The Long Silence.......has ended!!! (I hope) :p

It has been awhile since i updated my blog. I was busy or maybe lazy to do so. :P Anyway, i usually online for too short a time to really sit down and write into my blog. hehe. it has been a busy time for me. things are really starting to pick up in college. For example, homework is increasing but the due date remains the same. On the good side, we are finishing a lot of chapters in the unit. On the down side, that means more stuff to revise. *sigh* :P I know I can't do the studying on my own but I can with the help of God. May God's name be glorified even through my studies. There is this verse that really struck me: 1 Samuel 2:30 "......Those who honour me I will honour, but those who despise me will be disdained." If we honour God in all that we do, God Himself will honour us and lift us up in due time for His glory. Colossians 3:23 "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men." So, continue to depend on God for everything-even the things that seem small. God wants us to trust in Him in ALL things. All honour and glory to God forever and ever!!!!! Amen!

God bless you all!

What a week......!!!?

It has indeed been a long week for me. I started having a fever on monday(approximately) and continued till today. i finally went to see the doc today because my fever was coming and going. got some medicine and all i need is some rest and lots of water. :P today i remembered a passage in exodus that kinda struck me and i juz wanna pen it down here. Exodus 9:15 is a part of it but its the main thing: "For by now I could have stretched out my hand and struck you and your people with a plague that would have wiped you off the earth." Even it was refering to Pharoah, the underlying truth of it i feel remains the same. Our lives are in God's hands. God can just take our lives at anytime. He could destroy the whole world with a single word but He didn't. I come to value each day as a gift from God and evidence of His great and boundless grace and mercy. He can just blot us out because of our sin but he did not. He send his Son, Jesus to die for our sins. That shows how much He loves us. I also come to valu my salvation more. It is not by our own righteuoesness that we come before God but by the blood of Christ which sanctifies and purifies us. God indeed is a merciful and loving God!!! Amen!

God bless you all!!

Busy busy

It has been quite a busy week. thats why my blog wasn't updated in awhile. i came online for short periods to do a few simple tasks then log out already. haiz. overall, it has been a wonderful week thanks to God. eventhough it has been a busy week, God gave me strength to see me through. i am partly at fault because i procrastinated and left some work for the last minute. i feel that it is times like this i can sense God trying to tell me "Don't procrastinate". this wasn't the first time but anyway i think that God can use whatever situation to teach us something even if we made the wrong choices. He allows us to go through certain situations to shape and mould us. I may not see it at first but when I reflect and think back on what has happened, i see God's hand and guidance through it all the while. I can only praise and thank God for who He is. Hallelujah!

1 Corinthians 10:13
"No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it"

Proverbs 10:4
" Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth"


Amen.

Mark 6:31
"Then, because so many people were coming and going that they(the Twelve) did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them," Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest."
