Yes, No, Maybe, I don't Know?

Decisions decisions decisions...
How do we discern?
Whether it will bring celebrations,
Or whether it will build up more tension?
Not that doing right is not the concern,
But how to know if it is the right decision?

God's word, prayer and intercession.
Wise counsel, rationality and conscience.
Try having a heart of obedience.
Peace, some say, is the confirmation,
That right it is, the decision.

Live with the consequences.
If necessary, try to make amendments.
Bitter or sweet the experience,
It's all a process of learning to listen,
To that still small voice in the midst of confusion.

Hold fast to the assurance, that,
In their hearts humans plan their course,
But the LORD establishes their steps.
The Lord makes firm the steps
Of the one who delights in him;
Though he may stumble, he will not fall,
For the Lord upholds him with his hand.

20/11/2011

'Cling to the miracle of grace. Grace is the unmerited favor and mercy of God. Everyday there's a fresh supply, and it is sufficient to keep you moving forward, seeking to live for the Lord.'

Tomorrow is a new day, and His mercies are new every morning. Thank You Lord

'Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22, 23 NIV)'

happy birthday

Along the way, we meet all sorts of people. people we can or can't get along with, people we say hi and bye to, people who cares for us just the way we are without seeking selfish benefits out of it.

I thank God, that,
I have life
when I fall, there's someone to help me up
in difficult times, someone speaks wisdom into the situation
when I rejoice, someone rejoices even more with me
before I speak, someone knows what I have in mind
someone knows me inside out
someone is capable of loving me and disciplines me
someone cares for me with so much sincerity
someone always points me to God

I thank God, that I get to know this someone, besides Him, who loves me the way I am, and teaches me things others wouldn't teach me. I truly love this someone, and I thank God for this angel He sent to me. May your life be filled with joy and blessings abundantly from above, with peace and health hence forth. Happy birthday, mum!!=D

check it out

it's not you that speak, but it is God that speaks within you.
starting point in all you do: you are a child of God, you have come to experience this love, and you are to make a difference. first a child of God, then a daughter, sister, cousin, friend, student, engineer, teacher, doctor, business person etc.
check it out, where do you stand with God?
check it out, why're you doing wat you're doing?
check it out, where're your eyes fixed upon?
check it out, what're the essentials and what're mere distractions?
check it out, who're you trying to please? God or man?
check it out, have you given thanks for all answered prayers, all the promises He's fulfilled?
may we be reminded who we are in Him and what is expected of us. blessed week ahead!!

slave

slave, so humble some might take him as a possession (as 'it')
the only reason for existence is his master
the only purpose is to please and serve his master
the only will he could have is the master's will
the only time to rest is when his master says so
the primary thought: 'your wish is my command'

'Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.'

'Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves. For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.'

immense humility to be a slave. given the choice, it's all worth trying to be a good one, aint it?

Thank You, Lord

One year just flied by. I thank God for all.
all that had happened,
all the shouts of joy & cries in helplessness,
all the people i came to know & the people i could know better,
all the achievements & failures,
all the happiness & sorrow,
all the laughter & tears,
all the times of growth & times i grew cold.

all in all, i thank God for who He has been, all He is, and all He'll be.
all i have and all i need, my Father, my Friend, my Encourager, my Lord, my God.
all glory & honour & praise be to my almighty God!
