April 1, 2010: Heaven as written by a 17 Year Old Boy

Writer: Merle Albert Knobloch; Editor: Eric Sim;

This is excellent and really gets you thinking about what will happen in Heaven.

17-year-old Brian Moore had only a short time to write something for a class. The subject was what Heaven was like.. "I wowed 'em," he later told his father, Bruce. It's a killer. It's the bomb. It's the best thing I ever wrote." It also was the last.

March 22, 2010: Him
Writer: Carmen Looi; Editor: Eric Sim;


Before and above everything I just wanted to say thank you and that I appreciate very much for this opportunity that has been given to me, This boy is the representation of my passion and why I want to be a Famine Youth Leader.
I have always loved people, but about 4 years ago, I watched a video by Gary Haugen, president of the International Justice Mission. He was instrumental to shaping my passion and helping me put a name to it. He pointed out a verse, Isaiah 1:17 which says, Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the orphan. Fight for the right of widows. In the video he talked about how God being the source of all justice, compassion, power, truth and goodness is most offended by the abuse of it. It moved me, changed the way I viewed the world and I knew then that I wanted to use my life to serve people.

March 12, 2010: Where the Mind Goes, the Man Follows 
Writer: Joyce Meyer; Editor: Lindley Tam;


Jesus said in Luke 6:45, ...out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. And in Proverbs 23:7 the Bible says, ...as he thinks in his heart, so is he... Here, the word heart refers to the mind. In other words, whatever you and I allow into our inner life will eventually be seen in our outer life. So in order to deal with wrong behavior, we need to deal with wrong thinking. The key to victory is learning how to think on the things that God wants us to think- to be renewed in our mind by the power of His Word- instead of thinking on whatever comes into our head.

I love checking up on the sky every now and then. No matter what time of the day it is, the sky looks beautiful.If you go to a rural area where there’s no light polution, the stars in the sky would blow you away with their awesomeness. Even in the city where haze will cloud your vision, the setting sun still manages to paint the horizon with glowing tints of pink and gold.

April 6, 2009: What Shall I Say? 'Father, save me from this hour?'
Writer: Jenna Loo; Editor Rachel Tan;


It was Palm Sunday last week (really, I checked and double-checked), and the speaker delivered good sermon on the triumphal entry, which is when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. There were many good points in that sermon, but the one point that spoke to me was Jesus' words.

February 22, 2009: Letters to CF 
Writer: N/A; Editor: Rachel Tan;


I got lucky today and got into talking with one of our predecessors over lunch. He was one of the crazy ones who really believed in the power of God reigning and taking control over the campus and was not hesitant to do anything for Him at all. He shared with me part of what God has done in his previous marketplace; his school in Taman Sea and listening to that was really empowering. Over 400 people were in one organisation called the Christian Union in a government school and each time there is a camp, it takes 7 buses to fit everyone. Is that amazing or what?
