The case finally closed.. Still remember the case i had mention before in last year december. My MD was went to my customer place for meeting on last mon. Guess wat? Today My customer finally agree to paid some of the changes. Praise the Lord! God answer my prayer. I really amazed by God's work. I was told my CL about this case on last sat. I shared v him that the case really cause me a lot of trouble. However, my CL had shared v me that don't take the job as a job, but treat it as minitry given by God. I agree wat he shared lor. A lot of time, we have work hard for our job to achieve our goal. Once a while, we may complaint the thing we do. But, do we really enjoy our work? Or appreciate our colleagues' help? I believe that everyone wish to be salt and light in the company. Here, i encourage you to change the way you think about your work. Perhaps you may feel bored about your work, y not seek God and ask God for help. I believe that God choose us work in our current company, He is definitely have a purpose for us. Again, i encourage you to pray and ask God about the purpose and the plan for u. So that, We can fulfills its purpose and bring glory to God.

Romans 11:36(LB)
For everything comes from God alone. Everything lives by his power, and evrything is for his glory.

JOY THE REAL ECSTASY

"Everyone is looking for joy in their lives but many are looking in the wrong places. It is only when we know the real joy-giver that we can live a joy-filled life in every circumstance."


Happiness depends on what happens. It's also comes from the old English word ‘happ’, which means “chance” & "luck". These words suggest that if things happen the way we want them to happen, then we are happy.

Joy is attitude and choose. It is inward job, it does not come because something is happening or not happening, but arises from our faith within. It is steady and lasting. This joy defeats discouragement.


C.S.Lewis defined Christian joy this way:
"Joy has to do with the deepest longings of the human heart. The satisfying of our innermost, soul’s desires. A desire that is stronger and deeper than any other longing. And when that is fulfilled – then we have joy. "

Today sermon is preach by Pastor Jeffrey. He was use Psalm 103:8-14 for the teaching. Share with you what i had learned from today sermon. Okie, be prepape and sit down & relax.. Here we go...

In our life, we use to hear from other that how God like, but does we really know who God is? It may hard for us to be honest to God because we are afraid Him may grab thing away from us. But you are totally WRONG! He is not the God you think. He is a God give to the lost (Matthew 6:9). Ps Jeffrey also mention that, "THE WAY WE RELATE WITH GOD = THE WAY WE RELATE WITH OTHER." He have shared with us 2 quality of our heavenly father Jesus told about:

1) God is an understand Father - He accepts us (v13-14)
- God is our creator. He knows our in/outside but He accepts us the way we are. Accepted was being a important part of our life. Everyone wish to be accepted by the crowd. They feel secure when others accepted the way they do thing. But, God accepts us without any term & condition. He simply accepts us the way we are. Dr Charles Horton Coolcey has quote this word:
"Your self esteem, Your self worth or image is determined to a large degree by what you think the people or the person that matters most to you think about you." Do you ask yourself the question before? How much someone willing to pay for us? How valuable you think you are? In fact, God value us. Even He willing to lay down His one and only Son, Jesus' life for us (John 6:13). God created us, He protect us, nothing can harm us without His permission (Psalm 139:13-16). A few question for you, how is your heart today? Does it centre? Are we really heart-centre? Sometime we may felt CMI (CANNOT MAKE IT) and become more frustrating. But, do you really sit down and pray to God? However, thru prayer, we find the peace and refresh.

2) God is a big hearted Father - He forgive us (v8-12)
- We feel bad when done things wrong, but God still forgive us. God does not keep a list of our sins (Isaiah 43:25). Do you know? When we keep asking God for the forgiveness in thousand time for the same thing but God has already forgive us while the 1st time we ask. God is forgiving God (Luke 23:33-34a). He forgive us completely and forgot completely those thing we have done it wrong. Keep in mind that GOD VALUE US!

Isaiah 54:10 (NIV)
10 Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken
nor my covenant of peace be removed,"
says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

GOD - I can only imagine

"A lot of people misunderstand what God is like. They may have gotten their impressions from Hollywood, their own experiences, their own imagination or what people have told them. Let us see what God is really as our Heavenly Father. "

Luke 15:11-20 (NIV)

The Parable of the Lost Son

11Jesus continued: "There was a man who had two sons. 12The younger one said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of the estate.' So he divided his property between them.
13"Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. 15So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 16He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.
17"When he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.' 20So he got up and went to his father. "But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.


What does the passage mean:
The younger son initiated the division of the estate. This showed arrogant disregard for his father's authority as head of the family. After that, he got what he had and leave the home. He was spent everything in wild living. The younger son, like many who are rebellious and immature, wanted to be free to lives as he pleased, and he had to hit bottom before he came to his senses. It often takes great sorrow and tragedy to cause people to look to the ONLY one who can help them. Are you trying like life in your own way, selfishly pushing aside any resposibility or commitment that gets in your way? Stop and look before you hit bottom. However, in the passage, the father watched and waited. As a Father, he wish his younger son will back home soon. He was ready to welcome his younger son if he returned. In the same way, God's love is constant and patient and welcoming. He will search for us and givee us opportunities to respond, but he will not force us to come to him. Like the Father in the passage, God waits patiently for us to come to our senses. God's greater love reaches out and finds sinners no matter why and how they got lost. Sometime, it may hard for us to forgive people who hurt us before or done the mistake before. In the passage, the father forgive his younger son because he was filled with love. Like Jesus Christ, he died on the cross for our sins because He love us. Don't let anything keep you from forgiving others. If you are refusing to forgive people, you are missing a wonderful opportunity to experience joy and share it with others.

Make your joy grow: forgive somebody who has hurt you.

Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT)
11For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

耶 利 米 書 29:11 (Chinese Union Version (Simplified))

My heart is captivated Lord, by You alone
captured by the awesomeness of You alone
melted by the grace and mercy You have shown
I stand in wonder

I reach to you the one who make the blind eyes see
who breaks the chains of sickness with authority
restoring of what was broken
so it may fly again

I live to worship you
I breathe to worship to you
all of my days, your face I'll seek
For as I worship you
You lead me to that place
To that place of divine exchange

I was been Melaka for 1 day 1 nite church camp. It was very fun and memorable days for me even thought i only stay there 1 day. I really want thanks God for my cg member for your power prayer for me. And also those who pray for me. Actually i was having last exam on fri nite, i almost to gave up on wrote down answer while exam. But Holy Spririt was reminded me that those who praying for me. How can i give up so easily? In the end, i still done my best for the exam.

During the camp, Lay Hong was shared v me those things i had miss. In the nite, we all have gathered in my UL's room. My heart was melt by the sharing. My tears was drop from my eye. I realised that "SORRY" this words is easy to write but is not easy to say. We may easily hurt a person thru a word or action, but due to ours pride, we do not take the 1st step and say "SORRY". Thru this camp, i saw how God softer people's heart. They were really put down their pride, sincerely to appologize to those who may hurt and the job their may not done it well. God understand us and know our feel. He simply want a humble servant to serve him. Not because they have to, is because they want to. Just a willing heart.

On next day morning, we all gathered at my CL's room for QT. After reading the verses, my CL was started sharing. Suddenly, a few tears drop from my CL's eye. He was crying. We were shocked. He was sharing with us that how he felt since he started leading this cg. Guess what, most of gals (incl. me) were started tears drop while my CL sharing. My CL is someone who truly love God and trust in God leading. I had know him nearly 5 years. I has seen how God use him and help him thru in the bad time. I really inspired by his strong faith in God. He is blessed child in Christ, i think. After my CL sharing, was our turn to affirm him. He was make cry by us again. : p

I realised that it is no easy be a SDL,UL or CL etc. It's need made an effort to take care and pray for your people, so call members lar. Love their people as Jesus love them. By God's love and grace, those who take care of God's sheep was become more strong. I really appreacite for their love and care. I also want thanks my cg people. We have shared the fun, joy and also the bad time together. And our 1st time cries together too. Without your guys prayer and support, i do not think that i still be a God lover child. I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

(Jay) 海平面远方开始阴霾 悲伤要怎么平静纯白
我的脸上 始终挟带 一抹浅浅的无奈

(Lara) 你用唇语说你要离开 (心不在)

(合) 那难过无声慢了下来 汹涌潮水 你听明白 不是浪而是泪海

(合) 转身离开 (你有话说不出来) 分手说不出来
海鸟跟鱼相爱 只是一场意外
我们的爱 (给的爱) 差异一直存在 (回不来)
风中尘埃 (等待) 竟累计成伤害

(合) 转身离开 (分手说不出来) 分手说不出来
蔚蓝的珊瑚海 错过瞬间苍白
当初彼此 (你我都) 不够成熟坦白 (不应该)
热情不再 (你的) 笑容勉强不来
爱深埋珊瑚海

(Jay) 毁坏的沙雕如何重来 有裂痕的爱怎么重盖
只是一切 结束太快 你说你无法释怀

(Lara) 贝壳里隐藏什么期待 (等花儿开)

(合) 我们也已经无心再猜 面向海风 咸咸的爱 尝不出还有未来

(合) 转身离开 (你有话说不出来) 分手说不出来
海鸟跟鱼相爱 只是一场意外
我们的爱 (给的爱) 差异一直存在 (回不来)
风中尘埃 (等待) 竟累计成伤害

(合) 转身离开 (分手说不出来) 分手说不出来
蔚蓝的珊瑚海 错过瞬间苍白
当初彼此 (你我都) 不够成熟坦白 (不应该)
热情不再 (你的) 笑容勉强不来
爱深埋珊瑚海
