| Monday, December 14, 2009 Problems in the society today: Everyone wants to speak and no one wants to listen. Everyone wants to do what they want and dun want to do what they dun want. Everyone wants to be the served, not the servant. Everyone wants to lead, not to follow. Everyone wants to satisfy their needs, not others. To summarise, everyone, including me, have a tendency to want things for themselves, satisfy themselves then to think of others. and the most disheartening thing is this is happening everywhere, in families, in couples,parent and child, in husband and wife, mother and child, brothers and sisters, friends, in school, in church, in work. Everywhere. The virus of selfishness have spread to all of us, and caught us so severely that sometimes, we fail to see the virus because we see ourselves more important than the other meat bags around us. and there us this void in us, that seems to never satisfy even we have our wants and needs. There is just one cure for all of us, and it just packed it all into one simple verse, Acts 20:35: "In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.' " Joy is putting Jesus first Others second Yourself last. Let us all remember that the next time we feel our needs becime greater then the needs of others, Stupid at 10:40 PM
Friday, November 13, 2009 Sigh, It has been a bad day for me. I screwed my oral jap test, and when i reached home, found out that my programming assignment is wrong and I submitted it. Have a phy test which test me about the last few chapters of physics, got super paranoid about it, then super worried, in the end, ended up with many careless mistakes.. my life is going down the drain tgt with the results. maybe it is because i got so worried over studies that i neglected God and spend time with him? I duno.. Stupid at 10:43 PM
Monday, November 09, 2009 Today I started of the day by telling myself: Hey, I need to get things right back with God, although I woke up late I managed to squeexe some time for God in prayer.. and I prayed according to the Lord's prayer i learnt in cell yesterdAY. THen after i went to physics tutorial and lecture, i came back feeling super duper low. and then suddenly God went out of my life again. I became like peter, worried that i'll sink.. I couldnt understand anything i study. or couldnt even remember. Trm is my jap listening test, and I dun even fully remember all the vocabs and stuff.. Thing is i have put in effort. I did study.. but I have to agree.. not effectively tho. almost at the verge of breaking down then suddenly heard the song by chris tomlin, was wearing my earphones to study to block out the noise. The song was unfailing love. You have my heart And I am Yours forever You are my strength God of grace and power And everything You hold in Your hand Still You make time for me I can't understand Praise You God of Earth and sky How beautiful is Your unfailing love Unfailing love And You never change God You remain The Holy One My unfailing love Unfailing love You are my rock The one I hold on to You are my song And I sing for You And everything You hold in Your hand Still You make time for me I can't understand Praise You God of Earth and sky How beautiful is Your unfailing love Unfailing love And You never change God You remain The Holy One My Unfailing love Unfailing love And everything You hold in Your hand Still you make time for me I can't understand Praise You God of Earth and sky How beautiful is Your unfailing love Unfailing love And You never change God You remain The Holy One My Unfailing love Unfailing love I will praise You Praise you God of earth and sky How beautiful is your unfailing love Unfailing love And You never change God You remain The Holy One My Unfailing love Unfailing love Unfailing love Unfailing love Unfailing love Unfailing love Super beautiful song.. I dun understand why am i going thru this, and I know i feel screwed up most probably is because something I have done, but some how as the verse of the song says everything is in His Hand and HE make time for me. I just nearly teared. I shoved Him away, but He just wanted me to be back. I ignored Him, yet He is right here with me right now when I needed Him the most. His unfailing love. I going to pray for His grace and mercy for my exams. and hopefully I can do my best. remember His love. Stupid at 10:08 PM
Sunday, November 08, 2009 Everyday they pass me by, I can see it in their eyes. Empty people filled with care, Headed who knows where? On they go through private pain, Living fear to fear. Laughter hides their silent cries, Only Jesus hears. People need the Lord, people need the Lord. At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door. People need the Lord, people need the Lord. When will we realize, people need the Lord? We are called to take His light To a world where wrong seems right. What could be too great a cost For sharing Life with one who's lost? Through His love our hearts can feel All the grief they bear. They must hear the Words of Life Only we can share. People need the Lord, people need the Lord At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door. People need the Lord, people need the Lord. When will we realize that we must give our lives, For people need the Lord. ~Steve Green Today during Sunday school we sand this song, and it is very meaningful. Many times many people pass us by, we know they need the Lord although they refuse to accept him, and sometimes, we just give up, forget about telling them about God, and forget telling them especially through our actions. As i was singing i was running across my mind those who i have met everyday, and I know they need Him, everybody needs Him. Even I need him, after being a christian for 4 years, I still far from where Jesus is. Still so many things to learn from Jesus. We can run away, shy away, ignore the fact, shut our eyes, turn our heads away. But nothing can make us deny that.. we need the Lord. Stupid at 7:24 PM
Friday, November 06, 2009 Happy 21St to me.. today is my 21st birthday and it marks my life as the beginning of adulthood. And the same question ponders my mind every single birthday, did i become a better man than last year? My 21st birthday wish was to become a Godly man, a man who fears God, loves God, loves man. I'm far from my target. way far, so many things to work on and stuff, and its really intangible, hard to count. Really pray that I may have a transformation in my life. Many times, i think of the things I had, has or have been doing, I though : 'hey i could have done it in another better way' but most of the time i didn't. And in the end missed the opportunity to live as a proper christian. It marks the start of manhood, I hope i can grow up to be the real man, a man like Jesus.Blameless and upright. That would be my wish above all. Secondly i wish for wisdom, Really want to be smart in tackling things sometimes, and even in academics, knowing how to juggle my messy life properly. Wisdom and godliness. I pray that God answers my prayers.. Stupid at 12:41 AM
Saturday, October 31, 2009 Its been a long time since i've blogged.. Yesterday I had my 21st birthday party and I really thank God for it, get to see all my friends, they came and really showered their love and care for me. Really felt grateful and thankful. However today, right now, i feel very emo now.. Remembering that I have to get to school on monday.. Then also all my grades aren't really high flying, failed maths quiz, programming just passed, and my phy i spending half the time reading the text book and still dun get the concept.. Felt so helpless and crying doesn't help.. To make things worse, i think i am a terrible boyfren, didnt even really make my girl happy today, in fact, harmed her quite a few times unintentionally, only can slap myself and say that i am stupid stupid, and yup im ballooning, growing into a fat bub. Wens is slimming down which give him more opportunity to suan me and stuff.. I give up le, being fat cause me to be more stupid, foolish and being idiotic. Sigh.. have no idea what am i turning into as i enter adult hood. Gotta pray more and ask God whats wrong with my life.. I think my prayer life is really unhealthy, and my relationship check up have been procrastinating.. Argh.. Feel so many things to dom and can never complete one. sick and sian, just want to end everything once and for all.. hope i have a better post next time. Stupid at 11:20 PM
Thursday, August 06, 2009 What I'm feeling inside? A hinge of Jealousy A fear of uncertainty An avarice of getting ahead. Facing some insecurities issue when school starts.. Lord help me.. Stupid at 10:23 PM
