i survived thursday!!

well, thursday ain't that bad afterall. minus the fact that its from 8am to 5pm and my lunch break is at 1pm.

i'm really starting to like EVP loads. though its programming and there's still codes to remember and stuffs, the sense of achievement when you do something yourself and when its a success is GREAT!!

who cares if its a simple program~ =P

-

sometimes, don't you just wish that there's a place where you can meet God and talk to Him face to face?

a place where its white all over and a Great Man seated on a chair with a warm smile on His face. then when you reach His seat, you realize that He's so huge, you seem so small. but when He lifts you up, you're taller then any mountains and you see countries right before you.

we're so small, yet God is able to use us so mightly.

but if we're not careful, our ego can cause us to fall from God's hand to ground zero. yes, no doubt that God would catch us. but the lesson would teach us to be humble for God honors the humble and shames the proud.

sometimes life can be extremely confusing. things happen around you and you wonder why. deaths, tsunamis, earthquakes set people asking if there's really a God, and if there's a God, why is all these happening? ain't God a loving God who loves His people?

if i had the answers to these mysteries, i would gladly reveal it. but the fact is that its written in matthew that before the second coming of Christ, there will be more quakes and deaths. so what we are going through right now, it maybe just the beginning and it maybe the last days.

things around us a rapidly changing and have you ever stopped and wondered why are you on earth? especially in Singapore, everything is so organised.

you go to school, study, graduate, work, get married and then retire. the govenment has everything planned out for you. some people are so caught in the rat race that they lose out on so many things in life they ought to know.

not just Christ, not just the Bible. but the true riches of life.

you spend as much as you earn and every month, you work towards that paycheck so that you can pay off your bills and loans given by PUB, Singtel, your Internet Service Provider, handphone bills and many more.

life is more then paying bills and chasing your tail everyday. you run in circles, get tired and worn out. but at the end of the day, you realize that you're still in the same place.

indeed, life moulds and changes you. you would say that you've changed and have been moulded by society. but is that what you really want in life?

i've always believed in simple living. but i know that simple living can be comfortable living too. living simple doesn't mean that i sleep on the floor, without aircons or i don't have a cosy home. simple living can be pampering myself and my family members everyday when we've abundance in finances.

of cause. money takes on the image of the owner, not the other way round. we do not let money control us=) so if you're a slave to money, you just work for money. but if you're not, then the money you have in your hands can be put to a good clause.

at the same time, you would have more then enough for you.

ain't God is a great God?

God is able to give us more then what we need. but does He trust us with His finances? heros of the Bible gained God's trust and they had abundance of wealth; Abraham, Jesus and Joseph. there's a lot more, but these three are the "famous" ones.

how did they gain God's trust?

just by seeking God's heart, purely, and obeying His commandments. besides that, they had an intimate relationship with God and many times, they had an encounter with Him. ain't that wonderful to have that happening in our lives?

its still possible because Jesus is from the New Testament and we're living in the New Testament! the miracles that were performed by the 12 disciples and Jesus is still working after 2000 years! the blind shall see, the lame shall walk and the crippled shall be set free!! hallelujah!!

not only that. God wants to prosper you and me. but do you want to receive His blessing, no matter how hard the journey maybe?

if i were you, i would stick onto God no matter what happens and trust Him to carry me through the valleys of death.

the truth has set me free, and its time for you to receive it too.
