beauty of the Creator..

2010-01-18T16:20:00.005+08:00

Is only about a month after school reopens and i have already been feeling stress crawling up my feet. Homeworks are pilling up on my desk, dull routines repeat itself again and again and again and again...... *sigh* BOREDOM JUST FILLS THE ENTIRE ATMOSPHERE!!

But there's still one thing for me to be glad of, i didn't sleep as much as last year already!! Hehehe..xD Yup.. i admit.. i always sleep in class.. and yeah.. i used to sleep very late(as in 3..4am ><) maybe because this year i'll be sitting for my SPM.. my body tuned itself to get tired easily.. and it made me sleep earlier(as in 12..1am =P).. haha.. i know.. i know.. that isn't very early to most people, but for some people.. like me.. can consider pretty early already... haha.. oh well.. i'm still trying(:

Today is Friday.. and school ends earlier.. (woohoo!! TGIF man!!xD).. hehe.. so i was on my way back home.. literally dragging my feet throughout the whole journey.. and then.. all of a sudden.. i catch a glimpse of AWESOMENESS as i look up at the blue sky.. indescribable feelings came rushing throughout my body and i had goosebumps.. i saw a formation of clouds that what seems to look like a ♥HEART.... light rays were penetrating it and had made it look as if it was radiating light on it's own!! Although it might seems common and ordinary to see such a phenomena, but to me.. it reflects the beauty, wonder and love of our ALMIGHTY LOVING GOD!!

As i gaze upon this beauty, i just can't stop pondering about His power and divine nature. While no one has seen the invisible God, He has chosen to be known. It is through the creation that we see the beauty of its Creator! I always find comfort and peace just by seeing and enjoying the reflection of God's beauty as He always reminded me that He cares for me.

TEENAGERS CONSTANTLY FEEL THE NEED OF GETTING INTO A RELATIONSHIP

Whenever the word, "RELATIONSHIP" pops up, the first thing that always pops up in MOST of the people's mind would be the BOY&GIRL Relationship(BGR). Ain't i right? I can prove my statement to those who doubted. I purposely change my "Relationship Status" in Facebook to see how people responds to it. Most of them do actually thought that i'm in a relationship(dating) with another girl, except for few that knew that i actually meant the RELATIONSHIP with GOD.(but they too, doubted)

Yes! It is not wrong for teenagers to have these kind of feelings. After all, it is a very normal and definite phenomena for growing up kids to experience. But the RELATIONSHIP that we actually craved for, isn't the BGR ones... but the AGAPE LOVE RELATIONSHIP... which is the one we should have with GOD.

Why do we have these kind of feelings?

As we are aging, our innocence do fades away with the years. And we started asking questions about LOVE, sense of belonging and attention. Slowly, we forget what LOVE is about and started seeking and creating LOVE according to our own convenience. God wouldn't let us get away easily! He gives us these feelings so that we could once again learn about LOVE. But unfortunately, like what i'd said before, because human tends to seek LOVE according to their own convenience and desires, they choose to take only two kinds of LOVE out of the three, which is Eros and Philia. The reason is because these two LOVEs are so much easier to practice than Agape Love.(to find out more about Agape♥, Eros♥ and Philia♥, click here!)

What makes AGAPE LOVE harder?

It is because of this LOVE that we, the world and everything that ever existed were created! Thus, AGAPE LOVE is the greatest LOVE of all! AGAPE LOVE also mean LOVING a person selflessly and without any conditions. It is these reasons that made AGAPE LOVE hard to practiced. Because it requires a LOT of sacrifices, which includes laying down ego, pride and 'face', eventually people turn to find alternative routes which don't require much sacrifices and pleases them more as they think.

But with only EROS and PHILIA, we will never find that satisfaction we want and the satisfaction we need. It is because these two LOVEs are very dependent on feelings, environment, circumstances and situation that eventually made it very subjective!

In the last post, i'd defined LOVE and also asked a question for you to ponder, "Why is LOVE the main source of most problems when LOVE is given by God and that He is LOVE?"

My answer to that question will be because God LOVE us so much so that He is not willing to create us as "robots", but instead, has given us chances to make our own decisions. When we are given chances to make our own decisions, many of us, would choose to satisfied our own needs and do everything in our own way. By doing this, we eventually turned the 2nd-best-gift that God has given to us, LOVE, into a selfish thing. (the best gift of all is His Son! =D)

p/s : The reason i made this project is neither to judge nor to pick on anyone. After all, i have no rights to judge anyone when i myself is not a perfect person. This project is made to show people the true meaning of LOVE and what is LOVE made for!! And in this project, i will be very open-minded. So i do wish that you all, readers woudn't be offended in a way or another and that you'll also be open-minded as well.

Why do i say people turn LOVE into a selfish act?

I'm going to be very honest to you all, people of the world define LOVE as satisfying-self. What do i mean by satisfying-self? In my life, i see a lot of people getting along with another person in thought of the other person would supply them with their needs and to satisfied their desires. Yes! What i am saying includes money & sex. If you don't believe me, see for yourself!! Switch on the tv. Read the newspaper. If you're still not convinced, go out to the streets and see! The world is telling us that LOVE is all about getting rich, satisfying our own needs and desires!! The true value and meaning of LOVE is gone! A lot of Christians too, had fallen to this world's lie, Satan's deception. And that's why, we Christian have to know what is the true meaning of LOVE!

What is DATING and is it bad?

I, myself is not much a fan of dating. In fact, i think dating is wrong. Why do i say it is wrong? The reason i see it not right because i see dating as a selfish act as well. Before i continue, you needed to know what is dating first. Dating is going out with a person that you most probably interested in, and that you want to spend time with him or her without any thought of life commitment, but instead, just to find fulfilment and self satisfaction from that person. You might ask, "If dating is wrong, then what should we do when we comes to finding a lifetime partner?". Well, the answer will be, "courting".

Courting basically means finding for a person that we truly LOVE so that we could spent our lifetime with that person. Till this point, i believe many of you are confused about this. But never mind, bear with me as i continue to explain to you in the next post. Do drop some comment if you have any questions. Stay tuned for Project Love~~

when's tough life and hard time to me??

well.. is when my surroundings started to quiet down.. echoes of waves came rushing into my ear... and life repeats itself everyday. Stress comes into the picture and living has losses its purpose..

is hard for me.. being the unimportant person in people's life.. always trying to be happy when i'm not.. always trying to please others but couldn't actually pleases myself.. is life made for these??

trying to be somebody is hard.. but being a nobody is harder.. so which should i choose?? Somebody(rejecting my real self)??.. or.. Nobody?? Arrghhh!!! Is harder than i thought!! What should i do?? I'm really confused.. but so what?? who cares?? no one.. not even one would care..

Many times in life, i'm caught in this situation.. drop to self-pity and found life to be meaningless.. alone.. confused.. insecure. What I'd thought is that only friends.. prestige.. popularity can fill up that emptiness in my heart and made me happy and fulfilled.. but.. i'm wrong.. for only HE can filled up that vacumn space in me..

Cause HE said, "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full"(John 10:10)

Only HE can give me this fulfilling life. The life that could brings joy, peace and security that i can never found from living the life that i'd made for myself.

In some point of my life, it may get tough but i know HIS hands is always there for me, all i have to do is just grab hold onto it and HE'll lead me through.

When i'm lonely and upset, HE is always there by my side, laying HIS loving and comforting hands on me.

I just wanna share this song to you all readers..

HOLD ON

I've been there a thousand times,

I've felt the rain like a thousand knives.

And it hurts,
I know it hurts!
I've been there like a fighter plane,
Tryin' fly my way through a hurricane.
And it's hard,
I know it's hard!

Don't be afraid,
You'll make it through,
Just call out to me and I'll come running to you!

Hold on, hold on!
When the current pulls you under,
And your heart beats like thunder.
Just give me your hand,
And hold on, hold on!
Until the storm is over,
And I'll be fighting for you.
Just give me your hand and,
Hold on!

I'll give you hope, I'll give you faith!
And if it's dark, I'll light the way,
For you, for you!
By your side, until the end,
Until you're standing tall again!
I'm here, I'll always be here.

And if the tide, sweeps you out to sea,

When your strength is gone, and it's hard to believe!

when life seems crumbling down...

i wonders what comes next..

My life's a pretty blank..

Where i'm heading is a piece of mist..

Sometimes life seems so meaningless

That i wishes i'd never been born..

Holding back myself while figuring how life works..

Carefully placing the mask that covers sorrows, hurts,

Hatreds and loves..

Through the furious storms and raging thunders,

i stand alone

Trying to catch hold onto that world i'd never knew,

But the world just passes-by..

Standing among the crowd that didn't exist,

i played as a common person who didn't care...

But what's within me is a broken heart..

i'd made chances to fly above the impossible,

But all i got is a broken wing...

Despite all these troubles..

i'm still striving..

Intro

So... i bet many of you, readers.. would be wondering.. what's all these about?? Project LOVE?? Huh?? (o.O)? Apa ni??

Well.. 'Project LOVE' is actualy the report or should i say the compilation of research, observations, and experiences from people around me(and of course not excluded mine) about LOVE.

p/s:

First of all, when i say LOVE, i dont only mean the kind of LOVE that nowadays young guys and girls always think about. I also relate it to LOVEs between husband and wife, parents and children, siblings, and last but not least BGR (boy-girl relationship).

Preface

What is LOVE?

LOVE is actualy a gift that God had given to us, humans ONLY. Other living things that God had created DO NOT have this essence. So what proves my point??

In the Bible, God said, "Let us make man in our IMAGE, in our LIKENESS, and let them rule over..." (Genesis 1:26) When God said that, He didnt literally mean it that way! God do not have similar physical features like us. What He is saying is that we are made capable to LOVE just like Him because He is LOVE. So since LOVE is a gift from God and God is LOVE.. then why does it seems to be the source of problems to most of the conflicts happening around the world..

~stay tuned with me.. while i bring you deeper into the pit of LOVE~

The Start of A Whole New Chapter...

...without Jon.. =(

My heart was really heavyburdened when suddenly something so true to me just.. poof.. gone.. well.. at least for the coming 2years..

The few weeks before he went, i was in a so called 'emo' mode. All this just happened so fast that i don't even have a chance to talk to him and spend time with him more. That, made me felt so guilty.

But the real reason i'd emo-ed wasn't because just that. I was afraid that no one would be here to accompany me when i'm down and lonely after he leaves. He is the only person that i'd trusted the most and also that i can be my true-self when i'm with him. He is the brother that i've always wanted to have!!

Now that he'd leaved, i'm slowly feeling myself shrinking back to my own comfort zone and just wanna be alone...

Take care Jon!! And God bless!!

(that's the coolest pic Jon ever took!! =D)

Okay..kay.. is time to come back from the realm of EMOness.. haha.. i'm BACK! =)

Today, the result for my interview to be part of the committee member in chapel will be announced during Chapel Committee AGM. And I almost got a heart attack when the out-going president announced that i will be the in-coming-vice-president for the chapel committee!! My reaction was like, "WHAT??!!! WHY ME??!!" Is not that i don't wanna take up such a high responsibility, is just that i felt it's really unfair for others who had already joined the committee for such a long when i'm just a new guy. Furthermore, I'd list with the reason to just to help up in little little things like ushering and stuff like that and not to say that i've commitment in To2ugh Youths as well.

Later on when the meeting is finished, i'd confronted Mrs. Eng(the advisor for chapel committee) and explained all of that. And what she said really did motivates me to continue living for Him. She said that everything is in God's plan and He had put us in where we are right now because He knows that we are capable of doing the task He'll be giving us. And she'd also shared about how she'd been placed in places where she don't thinks she is capable of doing the task and how God had did little miracles to clear the doubts.

Well, i guess if this is where He wanna place me to do His work, then i'll never got a chance to run away from it. I believe that He'll supply me with what i needed to accomplish His work.

I'm God's Original Masterpiece

I'm God's Original Masterpiece

Before you start reading the post, watch this short clip first...

Did you ever woke up one day in the morning, look into the mirror and see an insignificant, imperfect, and 'unworthy-to-be-saved' person?? I don't know about you, but I do!! So many times that my brain can't even have that much of capacity to contain them!!

Many times I'd chosen to live in MY own world and made MY own 'path', instead of living in HIS world and following HIS path that He'd planned for me. I'd always asked God that with all the authority and power you have, why can't you made me to be such and such person or to be so and so?! I'd been complaining too much about everything and demanded too much from Him.

To me, I'd always think that I'm an useless person whom nobody would care about and nobody would admire nor appreciate. But the fact is that I'm wrong!! I'm sooo wrong!! Eventhough the whole world may rejects me, He will still be there for me, guides me, leads me, encourages me, comforts me , appreciates me, and love me always!! God made me special! In fact, He made everyone of us special!! Like what it was said in that short clip, God don't made JUNK!! Everyone of us is a perfect masterpiece to Him.

We might think that we are never good enough for Him, for Him to do so much for us. But the truth is we are made good by Him. It's just up to us to decide whether we, ourselves want to be good or not. Sometimes or I can say most of the times for most of us, we always assume that the High & Mighty Him wouldn't wanna accept us because we are filthy and messed-up. However, what is true is He'd sent His Beloved Son to sacrifice the punishment that we should take and rose again on the third day just to show us that we still have a way, a chance to live and still can have a true and pure relationship with Him. It is only up to us to choose whether to want this relationship or not.

Choosing to be in this relationship doesn't mean that we'll never have to suffer pain again. Although in this relationship, the main base foundations are LOVE and GRACE. But DISCIPLINE can't be neglected as well!! He is always training us, streghthening us and building us in both spiritually and mentally through troubles, obstacles and conflicts!! And most the time He is also carving and making us to be more and more like His Son, Jesus. This is the one thing that I can always assure you, being a Christian and living in Him doesn't mean you are conflicts, troubles and obstacles free! Pain will always involve in this process whether we like it or not!!

Well, what we see and what we are right now is just a small part of the BIG picture that God is painting. And when the picture is finished, it will be more beautiful than any other paintings that had been painted in this world.

And God will call this,

"My own Original Masterpiece!"

A Break From My Not So Fun Holidays... (part2)

So here am I, posting the second part of yesterday... starting from where I ended...

While we were in Sweet Chat, me and Aaron shared a so called 'set lunch' kinda stuff that cost like stinging bee!! Well, at least the spaghetti is not bad and the drink is okay. But still the 'tong shui' is... Oh my dear!!!! Don't get me started with that ONE!! Me and Aaron have to force that THING down the throat... worst part of that day...

Anyway, later on all of us except Aaron went to Kajang to makan the most FAMOUS SATAY in town... is it true?? I don't know but that's just what I heard... do correct me if I'm wrong. But still, baseon my taste buds, they are really GOOD!! Especially the beef ones!!

Well, here are some pics that we took that day... enough for long essays and let the pics do the writing...

from top left: Sam, Rachel, Hannah, Joe;

lower left: Faye, Sarah

(all my best buddies!! =D)

Sarah is doing a really great job in wiping mirrors...

perhaps she could make

a career out of it next time.. xD

it was raining so heavily outside...

what a warm fellowship we had in the car..

when I say warm.. i do literally mean WARM!!

Look at the sweat droplets on my face and you'll know

how WARM do i mean... lolzx

Hannah's favourite red beans!! Haha..xP

I wonder what was I doing at that time...

leftovers from the POPCORN WAR!!

2009-06-13T00:30:00.004+08:00

A Break From My Not So Fun Holidays...(part1)

It was Friday today! As usual, I don't have much stuff to do on this particular day and since my bro said he'll be going for movies in MV today so might as well just follow. I'd missed out too much good movies already and not gonna made the same mistake again!

So this morning me and bro have to woke up pretty early at around 8am(well.. at least for me it is not really quite a good time for me to start my day off..especialy during holidays...) just to get ourselves prepared. And turned up my dad is fixing the tangki and we can't get to shower. Under desperate situation, all we can do is to fill up pails with cold water from taps. And most probably that had made us late... i guess... so we were late, but turns up we weren't the last to be there. Hehe. =D Aaron came later then after us.

The first show we watched was 'Night At The Museum 2'. Hooray!! Get to see one of my favourite comedian Ben Stiller in the show. No doubt that he is a born natural comedian!! But I would say that the 2nd 'Night At The Museum' was so much better than the 1st one. Maybe firstly because this 2nd one involves more characters than the first one and secondly, maybe is also becuase Nicole Kidman appeared in the show as well!! Well, please don't get me wrong... I'm not like crazy about her or some sort is just that the natural 'glow' she had is... is... undeniable...well... if you can understand me... Okay! Nevermind if you don't... lolzx

After the first show, we went to Burger King to have our lunch while waiting for Hannah and Faye to arrive. I ordered a Mushroon Swiss and it is... *muakx...FABULUEX!! But unfortunately, it didn't fill up my stomach. It's obviously too small its size for a person like me!! Anyway, I didn't bother too much since my wallet is running dry...

When finally everyone's here, we fought our way into the cinema hall... and not to say to get ourselves loaded as well!! Sarah, Aaron, Rachel and I had came up with an EVIL plan to start the POPCORN WAR in the cinema... firstly all we need to do is to get ourselves ammo without being noticed by our oppositon... and once we are loaded... wahahahaha..*evil laugh... we gonna go messy!! But at the end, we all change alliances and attack Aaron only.. hahaha... it was the best moment when Aaron was covered with POPCORNS!!! Hahaha... thinking about it now... I'm laughing my head off already!!! Hahaaha...

Later on, after the second movie, we went to 'yamcha' in Steven's Tea Garden(STG).. well that was what we'd planned... we change coarse to Sweet Chat when we found out that a cup of Milo Ice in STG cost more than 4 bucks!! Can you believe it?!! I was shocked when I see the price! I thought I had mislooked or something! And yea.. on the way to STG, I also bumped into YinShan. Kesian her la.. go shopping alone.. is it?? Haha.. I don't know.. that was just what I saw. =D

To be continue....

ALL FOR LOVE

He knows what lies ahead,

His life here is made for this,

He knows every little pieces that forms His jouney,

He knows what He's going to bear.

Sometimes He wishes it could be changed,

But He took up the suffering,

And do it anyway...

All for LOVE!

Walking down the nasty streets,

Carrying a heavy load of wood,

People spit on Him like an animal,

Kicks Him..

Beats Him..

But He still do it...

Do it all for LOVE!

At the peak of the hill,

Where His blood was forced out of Him,

Three nails pierced through His innocent flesh,

Suffering the pain that no words could describe;

He prayed for them,

Whom had did these to Him,

Asking for forgiveness,

Did all these out of LOVE!!

The sky darkens..

And what is Dear to Him rejects Him,

Turns away from Him,

Leaving Him bearing the suffering the world should take,

And what make Him do it...

It is all because of LOVE!!

~ALL FOR LOVE~

1cube Unity Camp!!

Some might be wandering where am I for the last three days. Well, I was in Frasers Hill. And I'm there for the reason none other than youth camp. This was the first time I work as PIC in camp. And it was definitely not easy!!

On the day of departure, I have to woke up early to get myself ready for that three days. To be honest, I didn't really do much when comes to packing my luggage bag. My mom helps me a lot in that. Haha.. lazy mah.. anyway, thanks Mom!! ><

At first I thought I was going to be late, but turn out when I reached KLBC, there were not much of people there. Haha. But the most 'paisie' thing is that I told my friends MC & ShenLer to be in KLBC earlier and turned up I'd reached there later than them. paisie..paisie.. I'd never thought that they would be so punctual... haiz... i guess I'd misjudge them..

When people starting to come, that was the time I had to start working. I have to guide people to Shalom Hall and to get them registered. And out of all this busyness, I suddenly catched a glimpse of familiarity. And when I look closer, this person wasn't the person I thought she might be. She just somehow look so much like her. And that glimpse just makes me wanders back to the time when I was acting like a complete FOOL. But that was just for a moment. I guess..... okok... confession time.. actually all the time during the camp I was actually catching glimpses of her 'accidentally'....and for your information this person I was referring wasn't my old classmate whom ALVIN KOK had put me in the same room with her!!!!.. u gotta get it from me ALVIN!!... Anyway, back to the point, every glimpse I catch from this person just makes me think more about her... oh no... I falling back to 'fantasy' again... I have to stop!!

Okok... lets go back to the story, I think I'd gone to far...haha.... I'd travelled to Frasers Hill by LayYean's car. Ps Kevin and Alvin was also in the car. At first, as usual, everyone feels so awkward... but not long after.. when everyone's warmed up.. we began chatting and sharing.. haha.. the best time ever!! =D.. Seriously speaking, I actually never thought that Ps Kevin is so not old since I heard that he'd already marrried and had a son. Anyway, he's COOL and FUN!! Do hope that we could have him as our youth pastor!! Hey don't get me wrong... is not that our current youth pastor is not cool & fun.. is just that.. having another youth pastor will be much more better especially when is a guy and is young... well you know... since we never had a young guy youth pastor before... having one will be good! =D

I'm not going to go through every detail of the activities that I'd done in the camp because it would be forever if I really started to... haha..=D.. I would just do some highlights on the interesting stuff that had happen in the camp. There's one that is interesting which is the night game. It was actually like the "Amazing Race" kinda thing where people have to race to get to the final station. I was in-charged in one of the stations. In my station, the players will have to deep their legs in an icy-water and get 15 marbles out from it..well.. that was actually what that was planned... since there were no ice... I'd replaced them with mud, sand and rocks. The muddy water didn't makes it hard to pass .. instead.. it is the time given that makes it hard. Think back I really feel bad about myself when there's a team delayed because couldn't finish on time and my station was the first station for them.... and not to say that the person was in that group... but I was proud for them because eventhough there so far away from the second last team... they still didn't give up and kept moving on.

During one of Ps Kevin's section, when he'd shared about how his life was impacted by this girl in his church whom is his wife right now, and how he is so different from what he used to be... I'd learned that how miraculous God work things out... he can change a totally hopeless brat into a person who is serving in the ministry as a youth pastor for Him. Isn't it amazing?!! I don't know how you feel about it, but I was certainly amazed and inspired!! This had actaully shows that God had a purpose in everyone's life. No matter you are a brat or not... He certainly had a great plan laid out for us... sometimes we just have to place our trust and faith in Him. And He'll definitely guide us through His great plan specially made for each and everyone of us.

My "Bumpy" Days~~

All kinds of feelings: bitter, hatred, jealousy and the sense of inferior all wrapped-up together and form a blockage in my throat, barely could breathe. I can't stand it anymore, I'll soon explode like a volcano. My heart feels no peace at all.

My mighty mountains begins to crumble and fall on me. My peaked-confidence begins to fall... fall... fall... fall into a pitched-black hole. I do not know what to do. I'm exhausted. So exhausted that I can feel every parts of my body started to disintegrate.

How good it is if the disappearance stays where it is and never reappear. My life could have been much more easier, happier and carefree.

But His' plans doesn't work according to mine. He knows what's best for me and I'll surrender all to Him. He knows what lies ahead and I don't. I know He will provides me with sufficient strength for me to stand up again. His love is the reason I live. No matter what happens I will continue to trust in Him. He is my rock and my foundation. I know at these times, He had placed me behind His back and carrying me just like He had carried the cross. Times to times I failed Him, but He still carries me through.

I know I can make it through, because "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me"(phillipians 4:13)

2009-05-01T02:02:00.003+08:00

A DAY IN THE CEMETRY!!

Whooo... eeriee...

Haha. Don't worry!! I'm not gonna tell ghost stories. xP

Today is Labour Day and me & my family have this tradition where at this special day, we have to visit my late grandma in Klang. So we have to woke up very early in the morning, i guess is around 6am... at that moment, my eyes are still half-closed... haha... so i can't really see what's the time. =P Anyway, we have our breakfast in some crowded coffee shop. At first I dont' feel like eating, but when I saw 'chicken rice' sign, my appetite just come out of no where. And I ate two bowls of rice. Haha.xP

Here we are... the cemetry... (*sigh)... why is it have to be so HOT everytime we come here?!! I can really feel my skin burning under the hot sun!! But if put it in a good way... I'm actually taking in some Vitamins... haha... (what a good reason to convince myself)

We do some cleaning-up when we reach there. And you know what?!! We actually saw a whole bunch of 'Baby Breath' flowers growing wildly near my granma's place. These 'Baby Breath' are sold at least 20 ringgits outside. And they are growing all over the place!!
Okay.. okay.. enough of talking... let me show you some pics... it explains more than words....

This song is related with the previous post...
Read the lyrics carefully, it tells us that as a body of Christ, we should reach out to share His love with people who are lost. Who lost in darkness....

IF WE ARE THE BODY
by Casting Crowns

It's crowded in worship today
As she slips in trying to fade into the faces
The girls teasing laughter is carrying farther than they know
Farther than they know

Chorus:
But if we are the body
Why aren't His arms reaching?
Why aren't His hands healing?
Why aren't His words teaching?
And if we are the body
Why aren't His feet going?
Why is His love not showing them there is a way?
There is a way

A traveler is far away from home
He sheds his coat and quietly sinks into the back row
The weight of their judgmental glances
Tells him that his chances are better out on the road

Jesus paid much too high a price
For us to pick and choose who should come
And we are the body of Christ

Jesus is the way

Note: If you wanna listen to the song, you can find it in my 'ipod nano' below. God bless! =)

"Do not judge a book by it's cover!"

We often say this sentence a lot. But do we really mean it?? I guess most of the time we don't. We always have the intention to discriminate people who are poorer, weirder, and people who don't speak much. We often tend to look down on people who are not so smart and not so pretty. In fact, sometimes we don't even realize that we actually aren't that smart, aren't that pretty after all.

You might be good in certain things but it doesn't means you HAVE IT ALL!! God created each one of us to be special. He had given us at least a talent. Therefore, each one of us will have something that is better than other people. Some may yet to found their talents, but don't worry, seek God for His' wisdom and He will show you the way

Susan Boyle is a good example of a person who lives out her dreams and talents. I don't want to spoil the whole thing. So I'll let you check-it-out yourself. Enjoy! =)

I bet when you are watching the short clip, you are partially surprise, impress, and touch. Tell me I'm right! I've been there too, I know it!

Isn't it amazed you that how God work things out?! I don't know about you, but I am! His creations are perfect and never there will be fault in it. So in everything He made, He will make sure everything is in a fair condition. You have this and he will have that. You have that and he will have this. That's how God works!

As human beings, especially Christians, we must learn to accept and to love one another as God had created each one of us to be special in His own eyes and had shown us the love He gave for us.

"Dear friends, let us love one another,
for love comes from God...."
(1 John 4:7)

TODAY WAS THE DAY I TASTED MY SUPERB SWEET 16!!

I really couldn't believe that I had already spent 16 years of my life and it just seems to me that I have just been on this earth for only a couple of hours!!

When the clock strikes 12 in the midnight, I've been receiving some messages wishing me a blessed birthday. The first person who wishes me texted this, "Yo dude, happy bday...". Although it may seems to you that this is just a simple message but it really means A LOT to me!! When I got this message from this person(whom I will never revealed), I was surprised, touched, grateful, perplexed... etc... all messed up together... my feelings are indescribable!! This person is always close yet not very close, important yet not very important to me, I know he felt the same way about me too, but still, he took the initiative to remenber my birthday and took the extra mile of moving his fingers to text me this few words when the clock strikes sharp 12 in the midnight. I will never forget this little little things that he had done for me! =)
I really wanna say a thousand TQs to people who remembered my birthday!! Especially to the person who crawled up in the middle of the night to wish me a blessed birthday! =)
And of course, not to miss out my sis who send me a birthday card all the way from US. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!

Is really been a great and "adventuruos" day for me.

Woke up in the middle of the night 3am++, sleep again.
Woke up in the morning 6am++, sleep again.
Woke up in the morning again, 9am++, then sleep again and finally fully awake in the morning 10am++.
Surf the net for a while before I went for a shower to prepare myself for tuition.
And just before I manage to shut the door behind me and start my journey to Kasturi, I only remembered that I haven't brush my teeth.
And so I went back into my house and get my teeth brushed.
Start my journey to Kasturi.
Get stuck in the fumbling cigratte smoke.(oh man, I hate this a lot!! Aren't people aware that smoking brings cancer... etc)
Started giving lectures on the causes of smoking.(in my mind)
Reached there just in time!! Hurray!! (thought I'll be late)
Grab a packet of 'Dentyne' on the way.
Also grabed a cup of 'TomYam' noodle...yummy!!!..., a can of 'BOSS', a bottle of cheap '7eleven' mineral water(I wonder how they made it?!! Man, it taste weird!!)
Met Tawfeq in Kasturi(the friendliest Mamak I ever met in my whole life).
Tuition ended...
Walk to LRT with Tawfeq, while he catch a bus on the way.
Reached home and took a good rest.
Went out to fetch my Mom from CDC with Dad.
Went to Leisure Mall after that.
Ate a good meal at "Kenny Roger's".
Watched 'Dragonball Evolution'.
Came home and blogged!!

And this is how I spent my special day! =)

ALL ALONE

Running a race of thousand miles,
Leaving unseen traces behind my steps,
In the eyes of people,
I was just an ordinary person
Or maybe not;
An extraordinary person, perhaps,
Invisible...

People passed by,
Time flies,
No records of me,
Are recorded.
No mem'ries of me,
Are remembered.

I'd ran a tough race,
But who cares.
Living a lonely life,
Being all alone;
Meaningless...
Completely meaningless!!

I once got a friend who said this, "I just love celebrating Christmas. It's the most joyous occasion in the whole year!! During this season, shopping malls will definitely offer sales and Santa Clause will go around greeting and giving little presents.... hey Sam, by the way, why do Santa Clauses appear during Christmas times? How does Santa relate to Christmas and Christians? Is Santa a god? Do you Christians worship him because he grants you what you want?"
I was started when she said that. I was even more shock when I ask her whether does she know this Person called, Jesus and she answered me, "Heard of Him before. Is He even an important Person in this world?!"

After that incident, I kept asking myself this, "How could people not know the Creator of this universe, the One who love us so much that He'd sent His Son, Jesus who willing to lay down His crown and all His riches and came down from Heaven to earth just to die on the cross to save us from hell?"

Nowadays people are lost. Lost in the darkness of this world. Some are desperately wanting to find the Way, the Truth and the Light. Some rejects Him. But the most are the one's who did not even get a chance to know about Him. "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." (Matt 9: 37-38)

So to all Christians, do not be afraid or hesitate to talk about the grace & love of our beloved Jesus Christ. He had done it all for us and it is our turn to give it all to Him!!

And to my beloved friends who yet to know Jesus and really wanted to know about Him, I would like to dedicate this video to you. Watch and be touched!!
If you do not understand the video, let me know, I'll be there to help you understand what God wants to tell you about Him through this video.

video taken from
Tangle.com(Godtube)

The background song used was Lifehouse's "Everything". It has wonderful lyrics. Although this song is not a Christian song, but it was written in such a way that we could relate it with our walk with Christ.
These are the lyrics...

LIFEHOUSE - EVERYTHING

Find me here, speak to me
I want to feel you, I need to hear you
You are the light that's leading me to the place
Where I find peace again
You are the strength that keeps me walking
You are the hope that keeps me trusting
You are the life to my soul
You are my purpose
You're everything

And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
You calm the storms and you give me rest
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall

You still my heart and you take my breath away
Would you take me in, take me deeper now
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
Cause you're all I want, you're all I need

You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
Everything, everything

And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better any better than this
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this

SONNET 43

How Do I Love Thee? Let Me Count The Ways
(From The Portuguese)

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

I love thee to the depth and breath and height

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.

I love thee to the level of everyday's

Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;

I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.

I love thee with passion put to use

In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose

With my lost saints! - I love thee with the breath,

Smiles, tears, of all my life! - and, if God choose,

I shall but love thee better after death.

Stress.... stress.... STRESS!!!! Studying in science stream is definitely tough. Especially when the teachers themselves do not even know what they are teaching. Oh my dear!!! Almost everyday, my class will definitely get at least 5 homeworks. And 1 homework will almost take you an hour to finish it. Really got not much time to relax and have fun.

When I'm doing my homework, I will usually turn on the radio and tune to 988. Well, although I neither like writing nor reading mandarin, but still I love to communicate in mandarin and listen to mandarin songs. Another reason I like 988 is because of the DJs. They really got the sense of humor.

Lately, 988 has been promoting Fang Jiong Bin (方炯镔)'s new album '好人?!' (Good Person?!). And I really love this song of his, '坏人'. Check out the lyrics!! (if you can read mandarin) Is really meaningful. And I would like to dedicate this song to a special person, MsA.

坏人

那一扇车门
nà yī shàn chē mén

关出我们的裂痕
guān chū wŏ men de liè hén

一声就震断了回头的路程
yī shēng jiù zhèn duàn le huí tóu de lù chéng

爱无法均分
ài wú fă jūn fēn

以后就留给你们
yĭ hòu jiù liú gĕi nĭ men

也许用伤害结束爱才更动人
yĕ xŭ yòng shāng hài jié shù ài cái gèng dòng rén

容忍的人其实并不笨
róng rĕn de rén qí shí bìng bù bèn

只是宁可对自己残忍
zhī shì zhù kĕ duì zì jĭ cán rĕn

既然爱不能恒温
jì rán ài bù néng héng wēn

祝福就给你下一个人
zhù fú jiù gĕi nĭ xià yī gè rén

你是好人也是个坏人
nĭ shì hăo rén yĕ shì gè huài rén

对我坦承只为了朝他狂奔
duì wŏ tăn chéng zhī wéi le cháo tā kuáng bēn

不能放任所以放了
bù néng fàng rèn suŏ yĭ fàng le

这点痛我还能忍
zhè diăn tòng wŏ huán néng rĕn

我是好人也是个坏人
wŏ shì hăo rén yĕ shì gè huài rén

分得够狠你才有借口转身
fēn de gòu hĕn nĭ cái yŏu jiè kŏu zhuăn shēn

宁愿爱一点不剩
zhù yuàn ài yī diăn bù shèng

也不忍看恋人爱成路人
yĕ bù rĕn kàn liàn rén ài chéng lù rén

三个人从不对等
sān gè rén cóng bù duì dĕng

总有个人必须牺牲
zŏng yŏu gè rén bì xū xī shēng

那永恒就等他带你完成
nà yŏng héng jiù dĕng tā dài nĭ wán chéng

宁愿爱一点不剩
zhù yuàn ài yī diăn bù shèng

也不忍看恋人爱成路人

a random post~~

I'm loss!! I'm totally loss.
I do not know what's my purpose living on this earth anymore.
I feel like everything around me is just a dream.
A nightmare.

I'm loss!! I'm totally loss.
I do not know which path am I taking now.
I feel like there's no end to it.
A dead road.

I'm loss!! I'm totally loss.
I do not know why I can't see the light.
I feel like I'm abandon in a dark hole.
So dark that I can't even see where I'm going.
A total pitch black.

Oh Lord,
Bring me back to You,
Cover me with Your warm, loving and secure arms.
Guide me & show me Your way,
And I will follow You.
Let me feel Your presence,
So that I will know You are with me,
Walking beside me,
Giving me courage,
Hope, Love,
And Joy.

Greater things are yet to come

Sam hereby pledges to update his blog at least once every two days.

They'd turned my blog into some advertising blog. Just like Miss YVONNE!! Haiz.. anyway, this will be the last time. I will assure that.

Anyway, I did had a lot of fun at Jon's house yesterday. At least I get to eat my turkey!! Woo-hoo!! It was délicieux!!! Turkey will always be my favourite meat!! =D Other than the turkey, the Fu-Jien Noodle is also nice. Taiko Alvin recommend it 1st. So give it a try, turn out it wasn't as bad as it looks. Especially when you eat them in a cup. Haha... =P And seriously Sarah, you really missed out a lot of GOOD FOOD!! Kesiannya!! Wakakaka!!! XD

Lately, I got an e-mail from my sis of a video about a baby boy, Eliot who was born with an undeveloped lung, a heart with a hole in it and DNA that placed faulty information into each and every cell of his body. However, out of all these "inconveniences", our almighty God did not stop revealing Himself in the life of this innocent little baby boy. Okay, let's not kill anymore time. Check-out the video posted below and be touched by Him. God bless!! =D

Check out this one as well!! =)

This video is not dedicated for Dads only, it is also dedicated for both the parents, Moms & Dads. Parents play a very important role in their children's lives. Children always set their standards according to what their Parents had set for themselves. In a simple way it says, children will live their lives according to what their Parents had done in their lives. Every action done by the parents are observed by the children whether it matches to what they say or not. So parents, be careful, set a good example to your children, because they are watching you. Every move you take, every word you say can make a whole lot of difference in your children's lives. God bless!!

THE RAILWAY OF MY LIFE

ATTENTION
For your information, this is not a song or some
other pickups from elsewhere.
This is a 100% original post written by me
who was inspired by His grace, mercy & love!
t

The road I'm running

Is like a railway train,
Speeding at the speed of light,
Dashing in a bullet train.

A blink of an eye,
Can brings me to the future,
And all the past failures I had,
Doesn't even matters...

What matters most is
What that was left,
And this is what I'll treasure.

My tomorrows aren't within my control,
All my plans aren't made by my hands,
But His graceful & loving hands are the one's do.
He decides what lies ahead,
And I'll submit to His brilliant plans.

The road that I'm still traveling isn't always straight,
I might fall halfway through,
I might face a mighty thunder,
I might meet dangers,
But I'm not afraid,
B'cuz I know I'm not alone.

He is always by my side,
Picking me up when I fall,
Encouraging me when I'm facing the thunder,
And protecting me from any dangers.

He is my comforter,
My strength,
And my FRIEND!!

Our lives are like railways,
And we are the train drivers.
He is the railway builder,
Who only knows where this railway will leads the train to go,
And what dangers it will faces during the journey.
But certainly,
He will not let this train go astray.
He had prepared a route plan for the train drivers,
The BIBLE.
Using the 'route plan' & following the rules He had made,
We will certainly reach our destination one day,
HEAVEN!!

THE RAILWAY OF LIFE

SWITCHFOOT - THIS IS HOME

Lyrics of the song,

I've got my memories
Always
Inside of me
But I can't go back
Back to how it was
I believe you now
I've come too far
No I can't go back
Back to how it was
Created for a place
I've never known

Chorus:
This is home
Now I'm finally
Where I belong
Where I belong
Yeah, this is home
I've been searching
For a place of my own
Now I've found it
Maybe this is home
Yeah, this is home

Belief over misery
I've seen the enemy
And I won't go back

Back to how it was
And I got my heart
Set on
What happens next
I got my eyes wide
It's not over yet
We are miracles
And we're not alone

(Chorus)

And now after all
My searching
After all my questions
I'm gonna call it home
I got a brand new mindset
I can finally see
The sunset
I'm gonna call it home

(Chorus)

Now I know
Yeah, this is home

I've come too far
And I won't go back
Yeah, this is home

This song reminds me that I'm just a passer-by on earth.
My real home is in Heaven!
And I'll always hold onto my citizenship in Heaven because
Jesus had paid the price with His life.

"For our citizenship is in Heaven,
from which we eagerly wait for the Savior,
the Lord Jesus Christ"
Philippians 3:20

2008-11-13T22:11:00.000+08:00

Once, a man asked Jesus,"How much do you LOVE me?"
And Jesus said,"This is how much I LOVE you!"
and He spread out His arms
and die on the cross...

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him shall not perish
but have eternal life.
~John 3:16

Hey guys, really sorry for the late posting...... I'm kinda busy this few days.... hanging-out with friends and sometimes with......well..... just myself (but still I'd enjoy it...... hahaha....=P)

Since SOMEONE is so desperately wanted me to post something....... LOLzx... XD..... I'll post about my hang-outs lately, starting from the hang-out at RED BOX with LayYean, Jon, Faye, Hannah and Sarah......

That day after the practice for the puzzle thingy performance, LayYean suggested to go for karaoke together in RED BOX, Mid Valley. When we reached there, there were so many people lining up at the counter..... well..... in my mind, I wasn't afraid that we are not going to get a room, because LayYean had already booked a room for us.... but I was just afraid that later on, I'll have to queue up for a long time to get my FOOD..... hahaha....=P ....... so when the buffet started, I'd tried to get my plates as fast as possible and be the 1st to queue up there......but too bad, I'd failed....but anyway, I still got lotsa food.......hahaha......LOLzx rite..... well, what can you expect from a real FOOD LOVER.... ahahaha.....=D
From this hang-out, I'd actually learned that Jon really naturally got a GREAT voice range. He could actually reached the Soprano tone and can sound exactly like S.H.E's voice...... hey Jon, you don't have to belanja me for this.....hahaha....erm.....well, maybe just STARBUCKS will do.......hahaha......just joking......hehe....=P

Here are some photos we took with Jon's N70 Nokia phone....... hehehe.....=P.........

These are the cracks that make us go crazy...... hahaha........=P

Look what the cracks did to me and Sarah!! =D

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!
MAY I PRESENT YOU, MISS LAY YEAN!!"

Yummie!! Seems like they are enjoying the cracks..... haha....XD
pic from left: Hannah and Faye Jie

"SAY CHEESE!!"

The next hang-out was with Kai Seng, Sarah, Hannnah, Jon, and 3 new cool friends that I'd just met, who were Kenneth, Clarence and Alex. We went to watch Madagascar 2 in Mid Valley's GSC. That show is really really funny!! What can you expect from a BenStiller-voiced cartoon movie?! If you really wanna watch a movie that will make you laugh your hearts out, Madagascar 2 I will highly recommend! Before the show starts, Hannah had smuggled some fries and I'd smuggled a burger that we bought from McD into the cinema....... hahaha..... shhhh.....XD....well...... actually I'd did these out of desperation...... I haven't ate my lunch and that' why..... well...... for Hannah's case....... erm........ it's hard 2 say......mayb because fries are just too hard to resist when watching a movie....... hahaha.......=P

After the movie, we went for dinner in Kim Gary's Restaurant. There were many people inside and so we are forced to wait about 5 minutes before being seated. And to be honest, the "pork chop with preserved vegetable shanghai noodle" that I'd order is really not yuck!! 1st of all, the pork chop is not well cooked. 2ndly, the soup is tasteless at all. 3rdly the noodle is also tasteless. I really regreted ordering that. But I don't have a choice because my wallet wasn't as loaded as SOMEONE...... hahaha..... =D

Well, I really had a real great time hanging-out with this bunch of friends. Like what Kai Seng had said, "We are really blessed by Him who gave us such bonded-good-friends." (well....this is not the exact thing he said.....but I'm sure this is what he means..... haha..... =P.....hey KS, correct me if I'm wrong....... LOLzx......=D)

And yea, I would really wanna thank Jon for picking me up from my house when going MV and dropping me at LRT station when leaving MV! He's always the one who's doing the driving........ hahaha......=)...... THANK YOU VERY MUCH JON!!

And one more thing, I would also like to thank Sarah for borrowing me her electric guitar....... now I can learn my Canon in D already........ hahaha...... =D ~THANK YOU VERY MUCH SARAH!! =)

2008-11-08T01:31:00.000+08:00

Another tough day tat I'd went through.........

Yesterday was my 1st day of work. I'm excited, happy(thinking about getting my 1st pay.... hahaha.. :P)..... and I'm also really proud to be part of this thing, because I got a really GOOD BOSS!! Why do I say that?? Well.... he'd actually come all the way from somewhere far just to pick me and Jeremy up from Leisure Mall! Cool boss uh?!! =)

In my opinion, I think he shouldn't become a caterer, he should be a philosopher or a counselor instead....XD....throughout the journey to Damansara where we suppose to pick up the food n stuff like that, he kept on counsel us about how to live your life to the fullness by using his life as an example.... LOLzx..... and he's really a funny guy..... is really nice to listen to him 'counsel'...... hahahaha.....=D

Our job for yesterday was at Shah Alam. We are setting up a buffet dinner for the Fella Design grand opening. "WOW!" isn't it.... I'd never thought that my first job will be that BIG and GRAND. Well.... overall, the job wasn't that tough, just that sometimes we really need to get our hands dirty!!

Actually, the best part of the job is not only getting the pay, but also getting my stomach filled up.... hehehehe..... well... that is actually the MAIN REASON I want this job..... hahahah....... :P

2008-11-03T23:16:00.000+08:00

Lord you said that once I decided to follow You,

we would walk side by side through life,
but when i needed you most,
I saw only one set of footprints in the sand,
the Lord replied, "I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints it was then that I carried you."

This is what had kept me going all this while during my depressing moments......

Guess everything have to meets an end. After a short while of breaking down and crying(at last) and thinking, I'd finally come to my senses that all my tears are really wasted. Why should I have to make myself suffer and depress?!! Although this had really brought a lot of pain, but life still have to go on right?? Although sometimes I may still think of her, but the most important thing is that I'm back to my happy life again!! =)
(in case you misunderstood, the SHE I'm talking about all the while is just a very dear friend of mine, nothing more than that, and she's still a very dear friend of mine)

Well this few days had really been the most colourful ones compare with the usual dull ones. That Saturday, after our last church shifting, Dai Siu suddenly invite me and my bro go to his house. Well, since I'm so free and my bro is always the out-going one, we went to Dai Siu's house and stayed for a night. "WOW!!" was my first impression of the apartment. The apartment was beautifully and elegantly decorated. Staying there is just like staying in a 6-stars hotel!! SueAnn and E-Laine was so kind that they'd prepared dinner for us. The meal was délicieux!! Thank you very much for the meal, SueAnn and E-laine!! After the meal, we went down to the swimming pool. My bro and Dai Siu went swimming while me, SueAnn and E-laine sat aside chit-chat and let my bro and Dai Siu entertain us. My bro had showed off his newly invented swimming style, one-hand-one nose style........ LOLz..... and they'd had a MALAYSIAN GOT TALENT show...... it's really really funny, I bet if my bro really join one of these kind of reality show, he will definitely win!! Haha..... :P After all these, we went to a nearby malay restaurant to get a drink. It's really the first time for me and my bro to eat in a malay restaurant. I'd ordered a malay style mushroom soup. Slurrrp...... SEDAP!! Later on, we went back to the apartment and watch a comedy hong kong movie. We'd really laugh our hearts out......HAHAHA.....thinking about it now, it makes me laugh again!! =D

On the next day, we arrived at church earlier than usual because we have to jam for our worship. Actually, our jamming session was supposed to held on every Friday. But on that particular Friday got no electric, so we have to postpone. Although we did it in the last minutes, we still make it and the worship was still good. ALL GLORY GOES BACK TO DAD!! =)

Later that night, me, my bro, the LOHs and the YANGs went for a musical at Petaling Jaya Gospel Hall Church. The musical is called "CRAZY LITTLE THING CALLED LOVE", performed by Footstool Players. Well, it's not really a musical kind of thing like Friends Forever where we have to dance, sing and act at the same time. It's more like sketches with background musics. We absolutely enjoyed it! It talks about the many types of love we have in our daily lives. I really can't deny that they had done a really GOOD job! ;)

Do you think you are the only one??!!
I'd tried my best getting myself back to track, but I can't.
Every night I look up the sky, I'll remember what you'd promised me.
Non of them seems to be happening.

Thinking of you just makes me sad.
Thinking of you just makes me depress.
Getting memories of you out of my mind seems to be impossible.
Erasing it means erasing my heart.
They are hooking onto it.

I really don't understand what you're thinking about.
I wanted to know how you feel,
but every time you'll try to hide them.
I'd dug a deep hole and I'd buried my heart in
and now i can't find it.
I just can't stop thinking about you.
Would you please say something!!
I really desperately wanting to know what's in your mind.

I'm not like you!
You got lots of friend to encourage you,
to comfort you, to love you,
to care for you
when you are real down.

But I don't have much.
No one comes to encourage me,
no one comes to comfort me, no one comes to love me,
and no one cares for me.
I'm a nobody to everyone.

But that is not the worst thing.
The worst thing is that when I wanted to cry
my teardrops just can't flow out from my eyes.
The only thing I can do is hide under my sheets
and SCREAM my heart out to HIM.

Maybe I'm crazy.
Maybe I'm just being naive.
Or maybe I'm just being stupid.
But who cares??!!
Isn't that's how the little 'L' word spells??

2008-10-29T23:10:00.000+08:00

Every notes is from my mind,
Every rhyme is from my heart,
None of them is not not about you,
None of them is not not written for you.

All my mem'ries of you is noted in the pieces,
Ev'ry smile, ev'ry laughter,
Ev'ry tears, ev'ry sorrow,
Are all perfectly composed
Into a beautiful melody,
A sweet & wonderful melody.

You are my song,
The song that keeps on playing within me,
A burning flame that shines within me.
A star that shimmer above the splendid sky.

This song that I wrote,
Will never be told.
This song that I sing,
Will never be heard.
If my heart is still missing you.

YOU ARE MY MUSIC

As many nights are past,
I hope our friendship will still last.
Although we are miles apart,
I hope that we're still walking on the same right path.
I'll be always counting the days,
And hoping that I could see you again
Some day.....

I really misses you so much,
That numbers will never reach that much.
Day by day,
I'll ask myself to pray.
Pray that you may be gay,
And all the burdens you'll lay,
Lay down at the feet of our loving DAD!

MY ANGEL, MY BLESSINGS

Haizz.... another boring day! I thought after PMR I'll be happy and having fun all the time. But it turns out to be the opposite. Doing nothing at home is really sickening! I feel like a useless person. I thought I finally could get a chance to go out with that person. But all of a sudden, she don't want to. What can I do?! I can't put a pistol on her head and force her to go. I really misses her a lot! :'( Hope she's doing fine right now.

Finally, I thought of something to do. I will get a part-time job to fill up my time. So, me and few of my friends decided to work as caterers. We had our interview that Saturday at somewhere quite far. To our surprise, our 'going-to-be' boss turned up to be a christian too. During the interview, he told us some of the important things that we should know about catering. Well, the payment is not that high, but I still enjoyed myself 'cuz it is a whole new experience for me!

Throughout this week, I had learned an important lesson from an event that had happened. This event is about a guy who works as an accountant in a church stole a big amount of money from that specific church. That guy had actually doing this stuff for 4 years. And nobody had found up about this throughout the 4 years. About a week ago, this guy was caught and he admitted that he had stolen about 20,000 US dollar from the church. The church called the police and he was sent into jail. In my opinion, if he is content with what he had and not covet with what other people have, he will not steal and will not get himself into this kind of situation. What i had learned is that we should be content with what we have and 'do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth....... but lay up treasures in heaven.......for where your heart is, there your heart will be also(matt 6: 19-21)'. When we focus too much on the things on earth, we will tend to stray away from our DAD in heaven who can give you eternity and true happiness.

As Long As You Need Me

2008-10-22T21:42:00.000+08:00

Didn't have anything that I could say
There were no words to make it go away
Didn't have the answer to give you
No rhyme or reason made it less true
Can't hide the sorrow in your eyes
Sometimes healing just takes time

As long as you need me
I'm gonna be here
I'll bring some laughter to dry your tears
As long as you need me
You just hold me near
'Till the pain disappears
You know I'm here

Life can be hard, so hard to bear
And sometimes living is so unfair
There's nothing to blame, just the way it is
One reason fades and another begins
Can't hide the sorrow in your eyes
Sometimes healing just takes time
Love saves a heart that's torn
And hope can be reborn

AS LONG AS YOU NEED ME

He's Crazy about You

2008-10-11T13:08:00.000+08:00

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, He'll listen.
He can live anywhere in the universe,
but He chose your heart.
What about the Christmas gift He sent you in Bethlehem;
not to mention that Friday at Calvary.
Face it, He's crazy about you.

Love?

2008-09-08T15:49:00.001+08:00

I was lonely in the night,

I wish for the star to shine,
Shine down the bright & warm light on me.
I was lonely in the night,
Wishing for your love,
Longing for you to call me,
But u never did.
When I thought I was gonna give up,
Your smile brings u back to me,
Your bright smile that lightens up my day,
Your breath-taking smile that mesmerized me.
I felt different for the 1st time,
That feeling is like the water rushing down d cliff,
Crashing onto my heart,
A heart of despair.
Everything is fake,
Everything is a lie
None of them is true.
It is a deception,
A lion in it's den,
Waiting to devour a man.
Why am I acting like a fool?
Why am I digging a grave for myself?
In the end, what do i get?
Heartbreak & Heartache,
Is what I'll get.
Crazy love; Crazy me,
Chasing for a star that I'll never get,
Wishing for a dream that will never come true.

LOVE?

Friends Forever Finale

2008-07-12T17:24:00.000+08:00

On the 1oth of July is the last time we, the tough youth, will be presenting Friends Forever. We presented it in Sedaya College. On that day, i have to rush back home straight from my tuition centre, kasturi. Many things actually happened in kasturi........and it really disturbed my emotion. But i've to cover up......well that's who i am.......i dun really like to show my emotions to other people . I may look very cheerful on the outside, but not really in the inside. Ok, let's skip this!

It was my 1st time in Sedaya College. My 1st impression is like "WOW"! This place really is big and nice! Wish i could study here next time. After we r 'escorted' to a room, we were make-uped by some of the PRETTY LADIES. Honestly, I HATE MAKE-UPs! I really can't understand why ladies like to put chemicals on the face and petroleum on the lips. It really sucks to the max man!

Anyway, after setting up the stage backdrop n some practices, the musical started. The musical went on quite well, except some mistakes here and there, but overall, it's still good. Especially when Michelle SLAPS Benjamin on the face...........oouucchh..........i like that part a lot. I think it's so real and nasty...........haha!! No la, actually is an accident. Michelle didn't intend to do it, but it runs well on the show. Well done Michelle, if next time got a chance, SLAP HARDER............haha!

We went to a restaurant near Jon's house after we finished the show. Ev'ry one's enjoyin themselves. Especially Ian! He can really eat a lot. I think we actually deserve this little treat isn't....... i mean...............after so many hardworks, dripping sweat and blood don't we deserve a little gift?

We really learn a lot from this musical. One of them is that a life time is not too long to live as friends. So, cheerish every moment you have with ur friends and treat them as if that's no tomorow! GOD BLESS!!

The Amazing Grace

2007-12-28T14:00:00.000+08:00

Do you know who wrote the song, Amazing Grace? And why was it written?

John Newton who wrote this song was a slave trader. He was the captain of a slave-ship, the Greyhound and he spent a lot of days of his life trapped in this tragic way of life! But one day, God sent a severe storm that almost sank Newton’s slave-ship. Newton awoke in the middle of the night and prayed to God as the ship filled with water. Since then, he spent the rest of his days preaching the good news where ever he went, talking about the grace of God, this Amazing Grace of God that set him free. And at the end of his days, he wrote this poem called the Amazing Grace that became a song that we sing today.

John Newton has been criticized by some modern writers for continuing to participate in the slave trade while, at the same time, holding to strong Christian convictions. This has often been characterized as hypocrisy. But this should be seen in the light of his own estimation of the true timing of his Christian conversion. Writing about the definite change that had happened to him in 1748, Newton would later write:

'I was greatly deficient in many respects...I cannot consider myself to have been a believer (in the full sense of the word) till a considerable time afterwards."

After what he felt was his true conversion to Christianity, he came to deeply regret and repent of his personal involvement in the slave trade, and he later joined William Wilberforce in the campaign for abolition. In 1787 he wrote a tract supporting the campaign, Thoughts Upon the African Slave Trade.

Among his greatest contributions to history was encouraging Wilberforce, a Member of Parliament of Hull, to stay in Parliament and "serve God where he was", rather than enter the ministry. Wilberforce heeded the ex-slave ship captain's advice, and spent the next twenty years successfully working for the abolition of the slave trade in the British Empire.

Inspired by the motion picture, ‘Amazing Grace’.

This movie went on screen everywhere on the 23rd of February 2007 except in Malaysia.

Amazing Grace Lyrics
John Newton (1725-1807)Stanza 6 anon.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see.

T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.

And Grace, my fears relieved.

How precious did that Grace appear

The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares

I have already come;

'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far

and Grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me.

His word my hope secures.

He will my shield and portion be,

As long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

And mortal life shall cease,

I shall possess within the veil,

A life of joy and peace.

When we've been here ten thousand years

Bright shining as the sun.

We've no less days to sing God's praise

Than when we've first begun.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see.

Just Push!

2007-10-03T00:11:00.000+08:00

A man was sleeping at night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light and the Savior appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might. This the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sun up to sun down, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all his might.

Each night the man returned to his cabin sore, and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain. Seeing that the man was showing signs of discouragement, the Adversary decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the man's weary mind: "You have been pushing against that rock for a long time, and it hasn't budged.

Why kill yourself over this? You are never going to move it." Thus giving the man the impression that the task was impossible and that he was a failure, these thoughts discouraged and disheartened the man."Why kill myself over this?" he thought. "I'll just put in my time, giving just the minimum effort and that will be good enough." And that is what he planned to do until one day he decided to make it a matter of prayer and take his troubled thoughts to the Lord. "Lord" he said, "I have labored long and hard in your service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked. Yet, after all this time, I have not even budged that rock by half a millimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?"

The Lord responded compassionately, "My child, when I asked you to serve me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all your strength, which you have done. Never once did I mention to you that I expected you to move it. Your task was to push. And now you come to me, with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed. But, is that really so? Look at yourself. Your arms are strong and muscled, your back sinew and brown, your hands are callused from constant pressure, and your legs have become massive and hard. Through opposition you have grown much and your abilities now surpass that which you used to have. Yet you haven't moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and trust in My wisdom. This you have done. I, my friend, will now move the rock."

At times, when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own intellect to decipher what He wants, when actually what God wants is just simple obedience and faith in Him. By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God who moves the mountains.For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes... Romans 1:16

When everything seems to go wrong, just P.U.S.H.!When the job gets you down, just P.U.S.H.!When people don't react the wayyou think they should, just P.U.S.H.!When your money is low and the bills are due, just P.U.S.H.!When people just don't understand you, just P.U.S.H.!

P.U.S.H = Pray Until Something Happens

Is Your Hut Burning?

2007-10-03T00:07:00.000+08:00

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming.

Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions. But then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky. The worst had happened; everything was lost. He was stunned with grief and anger. "God, how could you do this to me!" he cried.

Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It had come to rescue him.

"How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man of his rescuers.

"We saw your smoke signal," they replied.

It is easy to get discouraged when things are going badly. But we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering. Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground --- it just may be a smoke signal that summons the grace of God.

For all the negative things we have to say to ourselves,God has a positive answer for it:

You say: "It's impossible"
God says: "All things are possible" (Luke 18:27)

You say: "I'm too tired"
God says: "I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28-30)

You say: "Nobody really loves me"
God says: "I love you" (John 3:16 & 13:34)

You say: "I can't go on"
God says: "My grace is sufficient" (II Corinthians 12:9, Psalms 91:15)

You say: "I can't figure things out"
God says: "I will direct your steps" (Proverbs 3:5-6)

You say: "I can't do it"
God says: "You can do all things" (Philippians 4:13)

You say: "I'm not able"
God says: "I am able" (II Corinthians 9:8)

You say: "It's not worth it"
God says: "It will be worth it" (Romans 8:28)

You say: "I can't forgive myself"
God says: "I FORGIVE YOU" (I John 1:9 & Romans 8:1)

You say: "I can't manage"
God says: "I will supply all your needs" (Philippians 4:19)

You say: "I'm afraid"
God says: "I have not given you a spirit of fear" (II Timothy 1:7)

You say: "I'm always worried and frustrated"
God says: "Cast all your cares on ME" (I Peter 5:7)

You say: "I don't have enough faith"
God says: "I've given everyone a measure of faith" (Romans 12:3)

You say: "I'm not smart enough"
God says: "I give you wisdom" (I Corinthians 1:30)

You say: "I feel all alone"
God says: "I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5)

WHAT IS IT WORTH?

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill.In a room full of people, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?"
Hands started going up. The speaker said,"I am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first, let me do this."He proceeded to crumple the $20 dollar bill up.
He then asked, "Who still wants it?"Still the hands were up in the air.
"Well," he replied, "what if I do this?"He dropped the money on the ground and startedto grind it into the floor with his shoe.He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty."Now who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.
"My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson.No matter what I did to the money,you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value.It was still worth $20. The same is true about people."

Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled,and ground into the dirt by the decisions we makeand the circumstances that come our way.We feel as though we are worthless.But no matter what has happened or what will ever happen,you will never lose your value in God's eyes.
To Him, dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless.Psalm 17:8 states that God will keep us, "as the apple of His eye."
The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we arebut by WHOSE WE ARE!
You are special because you are a child of God.Don't ever forget it!

Harry Potter: What Does God Have To Say?

2007-09-30T22:57:00.001+08:00

Pastor David J. Meyer:-

I am writing this urgent message because I was once a witch. I lived by the stars as an astrologer and numerologist casting horoscopes and spells. I lived in the mysterious and shadowy realm of the occult.

By means of spells and magic, I was able to invoke the powers of the 'controlling unknown' and fly upon the night winds transcending the astral plane. Halloween was my favorite time of the year and I was intrigued and absorbed in the realm of Wiccan witchcraft. All of this was happening in the decade of the 1960's when witchcraft was just starting to come out of the broom closet.

It was during that decade of the 1960's, in the year 1966 that a woman named J.K. Rowling was born. This is the woman who has captivated the world in this year of 2000 with four books known as the 'Harry Potter Series.' These books are orientation and instructional manuals of witchcraft woven into the format of entertainment. These four books by J.K. Rowling teach witchcraft! I know this because I was once very much a part of that world.

Witchcraft was very different in the 1960's. There were a lot fewer witches, and the craft was far more secretive. At the end of that spiritually troubled decade, I was miraculously saved by the power of Jesus Christ and His saving blood. I was also delivered from every evil spirit that lived in me and was set free. However, as I began to attend fundamental Christian churches, I realized that even there witchcraft had left its mark. Pagan holidays and sabats were celebrated as 'Christian holidays.'

As time went on, I watched the so-called 'Christian' churches compromising and unifying. I also watched with amazement as teachings from Eastern religions and 'New Age' doctrine began to captivate congregations. It was a satanic set-up, and I saw it coming. Illuministic conspirators were bringing forth a one-world religion with a cleverly concealed element of occultism interwoven in its teachings.

In order to succeed in bringing witchcraft to the world and thus complete satanic control, an entire generation would have to be induced and taught to think like witches, talk like witches, dress like witches, and act like witches. The occult songs of the 1960's launched the Luciferian project of capturing the minds of an entire generation. In the song 'Sound Of Silence' by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel, we were told of seeds that were left while an entire generation was sleeping, and that the 'vision that was planted in my brain still remains.'

Now it is the year 2000. All of the foundations for occultism and witchcraft are in place. The Illuminists have to move quickly, because time is running out.

It was the Communist revolutionary Lenin who said, 'Give me one generation of youth, and I will transform the entire world.' Now an entire generation of youth has been given to a woman named J.K. Rowling and her four books on witchcraft, known as the Harry Potter Series.

As a former witch, I can speak with authority when I say that I have examined the works of Rowling and that the Harry Potter books are training manuals for the occult. Untold millions of young people are being taught to think, speak, dress and act like witches by filling their heads with the contents of these books. Children are obsessed with the Harry Potter books that they have left television and video games to read these witchcraft manuals.

The first book of the series, entitled 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone', finds the orphan, Harry Potter, embarking into a new realm when he is taken to 'Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.' At this occult school, Harry Potter learns how to obtain and use witchcraft equipment. Harry also learns a new vocabulary, including words such as 'Azkaban', 'Circe', 'Draco ', 'Erised', 'Hermes', and 'Slytherin'; all of which are names of real devils or demons. These are not characters of fiction!

How serious is this? By reading these materials, many millions of young people are learning how to work with demon spirits. They are getting to know them by name. Vast numbers of children professing to be Christians are also filling their hearts and minds, while willingly ignorant parents look the other way.

The titles of the books should be warning enough to make us realize how satanic and anti-Christ these books are. The afore-mentioned title of the first book, 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone', was a real give away. The second book was called 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets', while the third book was entitled 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.'

Sadly enough, this blatant witchcraft has been endorsed by well-known and respected 'Christian' leaders, such as Dr. James Dobson and Chuck Colson, who have proven themselves to be modern day Judas Iscariots. Nothing could be more obvious than that Harry Potter books are pure witchcraft and of the devil. The 'Christian' leaders, however, defend them by saying that good magic always wins and overcomes evil magic.

This is the oldest con game ever hatched out of hell. As a real witch, I learned about the two sides of 'the force.' Apparently, so do many 'Christian' leaders. When real witches have sabats and esbats and meet as a coven, they greet each other by saying 'Blessed be', and when they part, they say 'The Force be with you.' Both sides of this 'Force' are Satan. It is not a good side of the force that overcomes the bad side of the force, but rather it's the blood of Jesus Christ that destroys both supposed sides of the satanic 'Force.'

High level witches believe that there are seven satanic princes and that the seventh, which is assigned to Christians, has no name. In coven meetings, he is called 'the nameless one.' In the Harry Potter books, there is a character called 'Voldemort.' The pronunciation guide says of this being 'He who must not be named.'

On July 8 at midnight, bookstores everywhere were stormed by millions of children to obtain the latest and fourth book of the series known as 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.' These books were taken into homes everywhere with a real evil spirit following each copy to curse those homes.

July 8th was also the 18th day (three sixes in numerology) from the witches' sabat of midsummer. July 8th was also the 13th day from the signing of the United Religions Charter in San Francisco . Now we have learned that the public school system is planning to use the magic of Harry Potter in the classrooms making the public schools centers of witchcraft training.

What does God have to say about such books as the Harry Potter series? In the Bible in the book of Acts, we read the following in the 19th chapter, verses 18 - 20: 'And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the Word of God and prevailed.'

As parents, we will answer to God if we allow our children to read witchcraft books. The Word of God will prevail mightily in your life only if such things of Satan are destroyed. This tract has been prayed over, and I hope it has helped you.
