Another Sun Rise...
Recently I get to see sun rise every morning through my window. It's not like I am being sentimental or anything; I think I could've just messed up my sleeping cycle. I need to fix that as soon as I can.
Your grace and mercy is new every morning, Lord. Just like this sun rise today, every morning the cloud is different, everyday Your love refreshes over my heart. Bless Your name, Lord.
I LOVE YOU, JESUS. Use me to glorify You.

the ONLY thing that is important....
After a 2 hours long meeting before heading over to Vegas mission trip, I hope that everyone would begin to understand what a mission trip means. Lord, at the end I pray that You increase the LOVE for people among us. Whatever we do is to show the love of God to this generation, no matter where they are.
We need warriors who are ready to offend the enemy and defend their teammates; not bunch of clowns! God...strengthen these children of Yours; so that they may know they serve not depending on might nor power, but by the Spirit of the Lord.
Yes, God...Radical Jam is ready to be used by You; through their worship, Lord please mold them and shape them into a sharp blade that will cut off the bondage of slavery.
Lord, increase the LOVE for people in my heart. Increase the sorrow for this generation.
It's my will to be a happy intercessor and a lover of Jesus Christ!

Meatball King
Ladies and gents...Here I present you, the Meatball King!!
Well...if it wasn't for our cell group, the Invaders, I would probably not have the chance to make meatballs. Man, don't they taste good? oh ya...they all came from my mom's special recipe, Lee Mama's tasty meatballs. Perhaps the way I did it wasn't as good as the way my mom would've done it, but it was close enough. I had a good time making it though. I remember the first time I saw my mom making meatballs, I wasn't too excited about that at all; but somehow after all these years, I miss her cooking sometimes. You know, I'd complain about too much oil or salt she put into her dishes; but at the end, it's mom's cooking! Just gotta love it anyway!
Enjoy it! Because we don't know when the next time I would be making another round of meatballs....

Fresh salad
Praise Jesus that I had an awesome salad for lunch! Thanks to my lovely wife, Annie, for making it. It's the best salad ever! It has all the ingredients I love, grapes, strawberries, avocado, lettuce, carrots and much more...most importantly there was no meat and light dressing. hmm... yumm...I love salad.
Book of Acts 10, where Peter first realized the work of God has entered to the Gentiles. Wow...what a turning point for the early church. God, would you wake up this generation so that they may know Your love, mercy and power is entering to them?
Intimacy is the main purpose of prayer.
It is through relationship that God entrusts us the secrets of His heart, that we might express them in prayer.

New York New York....
I got sooooo...sick in New York! How does it happen? I only could guess...hmm...endless workload, restless nights and days and also so many people have been sick around me. On top of that, my pretty wife didn't bring her own jacket to the airplane; so she had to share my jacket while I was extremely cold for 5 hours on the way to NY. Man...what a disaster! I couldn't move much, my bones are sore, my throat is totally "clogged"by something you probably don't wanna know. I was cold sweating like crazy...high fever throughout the night.
Thankfully Annie is with me taking care of me otherwise I could've passed out on the NY streets. It wasn't fun at all!
Now I only want to go home and rest more....and complete the rest of the projects.
What do I want from this whole RL and GB deal? I begin to wonder....

which day is this?
Crazy me...I've lost count of which day it is lately...so tired and exhausted after these two weeks. Why am I so tired? Well...it's a long story..it's because I am stretching myself thin in ministry and work. Sometimes I wonder why I am working and involving in ministry so heavily? God, I really need a vacation...HELP!
it's 4:30am! Annie and I are catching a 7am flight to New York today. It's not a vacation, that I can tell you. More meeting, more workload. I really hope that I don't have to go there, but who knows? I might set up a big trap for myself when I go there? hmm....I could tell you when I come back though.
God, work supernaturally in me. Grant me more strength and energy to go on. Don't let me fall. Amen.
Tonight, Howie's stomach was hurting again. John, Eric and Andy were praying for him; they were singing so loud, I could feel the house was trembling because of their worship. After almost 2 hours, Howie got better; once again God shows His mercy over that boy. The only thing that touched me was that when the brothers gather and praise; it it like fire coming down from Heaven and ignite the surrounding. Just too cool... Brothers! Rise up and Praise!

the Invaders 07.13.07
yo yo...it's the Invaders Night!
Guess what? We didn't do much other than helping out in organizing Impact annual garage sale. Oh God, why do people buy so many junks? Do we all need these stuff? Come on...that's a lot of stuff collected from different families! wow...let's save our environment by spending less money on junks! Well...that includes me. No more junks, Jack. Behave now.
After organizing the "crime", we still had sometime sharing with one another. The coolest thing about Impact people is that they are extremely spirited and energetic! But we need to focus and get things DONE! Quit talking and get things done! Thanks for your corporation.
As matter of fact, I am glad that Jennifer shared about her experience during IHOP; may God keep stirring up her heart for Christ.
This week is really crazy for me. Sleepless nights and days due to my ignorance and workload. God, I am tired of doing what I am doing...when is it gonna end? sigh...give me strength and help me to go through this month...
Pray for me.. :(

Surrounded by grace
God is good all the time!
On Sunday, we were so blessed by the testimonies from brothers and sisters; we want the same blessing and grace they've received or even greater! Praise the Lord!
City Invasion people shared how they encountered signs and wonders, healing and restoration when they prayed for people at the mall and trader joe's. Wow...that totally inspired us!
Summer Teen Intensive (STI) people just came back from IHOP, they shared too. That was a bomb! Gold dust, Anointing oil in air, Holy Laughter, Angels..etc...that was totally encountering God for them! Praise the Lord!
God is real and everlasting!
After the mountain top experience, now they are coming back to the valley where they will face everyday reality and problem; I pray that God keeps on stirring up their faith to follow Jesus no matter what trails they will go through in life.
JESUS ROCKS!

the Invaders - 07.06.2007
Wonderful Savior, Jesus.
When Your name is being lifted up, You bring people to Yourself; we are only the messengers.
We had 8 people in our cell group tonight, 1 of the 4 who received Jesus from last time came back with a new friend, Tony. Tonight Tony accepted Jesus for the first time. After a short message, I asked Tony if he wants to receive Jesus as his personal Savior; unexpectedly, he says "yes". Hallelujah! God is awesome! We all prayed for Tony. I pray that God keeps on leading him to the truth of Jesus.
Good job leading worship, JB and JW. Your support is remembered by Him, RW and JL.
Keep praying for Key, Tony, Panda, Kitty, Selena, Edwin and many more. God, hear our cry!

Face your fear.
I hate to admit it to myself, but sometimes when I think back to some past hurtful experiences I would get very negative for few hours. Isn't it always a mental battle for us to fight? I guess I am hoping to fight as much as I possibly can. For example, I would be afraid to face my lack of enthusiasiam about God, or I would be afraid to face losing a job, or losing someone...
I need Jesus all the time...
God, I love you. Fire me up, don't let me walk away from You.

Spiritual Warfare
Believe or not, we are facing spiritual warfare everyday; whether you are aware of it or not, you are in it!
We are currently experiencing much heavier warfare, because we are becoming more aggressive in attacking the devil. After and during Jesus Culture, we are going into our neighborhoods to share and pray for people; how are we not expecting any attack from the devil? We need to be ready and prepared for more battles.
Lord, please keep us safe and secure. You are my strength and shelter; in You I have my protection. Bless You, Lord.
Please keep Sarah/Momo/Stephanie/May/Joy/Andy/George/Priscilla/Tiffany/MQ/Joshua/John/Eric/Annie/Jack safe and ready to fight!

Jesus Culture_OC
Early this year, we had finally received a vision about Impact Harvest Church during our stay at IHOP. What we want to do is just 3 things, To Encounter, To Train, To Send. During this conference, Signs & Wonders, at IHOP; interestingly enough we got to know this special event called Jesus Culture. Somehow it reminded me of a year ago I received a post card from Jesus Culture, I didn't know what it was but I kept it till today. After going through Jesus Culture website, deep inside of my heart, I know that IHC needs to join Jesus Culture because the vision that God gave us at the IHOP prayer room matches with Jesus Culture.
This is God's heart for our generation! To Encounter. To Equip. To Send.
Finally we went to Jesus Culture, it was a phenomenal experience! City Invasion, praise & worship, dancing before God, encouraging messages, wow...they just blew me away.
City Invasion: We went down to Dana Point Harbor to pray and prophesy over people. It's my first time doing this street evangelism, prophetic message, heal the sick in a public place; I do it in a cell group or church setting, but never heal the sick or prophesy over people in public places. Yes, i did street evangelism before although it was not a pleasant experience. Many IHC young adults experienced God's supernatural works on people. I personally was hoping to know how they do it, so I basically just "follow the leader". Humility comes before honor, eh?
We did have a chance to pray for a man who was hoping to come back to God; he had problem with his boss or the owner of the company, we prayed for him and he was very touched. I could see tears in his eyes when we finished praying. Lord, bless this man so that he will come back to you once again.
After Jesus Culture, IHC young people started going to public places ie. restaurants, parks to pray and prophesy over people. Let the revival begin, Lord!
