saw this in crosswalk.. very apt for me, esp since im always busy..

To stay spiritually minded during the holidays, we need to keep our eyes focused on the Lord and include Him in our thoughts. Instead of talking to ourselves, we need to start talking to Him and then give Him the time to talk back. The enemy will use every scheme he can against us to distract us from maintaining a walk with the Lord. It has been said, "If the devil cannot make you bad, he will make you busy." To combat the temptations to over commit in your time and finances, we must stay in the Word of God to renew our minds and to surrender to His will over our natural-born desires. Through the Holy Spirit, we can overcome and live a life pleasing to God that brings peace in the midst of chaos.

My father frequently said, "When your output exceeds your intake, your upkeep is your downfall." It is too easy to fall down in the holiday seasons. Joy to the world begins with each of us individually. Joy cannot come without the conscious awareness of the Lord's promised presence wherever we go and whatever we do. By allowing our thoughts to think about God in the daily routines of life, we allow the Lord to have the ability to move through our actions. Only then can we truly maintain the Spirit of Christmas and sing the song, "Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me."

It's all about Him

cell had great attendance today... looks like thurs is a good day ..

today's cell is on moses debating with God at the bush fire incident.. spoke to me today. I really feel inadequate to lead the cell next year.. i'm not doing fantastic spirtually this year, im no longer sensitive to ppl.. have i lost my compassion cos i lost my passion for Christ?

Im doubting my ability.. i can crap but to speak words that edify ppl in christ i doubt myself.. i can't lead events and i dont meet ppl up enough... but i guess today God says, it's not about you. it's about Him all along, it's about what He can do.. i guess i'm like moses, still have to ask him for His name and nature.. His power...

aye.. really pray i can rely on him and focus more of what He can do.

It's never about me, it's always about Him. .....

Updates

finally fingers start working again.. =)

Bali was nice.. wish i brought my mum though... i should remember to put down my itinearay one day lest i froget.. but today lazy :P


seems recently been more distrubed, but God says im not reaady. and all i wanna do is focus on Him and buildup my spritual life. To focus on God and rmembre Him in everything i do.

Should speak words that edify others only and words are important even God says so and i really need to have my life show and glorify HIm.

but it's not easy though. God give me the strength and build up my faith.

Bintan, SGH, Tragedy

Back from Bintan! i have to say this trip is unexpectedly pretty good. it's smaller gp this time and i say we really bonded more this trip esp in the unexpected fantastic prayer and worship session.. God is amazing and good! Good to go there again and know them more again.. going back in dec for their christmas celebrations..

WIll update about this in our cell blog! benson's birthday up next!

Cell prayed for Zi peh..really appreciate it.. i went SGH with family the moment i land back from bintan.. he is so pessimistic.. and really pray very hard he will make it this round................. so heartbreaking to see a goood man like him reduced to his current state..

Another heartbreak thing.. came back and heard from Bro in law of YET another family tragedy.. besides the list below that already disturbs me, a father because of loan shark debts, set the house on fire to burn his kids to death and then went on to jump down to his death from his flat.... oh manz.. what's going on in the world today..

Finally .. the change is done. an end to the current and a new beginning.. a way that God has paved. Pray He guide me in the path ahead.

Lament

i'm not a hunter, patience is not my strength.
I simply can't sit still ......and wait........
And the waiting is driving me hair pulling crazy
but yet i got to keep my cool
I felt like i'm being pulled in both directions
can't go fwd and i dont feel like going backwards

________________________________________________

so sad.. so many family tragedies.. recently

first it was the mother who jumped to death in front of the family when the father had an affair. then it was the father who raped the daughter, earlier on was the father attacking the wife in front of the son with parang, another one the mother killed the autistic son, then now the father threw acid killing the wife and blinding the teenage daughter.

so heart wrenching to see tragedies like that. It's not even the usual squabbles, it's pure hatred in the family, that could spill over to death and serious injury. What was meant as a safe haven and a source of love and protection became hell on earth....

I can only thank God that i got an excellent family...... my heart goes out to those in these family tragedies...
