Phil 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"

Easter Sunday, a special sunday indeed... not only becos it reminded me that Christ resurrected on this day, i was especially reminded of His Grace in a measure that i have not encountered.

2 weeks back during one of the leaders' meeting, Ps Julie said in order to be a conqueror, we must have something to conquer first, then she followed with this question "What is it that you want to conquer?" Faced with a tough challenge at that point in time, my answer in my heart was "Myself".....

Its always easy to say and sing " Tell the world...", it was impossible for me to sing that last 2 weeks, cos the Lord with His truth challenged me to share Christ with someone unlovable and at times irritable...so that she have a chance to know of His salvation.

Its a tough challenge for me cos she is neither a stranger nor a loved one to me,there is this tension within me, to obey God and my discomfort. Prayed... tried.. words simply got stuck at the edge of my lips...

On easter sunday, as i stepped into the congregation worship, looking at the snippets, listening to the words of song, i crumbled in the face of grace of God... felt so weak, so unworthy as my heart was reluctant to obey. Caught a glimpse of the grief when Peter failed, caught a glimpse of His grace thats sufficient for me to "Tell the world..." at the end of worship.

Victory and breakthru came on Easter Sunday night, when the words finally come out " Do u know who is Jesus?"...... remembering something gor told me, no one can run faster than God... true, cos i dejava vued after i shared Christ... Indeed its in His Hands! found comfort in that and His words (Phil 4:13)totally on Easter Sunday.. All Glory to Him!!!!!!! Amen!
