Merdeka

Celebrate independence day with this indie cover by Brendan de Cruz.


Selamat Merdeka!

awesome God

Recent times, I am often reminded of the beauty of worship songs.

I had this conversation with some folks about songs that touched their hearts. One fella mentioned it was "awesome God" where he heard it few years ago on a Sunday service which so happened I led that song. Apparently, he searched for it and looped it all the time, and that song brought him closer to know God.


To be honest, that song is very simple, in terms of lyrics but yet it's powerful song. It reminds me very much of the power of worship songs -- never doubt how those songs can work among His people especially songs that it's about God.

May this testimony encouraged us worship leaders in choosing our songs and also songwriters as we compose songs.

Worship is all about Him.

Backing track was used on Sunday morning.

Even though we have been doing this every now and then, it's always an opportunity for the worship team to learn and explore. It's always a fun and enriching experience for us. Proud of the team for their effort and creativity for God.

songwriting reminder

It feels as though it was God's way of reminding me to keep writing songs that would impact people.

Last night, Van Whale send me her Instagram posts about her short cover of my original song "Lost in love/Amazing Grace". Thank you very much for it. Lovely.

Totally encouraged by it to know how my songs have been a blessing. Best is yet to come, I always believe.

all is good

Often, I am asked "how's church/fcc/ministry?" and usually I respond by saying "all is well, all is good".

truth to be told, nothing else to answer than it's good because for me, God is always good. All these belong to Him so all is always good.

at the end of the day, people come and go but God is the constant center of it all.

So yea. All is well, all is good.

weekend blessing

This video really made my day. Thanks to my buddy Neil for this video.

So blessed to hear the song we co-wrote is being sung live at his church. Sounds amazing as I hear it and I pray this song we co-wrote will be a blessing to many.

I am vindicated to sing this at FCC someday soon. Yes, someday.

Heartcore at FAA

So honoured to have these champs at FAA youth meeting. Sharing life, sharing love.
