God's Child
Let me tell you who you are. In fact, let's proclaim that we are:-
We are an heir of God and a co-heir with Christ (Rom 8:17)
We are eternal like an angel (Luke 20:36)
We have a crown that will last forever (1 Cor 9:25)
We are a holy priest (1 Pet 2:5), a treasured possession (Exod 19:5)
But more that any of this above - more significant than any title or position - is the simple fact that we are God's child....
"We are really His children"
As a result, if something is important to us, it's important to God.

God Spoke to Me!!!!
I really want to thank God since last Sun had been very discourage in many things happy in my life which i think it should had happen. Had an argument with some people over a small misunderstanding and was totally disturbed by it so badly even when I went back to work on Mon couldn't get over the misunderstanding which happen last night was extremely disturbed about it even till Tues night.
I was encouraged by someone to read the book title "The Bait of Satan" which i bought a week ago which had been lying in my bag untouched, so i decided to read that book and now I am in Chapter 4, before I read the book I always pray and ask God to give me wisdom and speak to me & as i continue reading the book God had really spoken into my heart on forgiveness and now everything is back to normal as usual.
I really thank God for speaking to heart and all those people who encouraged me during this moment, specially thanks to Kiat, Lester, Audrey and many more.

Doing What's Right
You get impatient with your own life, trying to master a habit or control a sin-and in your frustration begin to wonder where the power of God is. Be patient. God is using today's difficulties to strengthen you for tomorrow. He is equipping you. The God who makes things grow will help you bear fruits.
Dwell on the fact that God lives within you. Think about the power that gives you life. The realization that God is dwelling within you may change the places you want to go and the things you want to do.
Do whatever is right, whatever comes down the path, whatever problems and dilemmas you face-just do what's right. Maybe no one else is doing what's right, but you do what's right. You be honest. You take a stand. You be true. After all, regardless of what you do. God does what is right: He saves you with His grace.

God's Protection Over Singapore
I was in the office this morning during some paper works and all the sudden my chair which i was seating in started to shake and i thought that I was literally shaking the chair, then one of my colleague told me that the building is shaking & I was wondering how can the building shake all of sudden and heard form people that there was an earthquake in Sumatra and many places were affected.
In a minute I saw the rest of my colleagues taking their bag and running down as they were running so i decided to follow them leaving my computer on and my bag in the office.
At that was noon time and my boss said all to come to the office at 2pm, when he said was wondering what am I going to do for lunch for 2hrs and thank God Kiat called me and asked me do I want to meet him for lunch & I said can as I got nothing much to go for 2hrs and so we decided to meet for lunch at 12.40pm at Bugis.
Have lunch with Kiat at Bugis Village and then went Bugis Junction as he wanted to buy something and we split from there.
At 2pm went to the office and as i put my butt on the chair there was another shake and have to run down of the building and in half an hour times when back to the office and started work as normal.
Thank God for protecting Singapore

Listen For HIs Voice
There's never a time during which Jesus is not speaking. There is a never a place in which Jesus is not present. There is never a room so dark . . . a lounge so sensual . . . an office so sophisticated . . . that the ever-present, ever-pursuing, relentlessly tender Friend is not there, tapping gently on the doors of our hearts waiting to be invited in.
Few hear His voice. Fewer still open the door. But never interpret our numbness as His absence. For a midst the fleeting promises of pleasure is the timeless promise of His presence. "Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age (Matt 28:20)
There is no chorus so loud that the voice of God cannot be heard . . . if we will but listen

Beyond Imagination
Rest of this earth is false rest. Beware of those who urge you to find happiness here, won't find it. Guard against the false physicians who promise that joy is only a diet away, a marriage away, a job away or a transfer away . . .
Imagine a perfect world. Whatever that means to you, imagine it. Does that mean peace? Then envision absolute tranquility. Does a perfect world imply joy? Then create your highest happiness. Will a perfect world have love? If so, ponder a place where love has no bounds. Whatever heaven means to you, imagine it. Get it firmly fixed in your mind . . .
And then smile as the Father reminds you,"No one has ever imagined what God has prepared for those who love Him . . .
When it comes to describing heaven, we are all happy failures

Preparing The Heart
Confession does for the soul what preparing the land does for the field. Before the farmer sows the seed he works the acreage, removing the rocks and pulling the stumps. He knows the seed grows better if the land is prepared. Confession is the act if inviting God to walk the acreage of our hearts. "There is a rock of greed over here Father, I can't budge it. And that tree of guilt near the fence? Its roots are long and deep. And may I show you some dry soil, too crusty for seed?" God's seed grow better if the soil of the heart is cleared.
And so the Father and the Son walk the field together; digging and pulling, preparing the heart for fruit. Confession invites the Father to work the soil of the soul.

God Where Are You
God where are You when I need You the most.....
Was wondering is God with me when i need Him the most in my life. What is happening i really don't understand but God do understand? Why am I thinking that things are becoming so negative in my life when things should be positive in my life or am i imagining negative thoughts.
Lately so many things happening in my life which is seem not the right and which should not be happening. Been feeling down since yesterday, am still wondering is my God with me or things are going to remain the same or going to change in my life, is my life becoming like a roller coaster ride. God where are You?????

God Is Crazy About You
There are many reasons God saves you: to bring glory to Himself, to appease His justice, to demonstrate His sovereignty. But one of the sweetest reasons God saved you is because He is fond of you. He likes having you around. He thinks you are the best thing to come down the pike in quite a while . . .
If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it, If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning. Whenever you want to talk, hell listen. He can live anywhere in the universe, and He choose your heart

The Cost of His Gift
Christ came to earth for one reason: to give His life as a ransom for you, for me, for all of us. He sacrificed Himself to give us a second chance. He would have gone to any lengths to do so. And He did. He went to the cross, where man's utter despair collided with God's unbending grace. And in that moment when God's great gift was complete, the compassionate Christ showed the world the cost of His gift . . .
He who was perfect gave the perfect record to us, and our imperfect record was given to Him . . . As a result, God's holiness is honored and his children are forgiven

Sole Provider, Sole Comforter
As long as Jesus is one of many options, he is no option.
As long as you can carry your burdens alone, you don't need a burden bearer. As long as your situation brings you no grief, you will receive no comfort. And as long as you can take Him or leave Him, you might as well as leave Him, because He won't be taken half-heartedly.
But when you mourn, when you get to the point sorrow for your sins, when you admit that you have no other option but to cast all your cares on Him, and when there us truly no other name that you can call, then cast all you cares on Him, for He is waiting in the midst of the storm.

God's Help is Near
Faith is the belief that God is real and that God is good . . . It is a choice to believe that the one who made it all hasn't left it all and that he still sends light into the shadows and responds to gestures of faith . . .
Faith is the belief that God will do what is right. God says the more hopeless your circumstances, the more likely, your salvation. The greater your cares, the more genuine your prayers. The darker room, the greatest need for light. God's help is near and always available, but it is only given to those who seek it.
