Are we not in Good Hands already?

Its 20th of February!! What can I say? Its a month from now and I'll be leaving for Tassie... Gosh.. Times flies just before u even know it.. Such as reading this short sentence.. U have just wasted 10 seconds of your valuable time... Lol... enough foolish words... The real thing is...
There is a part in me that I'm feeling so impatient and yet curiously feel with anxiety to what is gonna happen as I step out of my nest... A home and land that i have been living for the past 17 years... What would the Real world be like out there? Inevitably... We face it as we come to this stage in our life... For example, do u see a bird stalking its parents or following them for the rest of its life? hehe.... I just watch a movie name ' Step Brothers'.. Heard of it aye?.... It talks about two idiotic and childish sons who met each other through their Dad and Mom's Marriage.. :).. Jumping to conclusion.. They end up growing up in the end and facing the world as a 40 year old man... who has been with his Mum/Dad for the past 40 years... hahaha.... Well, the movie doesnt teaches u much as it is a comedy but in the end.. There is a moral to everyone that.. No matter how old or young u are.... In the end.. you must face reality as in leaving the nest where you've been staying mostly of your life... Who would feed us? Who would guide us without our parents? who would tell us and teach us what is right and wrong?Who would tell us what step to take?


Actually....
There is this One..
This Magnificent One that guides u even before ur birth and your presence to the world. Its Noneotherthantheless, Our God... He is the one who provides for us.. Feed us daily ... Look at the birds of the air, for they neither SOW nor REAP nor gather into BARNS; yet your HEAVENLY FATHER feeds them. Are you not more VALUE than THEY? (Matt 6:26)

So.. Stepping out into the world is not more then a worry but a gift for you between u and your Heavenly Father.. Experiencing his care,love,joy.peace,protection and most importantly companionship.. The peace where the world really need is this kind of peace.. U can't just give it out and by words.. Its a kind of saint feeling that u are just out of debt,ties,stress and anything that is just pulling u off... Its a feeling only given by God... Place all your anxieties into his hand and let him deal with it.. But before that.. Most importantly.. Fear Him for He Is LORD and Repent for your wrong doings whole heartedly....


Peace and Love to the Readers.

Seeing Jesus

When I was young, I thought I knew exactly what Jesus looked like. After all, I saw Him every day whenever I looked at some pictures in my bedroom. One showed Jesus knocking at a door and the other depicted Him as a Shepherd with His sheep.

What I didn't know was that a meredecade before I was born, those pictures of Jesus didn't exist. Warner Sallman painted the well-known "Head of Christ" and the other potraits of Jesus in the 1940s. Those images were just one man's idea of what Jesus might have looked like.

The Bible never gives a physical description of Jesus. Even the men who saw Him every day didn;s tell us what HE looked like. In fact, the only clue we have is a passage in Isaiah that says: "There is no beauty that we should desire Him" (53:2).It seems that Jesus' human form was deliberately de-emphasized. He looked like an ordinary man. People weren't drawn to Him because of a regal appearance but because of what He said and did and because of the message of love He came to give (John 3:16).

But the next time Jesus comes to earth, it will be different. When our Savior returns, we will recognize Him as the soverign King of kings and Lord of lords! (1 Tim. 6:14-15). -- Cindy Hess Kasper

The more I see His beauty,

The more I know His grace,

The more I long, unhindered,

To gaze upon His face. --Anon

To see Jesus will be heaven's greatest joy

Gone With The Wind

The epic film based on Margaret Mitchell's novel Gone With the Wind opens with these lines:

"There was a land of Cavaliers and Cotton Fields called the Old South. Here in this pretty world, Gallantry took its last bow. . . . Look for it only in the books, for it is no more than a dream remembered, a Civilization gone with the wind."

Not only does a way of life disappear but also the dreams that drice the main characters. Throughout the Civil War, Scarlett O'Hara is preoccupied with her love for Ashley Wilkes. But by story's end, she is disillusioned.

Solomon saw the futility of seeking satisfaction in people and things. Despite amassing wealth and knowledge, completing great projects, and marrying many wives, he said, "All is vanity and grasping for the wind" (Eccl. 1:14).

Why does chasing transitory things leaves us unfulfilled? The biblical answer is that we were created to find our ultimate fulfillment in God. Jesus promised, "I have come that they may have life. and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10).

People and things coem and go. But the spiritual satisfaction Christ offers sustains us in this world and wil endure into eternity. --Dennis Fisher

What cmoes from man will never last,

It's here today, tomorrow past;

What comes from God will always be

The same for all eternity! --Spencer

Invest your life in what pays eternal dividends.

Waiting For Joy

A large part of life centers around anticipation. How much we would lose if we were to wake up one day to the unexpected announcement:"Christmas in 10 minutes!" The enjoyment in many of life's events is built on the fact that we have time to anticipate them.

Christmas, vacations, mission trips, sporting events. All grow in value because of the hours we spend looking forward of them--eagerly running through our minds the fun, challenges, and excitement they'll bring.

I think about the value of anticipation and the thrill it can bring to the human heart when I read Psalm 30:5, "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." The psalmist is declaring the comforting idea that our earthly sorrow lasts but a short time when compared with the anticipated joy that will begin in heaven and lasts forever. Paul pens a similar idea in 2 Corinthians 4:17, where we discover that our "light affliction" leads to a glory of eternal value.

For now, those of us who weep can dwell on hope instead of hopelessness and anticipation instead of sorrow. It may be nighttime in our hearts, but just ahead lies the dawn of eternity. And with it, God promises the endlesss joy of heavenly morning. --Dave Branon

Tribulation, grief, and sorrow

Are but heaven's steppingstones

To a bright and glad tomorrow

Where no heartache can be known. --Glass

We can endure this life's trials

because of the next life's joys.

Has The World Gone MAD?

Aihh... Another day going to pass soon... There is no turning back for what we did today. Its a fact in our life for what we decided today.. Days goes by just as eating an ice-cream. Just finished my dinner, had ba kut teh and Chendol.. Lol ... I'm so full now I feel like they(ba kut teh and chendol) are gushing each other.

I'm wondering of what should I do after spm. Time pass away so rapidly even catching a moment looking at ourself at the mirror is impossible except quick looks >.<. One thing for sure that is we are counting our days to be with God...The Whole World has gone mad.. Sad.. It was just yesterday as if someone was screaming for their lifes, praying, grieving over what happen in Mumbai, INDIA. Crazy Extremist bomb well organized targets and tortured all their way to reach their goal.. I mean what is their goal anyway bombing here and there? Just to let everyone know they are there?... Crazy people in a Crazy world... Willing to give up their God given life.. Sadly we did not reach out to them before they do all these horrific activities..

Hmm.. Are we safe then? lol.. You cant even tell if your neighbour is a terrorist.. Haha... Wrong teachings circulating through out the world... bad bad bad.... I think they are just fed up with negotiations with the government... The government won't even want to negotiate in order to prevent a habit of negotiating..

A Convenient Christianity

So many television programs, so little time to watch them. Apparently that's what our culture thinks, because now technology allows us to see an hour-long program in just 6 minutes or less! The Minisode Network has pruned epsiodes of popular series into shorter, more convenient packages for interested viewers. "The shows you love--only shorter" is how it's advertised. All to make our life more convenient.

Some have tried to make the Christian life more convenient. They choose to practice Christianity on Sunday only. They attend a religious service at whatever church makes them most comfortable. They give a small offering and are nice to fellow churchgoers--nothing that requires much effort on their part. That way they can have the rest of the week to themselves, to live as they please.

That would be a convenient Christianity. But we know that following Jesus is a lifestyle and not a Sunday-only for Him (Matt. 16:25). It's about living as Jesus calls us to live, daily giving up our plans and purposes for His. A relationship with Him causes us to be concerned with our thoughts. decisions, attitudes, and actions--all to make our life joy-filled for us and pleasing to God. --Anne Cetas

The Christian life is more than just

A prayer of faith made in the past;

It's dedicating every day

To live for Christ and what will last. -Sper

Faith in Christ is not just a single stop

but a life of walking with Him.

Why? Holiday?

Its so unfair.. S2A just finished their SPM today... We should finish it on the sameday manakala we have to wait till monday. I know its a short time but being in a state of studying while they are starting to plan for their holiday isn't quite right.. If our test was to be scheduled tomorrow, that would at least be okay but darn them. Have to wait three days. Seems like racing with the time is always pathetic, we continue to wait, wait , wait and wait.

Hmm... For holiday, feel like planning a fishing trip for the our class but I think someone wouldn't even bother to join because it ain't their stuff... I mean the Fishing Activity.. Lol... Well My Bro Dev is coming back soon and I'm sure tonnes of fun would be cherish together with him.. His the best brother God gave to me. Funny... It all started from Charles( His older Brother) which he and I played dota for awhile and there comes Devendran. Its a long long story anyway... I would publish about him in my futher blogs...

Signing off for now..

Peace Out,
