Willie. He was willing to risk his life for the Gospel and take huge risks. Had a good talk in his room the first day of LC.

There are countless of precious things i have learnt in LC. These are probably less than 20% of it. I wont blog them today, so stay tuned! =D.

Father in heaven,
I thank you for your grace and mercy, and i thank you especially for this conference in which you used to speak to me and the time you gave me to really stop and think about the situation. You have opened doors to unlimited victories and possibilities and God, all i can say is that you are amazing. You are the God of the universe, im certain. Thank you for the times you have been by my side, and all i can say is im really sorry for all this while. I have neglected you and treated you as only a tool for your works. I had never really spent quality time seeking you with all my heart and building our relationship. Here I am today, in awe of the wonders you have done. I stand in awe of your great power and majesty. Reside in me God, as i seek you with all my heart. Talk to me and make my life whole in you. Thank you God, in jesus name i pray, Amen
