Testimonials for Jee Fong’s Vocal Training

“I never realised how we can easily spoil our Vocal Cords without knowing it until it’s too late. I now know that taking care of our Voice is quite simple if we were taught the proper Vocal & Singing Techniques. Some of the Techniques you shared with us during your Demo Session was quite simple to practice & proved to be effective.

Thank you for sharing and I wish you success in your vocal training workshop.”

The Beautiful Singapore Botanic Gardens

A week ago, Monte and I took a lovely walk at the Singapore Botanic Gardens. We love taking in the lush beautiful greeneries, the fresh air and all things natural. Monte often says that Singapore is so green and beautiful and it is so true.

Burn it Deep

The fire of God burns deep within us to purify and sanctify us. Through the fire of God’s love, He draws us into His inner chambers and pours His love into our hearts; renewing and remaking us continually. His zeal and power are unleashed into our lives as we lay everything before the throne of His grace. His fire consumes us increasingly as we yield to Him in total abandonment and love. His fire burns deep within our souls to keep us going in challenging and tough times. He strengthens and empowers us to persevere through His amazing grace. Lord, burn Your desire deep in our hearts.

A Lifetime is too Short

A lifetime may seem very long at a glance. We take a lifetime to build a home, a career or a business. But for a married couple who is deeply in love with one another, a lifetime is too short.

Some years ago when Monte was overseeing some cell groups in Church of Our Saviour, we were saddened to receive news of the death of a sister-in-Christ. She died of a sickness and she was in her 40s. Her husband was heartbroken. Monte and I were at her wake and funeral. This brother loved his wife dearly. He was at a total loss and disarray at that juncture. He felt helpless.

As I reflect on the incident, what surfaced is the love between this brother and his late wife. The pain of loosing someone so dear to ones heart is unimaginable. Only the Lord can heal and strengthen us in His love. In the dark hours of the soul, He breaks through and soothes our pain and agony.

With each new day, we grow to love and cherish our spouse. God’s love permeates into ours, builds and further strengthens our bond of love.

Consistently Good

God is consistently good. He never falters nor fails. He is fully reliable and dependable. Loving and serving Jesus is our main priority. Being recipients of His abundant grace opens the door for us to live through the glory of His grace.

A couple of months ago, I developed severe cough and sore throat due to some medication I was on. In the meantime, I had ongoing enrichment and vocal training which were drastically affected. It was disturbing as the cough and sore throat went on for several weeks. The doctor I was seeing was trying to ascertain if it was due to a reaction to the medication. Monte and I prayed and believed for the Lord’s healing. To cut the long story short, I have fully recovered.

This experience left me with overflowing gratitude for God is so good. During that time, I was able to honour every training session I have committed myself to. His grace is always sufficient. His resources never run dry. He picks us up from every inconceivable valley, strengthens and empowers us to climb another mountain with Him.
