About Me

COME ON. STIRRRRRRR IT UP.
Check out my blog la - natbox.blogspot.com
I am a sucker for sunsets. And sunrises to be honest. OK, anything concerning creation basically. The visible evidence of God's awesomeness, right in front of my eyes.
Love it. One word. GLORRRRRRRRRRY.
"And these are but the outer FRINGE of his works; how faint the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?" (Job 26:14)
So. I'm 29 years old. I am the Marketing Coordinator for the best church in the entire WORLD: Planetshakers. Laughing is my favourite sport. I am very passionate. About a lot of things. I am PASSIONATE about Jesus Christ and what He's done in me. My life spun around on a Cathay Pacific flight from Melbourne to Boston in July 2004 when I watched the Passion of the Christ and had a revelation. Confused about my life's direction, I suddenly realised the magnitude of a Saviour who died to give me freedom. Ah sweet freedom. The unfathomable and undeserving grace is too much to comprehend. This is why I am PASSIONATE about worshipping this Saviour of mine. Giving everything I have within me to give him glory.
So I came home to Melb in Feb in 2006 after living in Hong Kong for 2 and a half years. Mmmm...Dim Sum & fun times;) I have a passion for Asia and basically any location in this whole world. Yes yes. Traveling excites me. I love people. Just chatting. About anything. Hmmmm, what else do I love: Singing. Living with my family. Love it. Writing in my journal. Playing with friends. Planetshakers' Praise & Worship. Sitting in the sun with girlfriends chatting about 'stuff'. Shopping in supermarkets overseas. Sunrises and sunsets. Reading a good book. Changing currency in a new country. Fish & chips on St Kilda Beach on a hot night. Running along the beach on a summers morning. Learning new languages "ngor ho geng ah". Writing songs. Meeting new friends. Reading my bible and hearing the voice of God so clearly it freaks me out:) A full moon in a clear star-filled sky. Driving a car again (miss the 2 min interval trains in HK tho!). Going to weddings every 2nd weekend! Traveling this awesome world!!! I miss areoplane seats. And journalling at airports. Love it.

Well - Beautiful Woman Event is over. What an incredible, Spirit-filled and anointed weekend. What a blessing to have been a part of. To be ministered to, inspired and revolutionaized by powerful couple Ps Chris & Joy Hill from Dallas, Texas was SUCH an amazing priviledge.The venue foyers and hallways were decorated with 1940's styled silk curtains, fringes, pots and vases, stunning wallpapers & floral arrangements, finished off of course by the breathtaking bulb lit double layered stage surrounded by the hugest white curtains I've ever seen. 1940's themed dancers and singers gave their best to God - who was glorified over the 2 days beyond measure.Every second of the event was for Him. Women were changed, empowered and totally set free by the powerful hand of Jesus Christ.Praise you Mighty King for your awesome works and UNFAILING love.Ok...let's get back into planning mode for Planetshakers Conference 2008... :)

So what's news with me? I AM NO LONGER AN INTERN AT PLANETSHAKERS CITY CHURCH!!! AH. An emotional weekend. But AWESOME. 50 of us reminisced back to the start of 2006, diving into this unknown experience with excitement and anticipation. Little did we know what was to come. Wow. This year has been phenomenal. Getting to know myself unbelievably through seeking the Saviour of the world...pretty cool. It's been a tough but unforgettable experience. Breaking through to new levels week after week - the freedom has been incredible. BUT. I will not stop here:) This is just the beginning...and I said this time last year and I will say it again..."this year is gonna be a great year". So if you're reading this, thinking I am a freak because you don't know Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour...might I suggest you "taste and see that He is GOOD". You'll never know until you do:)
So I stood on stage in front of 3000 people last night and graduated. I have a Certificate IV in Ministry and an amazing experience interning for an entire year at the best church in the world. What a privilege :)
Stir it up.

Fresh off the plane from back to back Planetshakers Brisbane Conferences...which followed a phenomenal week at Vodafone Arena, Melbourne. Wow. (check out www.planetshakers.com) Perth is happening as I type and I have heard it's going off. 6,000 teens, young adults and even oldies seeing who can jump the highest in the praise pit (as opposed to mosh pit) - so great. Fanstastic preaching. Powerful worship. Inspirational to the core.
Passion filled preachers proclaimed what they believed, stirring this generation's up and comers to be full of faith and receive all God has for them. And what I love is, Planetshakers Conference confirms once more that Christianity is in no way about "religion". It's about a relationship with the Creator of this Universe - who also happens to be my best friend. It's about understanding why He would die for me and knowing now that He has (and has had since before I was born) an amazing plan and purpose for my life. YAY
Ok that's it for now...scroll down for more Nat stuff:)
