I have little else to say except that its the mystery of the heart of God. Once we get that life is to be given away and have access to this truth, then we can truly be rich. Life is truly for giving away. We can’t understand divine mystery. We can only abide to it and do it with joy.

A few days ago, I asked my wife how much I use for pocket money after every thing is carved out per month. I decided to give away 10% of how much I spend on top of my regular tithe. Just for fun, Ripple Generosity in my way of practicing “Pure Religion” for the cause of under-served children and widows. Join me to raise $500 by end of this year for World Vision.

Do it here…

I’m also moving Ragsstudio.com as a place where we can use our talent, time and treasure to serve children in the city and the world

Spent a little time in the afternoon doing this painting. It was a doodle and practically improvised it all the way. At the end of one hour or so, it turned out to be a tree planted by the streams of water on a nice late afternoon. Incomplete, I will paint the leaves on it another time.

What do you think? Where can this painting go?

If the vision is going to be on a board, here’s how it will look like.

If you are parents, here are 7 reasons why you should attend the conference:

Reason #1: It will renew your purpose as a leader in the home and learn beyond physical parenting to spiritual parenting. You don’t want another year but you want an exciting and amazing faith filled year!

Reason #2: It will help you understand the influence of the child beyond the home and help you prepare for it

Reason #3: It will inspire you to find your fit in the big picture of impacting the next generation

Reason #4: You will fellowship and learn from passionate kids/youth leaders (including Jason Wong who is a national movement leader which we specially invited to inspire our hearts)

Reason #5: You will meet leaders of your kids there

Reason #6: It’s compulsory for us as parents to own the discipleship of our own child. If God doesn’t use parents to led the way for kids discipleship, who will He use?

Reason #7: Last but not least, the conference T-shirt and buffet lunch @ Tawandang Brewery at Suntec that includes Tom Yum Prawn, Grilled German Sausage and Fried Sea Bass are already worth the price of admission ($30)

And of course … we all know this is where God wants you to be!

If you are a children worker,  here’s 7 reasons why you should attend the conference:

Reason #1: It will renew your vision serving in the kids ministry. You don’t want another year but you want an exciting and amazing faith filled year!

Reason #2: It will help you understand the influence of the child beyond the ministry and the church

Reason #3: It will inspire you to find your fit in the big scheme of impacting the next generation

Reason #4: You will fellowship and learn from passionate kids/youth leaders (including Jason Wong who is a Godly National Movement leader which we specially invited to inspire our hearts)

Reason #5: You will meet parents of your kids in your life group. (Oh by the way, please invite them along)

Reason #6: It’s compulsory for us as a team to own this ministry and hence the conference. If God doesn’t use children workers to led the way for kids discipleship in our church, who will He use?

Reason #7: Last but not least, the conference T-shirt and buffet lunch @ Tawandang Brewery that includes Tom Yum Prawn, Grilled German Sausage and Fried Sea Bass are already worth the price of admission.

And of course … we all know this is where God wants you to be!

The Ukelele is not a big instrument but in the right hands it really is something big. Kids aren’t either but in the right hands, they can be amazingly huge!

A faith mindset is a result of having knowledge of who God says we are and what we can be and do. It is the direct opposite of a fear mindset that robs us from joy of living an extraordinary life. Here are some declarations that will help you develop a faith mindset that is rooted in God’s Word

“I am God’s beloved (1 Peter 5:7). I have no insecurities and I’m free (Psalm 119:45). I see myself how God sees me (Jeremiah 2:21)”

“I am fully equipped with God’s providence (1 Timothy 6:17) and abundance”

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Psalm 29:11, Isaiah 40:29, Philippians 4:13)”

“I don’t know impossibility because nothing is impossible for God. If God is for me nothing can be against me (Luke 18:27)”

“I am fulfilled and happy in Christ. I can help others be fulfilled and happy too (Jude 1:2)”

It begins with nothing and it’ll end with nothing that we bring with us. Welcome to what God is doing for our time on earth… unstoppable renewal! Hope you’ll find something useful in your work of renewal here.

Basically what we are doing there in Ragsstudio… is FROM OLD TO NEW always!
