deep waters, dark nights.....
In the flim The Perfect Storm, a caitain and crew head out for what they hope will be an uneventful fishing expedition. in their quest for a bountiful catch, they motor far past their normal fishing location. There they find great success, but as they turn for home they encounter the horrifying combination of two powerful weather fronts and a hurricane. The crew struggles as they attemp to cut through deep waters, a dark night, pounding waves, and shireking winds. Ultimately, the fierce weather overwhelms them.
As the disciples made their way across the Sea of Galilee to Bethsaida, they too found themselves in a ferocious storm - experiencing turbulent, deep watersand a dark night. They struggled to sail throughpounding waves and shrieking winds. Though they could not see Jesus, Jesus could see them (Mark 6:48). He saw their exhausion, desperation, and even their lack of progress. Not only did He see them, He came to them in an unexpected and powerful way, walking on the water (Mark 6:48-49). When Jesus walked on the water, He gave them a glimpse of the ultimated power of God. Though they couldn't speak, Jesus spoke to them:"Don't be afraid.... Take courage! I am here!" (Mark 6:50). His words and presence gave them courage.
If we're experiencing deep waters and dark nights, remember... When we can't see Jesus, Jesus sees us. He sees our hard work, exhaustion, sorrow, fear, and our lack of progress, and He cares deeply for us. When we can't come to Jesus, Jesus comes to us. In unexpected and powerful ways. His coming is not always to deliver us, but to remind us that He's still in control and will not let us be overwhelmed. When we can't speak to Jesus, Jesus speaks to us. He speaks powerful words of assurance:"I am here...!"
Mark 6:45-51

Floorball Tour de Penang
Touched down at KKIA T2, tired but still in excited mood.... Went through a week, eat floorball, drink floorball, sleep floorball, talk floorball, play floorball, pray floorball (sounds crazy....!)
Went to Penang for a week of floorball touring with Nomads. The schedule is kinda eat, sleep and play.... feeling kinda like a professional full time player. Mind loaded with tones of floorball tactics, rules, strategies, etc. for the whole week... No doubt, learnt a lot from them, no matter in terms of tactic, skills, strategies, etc.... The Penang players really showed us what is floorball about.... i think we gotta start to study what is floorball right from the beginning again.... haha... The level of skills are totally different from us here in Sabah, but soon floorballers in Sabah here will catch up with them...
As a player, my experience in this tour is mainly SUBMISSION and Obey.... as for the match facing the giants (Penang State Team @ Malaysia National Team), Ps Edward predicted we will be giving away about 30 to 40 goals as he knows the head coach so well.... He did give us some tips and training on the defence strategies and running positions. Well, he still kept his prediction after the training session. With the spirit of submission and obey to team captain, we kept the shape of defensive till the end of game and minimized down the score to 10-0 with 12 of us playing against a team in full lines (20 players). As our team captain mentioned, Nomad always surprises him...!!!
Last session with Team Unihoc, which basically players using Unihoc equipments and personally hand picked by Ps Edward. We had lots of fun that night. Running positions, goals, different style and ways of scoring field goals and penalties, goal keeping tips....
Soon SFA will be bringing a team of Sabah State Team to Penang next year....
Btw, Ps Edward was and is the head coach......

Nomad Challenge Trophy 2009
Unleashed played as a line in NFC. A total of 6 passioned players from Unleashed played in this league. Somehow NFC managed to get the bronze medal. We fought till the end as a team, pleased with the performance but not the results. Anyway, it's already a fact. Good platform for young players to gain match experiences.
Good work team...!
Good work team...!

Passionate
Feel pleased when few of my youth players and young adults approached to me...
"I want to play....!"
I've told them, we are not representing the church anymore. We are attaching to Nomad if we play in the Nomad Challenge Trophy 2009. No obligations, they gotta make their own decisions. I've made it clear that parents should know it is not a church activities.
"Yes, I'm sure...!"
Praise LORD....!
The fire haven't die......

When God Wants You To RESTART....!!!
Found some of the answers during the trip to Penang. Visited a friend, pioneer of floorball in Malaysia, and his family. Learnt a lot from them, think to the ways of positive, it might be a turning point or good start to filter and start again a team with a different group of people. Amazingly, my pastor said the same thing, start with the Young Adults.
Ok, then i'll need a starting point and a platform of training ground to get them involved 1 by 1... Eventually, Nomad is willing to provide the platform, God's grace...! and Nomad's mercy.... Unofficially, Unleashed will be attaching to Nomad for some time untill we have enough commited players to start our own training.
God is favouring Unleashed...
