The Dream Castle

Reconnecting with God's Heart for Missions

for everyone

Go Fest was a highlight for me. Apart from the joy of serving with fellow CEFCians and getting to know them better just by sheer proximity for most and by sheer girlish chattering for some others, I got to see two very special people and got involved in a very special project with phoonie by divine appointment.

Check out phoonie's album Behold Your Beauty produced in-house. I was really privileged to be a part of this production process by doing the additional vocals, recorded on her Apple Powerbook at Expo during Go Fest, level 4 of Adelphi and some obscure corner near Arts House. Read about the adventure of this Mobile Recording on her blog.

But above all the human interactions and divine appointments, I got another precious glimpse into God's heart for the lost. Something that have been quite remote to me ever since my tsunami relief trip to Sri Lanka in Jan 05 and amidst busying with ministry commitments. Ironic how serving in ministry sometimes seem to cast the cry of the lost into the shadows and make the ultimate goal of seeing multitudes come to know the Lord and worship Him at His feet such a remote one from everyday life.

Nevertheless, it was such a tender sight to behold, as different speakers at Go Fest share of their own experiences in living with and helping the lost, during crises and the doldrums of life. From John Dawson's ministering of the Lord's tenderness towards children, to the passionate and tearful plea of Yerry on behalf of the disaster-stricken people of Indonesia, to the very heartfelt and personal outworking of Yog's ministry in living amongst the Cambodians and offering a home and family to the Cambodian children who have been abandoned by their own.

How can one remain impassioned in the light of even a small fraction sharing of these people of God?

And so it is in this light that I set forth for Church Camp... and we all know what happened to me.

More coming up..

yeah, in-house.... mostly in the comfort of my messy room! =P
Keep that passion and heart for the lost and remind yourself the visions and dreams God gave you! That's pressing in! =)
