God is Able

When i find a parking space, i will always pray for it. Even when it's actually not something important to even pray for. Sometimes i get a good parking sometimes i will get a further parking but still i'm always happy to even get a parking. Recently i was staying in an inn in Miri and there was no parking space available near nor far from the place i stayed. I kept on praying and circling the area, having faith that God will eventually give me a parking space. I have no idea how long but i would roughly say 1 hour. It was really disappointing because i was really trusting Him 101%. At the time i was almost giving up, i suddenly realise it's not that God doesn't want to bless me, but maybe there is something preventing His blessing from getting to me. So i prayed that all dark powers preventing me from getting His blessing be broken and there as i finished praying, a car went out from a parking space just right infront of the inn i stayed. Feeling amazed and happy.

And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. ~ 2 Corinthians 9:8

It's as if God want to say, He will always want to bless our life as we ask and trusting Him all out. But we need to break and unattached ourselfs to all unGodly things or anything in our life that is preventing His blessings to enter our life. It may not be the "evil spirits" but maybe our job? Bad habits? Friends? Something that is hard to let go? But once let go, you will find His blessings gushing all over you.

He is able to bless us all because He is our beloved God. There is no escaping from His abundant blessings. You cannot run away from Him, He always finds His way back in your heart.

God bless you. ")

Who is God in your life?

Few weeks ago, i had a weekend away to a very meaningful place in my life. A holiday, which i really need. I went to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, just for the weekend (a place where i took my bachelor degree and where my faith grows so much). God is indeed a Great Planner. He scheduled a Leadership Seminar for me. It was two days ( saturday and sunday ) and on sunday night, He arrange for me to go to Upper Room (Young and Adult Working Youth Prayer Group), prayer meeting. (seriously, i didnt planned all of that, i just planned to go to Kota Kinabalu to relax) Haihh. God is awesome.

God really works wonders in my life. I've learn and experienced so much during my weekend away but i'm not going to talk about it in details. During this weekend away, God always reminded me, Who He is in my life. At the Leader Seminar and also the prayer meeting, during praise and worship and the sessions, they will always let you think and declare who God is in your life.

The disciples went and woke Him, saying, "Master, Master, we're going to drown". He got up and rebuked the wind and the ragging waters: the storm subsided, and all was calm. ~ Luke 8:24

My life is a total mess right now. Yup, heavy storm and to the point that i don't really know what to do. I still have my faith, shaken maybe by the storm, and that is when God whispers to me with a question, Who is He in my mess up life right now?

During all those good days, it's so easy to praise God and declare how good He really is but when the storm comes, sometimess i just forgot to let and allow God to be Who He is. I'm in the state of my life that i feel so much pain and hurt. I've never felt this much pain before. Oh yeah! It feels good. No..haha.

The Lord is my Shepherd, i have everything i need. ~ Psalms 23:1

Even with all of that has happened, how can i forgot WHO GOD IS? I can never, and will not let that happen. He is always with me ever since i was born. I can always know His presence. HE NEVER LEAVES ME! HOW CAN YOU SAY HE IS NOT THERE WITH YOU! HE MAY NOT DO ANYTHING THAT YOU EXPECT HIM TO DO, TADAAAAA SHOW HIMSELF INFRONT OF YOU, BUT HE IS THERE! YOU BELIEVE HIM OR NOT, HE IS STILL GOD! AND HE IS STILL THERE! HE NEVER LEAVES YOU!

AND SO TO MY PROBLEMS RIGHT NOW, GOD IS MY SHEPHARD, MY FATHER, YOU BETTER RUN, COZ HE IS COMING FOR YOU! Heeeeeee :p

So Who Is He in my total mess up life right now? HE IS MY STORM CALMER! The One that is always there for me. The One that is so excited whenever i call out to Him.

He showed me a very beautiful rainbow. I've never seen such beautiful rainbow in my life, it was a complete one. I can see where it starts and where it ends. It was so near that i can actually go to where the foot of the rainbow is and there is a whisper in my heart that He wants me to know that He will never let me feel this kind of hurt again. He will make things new again for me.

I have faith in You. It is not strong, but Your Love is. Please provide me with more faith Lord. Bless those who hurt me and those whom i hurt. May it be not according to my will, but Your will be done. Spirit come and never let me go...

Rooted And Built Up in Jesus

When i was still a student, i joined Catholic Youth groups (CSG, Lifefire and Upper Room). Whenever i have difficulties in life, when i need Jesus, these groups really help me alot. They have weekly gatherings which i can go to, to worship God with them. There i have friends who supported me in prayer. I had places to go when i need the Eucharist EVERYDAY. Yes, just to go to the Daily Mass, i would use my campus bus to go to the main gate of UMS and walk outside of my university to the nearest bus stop, to go to Church. Finish attending the daily Mass, i would use bas back, and from outside UMS, i would walk back to my hostel since by that time there won't be any campus bus at service. During weekend i would go to Church and have my confession first before i go attend the service Mass. 

Jesus said to them, "I am the Bread of Life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst." ~ John 6:35

Faith was available everywhere. i felt closer to God day by day. It was easy to maintain my faith there, with all these around, i just need to have my own effort on getting it. It was easy then than now. Life is so much harder now. I've posted about working in Company ABC before. Well, i haven't updated my working life yet, but for your information,  i'm now working in the Health Ministry and i'm posted in a Clinic very far in a rural area (Rural Z), serving the locals there. Since i've arrived here in Rural Z, for the first time in my life, i feel very very far from God. I have never felt so empty and so dark in my life before. God was there but the walls that i built was too thick. 

With my faith below negative Zero, i felt so helpless. Life was hard. I'm already used to the life where God always help and guide me in all things. Of course this was what i've asked, to work far from my hometown, to serve the people of God using the gifts which God has given me. But i never thought that it was this hard. Challenges came, yeah, it wasn't easy to handle. I know God was watching me all the time, but it seemed very hard to reach Him. I'm not a theologian, so i can't explain it. What i know is that, my sins and lack of faith has made it very hard to reach my God, eventhough He was near.

I know, i can't live without Him. Now i really-really know that. His love is all that i need. I need Him to give me life, to guide me along this path which i'm in. Again for the very first time, back to square one, struggling to break the walls which i built myself. I know and i believe He will be with me until the end of time. Yesterday He said in this verse to me, "Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage, wait for the Lord! ~ Psalms 27:14. Yes i will and i will not let myself fall deeper. He is My God! I claim Love and Faith In Jesus Name! 

"So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him, rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness." ~ Colossians 2:6-7

If you have catholic groups, be active! Always give all out to Him! Attend Weekly Mass. Go to Daily Mass if you can. All these can really help you stay closer to God besides your own private time with God! Do whatever it takes to be closer with Him. When we love some someone, we would want that person to love us back. It goes the same with God, He really wants us to love Him back. Well, He died for us. That's how much He would go to to get our love back. Today is Valentine's Day, and i would like to wish Daddy God, happy Valentine's Day because He is my no. 1 lover! 

God bless you. :)

Jesus It is You

I love God, He made me feel that i'm special. He never leaves me eventhough i try to rebel against Him. When I fall and run away from Him, He waits for me faithfully. He really is my true best friend. 

No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. ~ Joshua 1:5

I really love You God. Thank You for loving me as i am. Thank You for never leaving me. You are always there for me when i need You. When no one comes to my aid/help, You, You, You, You, YOU ARE THERE. You always wait for me to call out Your Name. You are always there for me. ALWAYS. I love You God. I really do. I Love You. And i'm sorry for i don't love You perfectly. I miss You. I love You. I want You! God, thank you for the presence, the blessings which you always give me. Thank you for making me worthy to talk to You, to be with You. 

Mighty Saviour, i surrender all things, things which i am not capable to handle, i leave and surrender it to You. Take care of me. I know You are watching over me all the time. I know it! How can You hide Your presence God, when i can see You in all things. Your light is too bright to be hidden. Mighty God, guide me, guide me, guide me...Sometimes I really feel that i'm stupid because i can't handle things which other people can. I always need You. I always need You to help, to guide me. I can't do these things without Your help or Your strength. 

Jesus It Is You ~ by True Worshippers (Favor Album)

Father, it is You! It is You...It Is You Jesus who is always there for me. Mighty Lord. Saviour. Thank You. 

Dengan Kuasa Roh Kudus Mu, biarlah aku rendah di mata dunia, tetapi dekat di hatiMu. Dalam Nama Yesus Kristus, Tuhanku, Allahku....I love You.

In The Wilderness With The Lord

Selepas 10 tahun, ehh...1 tahun lebih bekerja, saya kian masuk lebih mendalam dalam dunia yang penuh misteri ini. (Teruk betul BM ku ni...hahahaha...).

My life now, how can i describe it. It's just normal. I go to work, go back home. At home i watch movies and anime in my laptop. Sometimes going out with friend. Since i dont have any commitment so far, i feel like my life is pointless, lifeless. Sometimes i ask myself, why is it that i feel alone and lifeless eventhough i have a Big God up there. Another mystery in my life yet to be revealed.

I'm (once again) in the point of my life where i dont know what to do or what i want. Being retarded for awhile...hehe...A thought came up to me that maybe its time for me to discern on whatever God wants me to do in life and yea, it's actually a good time for me to serve Him alone, as a Lone Ranger! I have plenty of quiet time now. 

One thing i know for sure, that He already plan something for me and He is directing my life to the path He has chosen. Yes, i believe in that. Eventhough i come to the point of life where i may not see His clear plans, i will not give up. This is my journey in the desert. Wandering for 40 years, that's a long long time (ehhhhh, what am i talking about here...haha..). Though i'm seeing desert everyday, i know for sure that one day if i don't give up, i will arrive at the place where God has promised to me. Yes, He will provide me with everything i need like syampu, shaver, icecream and all the food i can eat. haha.

For forty years You sustained them in the wilderness; they lacked nothing, their clothes did not wear out nor did their feet become swollen. ~ Nehemiah 9:21 

Let this song express my feelings right now.

Hatiku Percaya ~ Edward Chen

See ya'll and God bless.

My Godly Given Job

I would like to share my story of how God gave me a job as a Nutritionist in ABC Company (ohh, that is not the real name of the company, have to censor it, just incase...hehe). He is indeed an amazing God. My story may not be the same as others as the way God works in each one of us is very unique in His own way, yet let me boast about His amazing kindness to me.

Let me bring you back to 2011, it was in the middle of June where i had finished my Final Year Project (FYP) as a Final Year Student of Food Science and Nutrition. I finally manage to finish my 4 years study and i was back in my hometown, Kuching. I was relieved actually because i did have some difficulties completing my FYP but by God's Grace and Mighty Help, i was able to go through with it ( i seriously mean it, no kidding man, wonders did happened, fuhhh. Thank God its over.)

I was not planning on getting any long "holidays" for myself after that 4 great and amazing years of study. So 1 week after i returned to Kuching, i finally manage to get myself a temporary job as a cashier in Ngiukee Departmental Store with my friend Jessie whom i believe is a God sent friend. I was really happy working there and had no worries about my future job, because deep down in my heart i know God has already plan something great for me. So due to that, i enjoyed myself in Ngiukee without any worries of the future.

For I know the plans I have for you, declares The Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future ~ Jeremiah 29:11

Two months (plus plus) had past and i havn't applied for any jobs related to my Degree. I was so confident in my heart that God has already "reserved" a good job for me. However one night, when i was having dinner with friends, Jessie and Dannison, at an "open air" hawker stalls (101 food court), i met my coursemate, Sharon. Had a good conversation with her and surprise to know that she got a job as a Nutritionist in small company. That information really had my heart sank deep down the deepest ocean. It made me started to worry about my future carrier. I wasn't planning on staying in Ngiukee as a cashier for a long time yet i'm not doing anything to get a better job. On my way driving back home, i was litterally shouting in my car, calling Jesus! I was asking help from Him. I can't help it, with this little faith that i have, i was worrying so much. My soul was crying out! ( ohh this part, very hard to explain.)

Starting from that night onwards, i keep on talking to God about my future carrier. Almost every night my heart shouts out His Name, "JESUS". I started to apply for jobs on the internet and I managed to get an interview for Nutritionist post in Watsons. The interview was at Miri, so i used bus and the travel took 14 hours of journey. I was all alone, and this was my first job interview. Was a bit nervous but i know God was with me. Reaching there, i had the opportunity to had lunch with my auntie at her house. She lived in a small cute house. She even prayed and assured that God will help me. Another awesome thing happened is that i saw a Kenyalang, a very rare bird at the back of my auntie's house (I say that because you can only find that at museums as it is very very rare and about to extinct). Had the interview with the Retail Manager, and right at that moment, i know that i won't get the job. He offered me the Store Manger position instead but i declined (knowing for sure that it is not for me). I reflected a lot during the journey, learned and experience so much in those two days journey. It was as if God purposely gave me the experience as a personal "retreat" for me.

I finally decided to quit my job as a cashier in Ngiukee because i felt that it's going to be very hard for me to stay there and trying to find a new job at the same time. So i stayed at home, eat and sleep :) . One day, when i was talking to God, i remembered about the story of my friend in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Anne, how she got her current job. She listed down her job criteria that she wants and ask for it in details from God. Guess what. She really get the job that she wanted based on the criteria that she asked for.  At that moment after i remembered this, i ask God in details about the job that i wanted.

The criteria that i asked for:-

1. Working in Kuching (my hometown)

2. As a nutritionist (using my degree)

3. A degree Salary 

That was it. Somehow when i prayed this, i had a confident feeling, but i don't know how to describe it. As usual after i prayed this, there was no angel singing, no heavenly light, nor an earthquake happened. :) 1 or 2 days after i prayed this, i received a call from ABC Company calling me for an interview. I was really surprise at this! I don't even know that company. I even thought it was from Nestle.

And we are confident that He hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases Him. And since we know He hears us when we make our request, we also know that He will give us what we ask for. ~ 1 John 5:14

The interview went well and i have been working in this Company for 1 year (plus plus) since 1st September 2011 as a Nutritionist. I was really blessed with this job and i even started working here before i graduated and received my Degree Certificate. This job was given to me by God and He gave it knowing that this is the best for me at the moment. I don't even deserved this job but He made it possible. He is Awesome and Great! Powerful and Mighty! My Alpha and Omega! My Hope and Savior.

This was what God had done to me. Many have asked for a job from God and yet haven't got one, which is true. God works in a mysterious way that we humans can't fully understand. One things for sure, we must be brave enough to let His Spirit guide us on a quest which He has specially planned for each and everyone of us. God wants us to be happy. That is true, He really wants us to be happy but bear in mind. The real Happiness that He wants to give is The Everlasting Happiness that we cannot find here on Earth but only through Him, with Him and in Him who reigns forever. Amen.

Renew My Strength

These past few weeks has been very awesome. Full of surprises! Last 2 week, a friend of mine from Sabah (The land below the wind), Val, contacted me, telling me that she had received a call from a company in Kuching for an interview. That was on friday, 7th September. She came on the following week, on Wednesday, 12 September. Without any plans, she just walk by faith to Kuching, or better to say, fly by faith to Kuching using Airasia plane! hahaha.

For we walk by faith and not by sight. ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7

Ya, Who can know, that Jesus was only using this reason as an excuse for her to come to Kuching for His awesome plan! Ya indeed. Not only i met her a very close friend of mine who walk with me in faith during my study last time, but another friend of the two of us, Pat, who is working in Miri, were having a job training in Kuching! (what a good excuse to bring her also to Kuching) Is this a coincidence? The three of us were friends when we were in UMS and we went for the same catholic group, Lifefire! For your information, its been 1 year since we left UMS and graduated. Since then, we all have our own troubles and experience, met together in one place to share and just have a counselling session with God.

The Spirit of God just fills the place with good things. Just to let you know that my spirit were dry. I need my cups to be filled. God just knows the right time to fill my cup. Not only mine, but my friends, Pat and Val. Too much story within these two weeks. Maybe ill write another post about one of it. Well, maybe when im not lazy. hehe...

" but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ." ~ Isaiah 40:31 

What i want to say here is that, nothing is imposible for HIM! He brought me friends from Sabah, and Miri just to fill my cup and encourage and give me strength to raise up and once again, bring praises to HIM who gives abundantly. Jesus loves us, Pat, Val, me and you whoever you are...hahahaha...Nothing is imposible for Him. Have hope in Him! Wait patiently! For His help comes at the right and perfect time!

He is your Way, your Truth and your Life! Mine too...

God Loves Simple Prayers

And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. ~ Matthew 6:7

Part 1

On 26th May 2012, afternoon at 12pm, I was looking for a place to park my car in the Boelevard Shopping Mall carpark. However, the place was full, well its Saturday, what do you expect. I just keep on driving, hoping to get a parking space. It lasted for half an hour!!! (ya, i know i'm stubburn guy). Suddenly...jeng...jeng...jeng...i felt so lazy to wait anymore and so i prayed, "God please give me a place to park and a good one. Amen". 

Tadaaaa!!! To my amazement (actually surprise is a better word) just as i finish saying that, 2 meters infront was a car going out and it was opposite the escalator entrance to the mall. Wow..right? Well, its God that we're talking about here. It's a small matter to Him. While praising God, that was the time that these words came out, "God who created Heaven and Earth knows our needs and will provide, but sometimes He's just waiting for us to ask."

Ya, He never fails to make me amazed. He is just full of surprises. ") End of Part 1.

.........................................................................................................................

Part 2

On the 25th May 2012, around 10.30am, i was sending my friend Chil to CIMB bank in Padungan. I dropped her off in front of the bank and i went on to look for a parking space. The parking space in front of the bank seems to be fully parked. There is a car in front of me (car A) and he was lucky (i'll just assume the driver was a he, or maybe it was doraemon or Goku who drive it, well, sailormoon also can) anyway, ya he was lucky because a lady just came out from the bank and went to her car B which is infront of the car A. So lucky of him. He straight away turn on his car signal light which is a sign saying, "This parking space is mine! Muahahaha!!!". 

Oh Wow! beautiful drawing! 

It was very hard to find a parking space over there (well, that was what i thought until later on when i went back i saw lotttsss of parking space at the back, alright not funny). There was no more chance that ill get a parking space infront of the bank. Few minutes have pass yet Car B is still not moving, neither was the car engine started. Furious maybe, Car A hons his car, yet nothing happens. I dont really bother about them, yet i remembered the story of Part 1 above and so i prayed the same prayer. At first i don't feel like asking God's help. It was very a small matter. Why should i trouble Him? He has many other important things to do right. Yet He has taught me to rely on Him even to the smallest thing. 

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding ~ Proverbs 3:5

Just as i finish praying that, the car infront of me which is Car A, obviously cannot wait any longer, drove his car to look for other parking space. As soon as Car A drove away, 1 second after that Car B reverse her car and ready to go home! I was shocked and happy at the same time. wohooo! My turn to turn on my car signal light indicating ("This parking space is mine!  Muahahaha!!!") I mean, amazing isn't it our GOD! He reserves that parking space for me!! I feel so touched! Indeed eventhough it was a small favour to ask, He still cares. Even in the smallest thing...ask... Rely on Him not only when your problems are big, but when it is small, tell Him about it. Remember Him at all times, Big or Small. Everything that concers you, matters to Him, because He loves you, me, everyone!

For the LORD is good and His Love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations. ~ Psalms 100:5

I'm Back!!!

Wow! Its been a year plus plusss since my last post. I never thought i would continue writing again in my blog. (Is this considered as "writing" or shud i say "typing"). Hehehe. Well, let me tell you a short story on how i was "REVIVED" to bloging again.

On a wonderful day, a beautiful friend of mine from Sabah, Debbie Rosalind, sms/text me, saying that she's been sharing something in her blog (Oh ya, you should read her blog. fuhhh, basically what i can say is that she writes beautiful love stories!) and fushhhh, suddenly she said i was on her mind. Ya, you can say that im a little bit handsome, maybe that's why she remembered me. So ya, you know what i mean. Hahaha..I'm just kidding, we're friends ok. Then she ask me to read her sharing. It was all God's plan. 

This was found on her blog sharing, it really strikes me to the heart.

I was reading her story, the one that she ask me to read and WOW! I felt somehow regenerated! To know how a person personally have the heart to share His Love, to be His Love amazes me. Her story touches me. I felt like i want to write again, to let atleast one person out there know that there is a God and He loves us. Ya, how wonderful is that, that God just need something simple to resurrect my blog. A friend and her love story.

I want to glorify Him in my blog! Let His Name be praise FOREVER!!!

Praying Together As A Family (CSG)

It has been a while since i write in my blog. A lot of things had happened during these long semester since january. This time i would like to write to my beloved Catholic Student Group (CSG). We are a group of Jesus' Fans who are in love with Him. As time goes, we grow in faith and love with each other. Every friday we would have a gathering and we have Praise and Worship, bible sharing and fellowship. Every night, we would gather together to pray the rosary. EVERY NIGHT! Wonderful isn't it. I've tagged them through facebook. So to the CSGian, this is my love letter to you all :-

Be joyful always, pray at all times, be thankful in all circumstances. This is what God wants from you in your life in union with Christ Jesus. ~ 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

“If they could pray together, they would come to know each other, and by knowing each other they will love each other, and if they start loving each other they will share with each other with the joy of love. PRAYER IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIFT OF GOD. It will always bring us together. The joy of loving comes from the joy of praying.” ~ Mother Teresa

Jesus was the one who called us to pray. He was the one who planned the Rosary everyday. He was the one who prepared the small “chapel” for us to pray. He was the one who called us to come every night. Why? Because He wants us to love one another just as He has loved us and by loving each other, we are loving Him back. It was never been plan by anyone that we would have this Special Rosary every night. For it to happen, it must be God! I believe if there is a beautiful unplanned plan happened, it is His awesome plan. His planed usually will surprise us wonderfully, for only He knows this plan, and He alone knows what’s best for us.

See that picture above? They are hungry children, so are we. We are a group of people who are hungry for love. Some of us never feel being accepted by people around us. Some feel they are not important even when they are with their friends and when they say something, it was never been heard or been taken seriously. Some of us feel lonely without real friends, some feel rejected. Some feel lost in their homes with their broken families, because of their dads, moms, brothers and even sisters. Some just have problems to love other people or even to be loved just because of their past experience with love in their family and with people. Some struggle with the outside world which are very cruel, draining their energy and love, without anyone know that they do this for God and for God alone. Jesus love us so much that He gathered all of us who has problems with love to find love among us. Love that comes only from Him and by this we feel loved and accepted, we feel we are important, we feel we are a real friend to someone. If we want to cry, atleast know that we have a shoulder to cry on.

We are not perfect. So if we think something bad about someone among us in CSG, let us not bring this thoughts further. When we start to think bad about someone, we will start to ignore or not wanting to even talk him/her. If this is prolong(dipanjangkan), Hate will start to come and grow in our hearts. Never let this happened! Remember that The Spirit of God is gentle and in Him, you are in control! “For The Spirit that God has given us does not make us timid; instead, his Spirit fills us with power, love, and self-control.” ~ 2 Timothy 1:7

 

Don’t think too highly of yourself more highly than you should. Instead, be modest in your thinking and judge yourself according to the amount of faith that God has given you. ~ Romans 12:3

Be humble always. Though if your knowledge of the bible is so good than others or you think that you know more, or maybe have more gifts, never let this sow the seed of pride in you. You all will become seniors, and being a super duper senior myself (4^th year bah kan), there will be thoughts inside of your head saying that you have experience more, and of course know better, however this knowledge is to be shared and to be used to guide each other so that we will walk together and NO ONE, will be left behind. Let us walk together in faith. So far it has been my joy to walk in faith with you all. Only God knows how happy and excited I am when you start talking about Him and sharing about His love. It is my Joy that each and everyone of you grow in faith TOGETHER. I am even more happy when your life starts to change, that you start to love rather than wanting to be loved. For loving others is the one true act of loving God Himself.

I love you all, and honestly, I never think I would. Then surely it must be His love that sparks this love to all of you. God has given me a lot of experience in CSG and that experience leads to one important thing, which is LOVE. I will miss you all. But this is not our final farewell. We will see each other in future again (maybe), who knows. Just hope that I will not be asked to extend (fuhhh…palis..paliss…haha..).

~ Jadilah Pejuang Terang Kepada Dunia ~

Kamu adalah garam dunia. Jika garam itu menjadi tawar, dengan apakah ia diasinkan? Tidak ada lagi gunanya selain dibuang dan diinjak orang. Kamu adalah terang dunia. Kota yang terletak di atas gunung tidak mungkin tersembunyi. Lagipula orang tidak menyalakan pelita lalu meletakkannya di bawah gantang, melainkan di atas kaki dian sehingga menerangi semua orang di dalam rumah itu. Demikianlah hendaknya terangmu bercahaya di depan orang, supaya mereka melihat perbuatanmu yang baik dan memuliakan Bapamu yang di sorga. (Matius 5:13-16)

Let us fight and not just sit. Fighting to save people to give them joy and love. Giving our "all out" to love even if it takes our strength. Our lights of energy might go red, but not our desire for God. Let us be His fighters, let us be His light.

Life is Short

2010 ends today...2011 starts tomorrow...the world ends in 2012 (errrrr...???)

Life is getting shorter n shorter, no time to waste. Some people ask me why do i always do crazy things, well it is because our life is short and we don’t know how short it can be.

I am young and I am surrounded with young friends. We enjoyed ourselves by having fun and going out together but 1 thing that we try not to forget, which is to bring God out with us also. As a youth, i like fun things, we like fun things. In gatherings, we prefer the energetic type of worship by shouting and jumping, well basically because it’s fun at our age and we like it, it gives us the mood/feeling to worship. I don't really know about the other’s opinion about why they do this in worship, but as for me, I jump for God, I dance for God and I shout for God. This is my performance to my ONLY Audience, Jesus.

 Praise and Worship Sessions during LifeFire Camp

Ecclesiastes 12:1 - Don't let the excitement of youth cause you to forget your Creator. Honor Him in your youth before you grow old and say "Life is not pleasant anymore."

I try to get a life, youth life that I can experience 1^st hand the meaning of worshipping God in action and not only in Gatherings through Praise & Worship and Sharing sessions. By encountering real life situations, instead of just understanding God through testimonies of other people, I can experience God myself. From time to time as I do this, God becomes more and more alive in me. Different people have different ways but this is (at this time) my way of getting to be closer to God.

It is just too long for me to tell 1 by 1 on what have I encountered during the “Full Package Holiday Plan”, but to summaries it, God had all this plan for me to feel a youth life + God. It is possible for young people to enjoy their youths without excluding God in it.

Worship God when you are still able to raise up your hands.

An old person don't run often anymore because they r weak and they use stick to support them to walk.

A dying person can only lie on the bed...

A singer who died in an accident won't be able to sing in a concert the next day...

William shakespere says that life is pointless by saying, "Out out brief candle, LIFE is like a walking shadow".

The wise King Solomon makes it more clearer that LIFE is pointless without God in your life. (Ecclesiastes)

Jesus makes it perfect by saying, "I am The Way, The Truth and The LIFE" and "Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal LIFE, and I will raise him up at the last day."(Gospel).

Use your youthful years of Life wisely. Use it to glorify our Lord. At the same time open your eyes to see the beautiful blessings which He had granted us and don’t forget to enjoy it (enjoy doesn't mean it must be fun and happy only, i enjoyed my full package holiday plan eventhough it contains "sad", "traumatic" and "scary" in it)

We are given another year. Use it to love and not to hate. Happy New Year to all.

Peace no war. ^^)v
