through the past week

humbling life lesson learnt...

"because the LORD disciplines those he loves,
as a father the son he delights in." - Proverbs 3:12

living for God

what if i dont measure up to man's expectation?
it is actually God that i am living for and it is God whom i will have to give account for and not man.

light

for in Him there is no darkness..

moving on with the truth

He is the way, the truth and the life...

living water

daily we drink water to quench our thirst
it is crucial for us to live

Jesus is the living water
we need God everyday
just like how we need water everyday to survive
the moment we believe, repent and pray for Jesus to be our personal Lord and savior
we have ongoing life, eternal life
because from that moment on we are filled with the Holy Spirit

in a hot and dreadful day
without water we will thirst and soon die
even in a pleasant day
we need water to live

without Jesus we are dead spiritually
with Jesus we are alive

'On the last and greatest day of the festival,
Jesus stood and said in a loud voice,
“Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.
Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said,
rivers of living water will flow from within them.”
By this he meant the Spirit,
whom those who believed in him were later to receive..'
- John 7:37-39

in these open seas

"The wind is strong and the water's deep
but I'm not alone here in these open seas
Cause Your love never fails

You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There maybe pain in the night but joy comes in the morning
And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid

Because I know that You love me
Your love never fails"

was a good morning service at c3 bondi church

the assurance

all the time, God is good

let the praises rings

from all who have tasted

His goodness

He holds my hand

He walks beside me

He guides me

He never leave me

in Him, i am secure

He is with me

all the time

the days

He give, and He also take away

every moment is precious

what i have now, i might lose it tomorrow

i will never know of the uncertainty

but after all nothing is more precious than You

because when everything is stripped away,

i am glad that

i know You, i have You

i am Yours, and You call me child,

i call you Father

and that You will be with me till eternity

heavenly Father, calm me down...

You are the everlasting God

You know what is good for me

and i'll trust in You

"all my delight is in You Lord,

all of my hope, all of my strength"

halt

it all went too fast

and i did not aware

of what i have been doing

and of the destruction

it could have given me

awaken

by His still small voice

i gotta stop

stop all the chasing.....

just let go

He will take care of them all

"There is a way that seems right to a man,

but in the end it leads to death." - Proverbs 14:12

one

i got to say that it was a tough week for me

but God was with me,

love, joy n peace was always there

though i may fail at times, but i know

it is for good, by remaining in Him

He makes all things right again

i just want to be always glued to Him

just being in oneness with God

"that all of them may be one, Father,

just as you are in me and I am in you.

May they also be in us so that the world

may believe that you have sent me."

John 17:21

majestic

victory forever !

my heart sing praises to You

my lips will ever praise You

my God is sovereign

there is lasting joy

remaining in Him

altogether You are able

i am able because He is able

apart from Him, i can do nothing

He is everlasting

here with me

God of all wisdom

He created the heavens and the earth

in Him, i breathe and move

though i am young in Christ

but God, the ancient One

lives in me

"And I will ask the Father,

and he will give you another Counselor

to be with you forever—

the Spirit of truth.

The world cannot accept him,

because it neither sees him

nor knows him.

But you know him,

for he lives with you

and will be in you." John 14:16-17

i'm alive

You can make me whole

renew

today

not the same

as yesterday

tomorrow

not the same

as today

my Father is the gardener

each one of us have our own weaknesses

and i have come to discover abt my weaknesses

BUT God told me, not to be let down by it

instead work on wat i'm good at

and multiply fruits

indeed this is good, and encouraging

John 15:2 says,

"He cuts off every branch in me

that bears no fruit,

while every branch that does bear fruit,

he prunes,

so that it will be even more fruitful."

hidden sins

one day, i decided to wash my car

after i got back from work

i was racing against time coz it was

getting darker n darker

and then i realized

that dirt can only be seen in light

and dirt is easily spotted and cleansed in light

when it is in darkness, yes i could still wash but

tat part was not thoroughly cleansed

because i couldn't see where the dirt was

Jesus is my light,

in His lightness,

i am revealed of the spots

that i need to deal with and be cleansed

everyday He points out to me the place

where i need cleansing and healing

"Light has come into the world,

but men loved darkness instead of light

because their deeds were evil.

Everyone who does evil hates the light,

and will not come into the light

for fear that his deeds will be exposed."

-John 3:19-20

"I have come into the world as a light,

so that no one who believes in me

should stay in darkness." John 12:46

His presence

went to penang house of prayer

for the first time last night

it was a night of intimacy with Him

just me and God

i know that His plan for me is good

i know He is calling me to strip away

everything that is blocking me from fixing

my focus unto Him

just abiding in Him

in His presence

He is always drawing me to Him

telling me who i am again

He cares for me, i know that

and i am going back to Him

always know,

God is in control

flawless is He

all the mistakes that i've made

many times

He is always gracious to reveal them to me

pondering upon it

how can i not aware what i was doing

that was really something i shouldn't have done

i shall remember not to do it again =)

we need each other

we ought to love each other

with forgiveness comes reconciliation

chainless

we are free to run

we are free to live for You

restoration

He told me not to worry

He has sent His Son to set me free

and He is concern about me

He wants me to be whole

He will make me whole

"Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand,

that he may lift you up in due time.

Cast all your anxiety on him because

He cares for you." - 1 Peter 6-7
