Beautiful Hands of Jesus

Wrote this poem on 11/9/08 at 11:05pm.
Would like to share it:

Beautiful hands of Jesus
Are the hands that heal
Hands that held a little child
Hands that gave
Hands that fed
Hands that fashioned and created
Hands that went through torture and pain
The scars on His hands
Are the beautiful hands that love.

Heaven and Hell as revealed to 7 Columbian Youths

This is a must read for everyone. The following links below contain accounts of 7 Columbian youths after Jesus took them to see Heaven and Hell.

Personally, I have been very much impacted by it in a positive way. All I know is, I want to live a life that honours God and I definitely want to go to heaven. What determines whether we go to heaven or hell is - whether we have excepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour and then live a life of obedience to His commandments. There is no such thing as small or big sin. Sin is sin in the eyes of God. Be prepared for some soul searching sessions with God after reading them. Please don't let that stop you from reading those accounts though.

Here are the links. Just click on them.

Faith in the Living God

God is my strength, my light and my salvation. I do not have to fear my enemies because God lifts me up above them. He hides me and sets my feet high upon a rock. My enemies can't get me. God never leaves me nor forsakes me. When the wicked come against me, they will stumble and fall. Therefore, I shall not be afraid. Because the LORD is the strength of my heart and my life.

God's purpose and plans for my life is YES and AMEN! No one can change or thwart that because Almighty God will fulfill all of it.

(Psalms 27)

I'm Back!

Hi! I'm back at last. After a long silence. Will try to post more this time round.

Walking by Faith

Last night, I went walking with a friend. She took her daughter and her dog with her. It was towards the end of the day and the sky was getting dark. By the time we were heading home, the sky had already turned dark. We had to take a short cut at one stage to get home quicker. The path that we took had no lights whatsoever - so it was pitch black. It was in a way scary. So we had to use the dog named Angel who happens to be white to help lead the way. The dog was in a way a source of protection as well. As we were going through that stretch of path, it reminded me of God's Word being a light & guide to our path and also a source of protection for us if we follow His Word. Most of all, it takes faith to let the Word of God guide us as many times we can't see where we are going but God can. It can be a scary journey whether long or short. But the bottom line is that as long as we have the Word of God to lead and guide us, then we are sure to be safe.

Loving God

I used to think that by just serving God, I am loving Him. That is, until recently. I realised that in a healthy & thriving relationship between 2 people, there needs to be the giving and receiving of love. That is the same with God. The most impacting thing that God spoke to me was that He loves us through people He sends our way. I mean, I know that theologically but it never really sunk in to my heart in a practical sense, until now. At the same time, I know I have been putting up walls around my heart so I won't get hurt. Never did me any good by doing that. But I thank God for His loving kindness toward me in that He has been showing me the blessed way to live life. At times it was painful, but yet after a "heart surgery", I come out a better person. Learning to love - to really love has been a challenge for me as I grew up with a lot of pain and hurt in my life. Having to open myself up to people was a scary thing to do, but once I overcame that fear of rejection, it is the most liberating thing ever. Therefore, I encourage anyone who's facing the same thing that I've gone through, to not be afraid to learn to love. Because, love casts out all fear and there's no fear inside of love.

Jesus and me. 

Haven't written for a while.

Hmm...haven't written in here for a while. Do have more thoughts to write. Will be writing soon.

A Freak Accident

A Freak Accident.

How does God use us to minister into the lives of others?

Does God only use what we have gone through, to minister to others who are going through similar situations. Does God stop short at that? I think not. I believe God can use us to minister into the lives of others even without us having to go though what others are going through. God is the one who knows exactly what the other person is going through. He wants His servants to partner with Him in bringing deliverance to those who are in need. The challenge for us all (His servants, including myself) is this - are we willing to lay aside our time to intercede for someone until we see a breakthough in their lives not matter how long it may take? Are we willing to put aside our lives in answering to His call to care for the person He puts in our hearts to care for? My encouragement to us is this - Let us be God's hands and feet in bringing healing and deliverance into the lives of people whom He loves and care for. Heavenly Father is eagerly awaiting the return of the prodigals. Jesus Christ is longing for the return of His Bride - the Church. Let us listen to God's heartcry.

Want to share something that I believe is God's heartcry for His people. Wrote this song on 7/4/99 at 11:40pm and 11/4/99 at 10:30pm. It's called THE HEART OF CHRIST.

The heart of Christ,
Is full of compassion, mercy and love.
To have the heart of Christ,
Would we be able to carry it
With our human heart?
Would we be able to bear the pain
That He feels for His beloved Bride,
When she goes astray?
Drifting further and further away from His grace?

Return, return, My Love
My beautiful bride.
How I long to see your face
And hear your sweet voice.
Turn, turn away from your wicked ways.
Oh! How My heart longs for the return of My Bride
My precious, precious Bride.

Is there one, among you
Who hear the beating of My heart?
Is there one, among you
Who would call out to My bride,
To return to her First Love?

Blessed are those who hear the beating of My heart.
Blessed are those who feel the pain in My heart.
Blessed are those who heed the calling of My heart,
Blessed are those who heed the calling of My heart,
And return to Me.

Precious Stones

Just felt to write a poem reflecting the different aspects of God's love.

Discovering the Love of God,
Is like discovering precious stones.
The many facets of beauty and splendour,
How beautiful it is.
The sparkle and the shine,
Blue, green, red and gold.

What is Righteousness?

This website http://www.crossroad.to/Bible_studies/Wardrobe/chapter3.html is a worth a read. Explains the topic well.

Many of us struggle with understanding the meaning of righteousness and living in righteousness. I've come to realise that it is possible to live in righteousness not in my own strength but through the help of the Holy Spirit. Day by day, God is helping me to become more like Him. It's been a long and difficult journey, but all worth it. This does not mean I've arrived yet though, the road is still a long one.

Thank You My King and Shepherd for leading me beside still waters and peaceful pastures. You have been My strength and My shield. Thank You Jesus for being My friend. I love you, Lord. I love You, My Heavenly Father - Daddy.

The Time of Waiting

Waiting for a future spouse to show up can be a difficult time. What do you do during that time? Is there a reason for that time? I believe there are.

As difficult as it may be during that time, I believe there are things God wants to work in the hearts of both our future spouse and ourself, in the face of soaring divorce rates, marriage breakdowns and adulteries - personally, I do not want to be part of those statistics.

From a woman's perspective, I would want to marry a man who knows how to treasure me even before we start our courtship. I believe that during this time of waiting, God wants us women to allow Him to work in the heart of our future spouse - that he'll keep his heart for us, work in areas of his character that needs changing, show him the plans and purposes God has for him and how to be a true prince.

God wants to work in our own hearts too. He wants to mould us into women who would see the plans and purposes God has for our husband's life fulfilled. We are to be his helper. God wants to work in our character as well. Most of all, God wants us to fully surrender our lives to Him. If not, we would tend to want things our own way and not learn submission.

He also wants us to do good to our husband all the days of our lives (that includes the time while we're still single). Proverbs 31:12 says, "She does him good and not evil all the days of her life". Hmm...if God aspects this of the wife, I believe it would be the same for the husband as well. Besides, God did tell us to love one another.

What are we to do while wating faithfully?
- Serve the Lord wholeheartedly,
- Pray for our future spouse and ourselves - that we would love God totally, walk in His ways and have the fear of the Lord in our lives. That we would be people of integrity, self-controlled, pure in heart, not given to lust or immorality and flee from temptations. That we have a discerning heart, be sensitive and obedient to God etc.
- Learn how to care for children and cultivate homemaking skills (start now, if you haven't already).
- Most importantly, surrender our whole life to God.
