Coming back to Malaysia brought back some good memories as well as some memories that has long been forgotten. My friends told me that I should not look back and just keep moving forward, but i find it super hard to move on. Guess i have to try and try and try my best to do that. Moving on is part of the process of growing up, i have to go through this. Friends, please keep me in prayer. Pray for the courage to step out of the past and move on. Thanks.

Wow!!

A woman came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find her 5-year old son waiting for her at the door.

SON:「Mummy, may I ask you a question?」
MUM:「Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the woman.」

SON:「Mummy, how much do you make an hour?」
MUM:「That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?」 the woman said angrily.

SON:「I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?」
MUM:「If you must know, I make $20 an hour.」

SON:「Oh..」 the little boy replied, with his head down.
SON:「Mummy, may I please borrow $5?」

The mother was furious, 「If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I don't work hard everyday for such childish frivolities.」


The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door...

The woman sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money?

After about an hour or so, the woman had calmed down, and started to think:

Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $5 and he really didn't ask for money very often.The woman went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.

「Are you asleep, son?」 She asked.
「No Mummy, I'm awake,」replied the boy.

「I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier」 said the woman. 「It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $5 you asked for.」

The little boy sat straight up, smiling. 「Oh, thank you Mummy!」he yelled.
Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills.


The woman saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.
The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his mother.

「Why do you want more money if you already have some?」 the mother grumbled.
「Because I didn't have enough, but now I do.」 the little boy replied.

「Mummy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?
Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.」

The mother was crushed. She put her arms around her little son, and she begged for his forgiveness.


It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life. We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts. Do remember to share that $20 worth of your time with someone you love ♥

MikesChair - Someone Worth Dying For (Official Music Video)

This song is so awesome. Whenever you feel like your not worth it, everything seems out of place,remember that you are a somebody in God's eyes. Will Jesus go through all this trouble and pain just to save you if you are a nobody to Him? No! He does this because He values you more than Himself. If you fall, just dust off and stand up again., You are not alone for He is with you.. :D

You are Beautiful!! :D

Hey ladies, this is what God has put into my mind. Something that I am still struggling sometimes. I felt Him saying to me that I do not need a mirror to prove that you are beautiful. You are beautiful cause He had made you so. Women has been striving to look the best, to dress the best, because they want the mirror to tell them that they are pretty. Let me break it down for you, mirror can be the people around you, the people that you are trying to please. But, God says, we are perfect in His eyes and we don't really have to change our physical appearance to attract someone or do things that is not good for ourselves. He is the only one that we have to please, if He says we are beautiful in His eyes, then we are. :D

Ladies we have to understand our identity in Christ. There's no wrong in wanting to look pretty but the purpose behind that is what matters. If our heart is wrong, there will be no peace and joy that comes out from that. Therefore, we have to set our hearts right. True beauty comes from the spirit. We can have the best dress in the world and we do not look pretty because beauty irradiates from the inner being. To become beautiful is to have a righteous and loving spirit.

Love,

Bernice

Voice of Truth lyrics - CASTING CROWNS

Came across this song today. I have been debating in myself for quite some time. This song really spoke to me. It's challenging me whether which voice I am listening to. The voice of the earth or the voice of truth which is the word of God. I hope this song will encourage you guys that the only voice that is worth listening to is the voice of God. He alone knows it all. Stop listening to what the enemy is whispering in your ear. They are voices that bring destruction. Therefore, we have to learn to identify His voice. :D

Cheers.

Let it go - Tenth Avenue North

I've been holding on so tight
Look at these knuckles
They've gone white
I'm fighting for who I wanna be
I'm just trying to find security

But You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one to lose control
You say you will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go.

Well it's hard enough to hear
Harder still, to move beyond this fear
We know there's nothing I can bring,
So tell me what do you want from me?

But You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one to lose control
You say You will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go, You say let it go

What do I love?
What do I hate?
What will I lose?
What will I gain?
How do I save my soul?
What if I bend?
What if I break?
What will it cost?
What will it take?
For you to save my soul.

You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one to lose control
You say You will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul

You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one to lose control
You say you will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul
You say let it go, You say let it go

DON'T WORRY! EVERYTHING IS SETTLED!!

1. Worrying Accomplishes Absolutely Nothing.

Matthew 6:27-29
Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don't work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. (NLT)

2. Worrying is Not Good for You.

Worrying is destructive to us in many ways. It becomes a mental burden that can even cause us to grow physically sick.

Proverbs 12:25
Worry weighs a person down; an encouraging word cheers a person up. (NLT)

3. Worrying is the Opposite of Trusting God.

.Matthew 6:30
And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?(NLT)

Philippians 4:6-7
Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. (NLT)

4. Worrying Puts Your Focus in the Wrong Direction.

Matthew 6:25
That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life-whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn't life more than food, and your body more than clothing?(NLT)

Matthew 6:31-33
So don't worry about these things, saying, 'What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?' These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. (NLT)

1 Peter 5:7
Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. (NLT)

Sorry that this is a bit messy. :(

Proverbs 3

Don't Assume You Know It All

1-2 Good friend, don't forget all I've taught you; take to heart my commands.
They'll help you live a long, long time,
a long life lived full and well.

3-4 Don't lose your grip on Love and Loyalty.
Tie them around your neck; carve their initials on your heart.
Earn a reputation for living well
in God's eyes and the eyes of the people.

5-12 Trust God from the bottom of your heart;
don't try to figure out everything on your own.
Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;
he's the one who will keep you on track.
Don't assume that you know it all.
Run to God! Run from evil!
Your body will glow with health,
your very bones will vibrate with life!
Honor God with everything you own;
give him the first and the best.
Your barns will burst,
your wine vats will brim over.
But don't, dear friend, resent God's discipline;
don't sulk under his loving correction.
It's the child he loves that God corrects;
a father's delight is behind all this.

The Very Tree of Life

13-18 You're blessed when you meet Lady Wisdom,
when you make friends with Madame Insight.
She's worth far more than money in the bank;
her friendship is better than a big salary.
Her value exceeds all the trappings of wealth;
nothing you could wish for holds a candle to her.
With one hand she gives long life,
with the other she confers recognition.
Her manner is beautiful,
her life wonderfully complete.
She's the very Tree of Life to those who embrace her.
Hold her tight—and be blessed!

19-20 With Lady Wisdom, God formed Earth;
with Madame Insight, he raised Heaven.
They knew when to signal rivers and springs to the surface,
and dew to descend from the night skies.

Never Walk Away

21-26 Dear friend, guard Clear Thinking and Common Sense with your life;
don't for a minute lose sight of them.
They'll keep your soul alive and well,
they'll keep you fit and attractive.
You'll travel safely,
you'll neither tire nor trip.
You'll take afternoon naps without a worry,
you'll enjoy a good night's sleep.
No need to panic over alarms or surprises,
or predictions that doomsday's just around the corner,
Because God will be right there with you;
he'll keep you safe and sound.

27-29 Never walk away from someone who deserves help;
your hand is God's hand for that person.
Don't tell your neighbor "Maybe some other time"
or "Try me tomorrow"
when the money's right there in your pocket.
Don't figure ways of taking advantage of your neighbor
when he's sitting there trusting and unsuspecting.

30-32 Don't walk around with a chip on your shoulder,
always spoiling for a fight.
Don't try to be like those who shoulder their way through life.
Why be a bully?
"Why not?" you say. Because God can't stand twisted souls.
It's the straightforward who get his respect.

33-35 God's curse blights the house of the wicked,
but he blesses the home of the righteous.
He gives proud skeptics a cold shoulder,
but if you're down on your luck, he's right there to help.
Wise living gets rewarded with honor;
stupid living gets the booby prize.

Jesus Vs Satan

Jesus Vs Satan‏


One day Satan and Jesus were having a conversation.
Satan went to visit Jesus in the Garden of Eden,
and Satan came all happy and boasting. (Lk 4: 1-12; Job 1: 6-12)


'Yes, Lord, now I have everybody captive,
(well nearly everybody down there).
I set traps, I used the baits of temptation,
I know well what each one of them can't resist.
I nearly caught them all!' (I Pet 5: 8-9; Eph 6: 10-17)

'What are you going to do with them?' Jesus asked.
and He was praying to God the Father.

Satan answered 'Oh, I am going to have some fun with them!'

I'll make them divorce after they have married
so the foundation of humanity will never be able to be established
'the family' (Mt 19: 4-6; Mal 2: 16)

I will make them hate each other and abuse each other,
make them fall into alcohol and drugs without control. (Rom 13: 12-14)

I will teach them to make weapons and bombs,
so they kill each other

'I am really going to have fun!'

'And when you are tired of playing with them, what will you do?'
Jesus asked. And continued praying

'Oh, I will kill them all and their souls will be mine forever'
'Lord by all respect, it's their decision' (I Jn 3: 8-10)

'How much do you want for all of them?' Jesus asked.

'Oh, you can't want these people. They aren't anything good.
Why do you want them if they neither follow you nor love you?
Many hate you! I have seen many of them spitting on you, cursing you and even denying you.'

'What's more, they love me a lot' (Mt 24: 10-13)

'You don't want these people!!'

'How much?' Jesus asked again

Satan looked at him with a nasty face

'All your tears and all your blood,
all the pain of the entire world, all together' (Is 53: 4-10; I Pet 2: 24)

Jesus said...'DONE' (He died on the cross and he bore all our sins)

'and He paid the price' (II Cor 5: 21)

How terrible it is that people don't seek for God,
and then ask themselves why the world is going to hell!


How terrible that we seek the newspaper everyday to read tragedies
and we never seek the Bible

How insensible it is how everybody wants to go to heaven,
thinking they can get there without having to believe,
without loving God above all things,
or doing what the Bible says...the Laws of God.

It is terrible how some people can say 'I believe in God'
but still follow Satan (Who as matter of fact, does fear God)
(II Tim 4: 3-4; II Jn 1: 7-11)

Don't you think it's pathetic how they send
each other thousands of jokes by email,
so they spread like plagues.

But when it's about the Lord's messages,
we think about it twice before we share them;
and we leave the mailboxes of our friends without this message


Don't you think it is outrageous that the obscene,
vulgar and crude is allowed freely to pass through the internet
that even many people would desire to get into the screen.

But it is forbidden to speak publicly about Jesus
in the schools, places of work
self-helping groups, etc... (Acts 4: 19-20)

Even after knowing what He did for us.
Because the Romans didn't kill Him. It was our sin.
that we may be forgiven
and know Him in His glory with the Father.

Doesn't it seem incredible to you how somebody can be alight
on Sabbath in the Church,
worshipping and thanking the Lord for His mercy,
for one more day to live etc.

But during the rest of the week he is an invisible Christian! (II Tim 3: 1-5; Rom 10: 9-13)

Does this seem just to you?

Don't let Satan stop you sending this Mail
to all your contacts on the Web,
It doesn't matter if he tells you that many don't believe this
Don't let him get through with his plans!

Stop worrying what the others may think about you
It is time to worry about what 'God thinks about you'

Please brother and sister, pass it on?
'I already did it'

May God bless you always (II Cor 13: 13)

By Your Side - Tenth Avenue North

BY YOUR SIDE

This is a song by Tenth Avenue North. I believe this is what our Father in Heaven is telling us. It has touched my heart and i believe that it will touch yours too.

By Your Side

Why are you striving these days
Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away

Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run

And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you

Look at these hands and my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life

Cause I, I love you
I want you to know
That I, I love you
I'll never let you go

A Whole New Episode

It has been about half a year since i updated my blog. I can't believe I am a university student already!! How fast time flies. University lifestyle is way different from foundation studies and high school. If you are not independent in your studies, you will be left behind especially in the course that I am doing now. The lecturers are not going to spoon feed you. The lectures notes they give us is like 60% of the whole topic. The rest we have to go online tutorials of read some other resources.

It's a big challenge for me. I am the kind of person who do things at the eleventh hour, and I don't think i can survive this 3 years with that kind of attitude. I have to be more proactive in my studies (eg. pre-read lecture notes, listen to the audio recordings over and over again, pay attention during lectures). My oh my!!! This is super hard for me and it means i have to cut down my movie hours, sleeping hours and day dreaming hours. :D

Oh well, I guess i have to really focus this year. I don't wanna waste my parent's money and my time. Jia You!!!! and to all my friends out there who share the same experience, let's support each other so that we can have a peaceful university life!!!!!! :D
