i may not, but he surely will.
Romans 10:9That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.it is a sore to my naked eye when i see font that are horredously big. A fine example will be the one that i'm currently using. For cow sake, i do not comprehend what is going on with this system. Still, i will not let this little barrier restrict my momentum in writing this little post. That was the verse that resounded within the walls of my brain while i was travelling home on the bus with a friend of mine. The verse clearly states that if we confess and BELIEVE in our hearts that if Jesus is our LORD and SAVIOUR then we will be saved. Yes, as easy as it sounds, but many times we do not live our life as if Jesus is the Lord and Saviour of our lives. Simply put, calling him saviour is much easier than a lord, isn't it? Or should i say that calling beliving that he's our saviour and lord in our hearts is easier said that done?Many times, we acknowledge Jesus as our saviour in our minds, yet we do not truly believe it in our hearts. Our belief will be manisfested through our actions. However, sometimes we do not even live our this belief that Jesus is our saviour. Take for example, after we have sinned, then we asked God for forgiveness. It does not stop there, after awhile later, we reanact the whole scene of forgivenss again. We felt that God has not forgiven us. The fact that Jesus died on the cross showed that he has forgiven us when we ask him too. But we live our lives as if he is no saviour and forgiver at all.Next, is Jesus truly the Lord of our lives?Are there still areas that we are still holding on? Come on, let's face it. Obedience is not an easy thing to do, surely it will take a little from you. If not, it's just called convience. When was the last time your truly obeyed? Let Jesus be the Lord of our lives. :)hoegarden

BACK HERE.
it's been awhile since i last typed an entry in this blog. the adrenalin within me gives me the sudden burst of energy to type a post. there are so many things in my mind now, and i am contemplating on what to type. lol.alright, i shall start off with my life in cjc.education in singapore is a system filled with different stages, and junior college education is the penultimate to it's end point. indeed, this is one period of my life which i truly delight in despite the hectic workload and the taxing odac. speaking of odac, this is one cca in cjc that never fails to start early and end the latest. The level of committment that each individual has to give is tremendous. Infact, cca is not just on wednesday and friday but everyday. We have to do morning runs on monday, tuesday and thursady. If this does not seems bad enough, on training days, we still run. Running long distances is inevitable in ODAC. I prefer the physical to the knowledge components in ODAC. :) the reason why i join ODAC can be boiled down to two reasons. Firstly, i love running long distances. Secondly, my first three months IG mates are also in ODAC. Nowadays, going to school is something that i look forward too. Well, it is not because of those humdrum lecturers but my friends. :) Hopping around each other classes during breaks, and crashing into their tutorials untill their tutor finds out makes my day. Though most of us are in different classes, the sense of anticipation to meet each other never seemed to cease. indeed, all these friends are a blessing from God to my life.i met up with melvin today after ODAC dinner, and he made a comment that spur me to think for awhile.'True christians are those who pray after their race.'
Think about it. Most of us pray before our race and ask God for his grace and power, but how many of us thank God for all circumstances after the race. Sometimes, we even turned sulky against God for not helping us. It still boils down to the fact about being grateful to God about all circumstances in our lives. Therefore, God i want to thank you for being patient with me and those wonderful friends you have given to me. :) Help me to keep a heart that is always soft before you. :) thank you.God has always been faithful to me even in this new ministry he has given to me in Far North. Though i'm in this new land for merely a month, i have seen God's moving in the people's heart and spirit. We are beginning to see greater revival happening. Lives are going in the process of transformation to be more like Jesus. My passion has never died out despite i have been planted into this land.1- It is normal to grow. I cannot accomdate to the fact that the it's okay when the group is not growing both in quality and quantity. 2- Give something that i cannot keep to gain back something eternal.3- People matter to God4- Brother's ministry must grow. God created Adam then Eve, not the other way. Don't you feel a sense of injustice when everyone around in church are females? For goodness sake, the church is not meant for sisters only. Let's build the church of God5- I do not care about your leadership position, but what i care most is about your walk with God. 6- God knows my capabilites and he will give me according to what i can hold. Thus, i will not complain about the number of sheep i have. For i know he will provide me with the strength. i almost killed myself while doing physics awhile ago. I hate dynamics. God, help me! =) haha. i shall get some sleep now. davidhoe
