Looking up from the dust

"…or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads thee to repentance?" This verse has been a key verse on my mind this quarter of the year. I know I have many stubborn habits, and weaknesses that I keep giving in to, despite telling God so many times "this will be the last time,

Understanding, the prerequisite to obedience?

2007-03-12T20:58:00.000+08:00

I was pleasantly surprised to hear that Wei En, Ngee Zheng's friend veiled at the Lord's Supper yesterday. I remember being so scared as I explained to her and elaine (another one of Ngee Zheng's friends) on the teaching of head-covering.Its actually not easy for a guy to do so without having the fear that the sister who hears him won't feel 'offended' or 'oppressed'. I don't think the teaching

YA Welcoming / Graduation party 2007Well, finally Wen May and Danny (who didn't make it) are now in YA. We're glad to have them with us and hope to learn and experience much with them.Weng keet and suet nie planned some interesting games, one that went on through the night, and one funny game which needed some good cooperation between a blindfolded person, someone who can give directions, and

Modus vivendi

2007-02-22T14:58:00.000+08:00

Modus vivendi(a way of life)Forsake not His memory,"This do,... remember me".The bread and the chalice,Oh! The salvation gratis.His glories moral and divine,In joyful lays let us twine.Keep the hour of prayer,let it be thine own cloister.Confess thy sins when you pray,it keeps us safe from Satan's flay."Cast all thy cares upon Him",He cares for us, in times good and grim.Learn to be obedient,on

Looking Christ-ward

2007-01-14T23:11:00.000+08:00

The Christian stands in a unique place today. He (or she) stands at a vantage point in time where he can see Christ in any direction he looks:1. Looking backwardIsa 45:22 "Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else". The Christian looks back in time, and sees Jesus as the Lamb of God, on the cross, there bearing the burden we would have to bear,

Israel legalises same-sex marriages!

2006-11-22T15:30:00.000+08:00

I never thought it would happen, but I should have known better.Israel, God's covenant-people, to whom were 'entrusted the oracles of God (Rom3:2)' have now legalised same-sex marriages.Have they forgotten God's view of those who 'change the natural use into that which is against nature (Rom1:26)'? Don't they know that '...knowing the ordinance of God, they that which practise such things are

Why aren't you a christian?

2006-11-16T23:39:00.000+08:00

What makes you think twice (or more) about putting your trust in Jesus for salvation?

gospel meeting

2006-11-12T22:25:00.000+08:00

I wonder if God is telling me something when no non-believers turn up for gospel meeting, especially on the day the I'm sharing the gospel?does God think the message i prepared was useless for the Holy Spirit to use?I know I'm not to be disheartened. But the thought is a real 'bee in my bonet'.

YA Retreat

2006-10-26T17:08:00.000+08:00

I had a great time on Tues and Wed. when our Young Adults when to Sg Congkak for our retreat. I want to thank Irene, connie, jia mun, chee hao and those who helped them for helping us with the food. Isn't it wonderful that even though we had more people than expected, none went hungry.It was a rather wet retreat, and though i would have preferred it to be drier, i almost forgot that i did pray to

Ruth's gone! Sob Sob

2006-10-26T17:06:00.000+08:00

I'm so sad. I had to give my dog away. My beautiful 5mth old Golder Retriever which i named Ruth.Can't believe how attached i became to her in those short months. She greets me in the morning with her wagging tail and smiley eyes and mouth. She greets me when i get back from work and sits patiently while i close the gate and then rushes at me and hugs my leg.I gave her away coz Chin Ai and me

Keeping track of blogs

2006-10-21T08:55:00.000+08:00

If you use the Firefox browser, did you know you can easily keep track of people's blogs? You can create what is called a 'Live bookmark' and it'll update itself with latest posts on the blog. One built-in example is the 'Latest Headlines' bookmark you see on the browser.How do I set it up?1. Go to the blog you want to keep track of2. In the address bar, if you see an 'orange' icon at the right

What's more powerful than nuclear power?

2006-10-17T13:27:00.000+08:00

More countries are capable of producing weapons grade nuclear power these days. We have to come to terms with that. There was a time when only a few countries had long range missiles and they were viewed as dangerous, now most countries have it. The same will happen with nuclear-powered countries. It is a sad reminder to all of us, that as human beings, we are just incapable of handling 'power'.

Singapore food

2006-10-16T21:48:00.000+08:00

Hey who said singapore food tastes bad?I had dinner in a restaurant (how many of still pronounce this rest-or-runt instead of rest-ront?) in singapore and ordered 'shanghai style claypot chicken', 'seaweed soup' and 'mixed vegetables'. I didn't have much high hopes for the quality but it turned out to be delicious! in fact, more delicious that many restaurant i've had in KL!So singapore food

Building His temple

Haggai 1:4"Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your cieled* houses, while this house lieth waste?"*Cieled: PanelledAs the verse was read in its clarity a few weeks ago by Jupe, a shiver ran down my spine. The same shiver I get when the Holy Spirit wants me to "wake up and smell the coffee".Having just moved to my own house about a year ago, i remember how much effort i had to put in :

Prerequisites of understanding the Fear of the Lord Prov 2:1-4

2006-08-09T09:33:00.000+08:00

1. (2:1) Receive His words - requires humility and a teachable heart. It also means having to confess that we are not as wise as we think we are2. (2:1) Lay them up in us (remember them) - requires belief and faith in His truths3. (2:2) Incline thine ear - willingness / be attentive to listen to wisdom4.

It only takes four

2006-07-19T16:33:00.000+08:00

I just noticed that the same people who very politely line up to enter the Putra LRT are the same people who push and shove when trying to enter the KTM Komuter? This is a phenomenon! Why does it happen? I don't know.But i did notice, that we can change this. It only takes four people to start it. There was once (a very rare occasion indeed) that people did line up to enter the Komuter, and it

Simplicity - the beauty of the new testament church

2006-07-11T18:16:00.000+08:00

I was so delighted in my meditation today as I spent a few minutes considering the simplicity of how the Lord Jesus has instituted His church. A few things that crossed my mind, i'm sure its not exhaustive:1. the simplicity of the meetings When the church is gathered, the Holy Spirit is in charge. He decides who prays, who shares the gospel, who offers a hymn, who starts the meeting. So there

Busy bees

2006-07-11T17:51:00.000+08:00

Ah, it has been a long time time and so thank you for actually coming back to this blog to read it.I was musing on how the church of Christ in our present day has turned into a very 'busy' house. Which is good, because we are to be busy for the Lord. But with being busy, we must be wary of certain things.Too many young believers are 'pressured' into becoming busy like the rest, and are not given
