Went to cell yesterday, by God's Grace and Time, A great message about being someone who is able to see himself in God and be different from anyone else, in this earth.
Went to a wake, yesterday, by God's Grace and Time, a wake service speaks about God's forgiveness and greatness into others life.
Went to Gkids, by God's Grace and His Timing, I am able to reach on time and about to reach there smoothly.
Went to young service, by God's Grace and Time, I am able to take back my phone safely by getting through and fro from Kor Kor Tan's car, and if you dunno who is it, I am referring to Uncle Terence(and that's how the kids called him.) :D
Went back to home, by God's grace I reached home safely. By His Time, I reached home, and just nice, my mum asked me what I will like to eat for dinner.
His Grace and Time is unconditional.
But the relationship with Him is conditional.
That's the one who perks me up throughout the rest of the service.
My journey in Christ is still young, 2 years.
But so far, what really bring close is a heart who want to seeks Christ. Today, during my service, I was really distracted, like not being a good host to Gabriel's girlfriend, that is really my fear.
I was wondering why I got so many worries, but at the end of the day, only by this moment, God uses Dad's words to fall into my mind. A lot of thoughts came through.
- Words onto any church is powerful
- Both churches are good neighbours
My mind was comparing the two churches, afraiding that anything bad will spoil church's reputation. This kind of thoughts, I must confess and I must repent.
Still thank God, cos I keep myself focus onto worship, though all that sinster thoughts just really kills my mood. I could have just pray! :(
But still, God told me, it's still the house of God. God is above all else. Never forget that. :)
Guess this is a good time to practise full-set forgiveness? :)
The Lord told me this.
7You are looking only on the surface of things. If anyone is confident that he belongs to Christ, he should consider again that we belong to Christ just as much as he. 8For even if I boast somewhat freely about the authority the Lord gave us for building you up rather than pulling you down, I will not be ashamed of it. 9I do not want to seem to be trying to frighten you with my letters. 10For some say, "His letters are weighty and forceful, but in person he is unimpressive and his speaking amounts to nothing." 11Such people should realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present.
2 Corinthians 10: 7 to 11.
I need to repent as I looked upon what apostle Paul had written. As this letter of His speaks to me, I do realised I am in fault, because of my pride. Yes, I am confident because I belongs to Christ, but on the other hand, I should be asking for forgiveness because inside my pride, I do have that middle letter of "pride". Especially those sinster thoughts. That makes me looks like one of the Pharisees. And the letter seems to sort of describe my character that He moulded me into. Words that I spoke may seems no power when I am not present. But do be aware, especially when I'm around, because the power comes when I'm be in actions towards what He gives, speaks, writes and commands.
On the other hand I must also be aware what Paul has warned not only to me, but to the others too.
His letters are weighty and forceful, but in person he is unimpressive and his speaking amounts to nothing." 11Such people should realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present.
It's also only through actions, His power came upon us and work on us, powerfully. :)
You are looking only on the surface of things.
Yes, it's good to be practical and looking at the facts, but do look beyond it, because what is seen is temporary but what is unseen is eternal. (:
We’re gonna dance dance dance
In the freedom we know
We’re gonna dance dance dance
In the freedom we know
We’re gonna dance dance dance
In the freedom we know
Because the freedom we know is gonna last forever
Let there be freedom in what we sees. (:
“Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.”- John 17:17
When I was trying to reach out to a bunch of working friends, Daddy Jesus also taught me this. (:
1By the meekness and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul, who am "timid" when face to face with you, but "bold" when away! 2I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold as I expect to be toward some people who think that we live by the standards of this world. 3For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. 4The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 5We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 6And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.
My friends all have different types of troubles, worries, questions, doubts, and others to come before Christ. It's hard, it's pure faith, but I have to repent because I have not been praying well. Hope all this praying can bring back and mould back the relationship with Our Heavenly Father. (:
I tried so hard to talk to them and shared God's good news with them, and some actually sees it. PRaise God.
I tried so hard, also no use. The fact of salvation is supernatural, which can only be through Him.
I want to get the best of the evil, take captive of every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
Guess that is the best of evil, where there is no need to think so much and still can improvise. XD (:
Yours is the Kingdom.
Forgiveness I have received as I have confessed, thank you Lord, for what You have done is All for Love. (:
Thank God and praise God for everything, especially every moment and the times spent. (:
