God’s Boxes

Monday, November 20th, 2006

I have in my hands two boxes,
Which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold."

I heeded His words, and in the two boxes,
Both my joys and sorrows I stored,
But though the gold became heavier each day,
The black was as light as before.

With curiosity, I opened the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
Which my sorrows had fallen out by.

I showed the hole to God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be!"
He smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child, they’re all here with me.."

I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold and the black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings,
The black is for you
to let go."

What a great God we have, remember to count your blessings everyday or even every moment when u take your breath

Changed

Sunday, November 19th, 2006

It has been 6 months since i last went back to my hometown, Kelantan.It’s a "slow" state in many perspektives,eg:development,pace of living,the speed of the cars moving?the movement of the pedestrains?hahaa…but one thing can be "fast",the population of the society.It’s not difficult to get a family with half a dozen of children in the family.(not sure about the real growth in the state though)…
Although there is not much entertainment in Kelantan but lately many new houses,shopping malls,hotels were newly built…

Time has passed
Things has changed
Environment has changed
People has changed
Thought has changed
BUT Family and God’s love NEVER change

Miracles Do Happen

Sunday, November 12th, 2006

Our God is a great God
Our God is a God who answers prayer
Our God is a provider
Our God is a father that loves his children

He knows our needs
He hears our prayers
He answers our prayers
He gives us the best

It is the end in our eyes, but in God,it’s just the beginning
There is always a light after the tunnel
Thank God for answering my prayer instantly although my trust in Him is just like a seed
Thank God miracles do happen
The miracle happened within 24 hours and this is another miracle

S.O.S

There are time when you know you have to help someone but you are not able to help,you dont have the ability to help either financially,emotionally,mentally,etc….
It is really a torture feelings for both parties,one feels helpless,the other feels hopeless.
What can we do?Just PRAY n hope for MIRACLES…..

Come out of the closet

Sunday, November 5th, 2006

"Come out of the closet"…hmm…i read this from  James’s blog in fact i get the similar message during our church workers’conference yesterday.there were 4 speakers shared  but i just want to highlight on the sharing from one of them.
The theme of the meeting was about church planting.This speaker(Mr.David Goh) said we may have good theory,methods,well equipped,vision…etc…want to do great things for God and plant churches.BUT no matter how hard we try,we just cant do it the best as we can because there are something in our hearts that "STOP" us.These maybe things like our past,bad experience,sin that hinder us from moving on.We are like living in the closet or being "framed" and cant walk out from it.We have to settle all these before we can move on.
Yes,it is very true.Most of the time we cant move on or rather we got stuck because there are things that stop us and remind us that we are not perfect,we sin,so we cant do it properly and we are not going to succeed.I wont blame satan because sometimes satan is naive too(is that true?)I should blame myself as i am not brave enough to admit my sin to God or rather i confess and i commit the same sin again and again.
So, I have decided to confess again and pray that i will stay firm.I know I can do it because God will be helping me.This morning,when we were having the morning prayer,while i am playing the piano and speaking in tougue,i just felt that there was a very special feeling in my heart and my tougue can "move"/"vibrate"(sorry,dont know what word to use here) very freely.This is the first time i feel so freely while speaking in tougue.Thank God ! and continue to pray that God will help me,mould me,use me as His vessel.
Praise The Lord !!

Love at first sight

Friday, November 3rd, 2006

Do you believe in love at first sight? Studies done by Scientists on our brain
activity and shows that it is quite possible but it depends on us whether or not to
believe.

Love at first sight must be meeting in person?How about just looking at the picture/photo?Or with the latest technology  by just viewing the webcam?

What attracts u to love someone(referring to love at first sight)?

1.the appearance of a person ?
2.the voice of a person ?
3.the height of a person?
4.the chemistry that happens ? sparks ?
5.first impression that you get ?
6.the mood that you have at the time ?emotion?
7.others….?anyone would like to suggest?

Will anyone believe and dare to take up this relationship?Confident enough to grow if it comes to you?
