God is exist and He love us lot!

We watched Passion of Christ before and all of us get touched included some of the Buddhist friends. Just put yourself to God’s shoes, are you willing to scarify your son or daughters to rescue human in the world? Are you willing the scarify yourself to save your friends? 100 percent the answer will be “No!”

God create us and love us a lot. Sometime we doubt about his existence or kindness or fairness of him. Are we right? Apparently the answer is “No”. Before you doubt bout him, do you trust him? Or make it simple, would you doubt your friends if you 100 percent try them?

God really love us. Sometime we might doubt why He loves us but still let us suffer for example, Tsunami. But may be you still don’t understand the story behind. What He tries to warm us. Furthermore, satan also can brings all these stuff to human. Why people never scold satan to bring all these!

God love us, this is a fact! Don’t doubt if you have faith. Some might say I want to find out the answer before I really trust. Do you remember there are many facts that happen without Scientifics proven? But people still believe E.T. and existence of ghost. But why not trust God? You also unfair to Him, right?

God love us, else how do you come from? Evolve from dirt? Just like scientist said??? But they still cannot use their knowledge or talents to explain the works of God. Human would not simply come just like things in your house. They suddenly appear in front of you? No, no, no….probably you buy it or you make it.

God create us and He has more talents than us. Human talents are limited, limited until don’t aware what is happening of God’s works.

You are Important!

Don’t say you are not important,
It simply wasn’t true,
The fact that you were born,
Is proof,
God has a plan for you.
~*~*~*~
The path you may seem unclear right now,
But one day you will see,
That all that come before,
Was truly meant to be,
God wrote the book that is your life,
That’s all you need to know,
Each day that you are living,
Was written long ago.
~*~*~*~
God only write best sellers,
So be proud that who you are,
Your character is important,
In this book you are the “Start”.

Praise God!

Yesterday, when I was doing my project, a sound came from window and guesses what, my room is at 1st floor. Furthermore, base on my house architecture, couldn’t be stand by any person, neither by us nor by neighbor. She kept calling my mandarin name sadly. The sound was rather loud indeed.

As I was busy discuss some stuff with my group members, I clearly looked at the time shown in my PC, it was 4 a.m.! I was very scared and straight messaged to a sister that was online too. She asked me pray before continue my compilation of documentation. So erm…I pray for God to protect me. After all, no more weird sounds. Praise God!

During my dinner time, I asked my mother whether she heard any weird sound ( my room is next to her room). She said “No”. I asked again whether she heard any kitten’s sound. Again, her answer was “No”. My brother and younger sister slept around that time and they didn’t hear anything. God, protect me more!

People nowadays change or may be those people that I had meet is different with your circumstances. When we do some little thing to let them know that we really care about them but they will doubt our intention. May be this city, a lot of unhappy stuff occurs but there are still a lot lovely people around. God, please let people around the world, open their heart to feel the love, not only from us but God as well.

~*~*~*~

When you compliment others make sure that you really mean it and you're not just saying something trying to get something in return. Be diligent to compliment because the Bible says that a word spoken in due season is powerful. -- A word fitly spoken and in due season is like apples of gold in settings of silver. Proverbs 25:11

Some Words of Encouragement!

An old Chinese idiom once said, a person life shall experience sweetness, sourness, bitterness & spiciness? Of the four, bitterness is the hardest to swallow. It reminds me of the Ugly Duckling Story. It's how a person learns to grow, either for the better or for the worst, depending on how each one coup with it. The outcome will always be rewarding if you know to grasp the lesson from these past.

***

From the Duck's story, it faces the worst bitterness of all, rejection from the love-ones i.e. its parents, siblings and friends. Left alone to wander in silent in such harsh and scary environment. No one to look up to and being push around by strangers pretending to be its friends. That's how it is in our worldly society. This simple story is so well plan that when it seems to be the end of the poor Duckling's road, only do we realize how it turn out to be such beautiful swan.

***

Many of the people here on Earth are very similar to the ugly duckling, soul searching and wandering in circles in vain, using their own strength and understanding to accomplish an objective. It is only when all things fails, do God do His great and wondrous works in changing the person completely around, molding the person into a new creation. God places friendly Swans with open arms all around us. It is up to the Ducklings to either choose to come to into the swans circle or abstain from them.

From Brother in Christ, SH Looi.

向往天堂

Previously, I was thinking if all my family or my lovely friends go to hell. Why don’t we go together instead of me alone selfishly goes to heaven? But this is a very wrong thought! As I don’t wish become selfish person, I need to share with them. This is the right thought!

The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. The foundation of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eight beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gates made of single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass.

“Behold, I am coming soon! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy in this book.”

We are so glad that friends around us are willing to hear bout our explanation when they have doubts on certain things that we have done. What I can say is, may be sometime the stuff that we have done might cause you feel uncertainty (不安). But we don’t mean to hurt you.

Glad that we have lot of chances to share our testimonials. God is so real!

BUTTERFLY

A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could, and it could go no further.

***

So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract in time.

***

Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly. What the man, in his kindness and haste, did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were God's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

***

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. If God allowed us to go through our lives without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. We could never fly! I asked for Strength......... And God gave me Difficulties to make me strong. I asked for Wisdom......... And God gave me Problems to solve. I asked for Prosperity......... And God gave me Brain and Brawn to work. I asked for Courage......... And God gave me Danger to overcome. I asked for Love......... And God gave me Troubled people to help. I asked for Favors......... And God gave me Opportunities. I received nothing I wanted ........ I received everything I needed! Now you understand the reason behind? Do you?

***

Trust in God. Always !

I still recalled back sis Eileen told me lot things. But somehow, I couldn’t understand what she was trying to tell me at that moment. Anyway I absorbed whatever she told me as much as possible and stored them in my brain. Once I encountered certain thing, I will recall thoughts or sharing that sis in Christ told me before. I will consider the meaning which they wanted to share with me.
***
Back to year 2004, I have some problems and may be because I trust sis in Christ very much as I know they wouldn’t hurt me. For the first time, I shared lot of stuff with sis Shelly. I have a lot of doubts seem nobody answers me and God knows my problems. He brings me in front of this sis…

***

After I back home, I received sis Shelly’s forward mail. Quite similar to this story but it is about a product of factory. Frankly speaking, after I read…erm…I think I only can receive half of the message of God (Thanks for the forward mail, it give me more faith with God).
***

Why suddenly mentioned two sis that in different location? Please be patient to continue reading. As memories are just like puzzles, one piece here and there.

***
Sis Eilee: “Mandy, it will be different if you read bible for the second time. No matter how many times you read, every time, it will be a different!”Mandy eyes full of doubts.
***I

read this articles few times already and today, again, I read it one more time. But this time, all memories as mentioned above appear in my mind and I was start thinking.

***

I asked for faithful friendship…
God gave me open eyes to look who are the faithful friends of mine.I am so touched that my friends are willing to be with me when I face trouble and protect me! And I hope my friends will seek into God kingdom one day.
***

I asked for wisdom…
God gave me lot of problems to let me think over.
Previously I always doubt bout God, why always I am the one facing lot of problems. But now … now… I understand thoroughly. With my efforts and faith in God, I learnt a lot throughout my life and out of my expectation.

***

May be you cannot feel my feeling right now, how glad that I am bless by God. But I wish you will know one day. Just like I tell sis Eileen ->> “Just the matter of time sis, may be I cannot understand what is the reason behind of a thing, surely one day and I hope the day is not far away from me, I will understand.”

Feel with Your Heart

They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. ~Revelation 21:3-21:4

I read the above when I wish to know more about Revelation after Tsunami happen recently and I touched by the words. Do you feel the love of God? Hope you open your heart to feel it. : )

Meaning of Life

Before I have become a Christian, I felt my world is dull and I cannot even figure out why we suffer in the world that went through birth, old, sick and death (生，老，病 和死).

Everyday I see bird, three, flower and lot of God creation but everything seem normal and they should be there instead of appreciate God creation. After I get closer to God, perception has been change and I feel happy when the bird sings every early morning, I feel excite when I see plenty of three near my housing area and of cause I love flowers in the garden. I feel full of hope in the life just as same as the article I has uploaded. The world is wonderful!

Thank God!

God Bless You

Firstly I need to apologize for those friends that are not Chinese educated because I quite lazy to translate it. However, I will try to ask my sis in Christ in order to get an English version of this article afterward.

Well, in God kingdom I am still a baby that needs to learn a lot. Previously when I Previously when I faced some obstacles I could ask “Why always have bad things happen on me?”. A lot of doubts made me feel that God does not love me anymore.

Everything is just my assumption. God love us a lot just the matter we don’t know how to appreciate it included I myself. Actually, I have more than enough. I have food to eat everyday to avoid myself get starve, I have a house to stay and I can do a lot of things within the house with my family and of cause I have friends that do care about me and always give me moral support when I needed. Wow! What a wonderful life isn’t it?

When we happy we need to appreciate God and when we down we need to rely on God. I still remember Pastor Allen told us before, “We stop loving God because of face obstacle and forget whatever He blessed you before?”. Friends, please remember, God does not test us but satan is.

If you woke up this morning with more health than illness,you are more blessed than the million who won't survive the week.

If you have never experienced the danger of battle,the loneliness of imprisonment,the agony of torture orthe pangs of starvation,you are ahead of 20 million peoplearound the world.

If you attend a church meeting without fear of harassment,arrest, torture, or death,you are more blessed than almostthree billion people in the world.

If you have food in your refrigerator,clothes on your back, a roof overyour head and a place to sleep,you are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank,in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace, you are amongthe top 8% of the world's wealthy.

If your parents are still married and alive,you are very rare,especially in the United States.

If you hold up your head with a smileon your face and are truly thankful,you are blessed because the majority can,but most do not.

If you can hold someone's hand, hug themor even touch them on the shoulder,you are blessed because you canoffer God's healing touch.

If you can read this message,you are more blessed than overtwo billion people in the worldthat cannot read anything at all.

You are so blessed in waysyou may never even know.
