God is always faithful even though we may not be obedient to Him sometimes. He said He will not leave us or forsake us. Indeed, looking back in my life, I found that this is true. I may be wondering away from Him at times, but He is also there, patient with me and urging me to come back to Him.
The song "Forever you are faithful" is nostalgic because some ten years ago while attending FGA in KL, the worship team often sing this song.
"Oh God thank you Lord for being faithful despite my unfaithfulness."

Philip Yancey - Vanishing Grace
Over the weekend the city of Kuching is much blessed with the hosting of the famous Christian author Philip Yancey. This is not the first time he has come to Malaysia, but this is his first time in Kuching. His sharing was hosted by Trinity Methodist Church, Kuching.
In his first session he shared about his new book, "Vanishing Grace" a follow up to his earlier book "What is so amazing about grace?". God's grace is not a problem here, but more and more we do not see grace being dispensed even by Christians. He said in America many people are turning away from God and many hated Christians. How are we to show grace in such atmosphere? In his word, how do we dispense grace? As Christians we are taught to dispense grace to others yet many fall short, including yours truly.
He told a story of a young woman who shared how she ministered to telephone sales people. Many of these sales people called many potentials each day and mostly irritated people slammed down their phones. Therefore, this woman decided to be patient to them and gave words of encouragements. Many broke down from her encouragement.
We ourselves will have similar experiences, like when we waited at the supermarket check out and the cashier needed her superior to clear an error on the cash machine. How do we re-act? Or when we go to fast food out lets and there were delays in serving us? You get the picture.
There are much to learn from his new book "Vanishing Grace".

FBC Family Camp 2015
Last weekend, on 22nd and 23rd Aug 2015, our church had our family camp at Dynawood Beach Stay, Semantan. It was about one and the half hour drive from Kuching.
It was a great family camp and everyone had a great time of fellowship and also great foods! Thanks to our brothers Thomas, Nelson, Nick, and Sisters Nancy, Jenny, Hwei Choo, and many others who put in much work marinating as well as bar be queing the meats. We had chicken wings, lamb, crabs, corn, and sausages.
We had beach games for everyone. After dinner on Saturday, we sat down and sang many songs, thanks to Brother Paul Wong who played the guitar and also our comedian Kristie Pui.
Of course we listened to a message by our invited speaker Pastor Wong Chee Keong, from Charis Church, KL.
All in all a great camp!
