My passion is moving and changing. Or in actual fact, i have not realise what is my passion ultimately. is it music? is it serving? is it leading? My desire for singing, is diminishing.. perhaps because something greater have come.. my calling for NOW.. to lead a greater flock. to display my leadership and pastoral heart for his followers. No longer the stirring of passion in music will disrupt my focus in leading the group, the unit.. not because they are not important to me anymore, in fact, music still plays a major part of my life.. but when God's calling come when u are staying focus on him, nothing can stop u from returning and reciprocating his call. U will just go straight and take up the challenge.
now i long to firm up my desire in being a strong leader for him. to be a salt and light to all potential leaders whether in studies, in work or in pastoral. Though currently im still shaking in believing that i too, despite of my weakness, can lead BIG for god, i trust God will pull me through this time of determining my faith n perseverance. passion for his name, is what i want to instill in my heart. a passion that can only be found in my service to the Lord, a passion that is only worthy of his name, a passion that longs to go after God. Father! hear this prayer for a passion after you! I long to be passionate for your kingdom. for every work that you called me to do in my life.

I will call yesterday unit curdle a HQ "winter" cleaning instead to clear up your doubts. But it was fun! It's just so satisfying and fulfiling when the unit people come together to make their home a better one, and at the end of the day, everybody enjoy the cabonara and the "fried sphagetti" with sweat and laughters. Looking back, it was fruitful and indeed our unit people have grown.. people take intiative to lead games, to look out for any one that is left behind, to excite each other to help out in the cleaning, to intiate to help.. that was great!
No longer the leaders have to always be keeping a lookout.. but the people are growing strong! John, intiate to take care of the flock when all the leaders are busy preparing their best for the dinner.. Vincent, who is very flexible in leading the games.. That was good! keep it up SP guys! Many fringe members enjoyed greatly too.. such as yan han, who kept laughing at the way i talk.. evangeline, who went crazy yesterday.. hahaha. Zhanhong who is growing to become more n more open with the people in the unit, and im seeing his real self breaking out of that shell.. jia you people! let's stay close to the group!
I have a great time together with my leader.. MR BOSS PHERD. he went crazy yesterday and become so damn funny. OMG. i want to die because of his SLYness. show me that face again!!! you will know his madness if you are present yesterday.. use left over sphagetti to make dog food? give the doggy face? make doggy sound? splash WATER on me?? USE doggy to hit my head?? OMG. keke. Okay lar. he is NICE leader in case he use hebrew 13:17 again. OOPs. leading life closely with my leader! prayer answered! a note for mr lennon: jia you in your studies! i will continue to be your strong armour bearer de! SP will grow in momentum and will definitely break the bench mark! BLUE seats is ours!
Too bad those who cant make it miss all the fun. so SAD. keke. thanks to all SPians who have help out yesterday, the unit curdle, was a SUCCESS!
AMEN.

Hereby i make my little prayer to the Lord.
To ask for his provision and coverings over this life that was never perfect.
Lord hear this prayer from a grateful heart. I give thanks to you for your faithfulness in my life.. everytime i called out to you, you will be there to answer.. when i knock, you will open that door for me.. Thank you for being there with me, in times of tests and trials, in moments of joy and excitement.. Father not let me fall short of your goodness, let me continue to shine in your light and be your flames in this world. I long to follow your directions..
Father listen to the confessions of your steward. For i come to you with a repentful heart to confess every single act of emotions that have rush into my mind when i did not calm and stay focus on you.. father i repent of many actions that i have conduct that was not pleasant in your eyes, those that i was aware and those that i have not taken notice.. For i long to be consecrate by you, so may i be sanctified to do your work.. Father give me clean hands and a pure heart, so may i be purify and not be lead my my sinful nature when i lead your flock. Guard my heart.
O God, anoint your leader with more wisdom and knowledge.. So may i be equipped to lead your flock. Give me a reservoir of understanding so that i can teach your sheeps your way and guide them with powerful strategies. Search in my heart, that all i long to own this is not for my own glory, but is to be a better support i your kingdom.. i long to expand your land with your provision, if ever me, your steward have fall into the trap of the devil, remove this from me, until i have learnt to come back to you again. For my desire to be empower by your prowess is to serve, not to gain.. Thus Lord answer this request from your servant!
Father i pray for you to increase the territory of this dry and weary land.. and as i hold true to your rhema verse, psalms 63:1, i trust in you that when we call out to you, you will answer.. father we are desperate for growth, and we desire to break the bench mark! Lord answer this long prayer that we have made to you! allow us to witness new wineskins! allow us to hear news of converts! allow us to fill up the blue seats! together we pray hard for your hand to be upon this land of SP! 70 end dec 2006! we want to make it and we will make it! father allow us to celebrate the glory this coming christmas.. as i wait for your harvest. Lord use us bless us. all cries to you.
ah pa? i love u. keke.

You are a Total Romantic
For you, love is like a fairy tale.
Or magic. Or a Meg Ryan movie.
Problem is, you sort of want all three.
You bring the spark in the relationship
In turn, you expect your guy to keep the fire burning
Not a bad deal, as long as you find the right Prince.

And im glad he is fine, giving me His silly smile once again, and doing his favourite "hopekids" performance of behaviour to me. I really appreciate for what he have done.. though many times break my heart!!! make me grieve over him..... But well, the Lord have build him strong!!!

The sunday singers meet was new to me. Though the programs flow, the presentations, the musicians, the praise and worship, the size of the people coming, may not seems magnificent over view, but indeed i can feel the joy in every one who took part in performing as well as those who took part as audience. everybody have the heart to be a good minister for God.
Presentations of classical, jazz, Ballad, POP and rock music was great. People in hope church singapore could really sing really well you know! I look forward to our next album.. and indeed as what nel have quoted, we will not see our album sold in hope resource only! It be sold in bookstores.. in life bookshops.. in christian CD shops.. everywhere we go, we will see hope church singapore own version, own written, own composed songs played on air! whee~
I could see rising musicians among our midst.. Though they may not have done very well, as compare to the standards the twamers have set, they really tried their very best to honour God with their skills! Jovin, Joycelyn, David, Jason, Ben! you guys did really well! Quick grow and serve God greater with your talents, in unit, in caregroup, in congregations, in camps, everywhere, make full use of what God have given to you! continue to soar in your passion!
The announcements was fantastic.. im excited for the christmas choir performance! Im all ready to experience to a greater level of being on stage singing together with all other for God! We're going to sing carols.. We're going to spread the love of God, the joy of the celebrations, with our VOICES! yes! our vocals shall be the vessel God anoints to touch every people heart who have ears to listen! Come! Let's bring choir to a even greater HEIGHT! Furthermore.. there is going to be two month intensive training! going to learn how to harmonise! whee~ Been looking forward to that.. Cause been trying to learn the techniques! and now i have the opportunity! And some more some more! we're going to have a combine choir practise as the whole church level! wow~ this is getting professional, we're going to have large size choir practise! soooo EXCITED!
Last but not least, i was reminded of one thing during the time as nel was briefing us through the inspirational talk.. we give 100% to the lord in our pastoral ministry.. like wise we also want to give 100% in our singers ministry! Give it all for God! Give it all!
LORD i want to give my all to you. all for you.

Your Dominant Intelligence is Musical Intelligence
Every part of your life has a beat, and you're often tapping your fingers or toes.
You enjoy sounds of all types, but you also find sound can distract you at the wrong time.
You are probably a gifted musician of some sort - even if you haven't realized it.
Also a music lover, you tend to appreciate artists of all kinds.
You would make a great musician, disc jockey, singer, or composer.
Genesis Jorris 3:57:00 AM
It's once again saturday. the service day. the hectic week shall ends its conclusion and i shall get to know the reason behind for everything that have happen in the week on this day. The day where God never fails to speak during the time we spend in that two hours to dwell in his congregation.
Today was unique. I was enlightened through many unexpected circumstances. I was made known to many areas God want me to apply and implement to the unit and my people. And God reminds me of my prayer of being a salt and light in every area of my life through situations. And indeed i learnt it Hard.
He said:
Give everything their priorities. Dun jumble them up.
I learnt that i should never place families, ministries, campus, devotions all together and weigh their priorities and do them respectively. Each are equally important. Each are priorities of my life. I should give them equal attention. How do i learnt it? Today is my dad birthday and yet i forgotten about it. I was commenting its Ok, but deep inside i felt really bad. I didnt even greet him happy birthday yet. God, help me to express my gratitude to my parents and give me Love to bless them! Lord help them in their financial! I need you to bless us provision!
God speaks:
Be bold. Go ahead and do what ever the spirit prompts you and urge you. Dun hesitate and doubt the SPIRIT. I am indeed in you and with you.
It was amazing. But i did not obey the spirit today. Lord i repent to you for not trusting and not firming my faith that you are indeed working through me. And thus i bear the consequences. Service ending, i was prompted to approach my sheep. But i did not. he was all the way at the other end. i wanted to go over, but i stood still. like my feets were stuck to the ground unable to move. i told myself, later. later i shall go. i shall pray for him. And there i did what was wrong, PROCRASTINATE!
Something indeed went wrong. He was weary and moody after his meeting. His emotions swell again and his mood swings greatly. I do not know what to do. All i can is to pray over for him. All i can is to wait for him to cool down and teach him, and help him to control his emotions. To firm his foundations stronger in the Lord.
Lord. anoint your servant with greater LOVE. with greater PATIENCE. with greater HEART. please.
God impress:
BURN. FAN. FIRE. These words came into my mind since last week.. i do not know what they represents, but i just kept thinking of them. Kept thinking. and never once they go off my mind. I just want to hold it till the time has come. And indeed. Today the LOrd have revealed. What's the significance of it. What does it means.. Why he want me to experience these before it truely be applied to bring the people to BURN. to FAN. to FIRED up. the song "burn" came to me two times today. The song "consuming fire" have just gotten me into deep worship with the Lord in an unexpected place, the bus. He shown me a time of worship together with the people. He show me every little details that the prayer shall contains. It was amazing. And at that point of time, i knew.. this was what he wants to speak to us. To remember that it is the LORD that fills us ANEW! fill us ANEW! that fan us into FLAME! It's him. we need to SEEK. it is an urgency. To burn, and to be in flame. LORD! Stir it up in our hearts! Stir it up in our hearts!
God comforts:
I will give you a pure heart. I will give you clean hands. DO NOT doubt whether you are capable or whether you are RIGHTEOUS enough to be my vessel. FOR it is I who choose, i who DO, i who WORK.
Lord you've been merciful to your servant. Though im never the best, on the contrary, im often the weakest, you used me, you cleanse me, you purify and consecrate my heart, to prepare me for your WORK. for your HARVEST. The question that i had in mind, whether or not am i leading his people well, whether or not is it because i have not been able to do my best, was answered today during the altar call. He comforts me to remind me of his grace. About his plans for us. LORD! Help me to understand the fullness of your grace. Help me to find security of the vision when things dun go right. When situations are dry. When the devil schemes have hitten all those who are weak in you.. GIVE ME THE KEY TO FAITH. WHICH LEADS TO SUCCESS.
Genesis Jorris 3:24:00 AM
Its really late right now and im so excited to post something because i have a great time enjoying my shepherding over some baking session with BOSS-PHERD and also because i got myself a new skin!
This skin attracted me right in the first place because of the WORD devotion. It reminds me of seeking the Lord. Of finding him through his word and spending time alone to dwell in his presence. I long to devote my time to him, to meditatively and prayefully complete my devotions daily without fail and with great gladness. Nevertheless, often weariness and laziness will draw us to procrastination! Lord i do not want to delay my devotions! i want to DEVOTE to you!
Back to my exciting weekdays. its saturday already! so fast! this week was a hectic week for me.. school work piling up.. caregroups to lead.. sowing activities.. planning of evangelism for the next 3 months.. Fellowshipping with afew of my EX-unit sisters with tennis.. Shepherding sessions.. confirmation planning.. Combined caregroup preparation.. So many things to do and so little time! but the Lord have help me to experience him greatly during this time and i learnt the power of focusing on HIM. when i place my focus on him these few days, i found myself to be charged unknowingly by a source of powerful strength that never runs out! i was energetic to be excellence in all the areas that i have to take note this week.. and indeed the Lord bless me with fruitful weekdays!
As i spend the time together with BOSS-PHERD over at the kitchen enjoying my time shaping my tarts pastry, i felt relieved. my prayers to the Lord once again about my relationship with my leader have been answered. already. I can communicate well with lennon, can share deep thoughts with him, and we can really have fun together! This is what i have been praying to the Lord since the beginning of my walk, to lead life TOGETHER with my shepherd.. its happening now, and im pleased. im glad. I waited for very long. But the Lord did not failed me. He answered me eventually.
The egg tarts was successful! it was delicious and yummy.. the pastry was damn crispy and nice! Not too sweet, not too bland. JUST NICE. too bad the eclairs failed! Due to the malfunction of the oven i think, because the temperature was not suitable.. We made fruit tarts in the end, but seems like it fails... due to the whipped cream.. was too watery.. perhaps when we beat it, it was not sufficient. Should give it a few more beats. NVM! it was a successful day for us!
Going to take over guitar class tomorrow.. Having it at esplanade 2pm! have to wake up early enough! and furthermore, i have not run through the notes! going to teach bar chords tml, they sure want to strangle me.. (all the new learners) Going to give my best to impart my skills and what ever i know to them! Lord anoint your servant with flexible fingers and a mind of wisdom! So may i teach your children well during the time we spend to invest in learning guitar for your kingdom..
All right. Last but not least i shall say this again. DENY & DEFY ALL ODDS. its the key. to success. in the KOG. AMEN!
Genesis Jorris 3:07:00 AM

Genesis Jorris 12:10:00 AM
Im filled with holy anger all over me right now. i can't stop the heat from coming and raising to my head and spreading through my limbs. Im angry for God! The fury over the unrighteous and blesphemer is covering my entire body. Spiking anybody who comes near me. Please my dearies, stop doing what you will regret..
Let me cool down my heart. Perhaps being angry was one way that i used to disperse my LOVE that was not reciprocate by those who have not known and have not understood the grace of God.. God forgive them! For they do not know! When i witness those who proclaim about God's goodness now blespheming his name and have gone down into darkness with attitudes.. my heart break.. Why have they not stand firm on their faith? Why have they deceives themself with their emotions? Why did they let their heart turn away from God? When i heard of those that have testify of God's power yet chose to leave him and end the race, i tear for them. Why did they not continue the race after being assured of God at the end of the route? Why are they so weak to standing firm in what they believe in? WHY!
Im upset that i cant do anything to speak or impact in their lives.. I fear for them that they will never return back and ultimately regret their decisions.. My greater heart could only pray for them, because there is no extra mile for me to take.. it is them! it is them who choose whether to open their heart! it is them who allow God to enter their lives! God please soften them! God please show them the way! God please guide their life! God please stir their hearts! God please activate the holy spirit to contain your realness! God bring them back!
For all those fellow comrades that are together with me in this battle against the devil, for all those brothers and sisters who is together with me as a body of christ in the KOG, for all those ambassadors who have chose to follow and offer their lives to God, PLEASE walk close with him.. you never know when is the next devil's scheme, so be alert and stay close with the holy one.. i urge you to maintain your stamina in the race with God! You will never want to lose sight of him! SO TAKE PRECAUTIONS NOW!
Lord bring them all back. AMEN!

today im going to post about my new sheep, joella today! Now that we have both grown and is leading care groups now in SP unit.. we too grew close during the process of growing.. we had quarrels and even bad conflicts, we have laughter and tears, we go through god's testing together.. and im glad to hear her sharing that god have used me to help her mould her control in emotions! And im so glad to see her standing firm and strong for god in her service to the lord! Indeed, i have a burden for her.. for Joella. to help her to win the africans with confidence and courage that derives from the source lord Jesus Christ. Really glad our relationship are growing well! am really pleased and assured that she is willing to share her thoughts and feelings to me.. and hope that i can be a person to help to answer her questions in leading the group.. Father! Help us to help each other! guide us by guiding each other! God let me be your vessel to shepherd Joella to a greater servant for you! Lord, Thank you so much. AMEN.
She had been a faithful servant for god.. going through lots of ups and downs, where she face dryness in her spiritual walk, and learning to persevere and to get up and continue the race even when she falls.. never give up spirit, she have it in her. When i came to hope church, she was already a believer, and she was the one who take part in sharing the gospel to me and patiently fast n pray over for me, so may i receive christ into my life.. really appreciate what she have done for me and also her faith in god!
Genesis Jorris 4:51:00 AM

Genesis Jorris 9:56:00 PM
the CHOLERIC episode.
- seldom shows embarrassment, is forward or bold.
- Is eager to express himself
- argumentative and persuasive.
- impetuous and impulsive
- Is self-confident and self-reliant; take success for granted.
- Exhibits strong initiative; prefers to lead.
- Is very sensitive and easily hurt
- reacts strongly to praise or blame.
- Seclusive.
- quick and decisive in movement
- marked tendency to persevere
- not freely or spontaneously expressed, except anger.
- Makes best appearance possible; may use hypocrisy, deceit, disguise.
As i was browsing through the net and thinking through my personal understanding of choleric personality, i spotted quite a few similiarities in relevant to the sanguine personality. Both are forward and bold, not afraid of embarrasment. Both are impulsive in making decisions. Both are decisive in dealing with changes. Both are eager to express themselves especially in front of a group, they just cant swallow what they want to say for a minute. So what's the different between sanguine and choleric? Are they often associate together? Or is it that usually a person that have one of the temperaments, will have the other also?
Hmm.. in my own opinion, YES. Indeed usually people who are choleric and are successful tends to be sanguine also.. perhaps the reason is because to take control, to be the leader, you need to be people oriented. And all sanguines are people-oriented. CHOLERIC to me are those who are independent, ambitious, strong-willed, demanding, result-oriented, directive, clear and certain, the leader. People who are choleric are often the extremist in leadership. They soar high, they go far, but im not talking about TEAM. If the person is pure choleric, most likely he or she is one who likes to do things alone. They believe in themselves more than believing more is the better. They really devote their life to this word call, SUCCESS.
Sometimes people cant bear those who are choleric. because of this really distinctive factor they have in their personality, that is, DEMANDING. Choleric people in their pursue for success will tend to demand alot from the people around them because they demand alot from themselves to contribute and fight for success. Somehow because of their ambitious heart, it have blinded them from realising not everybody have the same determination that they have. But CHOLERIC people are important roles in fighting for success, because they are the one that boost the group with conviction, that gives the team confidence that there will always be people fighting for success! Its the same thing like sanguine, the whole cant live without them. Everyone will be in their comfort zone, not developing, not moving, not drivin through.
I have CHO in me, which indeed sometimes i display my demanding factor in me on my people, on my friends and family around me. I will ask of them to run at the same speed with me without finding out their stamina at certain times.. But well, i learnt this hard! And im on the way in learning to be a good leader in pulling the conviction level up as well as being understandin to my people. God help me! I have mix feelings towards my choleric friends... i dun like those who fight alone, but i like their energy and committment level when ever they se channels towards success.. people who are choleric can be people like jasmine, elisha, nel, Joel, Jason, and many others.. I respect their style of leadership, but to certain extent i would like to rest away from the intensiveness and result-orientation.. =)
Mainly i just want to say, if you have notice choleric around them, dun think that they are really people make of METAL and do not need encouragement to help them to boost in their conviction.. because this is the mentality many have... therefore like to encourage all of you guys who happen to have choleric buddies, do share a word of affirmation to them to boost their conviction so they can go even further! Let's appreciate for what they have done in the leadership arena!
AMEN. More to come again.

Genesis Jorris 3:58:00 PM
was browsing through people's blog and edmund's blog caught my eyes with his emotion series published... was thinking it was a great attempt in trying to understand the different emotions attitudes and people (just that his english was bad, haha.)... therefore i decided to publish the temperaments series for my own understanding as well as for the pleasure of my readers.
the SANGUINE episode.
The Sanguine:
- Is self-composed, seldom shows signs of embarrassment, perhaps forward or bold.
- Is eager to express before a group; likes to be heard.
- Prefers group activities; not easily satisfied with individual projects.
- Agrees readily with others' wishes; compliant and yielding.
- Is good in details; prefers activities requiring pep and energy.
- Is impetuous and impulsive
- Is keenly alive to environment; likes curiosity.
- Tends to take success for granted. Is a follower; lacks initiative.
- Is hearty and cordial; forms acquaintanceship easily.
- Not given to worry and anxiety; is carefree.
- Seeks wide and broad range of friendships
- Is quick and decisive in movements
- Little perseverance.
- Makes adjustments easily; welcomes changes
- Is frank, talkable, sociable, emotions readily expressed
- Has frequent fluctuations of mood
Are you a sanguine? I am indeed. I am a sanchlomel to be exact, meaning i have the traits of being a sanguine, a choleric, and a melancholic in me. Having the "san" traits right in front of the description represent that majority of my temperaments are under the category of sanguine. Being a sanguine, areas that reflects in my life are that i have a wide range of friends.. regardless of whatever personality they possess, i will be able to make acquaintances with them rapidly and be able to communicate to them well.. I have the ability to make decisions fast, therefore contributing to the fact that i am flexible in being decisive towards immediate changes.. Im a planner, therefore equipped by the traits of being able to pay great attention to details in a sanguine.. How about you? are you able to identify your traits if you are a sanguine?
I understand that the majority of the people falls under the category of sanguine.. some people will identify sanguine with the following words: cheerful, emotional, LOUD, talkative, BOLD (as in not afraid of "losing" face), seeks attention, noisy, etc.. But will there be cases where people misunderstand the person being a sanguine? i think so. But not that obvious and possible as compare to other temperaments.. because being sanguine are quite exclusive and apparent.. where as chloeric, melancholic and phlegmatic are harder to spot..
I have lots of friends who are sanguine, people like edmund, leonard, nel, zephanie, faith, randall, alvin timothy, James, jenice, vernon, fish, yeukai, nancy, and many more. They are always the bunch of people who are categorize under the "atmosphere lifters"... im included of course. Because the world cant live without the sanguine... it will all turn dull and meaningless.. It will be boring, it will be strict, it will be stern, it will be quiet, it will be like a world who are just toiling for work and themselves and never realising the LOVE in humans.. like the saying goes: LOVE makes the world goes round! without love, how can the world sustain?
I LOVE sanguine... they are always the ones that makes me smiles.... they are always the ones that sacrifice themselves being a fool and a clown just to make people laugh.. They are hyperactive and you just cant miss any of them if they are around... agree with me? keke. simply LOVE them man! therefore as i end this episode, let's spend some time pondering over the characteristics of sanguine.... think about it... are you truely a sanguine? or you are a mix? how much does sanguine means to you in your life? have you appreciate these sanguine who brighten your days with a joke or making a fool out of themselves? Let's show some encouragement to these people to tell them that who they really are have contribute to your days!!!
LOVE YA ALL. entitled to the sanguines living in the world. =)
