kindness;

27Jan10

nowadays at work, everyday i’m amazed at the kindness and the thoughtful actions.

i can’t help but think everyday on how God works through this person, filling actions and thoughts.

Did i once have that?

Did i ever have that?

I’m ashamed. But i’m deeply humbled and touched.

Everyday i learn something new from another child of God.

Oh how blessed i am!

obedience;

20Jan10

is an absolute.

Are you going to say yes or no?

because beyond the answer is eternity at stake.

because the terms and conditions that you make will only make the process harder.

because the joy beyond it is way beyond our understanding until we finish it.

My answer is yes.

So please guide these sinful hands and heart, because i know i will disappoint you but in you i find a guidance which i hope in.

The purity of the cross.

complete

11Jan10

a word of perfection, uttered countless times in the Word.

Phillipians 1:6

“…he who began a good work in you will carry it to completion..”

Hebrews 7:25

“Therefore he was able to save completely…”

1 John2:5

” …God’s word is truly made complete in him.”

God speaks of perfection, completion in all that He does.

It is strange for us but not for him, for he made us this way.

For us, what can be complete is complete obedience. This doesn’t mean being a slave or servant. But hearing a logic from someone who has complete information.

His will and good plan for us is perfect, so shouldn’t our submission be perfect?

Do we attach anymore conditions to our prayers or responses?

” God, if you do this, i will serve you.” ” God is you give me this, i will listen to you.” ” God please make this happen, although i dont even know what is your will.”

all these prayers.

Like brother Michael said, God doesn’t read the terms and conditions. he asked for the willing. he asked for the sincere.

if we have all those conditions, more often than not, we limit our adaptability to receive God’s reward.

Instead, let us come like a plain tool, ready to be used, not laced with terms of conditions.

Let God show you his power, and that’s as great as gift as any.

His gift is like his will, once and always…

complete.

pride;

07Jan10

Pride.

I hear myself echoing this word in my mind as well as to people around me.

Often times, we see it as sin. Pride comes before a fall. Complacency comes as a vile fruit of pride.

But as i think of it, pride unbridled, unaccounted and undetected is but a magnet for sin.

Yes but pride, open, biblical, driven for the purpose of something greater than ourselves, for God is more powerful than we imagine it to be.

It is a double edged sword, piercing skin at the slightest touch.

It sharpens a drive, fires a passion, presses us to action.

It all depends on how you direct it.

This is but a thought.

Feel free to air your opinions (:

a disciple;

15Dec09

Crashed youth camp today and it was more nostalgic than i thought it could be.

i could see it in my heart as if it was yesterday. But its not about looking back but really about watching youths praise and worship God and to really just spend some time in a familiar, comfort zone.

thanksgiving;

01Dec09

its been thanksgiving in the states and i myself want to have an act of thanksgiving for:

1. a great GC which broadened my understanding of myself. I’ve yet to really ocnsolidate everything so i’ll post later hopefully!

2. Fantastic brothers in Christ who stayed together in the same villa! It was a crazy time! *jumps on a chair and drums the table*

3. For a certain God given friend from down under, who’s message really touched me so deeply because it came out of the blue, simply for concern and encouragement (: thankies

4. For a renewed sense of growing vigour for the WOG. Thank you for answering this prayer.

5. For being able to wake up everyday to see the beauty of God’s hand.

I’m too sinful to be worthy of everything.

Too insecure to be sure in faith.

But in all things that i’m weak in, God strengthens.

All he asks is for me to

Believe
