Part and parcel of growth

Prepared, unprepared, prepared, unprepared, PREPARED! Believe God had already put me through a lot of tests and trials for this restructuring and some I’m certain of. Big thanks to God who planned everything so well and helped me to pass his tests. More obstacles are yet to come and it’ll really test my walk with God.

There is joy in the Lord!

Haha, life has been really great eversince I recommited my life to do it with God. Peace, love, joy and patience started to enter into my life and I can really say confidently everyday, “Thank You Lord for blessing me so greatly today!”.

Tests after tests and I’m already sick of them. Well, at least it makes me study for most of the time. Results are contradicting. English essays have been improving which is cool, however, Amath, Chem and Chi are dropping. Not say I didn’t study or what. Guess I got to find out what’s causing my results to drop and study even harder with God’s help.

Today’s brother’s birthday. Didn’t do anything much for him, just a birthday message. Wonder when would be the next time when I can celebrate birthday with/for my family. It’s been really long.

You’re the only Hope that I cling to. Shall not think too much because it will only cause me to dislike her more and think that she doesn’t care about me. (:

You are my DESIRE ;

DRAW ME CLOSE TO YOU

Draw me close to You
Never let me go
I lay it all down again
To hear You say that I’m Your friend

You are my desire
No one else will do
‘Cause nothing else could take Your place
To feel the warmth of Your embrace
Help me find the way
Bring me back to You

You’re all I want
You’re all I’ve ever needed
You’re all I want
Help me know You are near

 

Hello God. Thank You for opening up my spiritual eyes, heart and ears to receive so much so much from You.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

 

I’m awed by  God’s amazing LOVE for you and me. In our walk with God, there are bound to be many ups and downs just like a roller coaster ride.  When we’re doing well/fine, do we choose to be consistent doing our QT or do we be contented at where we’re at and compromise our time with God? Well, this is really well said: ” Our personal time spent with God is our biggest weapon against Satan”. When we think we’re walking well with God, it’ll be the time when satan is thinking of a  plan to draw us away from God. Well, at least  I’ve learnt from my past mistakes. It’s really important for us  to not be contented when God is  close to  us. We should continue to  be desperate for God to show more of Himself to us and NEVER EVER think that we know enough.

Praise God!

TESTIMONY!

Went to Tanjong Pagar after cca today because borrowing Priscilla’s mac book to do HKL slides. Cca ended at 5 and Pris only can make it at 6.15pm. What does it mean? I’ll be early. Haha. Reached Tanjong Pagar MRT at 5.30pm. First time there. Tried to find somewhere where I can sit down to do homework and God led me to a cafeteria there called Select. Saw that there was food and I decided to grab some light snack cause I thought I was left with less than 2bucks. Opened my wallet and saw a 5dollar note inside(already very amazing already). Want to buy something which cost 5.90 but thought I only have a few sents left so almost told the aunty I don’t want already, but when I counted my coins, I had 1dollar worth of coins! Praise God! I was so happy. After I bought my food, I saw a girl sitting alone. HS prompted me to approach her. Initially i was very fearful and didn’t wanted to obey the HS. However, after I prayed for more courage and words to speak to her, I approached her and asked her if I could sit with her. She said yes. Really thank God that I was very “talkative” at that time which was a good sign and she even opened up to me, sharing to me about her life and telling me that she’s also a shy girl like me. Haha, I then took the opportunity to share Christ to her and how God changed me to the person I am now. I’ll be meeting her next week for lunch sow. 😀

ALL GLORY GOES TO OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN.

Compare and Contrast

Stupid VS Foolish

Stupid means commiting a mistake once and learning from it. Foolish is commiting the same mistake again and again without doing anything to it. It can be if you made a mistake, am aware of it, want to change but gave in to temptation easily and commit the same mistake again.

In the old testiment, Pharoah commited the same mistakes over and over again because of his foolishness, stubborness or whatever you call it. Consequences? Of course there were consequences he had to face. There were 9 in all. The Plague of Blood, Frogs, Gnats, Flies, Livestock, Boils, Hail, Locusts and Darkness. He was tempted. He succumb to his desire for pleasure. He chose Satan’s beautifully clothed temptations over God’s presence. However, in the new testiment, something similar happened again. This time, Satan tried to tempt Jesus [ Luke 4:1-13 ]. Jesus was in a desert where he fasted for 40 days and in those 40 days, Satan tempted Jesus. No doubt Jesus was hungry and weak. Can you imagine 40 days w/o food? Man, I definitely can’t even survive a day w/o food. First temptation: 3The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.” 4Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man does not live on bread alone.'”. Second temptation: 5The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. 6And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor, for it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. 7So if you worship me, it will all be yours.” 8Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'”. Third temptation: 9The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 10For it is written: “‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; 11they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'” 12Jesus answered, “It says: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'”. What does this tell us? Even Jesus, who was so vulnerable that time was tempted and he did not give in? Well, how did he did that? He was rooted in God’s word and he prayed. He did not rely on his own strength and determination but instead he chose to follow God’s ways.

Strong VS Weak

(luke warm is rejected)

The 2 categories of people whom Satan will target. The strong and weak christians. Strong christians because all the more Satan want to bring them away from God. Weak christians because Satan wants to end their relationship with God. Why not luke warm christians? They are the most unstable ones and will stray from God even w/o temptations.

Above the 2 points are from Daniel’s sharing this morning. Found it really encouraging that’s why decided to blog about it. Haha. Well, both points are really applicable to me too. As he was sharing this morning about the stupid and foolish things, a lot of memories flashed back about the mistakes which I had made repeatedly in the past. I rmbr I was very convicted after Heros camp not to make the same mistake again but before Level up camp, I fell into temptation once again and commited the same mistake. Well, no doubt the consequences was much heavier and I had to pay for it. Now, what I can do is to learn from the mistakes which COST and leave no regrets. Also, recently I’ve drifted from God. Not experiencing or hearing from him, not seeking him with the right heart attitude and stuffs. Before that, I thought I was doing well. Unexpectedly, Satan came into the picture. Initially, I felt indifferent. Nothing seemed to be going wrong. But gradually, I felt far away from God, and I know it’s because I was too contented with being where I was. Therefore, no matter how well I’m walking with God right now, I want to continue to seek him with the same desperate and child like heart.
