HELLO EAST !
i'm here to share with you an advanced testimony ! =D
i'm kinda of ashamed to share that my group didn't have any converts for ESS and seriously we ain't feeling very good about it... but then later in the night when i asked them about it , their replies were like " i gonna work even harder... " and such... once again , God reminded me of my vision He gave me during camp , that picture of junyuan and eastview being completed runs through my mind , the picture of being able to share testimony to the rest telling them how great God is ! my vision given by our great God will be able to come to past !
pray with us , as we fast and pray and work hard, and we'll gonna with all that with have , give our very best to God =D watch out for EA2 alright ! HAHA and it surely takes faith to type this thing out , cos what if it didn't come to past ? HAHA so i'm dead sure that this two schools will , can and must be completed !
eight more weeks down to camp , let's witness the whole EAST completing all our schools before camp ! JIAYOU ! =D
with love ,
denise tiffany =D

Performance or Obedience?
Wednesday, October 15, 2008Â Â 9:29 PM
Hi all,
I am Alvin from EastD2 and just want to share with you guys somethings I learnt along the week. I was listening to a Podcast by Wayne Cordeiro and the few points he mentioned in his sermon served as a health check to most of us as believers.
1. Performance is doing your devotions out of guilt, but Obedience is seeking God with your all.
2. Performance is quickly scanning the passage quickly so you can end your bible reading plans but Obedience is really dwelling in the words and allowing God’s richness to dwell in you.
3. Performance is being your best but Obedience is doing your best.
4. Performance is doing whatever people ask of it but Obedience is doing whatever God asks of you.
5. Performance springs from the fear of failure but Obedience springs from the fear of God.
Are you performing for others to see or are you obeying God?
I think as believers, it is important for us to check our hearts from time to time if we are really following Jesus wholeheartedly. Many of us as we continue to serve, especially when FREEDOM is coming, we tend to just serve out of serving or even lose our own spiritual walk with God in the midst of serving, lets always remember that It is because of his love that's why we are evangelising, It is because of his love that's why we are doing our shepherding, It is because of his love that's why we want to win the schools for Jesus!
With God's power, we can do the impossibles and 13 shall be done!

Hello people! I'm here to share a testimony on how God has moved in my life when I obeyed the Holy Spirit.
Last saturday, there was this sec 2 manjusri convert! *screams
I got to know her when i went to attend eastb3's caregroup on friday to play guitar for worship. There were 2 visitors and she was one of them.
What happened was that during worship as i was playing and praying, God spoke to me that both of them are facing friendship problems. Initially, I thought it was just something in my head and my own imagination. However, HS keep knocking in my heart and I decided to just obey since there's no harm in speaking out also.
It went something like that 'I believe that God wants to speak to 1 or 2 of you here who're facing problems in your life, especially in the area of friendship. Want to let you know that God is our friend, and he is always there for us......"
After worship, I didn't probe much about it. All the way till saturday when the visitor came for service and it was during altar call when God told me to speak to her again. So I reminded her about what was spoken in caregroup that God wants to be her friend, and that she was here not by chance, but for a reason etc. And she converted!
But that's not the end. On Sunday, one of the caregroup members told me something that blew me away totally.
On the very day after caregroup, both the visitors actually smsed to tell her that they're facing bad friendship problems in their lives at that point of time. The manjusri girl even asked why did i get know about this, and thus was interested to go for service the next day. And God used me to remind her about God wanting to be her friend again during altar call. It's so divine!
I was thinking back, if I have never obeyed and spoken during caregroup, will the outcome still be the same? or will she have not come to know God?
Thank God I made the right decision at that point of time.
Thank God He used me, it's really such a privilege (:
God can do the same in your life as well!
Obey the Holy Spirit.
Bring your friends for FREEDOM! (:
