Today, thank God for God, Church and everything today.
Managed to do some activities with the kids, and found out that, they have strong fighting spirit, great creativity and defending themselves. Well, at the end of the day, they are still able to memorise this verse,
Genesis 15:1b
Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.”

What did they built?
A newspaper tower, without any stapler and anything that sticks things together. It was indeed an great sight to see how the kids work together, happily, and I guess it's I am so happy to burn a hole in my pocket to get them some things. :)
While playing with them, I had a feeling of being father to them, and enjoy what a father had felt while playing with them. It's a sense of fulfillment, and it's really lots, though it's little. It makes life a bit more better. :)
I thank God for today's worship.
Yours is the Kingdom, Always and forever, Emmanuel and Holy Holy is the Lord.
First is Reassurance, and then telling me He will be coming soon. It is such a great peace within my heart, though it's not nice for me to say this, still I slept most of the time in service. A great peace and comfort is in my heart. Sweet and relaxing.
Still thank God, because it's a revelation for me today. He woke me up in times, like An example of my excellency, and a minister in the marketplace, and another thing is, overtime worker(slogger).
First two sounds alright, but am I really a slogger?

Endless work, and insufficient of sleep, thanks to be God, that I am still awake now, though tired. Rather than saying tired, which is only my eyes, I felt refreshed in spirit, because of the service. :) Really thank God, because that builds me up.

I felt quite frustrated when I thought about how my friend sent me a last minute work, while I got so much things and wanted to grumble so much, still thank God because that makes me see my character, and areas that I need to improve. Oh well oh well.
Lots of frustration because work should be passed me yesterday, but it's passed to me on sunday, and expect me to complete as there's a presentation the next day.
I can only say, all things are possible, suddenly all things pop out, like a lesson for me to learn.
And towards my fatigue, I got a choice, is either I continued to think of fatigue and just say this, " the Lord has refreshed me." And of course I will choose the latter one. So yup. Thank God.

Such confidence as this is ours through Christ before God. 5Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God.
2 Corinthians 3: 4b to 5.

Let us go back to God. I maybe good at this, I maybe good at that, but still, it's the Lord who has done it through in me. Because I may have watered the plant, but without Him, it has never started growing. This competence is not from me, but from Christ and the people that He has used to guide me along. :)

Just commit everything onto Your Hands, O Lord.
Glory to God. :)
Praise and thank God.

Family, I seems to be struggling to be with all of them, and realised how Dad feels, helpless but on the other hand, hopes, like today's meeting, where none, except Annabel came.
Frustration there is certainly.

Struggles, and pains in the family, makes joy something that I really treasure more and more. Well, maybe pain is something that makes us feels alive. Well, like now.
While I am writing my devotions, my younger sister is complaining to me, how come her boyfriend is not saying encouraging things to her. Well, on my side, most probably she doesn't know that her boyfriend is trying his best to provide her the ebst way in studies, maybe a bit too practical but I do see the heart of his boyfriend, always wanting the best for the gal he loves. :)
Well, she was crying after I explained to her. On the other hand, I will do the same if I am the guy. Well, my gal didn't tell me what she wants though I need to be sensitive.

It, more or less, hurts me, but I believe, she has to work it out something, especially times when she feels moody, like just a moment.
The joy of the family gathering together is important, and I am committed to the family, not letting it break by anyone, otherwise, I will target that person to practise my tongue skills. Like what Dad has always said, never let gossips spreads in the family, even though they are indeed what they are. Rather, pray hard, and do you need to do as a brother, as a christian. Best, help to correct her, because if you did use a serious tone, sure he will listen, because after all, we are still siblins.

A family is like music, a band. One musical instrument, doesnt make a great difference. One musical instrument sounds lonely. It can make difference but it still face its physical limits. It will be different if they are together.
A group of instruments makes life. A group of instruments doesn't only enhance the music, it also enhance any individual instrument, just by working it out. It's like a family.
On the other hand, it must always be harmonised, so make things smooth, and makes music, worth listening. :)

As I was looking for something to teach the kids tomorrow, the chapter of "Tent of meeting" comes to me. God is using the tent to talk to me eventually every sunday. The kids, and of course there are something for me to repent. REally, thank God for this time. It certainly enlightening what to teach them for tomorrow. :)
The Tent of meeting refers to lots of thing, like Fear of the Lord and Moses's holy and righteousness. Every sunday I realised I am talking to God, whether is in Gkids or during service, really thanks God.

14But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. 2 Corinthians 14.
I have always ask myself this question, have I worked on my salvation to see the Glory of Christ?
15Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. 16But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 17Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect[a] the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
Feel the freedom that He has given to you, because there is true freedom. The Tent of Meeting Him is always everywhere we are going. That salvation that I have been working and running after, has given me the freedom in this world by Him, as we're working to be like Him, let this Tent of Meeting brought into the place of my home and those who are around me. :)

There is power in His Name!
After all, all the frustrations and struggles is worth it. :)

Thank God and PRaise God. :)

The Lord has prepared me the past few days, and prepared me for today.
It's like within my heart there are some frustration. These are all actually rejections.
I was actually not chosen into a group and, yup I didnt know. So I went around and asked, and a group accepted me, after the teacher asked. Still, thank God for it, because it helps me to build relationship with others.

Yeah, I do feel sad when I heard such a response from my classmates, especially there's one who asked my friends not to join them. I need to repent, because I did said that she is petty. Did I offend her? Maybe I did. And I said sorry. But I guess she is out to make my days worse. Still, I want to thank God for her. It breaks my heart, but it builds me on the other hand.

One thing is, even though some of them may not like me, but I still must maintain a positive attitude and I believe God for placing where I am. And all of my cares, I will just make it a point that I commit it onto the Lord, because I know, if I carried it along, seriously I will get a mental breakdown sooner or later. My heart will start to harden, and I choose not to let that happened.

Every door that slammed onto my face, I will offer up in prayers. :)

It's easy to do what they do to me. But I will not do what they do to me. :)
I can't take Christ to compare with me, but I can used Him to encourage me. :)
Because I am His son! :D

7Now if the ministry that brought death, which was engraved in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the Israelites could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of its glory, fading though it was, 8will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious? 9If the ministry that condemns men is glorious, how much more glorious is the ministry that brings righteousness! 10For what was glorious has no glory now in comparison with the surpassing glory. 11And if what was fading away came with glory, how much greater is the glory of that which lasts!
2 Corinthians 3:7 to 11

The ministry that bring out the righteous from His Laws.
How was that supposed that to happen?
For each of us is a ministry by itself. So what can we do to bring out the ministry to bring the everlasting glory?:
It started from us, when we guarded ourselves from defouling Jesus's Commands. Then from there, the righteous shall shine, but how? Guarding our words, our actions, especially gossiping about others, and thus everlasting glory will come.
I am trying my best, My Lord. :)
“Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.”- Psalm 27:14

For the Glory of the Lord, Amen
Praise Him and Thank You Lord. :)

Been through quite a long day, thank God for one song that perks me up through out the day.
He Never Sleeps, by Don Moen

REally thank God, because He blessed me with His Spirit, and at night, well, He even blessed me to do things smoothly. I didn't do much mistakes today, I had done 1 or 2 mistakes, but really by God's Grace.
The worst thing is, I didn't make an order for my customers and he had been waited so long. Well, luckily he didn't complain and my manager didn't know too. So I was pretty worried, as it will affect my performance. However, on the way home, something changed my thoughts.

Yours is the Kingdom.
Everything I am doing, is for Him, and in fact a training for me. So whatever comes I will take it as a learning journey and I did repent for my mistakes. Will I turn into a Jesus Freak?
Maybe...? Who knows? But thank God, really got a lot of times it is indeed by the grace of God. Like the number of customers today, I was like, "God, allow there to have more customers today."
So ya, indeed, around half an hour later, a rush of crowds came in, until 9:30pm the crowd cease, and only left a few. At least today's sales is better than yesterday, but all and all, it's really by God's Grace.
Thank God also, learnt quite a lot of new things. :)
Indeed, He is an Awesome God. :)

8None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9However, as it is written:
"No eye has seen,
no ear has heard,
no mind has conceived
what God has prepared for those who love him"[b]— 10but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit.
The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
1 Corinthians 2: 8 to 10.

Are you in touch with God? :)

“The LORD confides in those who fear him; he makes his covenant known to them. My eyes are ever on the LORD, for only he will release my feet from the snare.”- Psalm 25:14-15

Though life may be busy, like me (8am to 12mn), dun worry, I know you did feared Him that He will to anything to you, but it's okay. Fear Him, and He will tell you how much He love you, through your little fear you have in Him. :)

What a great day!
Praise GOd. :)

Today, may seems tob e a bad start of the day. Well, I woke up around 7:30am, and reached school around 9:30am, and yeah, I missed one of my class. But thank God, at least, I know what to do for next.

Thank God for tonight's work, and even today.
Tonight's work, there seems to be quite a lot of mistakes, and I made 2 mistakes.
One thing is, it's not about what mistake that I had made, but taking the ownership of where I am. It's more than anything that I have. That section of area is given to me, others may think it's not that "I done", but I realised that, hey I have the responsibility about what is place on my hands.
Like what God has put into my mouth, I didn't take up the responsibility because I am at fault while dealing with customers, but rather, I take up the responsibility because, that place belongs to me. :)

That is what God put into my mouth indeed. Why did I say so?
12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say." Exodus 4:12
It happens when I was trying to work out something for Gkids.
I saw that sentence was very affirming, especially tonight.
Indeed He is the Lord of Ages.

“May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.”- Psalm 19:14

Thank God, though it's a short while with Him.
Praise God. :)

It may seems to be a bad day, but guess the laughters with my colleagues and jokes from TV enought for me.:)

Thank and Praise God, because He has taught me lots.

Serving Gkids yesterday, and listening to their voices as they worshipped, was indeed an blessings for me. That's something to push me on towards Gkids, wanting to serve God more than anything.
Their voices, God wants it.

As the sermons speaks about Law and Grace, I began to see God's grace upon me when I was younger, like 9 to 10 years old. A young child after sunday school, joined the assembly with the adults and run towards the altar. Blessed by a pastor and left like a kid.
How would an adult see it?

A child who is running towards Christ, has more qualitfications than anyone who is around or even after my age to see Him. They didnt do anything much wrong, and they didnt do anything much either.

It also brought me back to the time, when I was actually just kneeling at the steps, waiting for pastor to touch my forehead. The feeling of whole body goosebump was not good, but the touch within my heart is good, like a sense of relief, and that's God. There's a lot of times that pastor blessed me, and touched my head. But how many times that God wanted to tell us, "Son, I just want you to know Me."

So near, yet so far. That's the feeling.
I just wanna thank God so much, with the bottom of my heart, and yup, love God, Dad, Mum and all my siblings, and all around me, lots! :)
Thank God for His Grace. :)

5If anyone has caused grief, he has not so much grieved me as he has grieved all of you, to some extent—not to put it too severely. 6The punishment inflicted on him by the majority is sufficient for him. 7Now instead, you ought to forgive and comfort him, so that he will not be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow. 8I urge you, therefore, to reaffirm your love for him. 9The reason I wrote you was to see if you would stand the test and be obedient in everything. 10If you forgive anyone, I also forgive him. And what I have forgiven—if there was anything to forgive—I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, 11in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
2 Corinthians 2:5 to 11.
As the Devil tries to deceive me what is forgiveness, I begin to look for what is true Grace and Mercy from Christ.
The true mercy of Christ is, you may have failed, or done something wrong. But again, you will be given the chance to do thing what you want to, as much as you have repented and said "sorry".
The one who gives forgiveness, may have stripped someone who is in position, but on the other hand, that doesnt mean we dun care about that person. That is a matter that I am dealing within my heart. Whether did that person did this or that, when we come to that person, we must handle each matter individually.

“How great you are, O Sovereign LORD! There is no one like you, and there is no God but you, as we have heard with our own ears.”- 2 Samuel 7:22

No matter what we do, and every matter is an thing, but every human is a being.
It is different from a thing. :)

Thank God for everything, and forever. :)

Well, I thank God for today's sermon.
It shows me what should I be doing, especially towards one of my brothers.
I asked my dad, and I asked my brother's dad. At the end of the day, I realised that, I should have listen to what my uncle has said, because somehow my uncle, somehow know my brother better.

As today's sermons spoke about Grace and Law, I do realised that it's because most of the time, we cannot make it up when we tried, that's when Grace came in.

Law gives sin death, and Grace makes the Spirit alive.

Towards some things in Christ, I realised there are some parts of life, especially in Him, there are something that we must hold firm and it will come to a point where we are tested, in faith and willingness to change.

I just realised that, what that I had written for yesterday devotions was supposed to be something that the Lord has prepared for me.
So today, I was thinking my thoughts and my actions for the event and the committee.
Wanted to do lots of things, but I came to a conclusion.
What humans think I dunno.
What God think I also dunno.

So just follow the Spirit lo. :)

Law cannot be replaced by Grace.
As I went for altar call today, I just want to be touched by Lord, and He did.

Thank God and told me somethings in life.
Need to repent that didnt focus much on while writing. :)

But still thank God for today. :)

“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”- Romans 12:2

I will commit him onto Your hands, O Lord.

I had confidence in all of you, that you would all share my joy. 4For I wrote you out of great distress and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to grieve you but to let you know the depth of my love for you. 2 Corinthians 2:3b to 4.

Whether the next step I do, is it a mistake or anything, I will give thanks to God, because all that I do, I trust in Him. :)
Just make me assuredly yours.

Thank God for everything. :)

Today, well thank God for lots of things, and I was led by God and thank God in all things.
I didn't really like the start of the day, that is like waking up around 8am, to help my mum, till 11am. Thank God, I just asked God to change my mindset and true, I was trying all myself to change my mindset, God sees it and yeah, I was like making myself happy throughout there.

So God comes during my break during my work and ministered to me. Scrolling down my phone just to listen to a worship song softly, and saw this, "Perfect Day" by Planetshakers.

Looking back over my life
I can see some changes
That You alone have brought

Everything became so clear
At the moment
That You came in my life

It was as if I'd seen for the first time
And suddenly I felt like I could breathe

What a perfect day
What a perfect day
What a perfect day when You came into my life

While listening to it, I was reflecting upon my day, especially that start of my day and felt quite bad after I left my mum and my thoughts. Well, everything may seems to be bad to me, but after all, God planned these days, and yeah I just thanked God, filled with joy that God has planned these days for me, you know, it's an honour leh! hees.

Working at night, welcoming the one of the female part timers, who went through the training with me at the same time, and ya, I was being asked to this question by my supervisor, "does she has the chance to become your girlfriend?" and "yeah", that is what I answered. She is a non-christian and has a boyfriend, a high chance there is a possibility because all things are possible.

But as I talked it out, I also realised one thing, that is, God is also able to help me out. Eh, I got the best thing, or maybe, supernatural, to help me, and why not? I admit I am a human, and I am weak, that makes God even more want to help me, hees. :)

We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. 9Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. 10He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, 11as you help us by your prayers. 2 Corinthians 1: 9 to 11.

Wasn't the day in your life is just simply perfect, asyou know it's Him who planned it and depend on Him, as it may not be perfect the way you seems to be? :)
It doesnt take 7 to show it, but Him to show us. :)

My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him.”- Psalm 62:1

Well thank God for allowing me to work in Waraku, because I have learnt one thing, that is to let out temper and be specific in areas of lives.

A lesson is being learnt, but a great price is being paid. Disorganisation. But I must think of an idea to do the best solution. Uphold certain qualities in our lives is certainly something that I hold to see, as a leader. But I thank God for what I am and where I am.

Well, I do realised one thing. Our spouse, or our partners in our future is like us, they are eventually the opposite gender of us.
Whatever that is, I thank God for everything.
Thank God that I am able to pull one of my friends who are affected by her friends, and bring Words of Life into her life.
Often, may of times, words of encouragement may help, but it doesnt really helped much. Actions do. This kind of actions, is different. It needs people who has an issue needs to be resolved, and that person beside him will encourage with him. Thank God for that. :)

“It is the LORD your God you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him.”- Deuteronomy 13:4
For all of us here work for the Lord, and everyone is being equal in front of Him, let it be whatever be from Him. So what do we really work for?
Thank God for affirming one thing.

19The churches in the province of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla[a] greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that meets at their house. 20All the brothers here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.
21I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand.
22If anyone does not love the Lord—a curse be on him. Come, O Lord!

23The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

As I was working tonight, though quite a long day down the road, I thank God that I have the favours of men around me. Thank God for my brother too, Keelin, as he works there as a full timer. In some areas of his life, maybe he may not be as good as the others, but still he still have his power in life, that is given to him by God's Grace, and also, I thank God. I was given a super thick skin, to mix around and the willingness and desire to learn more. It's more than a working place by itself, as it seems to be.

Well, Chris is going to quit soon, because he said this doesnt suits him. But deep within my heart, if deep within your heart, you cry out the most inner desperation in your life, to pursue music with all you can, whatever that comes onto your life, you will never say "no" and "die", but being pushed to a greater height where you have never reached before.

Am I working with my heart?
Certainly, with my heart to people who are there. I do treasure them and yup, I can treat them like my brothers and sisters, because thank God for them, I am where I am.
Oh well, I dun have the power to confront the human souls, but thank God, He has deposited some in me. It's all and all, everything, by God's grace, and to serve my best to my boss, treat them like Jesus! :)
All things happened around me made me more experienced in dealing and handling things, but what really making my spirit, is God. And I really thank God. :)

1 Corinthians 16: 5 to 9.

What are your personal requests in your life?
Is one of your request, to spend time with God?
Why do Paul went so far to another place, just to spend some time with the others?

It takes the same heart within the brothers and the siblings in this Christ's relationship.
It's indeed by that small act on the same day of Pentecost, makes everything all possible by a heart like Christ.
How does these personal requests become possible?
When you believe, not you but Christ is doing the work.

Thank God.:)

Well, it's so encouraging for me to see Amelia, doing so much things, and mee, what am I doing?

Have and great talk with Dad today, and thank God for Dad and Amelia, so blessed tonight, to hear things from Dad and able to talk out most of the stuffs., though I shouldnt have vented my frustration on Dad... :X oops.
When I was at the prayer meeting, I thank God that I went, and I went to the the right place, it's just the right time for me to sort out thee heart matters and to seek Lord with a clear heart. Certainly I am tired and Dad also, and really thank Gdo with that talk, I was so sensitive to Holy Spirit.

Two things happened while I was on the way home. XD
I was able to estimate the time when I was going to reached m stop.
When my mind was like humming a love and breakup song from Elva Hsiao, I saw a couple was quarrelling on the road.
And I was "WOW.".

On the other hand, as I didnt want to do devotions because I am tired, I still did it in the end, and I was looking at my bible on a super comfy bus seat sleeping, I found a verse seems attractive to meXD.

5What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. 6I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. 7So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. 8The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. 9For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building.
1 Corinthians 3:5-9

IT applies to this very event that we all are working out.
We have planted a seed and each of us is watering it. Those who controlled their watering carefully and delicate, God saw the effort and the heart, and He will make them grow.

One thing is, who was the one making it growing?
As we are busying with our stuffs, who are able to identify, who is actually disrupting this beautiful plans?
Not anyone of us here, but the Devil, deceiving us.
An internal confusion is occurring but, are we clear about of feelings?
And what are we actually working for?

My objective for all, is to work as a family. Got issue, resolve it.
And one last thing, all we have done, It's to honour Him. :)
Let us mark our first step.
LEt us buy the seeds and sow them, believing God can help throughout the process. :)


Praise God. :)

Greet each other with peace and love.
Why do we do that for? :)

What did God trying to say?
All for Love, and live in Harmony.
Praise God and thank God. :)

For the first time, life is so rich in me. I am doing things more than usually, especually today. Went out around 7:30 am and then reached home around 12mn, not bad, and Praise God, my strength didnt really burn out and quite sad, one of my assistant managers didn't really feel good, and thank God for my body i am in. :)

Everytime finish work, it's like finishing as workout, I didnt really sweat,, but burn away some fats, cos it requires us to walk at least for a few hours and walked briskly.

Well, the reward of the day is ice cream!

Something scary lurks around my heart today, but thank God. It was the time, when I was with Terence in the car, and a sudden curiosity and voice came to me.
It's like talking about homosexuality. I was praying hard during that time, maybe curosity is there, but God's values is even stronger in my mind. So, thank God for it la.

I believe that evil spirit picks on my curiosity, but thanks be to God, because I can see what I am doing, what the evil spirit trying to convince my mind, lots. So I prayed, and everything ends. Thanks be to God.

Sorry to all though I am not able to be there for the meeting, cos I got rush to work. well, it's not nice, and recently I am still trying out something in life, especially time management. Thank God, for allowing me to take control of my time. I always thank God for Daddy Chris, because he is someone who I can live as and believe, as a role model, like Christ. To be come like Chirst, first become your leadeers, or be like thm, then slowly reached for the impossible.

Well, what Dad has now, it's more than what he has been working, and yeah, as I was trying to go through what he titries to, though it's can never happened, I am able to feel how God is able to within him so powerfully, and the number of sons he has, means how Dad Chris has been so broken before, faithful and even becoming more powerful than before, all by God?

An offering of my soul to the power of body, why not? :)

1Now about the collection for God's people: Do what I told the Galatian churches to do. 2On the first day of every week, each one of you should set aside a sum of money in keeping with his income, saving it up, so that when I come no collections will have to be made. 3Then, when I arrive, I will give letters of introduction to the men you approve and send them with your gift to Jerusalem. 4If it seems advisable for me to go also, they will accompany me.
As we offered up our offerings, what are we actually offering?
Our hearts, our souls and our thoughts.
We offered up a token of what we have, tell God how much He can used this little part of us, to help the others. On the other hands, it also helped us, because others and we, even ourselves can used this money to expand the kingdom of God, just simply by using that amount of money, to find people who are able to afford the trips and fares to other places, and the very mindset of saving the best to the last for His people.

It may seems like, God doesnt provide, but God do. It may seems to be tough for people to save up that time, but throughout the process, God hope to find the hearts that is alighted with Him, and trainings, one heart to go through, to see perseverance and light.

Thank God for the sermons today, it brings me closer what God wants to say. :) Praise God! :)
So, an offering is more than what itself is :)

Praise God. :)

I was real burn out on sunday, all I can say, I am "steamed out" or, "totaled"!
Thank God for the dinner and the day that He has provided me with strength.

Thank God for Mum, for she gives everyone that is in the celebration meeting a heart, a goal, and ask them to think of a theme to work on. It's a wakeup call, as when everyone looks for a theme, I hope they will find an ownershipin this celebration. :)

Thank God for Sunday's sermons, managed to practise it on my family yesterday. I confessed, I didn't take the sermons carefully, keep falling asleep. Haiz. Oh well.. :/
It happened on yesterday, where I am sort of quarrelling over my teeth. Yes, my tooth on back of my right side, it aches around 1 or 2 months ago, it's not sensitive, but more of like, just simply drinking cold water will affect the left side of my teeth, like symptoms of decaying. So, I quarrelled with them that I did asked my mum, since long ago, for a small amount to have a dental checkup, and she had forgotton about it somehow, keep forgetting it. Well, since she keeps fprgetting it, so ya, I gave up taking up the subject to talk about until yesterday.
While my mum telling me about how toothaches affects one's mood, I told her I wasn't like her. I guess she knows what I mean.
My dad came in, and he said, "why are you still eating sweet stuffs?", which I know I shouldn't, but do not have the wrong perception. You can have sweet stuffs even though you have tooth, not teeth decay, just that after eating, remember to rinse your mouth.
And he said, it's because of not enough sleep, or sleeping late. Traditional Chinese Medication, may have that indication, but to a certain extent, I dun believe it, though science has proved TCM did have some medication effects, as my brother told me that, and it's a fact, which I reluctant accepted it.

I went to bath, and my soul began to calm down. Lord told me some stuffs, through yesterday's sermons. At the end of the day, I did said sorry to them at the end of the day, because God showed me I am wrong, and of course I did feel it that way. I guess my dad was angry with me, cos he will normally chat with me, oh well. Thank God that the toothache is slowly disppearing, I guess the pain is related to the issue also, and lesser and lesser.
Most importantly, thank God, I am still able to take out some of the important points and ya, everything was fine today, and I gave my dad a kiss, as he helps me out to find how to go Novena from my school. Thank God that able to know to say sorry and feel guilty.

Thank God, I also managed to find a permanent part time job.
Guess it can reduce the amount of my mum's expense somehow, and ya, finally can have the chance to save even more money up! :)
It's same as where Keelin is working, or rather, I should said I am working at the pasta restaurant, that place we ate on sunday, Paste de Waraku! :)
Sweet, it's a great chance to have Keelin guiding me in my work! Wee!
Luckily I told the manager that I am only able to work like 3 days, otherwise he sure burn off my sundays and saturdays, haha. :D

Sunday was a great day, it's like a vision was input into me.
It brings me back to this verse,
"Awake, awake, O Zion."~ 1 Isaiah 52.
It reminds very clearly, because as I am maybe doing a lot of things currently, I must know what the Lord wants me to do, and what He has made a way, and providing for me.
And, a pair of hands was getting close to the eyes and rubbing it, and it reminds me of that verse, "Awake, awake, O Zion". Knowing what I am doing, why I am doing, and one thing is I must enjoy it. :)
It may seems like I got plentiful of stuffs to work on, but am I really do not to neglect all those?
No, but in fact, within all those of so much that He has prepared in front, there are something for me to enjoy, now it's up to me, whether am I willing to be used by Him, and out of all times, like what Dad Chris does, when he is simply tired, just continue to walk with Christ though I need time to regain my stamina, and to continue to try to run and finish the race, withh all I have, and I can.
Like what He has always told me, "I will provide all things that you need, as long as you seek and ask, but dun neglects things that is happening around."
You can hasten your steps, but please slow down your speed in life.
Life can be fast, but slow down to the things you see. :)

WEll that pair of eyes that I saw seems to be familiar too, dunno where seen before. :)

It's really by Him that I can walked so supernaturally. :)
58Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.~ 1 Corinthians 15: 58.

As He showed in my life, clearing all the distractions, and I thank God for all these work that is not going to be in vain, because He is building my little and simple faith and trust of a little child. :)


Thank God for everything.

Thank God for the dinner at pasta de WARAKU.
It's such a fun thing to see each of us snatching for the food that we wanted to eat, though I am not full, hehe. :)

While on the way home, I was thinking the things I done before and doing now, like the event and others. Well, wanted to talk to someone but sad thing is, whenever I wanted to talk to someone or something, the work is always put onto my mouth. Otherwise, I dunno how to connect with the others. Oh well, maybe missed out some real lots of stuffs with the others, though everyone seems to be so free, and it came to a thought. CAnt help to think I am alone, while walking towards the bus stop. I often try to find what's the difference between me and the others, and well, most probably I dunno their hobbies or interests. Oh well. =)

It's certainly not something good for me to think about, and Devil tries to attack me?
Well, the thing with my mind is, how to change it, when I seems to be living by myself?

And so, I must live with others. But how?
Concern about others.
Very typical answer, but that's the fact. O.O
So what others doesnt seem to care about me?
Dun care lo! I will just do what I need to do. :)
It's rewarding for me today, I thank God that I am able to go for today's re-encounter and though kinda sad because I didnt go for cell today.
I thank God that He always tell me that He is always with me, asking me to persevere through some things in life, especially sins.
I thank God that I went today, otherwise I still dunno how to fight with the sin of lust in me, and how to overcome it and repenting in God's way.
Learnt a lot, especially the part where treasuring the relationship with the one we prayed before, and lots.
Ah, today as we practising how to prophecise, I managed to get a Word from Christ. It's so cool!

But overall, didnt feel quite happy at the end of the day though.
Maybe that stupid moment that S.A.tan talked deceived me zzz.
But really thank God for His presence.
Time for me to grow, I shall not grumble like a kid, anymore. :)
Sometimes, felt it's real hard to trust the people around me, but well well, I will not to doubt, because they are all human like me, but in God's image. If they are there, God will use them and we are there together to build family! :)

Thank God, that I am able to commit my feelings onto His Hands when my feelings went into conflicts, like I am supposed to behave like a child, but I have become an adult, thoughts wnt in and out of my mind, hard to be myself. If I don't communicate much, people thought I'm anti-social. If I talked too much, people thought I am hyper.
Hmm, so hard to be a human. WAnted to dun care everything and just walk away, but can't because I belongs to the family.
Somemore most of the people around me, doesnt know what am I talking, but thank God the people in CRuSH, do! Thank God thank God, that Leo offered me his help, and asked when there's a need. Wee, not scared of not enough people to help out lo, only scare not enough place for people to sit lo! Did talked to Leo about one of my weakness today, and well, he has applied what in his life into my life, and it's certainly enlightening. HAHa! Thank God and thank you, Uncle Leo! =)

Often, I have this thought that is to run up and to be under a pastor's 12. It's not impossible but neither is it good,because since I am born in this family, I guess God placed me there, beause the family needs me, and moreover if there's really a need, I dun need to think about it, and God will just ask me to go for it, or maybe being selected to go over.
Well, if being selected to go over, Dad will certainly agreed, but he will be more or less, heart broken, because I will become his ex-son, or once-before his son. I will be quite sad, but after all, I will just give thanks to God and Dad. :)
Because, indeed, he has raised a son, but dunno successful or not la. :)


1 Corinthians 15: 35-58.
I was reading on what's about the dead and the ones.
In the end, it summaries whatever does do, it will all come to a point, where the love of Christ is spreaded around the whole world, overflowing together with His power and glory, and the dead shall rises up.
All creation shall sing.
In the end, there are no more death, for death is overcome by the Love of Christ.

What are the perishables?
We, humans and things that makes us perish, sins.
What are the imperishables?
Righteousness, Holiness, His Love and His Blood, if we have them, we are considered dead to our old self. As we are clothed with that, we will not die, for all the sins have left us as we died within flesh, but not the spirit.
"Death has been swallowed up in victory."
55"Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?" 56The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

No longer there is death but life, for Death is gone.
58Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

So what do Christ want to tell us?
He loves us very much, and it's All for Love. :)
Let us prepare for the second coming of Christ!
If not yet, just plant a seed into Holy Spirit, and ask a gift from Him. =)
Thank God for today. :)

got lots to share today. Maybe a bit long winded, but will still try to keep it short.

Thank God for the meeting yesterday with Samuel.
Thank You Lord for the time I spent with Julian, edwin and samuel. It's been sometimes where the brothers come together and play lan. It's hard, aand Ithank God for thatchance.
I thank God that eh, I sinned on thursday,He's with me. the darkest moment of that time, often Devil tries to cheat me, lie to me and ya.
It doesnt matter how much we can fight, or whatever we does. It just whether are we capable of saying sorry, willing to repent in all circumstances, when the Spirit told you. It's also whether we can lay it down all and all, agreeing with Him that we are weak, and He is strong. WE don't fight that hard, and if can't handle, pass to the next best player, that is Jesus Christ, Our Father in Heaven. =)
I thank God for such a brother like Edwin, who is not scared of any embarrassment(I am not saying he is thickskinned) then dare to speak out everything. I was such a tense-up guy until I saw Edwin and appreciate the way taht he is so open up. Often, we try to guard each others' hearts and minds, which we are responsible and should be sensitive to others mind, I really thank God that it's been quite sometime, I did not have a chat like that free, enjoyed it. =)

Another thing is, everytime I saw her, she sort of leads me towards Christ more and more. Miracloously, so far she's the second woman in my life so far, just by looking onto her, God spoke to me. Well, for it has written,"the seed is the word of wisdom". And maybe she is the word of Wisdom, from Christ onto me. I thank God for her, and those who are around my life.

As I went out and brainstorming some of the ideas about some of things, it brought me back to Christ, which simple is still the best. Simple can refer to lots of things, like patient, and lots. Back to basic of being a faithful believer.
As I was preparing myself to talk to Lord here and to share with you guys, I was finding a song, that He put a promise in my heart, and I gave thanks to it. =)

Sometimes I wonder what lies ahead
How long till my hunger is fed
They say it’s hard to make it in this part of town
So many people on this merry-go-round

Some folks try astrology
Some turn to crystal balls

To find an answer,
To get through it all
I just fall on my knees and I try to pray
In the silence I can hear Him say

The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to patience and watch for the sign
Everything in its time

I often feel like I’m two steps behind
Somebody must have moved that finish line
There are a thousand reasons
Why I should give up
But I’m stubborn in the things I believe

The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to patience and watch for the sign.

’cause maybe there’s another plan
One I still can’t see
A little surprise, like your love in my life
Funny how time changes how we see
~Corrinne May, Everytime has its time.

We are all have been working towards that goal, like what Samuel says, our lives are like paper, fragile and easily tore off. The fibres in the paper, are like connective tissues in us, connecting us together. It's a piece of blank paper, nothing special from others. It did become different, when you allowed people, who are worldly or those who are believe in Lord deeply, to draw on you. But did you realised one thing?

The paper can be re-made again. Beating it into a pulp after adding water, and put it on a big container with other portions of pulp, and add in some purification substance, and take some up with the sieve. Paper pulp rests on the sieve, waiting to dry, waiting to be used.
Often God take us through some process of purification, for my case, it's like seeing her reflects in my life, clearing up the bad thoughts and persevere through with Holy Spirit, I am new again, and in fact, I am being broken down everyday, into paper pulp. To apologise to the things I done wrongly, whether is to human or, ultimately to God.
It brought me even further back to where He started the walk with me in my life.
Everything has its time. (:
Breaking us down totally, with memories to learn because everything has its time to do its stuffs,
because maybe there’s another plan one I still can’t see. A little surprise, like the love that going to happen in our lives, it becomes funny how time changes how we see, like dreams do that we pursuing does change too. :)
Come, come and relax your soul in His Arms, others, let Him to do it. Just seek Him with all your heart. :)

As I was being led to temptation and even sinned against the lust of flesh, I thank You Lord, that I have read about what DAd has wroted for his devotions.

But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. ~ 2 Cor 12:9-10

I thank You Lord, that I am able to find the most tiniest hope within God, that touch of Your hand. Oh Lord, is my heart unable to save? or was it too hard for you to touch, if that is, I will be going to change by You. Hope that this dying of myself can be the new salvation in me Thank You Lord.

What is the most pleasing thing? That is to follow Christ, and find the most beautiful place, that is Heaven.
I will try to fight. The most beautiful place for You is my heart, that is Your home.
What shows my weakest? How powerful can You do it? I dunno, let it be You my Lord.
31I die every day—I mean that, brothers—just as surely as I glory over you in Christ Jesus our Lord. 32If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus for merely human reasons, what have I gained? If the dead are not raised,
"Let us eat and drink,
for tomorrow we die."[d] 33Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character." 34Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God—I say this to your shame.

Thank You Lord for Your Word.


36How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. 37When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or of something else. 38But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to each kind of seed he gives its own body. 39All flesh is not the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another and fish another. 40There are also heavenly bodies and there are earthly bodies; but the splendor of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is another. 41The sun has one kind of splendor, the moon another and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor.
1 Corinthians 15 : 36 to 41

It speaks to me. I may have a body that its most powerful sin in its life is lust, how am I to keep this spirit pure? It came from the thoughts, my mind which doesnt seems to be functioning today, and certainly I give in to my emotions.
I repented.

31I die every day—I mean that, brothers—just as surely as I glory over you in Christ Jesus our Lord. 32If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus for merely human reasons, what have I gained? If the dead are not raised,
"Let us eat and drink,
for tomorrow we die."[d] 33Do not be misled: "Bad company corrupts good character." 34Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God—I say this to your shame.
So I should have run towards You. Thank You Lord for Your Grace. =)
I thank You Lord for the Grace and Mercy that has rained down on me.

Thank Lord for today, making my heart to go towards You, that I am able to make my way and held onto the perseverance and visit my patient, though my heart doesnt want it much.
Though I felt like giving up Lord, I thank Lord, for making the journey smooth and sweet. Smooth, for the journey itself has a lots of obstacles for me to cross over. Sweet, because the journey was harsh but the presence with Him was sweet. =)
Time waiting for the buss, made an appointment to have lunch with CRuSH's staff, temptations within my heart comes along, but I thank God for helping me to overcome it. It's a powerful visit for me, even though I didnt managed to pray for him.
I thank God that it rains when I was rushing there. The traffic light and the tree that I was hiding under from the rain, and even for that moment that He reduced the rain slightly, I thank God for it.
I thank God that I didnt fall sick, was treated nicely by the family and seeing my patient sitting there with peace, watching television.
All and all, there's too much to give thanks. I thank Lord for giving me a guideline for this coming event. Maybe not a lot will come, but will commit it to You, thank you Lord for being my Advisor.
LOts and lots of ideas came into my mind. Sorry Lord for me not able to give You a place to seek You, forgive me O Lord. =(

Now I am giving a chance and a choice for me to do the thing or not. I will try my best Lord, hope I do not disappoint You, O Lord. =)

I thank God, for bringing me back to where I am and I supposed to be.
A Road with lots of hands coming out. Certainly it has its obstacles to finish and that builds us up. These hands are a process to strengthen us, and giving us the choice to grow faster. These hands, maybe slowing us down, and in fact, I thank God for that.
It brings reflections into our lives.
There are times, that He ask us to slow down, because He cant catch up with us... but was it really He that can't catch up with us? Or we can't catch up ourselves, leaving all the mess for You to clear? And are we really that fast? Oh Lord, are You just simply hinting us to slow down as we have You as our main attention and priority in our lives?
How much of us do understand the great heart of Yours?
Let there be less speed, more haste.

I pray that let there be more of You to be in my life, it's not that I dun care, but He has a better idea how to walk in this life than me. =)
Thank God for He is walking with me through my life. =)
Thank God for the temptations that makes my heart to fight and run away and hide in You whenever I am weak, and heal my body, O Lord. Thank you Father, Hope I can shine the Light of Yours, so brightly. =)

The Resurrection of Christ, 1 Corinthians 15: 1 to 10.
He told me the rise of Christ, but it's more than what it is. It's something else on the other hand. Our sins, our spirits and our lives that has been changed by the power of Christ. As I raised up by You and reborn in Spirit, I was also reborned in my life, for the sins and lies have been taken away by God, and it's God who changed my life.
There's something more that is being rised in me, that's the Love that Christ had given to me, otherwise, there won't be the resurrection of Christ.
7Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
I thank God for my full birth in Christ as I considered myself as one of the abnormals, which is being called back by His Grace as I was working part time and searching for things that last forever in my life, which is Him
I was called back by the promise that made with You, that I have made before I left the church. I have never forget the promise that I made to You.
I will come back to church when my polytechnic terms starts. My promise to You.
I guess that is something I never miss out.

10But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.
I thank You Lord for the Grace that You have put and work harder in me. I may have put some effort, but certainly He has put more effort into my life than me.
Maybe I can't speak too much to anyone else, but allow my prayers to work almightily.
I believe that You are Christ.=)
Thank You Lord. =)

+the moment I was struggling with sins in my life+
