Something Interesting...

I was just looking at my old files and I found these very insteresting pictures...

  

Just in case you're wondering.. yup... that's me in the black shirt with the *gasp* curly hair. This picture was taken on October 1, 2005 and it was actually my very very very first time meeting anyone from Heart of God Church. (Fle - do you see your sister sitting beside me? :)

Seems like ages, but I still remember it like yesterday because it forever changed my life. I still can't believe I agreed to go to Martin's house without really knowing anyone. It's all Jon's "fault" -- I was about to back out ('coz Martin lives in Admiralty area which was like the end of the world to me) but Jon came along to pick me up along with some other people.

Speaking of Jon... this is what he looked like in 2005... :)
  


The interesting thing was it was also in Jon's car (right behind the driver's seat) that night that God told me this was my church. I knew it was God because my thoughts were "how could this be my church? I haven't even been to their service? I don't even know what they believe in? What if they're a cult?" 

God is interesting... I bargained with Him and went to service the next day with an open mind and He in turn answered every single question and doubt I had through a sermon Pastor How gave about choosing to be happy today. How can you argue with God? I decided fully plant myself in Heart of God Church and I've never left nor will I ever. :)

To cut the long story short... here I am today, almost 3 years later. I can't imagine what life would be like without Pastors and Heart of God Church... For me, this is for life. Like the song goes...

I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
No turning back, no turning back.

Thank You, Jesus, for bringing me to Heart of God Church
Thank You, Jesus, for Pastor How and Pastor Lia
Thank You, Jesus, for an amazing future

I love God
I love my Pastors
I love Heart of God Church
I love my life

... too bad Jon's aunt sold off the car... sentimental ol' me would've liked to have it around for memories' sake... haha... :)
