23 June 2006

such a significant date of my life...in fact, its the start of my new life, a day when my past died and i resurrected with a new life..this is the new me, one which i'm proud of...

The Meaning of Baptism
3Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?4We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. -Romans 6:3-4

this is me preparing for my baptism..getting excited over it...finally, this is the day that i've been looking forward to for so long and i really have to thank the Lord for allowing this day to happen for me...to receive blessings from my mum was a tough one but the Lord indeed did not forsake me in this obstacle that i had...

we had to go up stage to proclaim who jesus is to us...mine was "jesus is my source of courage and comfort".....

this photo is a bit dark but it is a pic of me getting baptized by kenneth and a pastor (can't rmb his name)...indeed this is THE moment, to be baptized in the name of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit...


this is me and my dearest mum...dun u think we simply looked great tog?...i thought this photo is so fabulously taken..it was simply my greatest desire to see my mum present today to witness my baptism...i was very touched by her presence and blessings for me....and did i mention that she made it in time for this baptism service? thank you Lord...

i really wanna thank daniel and jian ming for showing their support for me today...i really appreciated their effort to come down, esp jm who managed to come down despite not being able to initially...thanks man...trust and believe in what you have been experiencing right now...He's right here by your side to guide you through and give u the answer you need...

oh kenneth..so excited that he could be here today to baptize all of us from the bandofbrothez...being the spiritual father of the bandofbrothez, he has guided lots of us when we were spiritual babies, to pass down his legacy and to continue this bandofbrothez spirit!..hmmm, somehow i thought our smiles are quite similar, dun you think?

my baptism certificate...a black and white paper to document my rebirth into the kingdom of God...

my gift from kenneth..somehow i wanted to buy this book some time back but was holding back..i guess this is the reason why i held back...books are great gifts for me, esp a gd read which i want...
this gift is so special...this pic is taken during their mt k trip and is the exact same pic which i used for my comp's wallpaper and my msn display pic! its my fav pic from all the scenery photos which i saw....oh my, what can i say? this pic is really meant for me..haha

i also lk to thank chinn yee for the gift and candice for coming before the service esp to pray for me and for the card..although u can't be there during service, but i appreciate your spiritual support...prob i'll come down for yours next time instead ya?...to my bandofbrothez: thank you for coming down in full force to support..this is what family is all abt...and also to those of bros who were baptized with me, we were reborn on the same day..yeah!...let the bandofbrothez continue to grow, to do the will of Him as we commit this cell to Him...

just lk what my msn nick is today, i really feel blessed today...everything that has happened today were all under the control of the Lord and He has made this day very special for me...nothing more can describe the excitement and joy i had today...i really have to say this another time..thank Lord for everything...today mark the date of a new me and the start of many more miracles and challenges ahead as i walk this eternal journey tog with Jesus, the forever Lord and Saviour! Amen
