Mon, 10 Nov 2008 10:30:43 GMT

so exams are over..
i repeat..
OVER!!

hahaha..
itz so nice to finally sit back..

but not for long..
my mum was telling me that shez gonna MAKE(literally) me
revise form 4 this year so that next yr in form 5
i will b able to do well and have good foundation..

form 4 has not been all that smooth..
haha..
a few E's, D's here and there..
but God has been gracious..
and i did OK(i guess) for this exam..

hmm..
i have been reading up lots of biographies lately
Martin Luther, Martin Luther King
Florence Nightingale
Hudson Taylor, William Carrey
William Tyndale, David Livingstone..

and u knw wad?
this has actually kinda motivated me to go
do my degree (diploma or masters)
in mayb medicine or linguistics
b4 i head off to bible school..

i feel that missionaries today arent as prepared
as their predecessors..
but that doesnt make them less anointed..
just less privileged, in a sense that
in a world where ppl oni wanna knw wad u can giv,
and if u giv non-Christians the bible all the time
some of them will get pretty fed-up..

the olden days missionaries all had
medical degrees, linguistics degress, math degrees
engineering degrees, most at colleges and institutions if not self-trained...

these people were Pastors, doctors, builders, plumbers, engineers,
bible translators etc.

it made such a BIG impact..
look at China..
Hudson Taylor is down to his 4th generation now..
still in China as missionaries..
they speak FLUENT Chinese..
knw more Chinese culture den most Chinese do..
and Hudson himself translated the Chinese bible..

William carey,
self trained botanist, and linguist..
He translated God's word in
lotz of diff indian dialects..

imagine that..

so, i tink,
if i want God to use me..
i want Him to use a prepared me..
a me who will b able to use my talents to the fullest..
a me that will b able to serve under all circumstances..

so, i will start my revision..
tonite..
i will forgo Criminal Minds,
because, i have a greater calling..
den being a couch potato..
Amen?
hahaha

God is good,
All the time
He is good..

ALL THE SWEARING GOTTA STOP!!

Thu, 06 Nov 2008 15:53:32 GMT

I sumtimes wonder..

y do Christians swear?

y do we need to vent our displeasure in dat way?

y do we need to show others : SO WHAT?

i can say that too..TOOT..

How come?

I just had a convo with a Christian friend..

A Christian youth leader actually..

A good Christian leader..

one who I have come to respect a lot over the years..

I believe that person is a good Christian..

A faithful believer of the Word..

I do not doubt that this person has great faith in Lord Jesus Christ..

I do not doubt that this person is a good person..

But this friend of mine said a bad word..

TOOT..

I cringe..

SERIOUSLY,

I cringe when I hear bad words now..

Itz a phobia now..

I really do hate hearing ppl swear..

Honestly..

And this friend of my mine

Ok, I’ll reveal her sex..oops..gave that away..

Thatz all, no names k?

Haha..

She was venting on assignments and the F-bomb came out..

TOOT..

and so i said

no SWEARING around me..

seriously,

in my sch,

my frnz are careful to swear around me..

i make it clear..

I HATE

People CUSSING in front of me..

and sometimes they forget..

and i give them a "reminder"..

"PAP"..hehe

So i just casually told her off..

and she was quite unhappy(i perceive)..

she told me not to bring up religious talk and

told me to accept the reality that i cant go

around telling ppl wad to say and wad not to say..

My exact words were these:

Paul said, do not be conformed to the world.

Friends,

we as Christians shud never conform to the world..

in one way or another, we have conformed to the world..

i admit, my eating habits are not heavenly..=)

but the thing is..

there is no need to b offended..

and there is no need for swearing..

u may say

oh, this is who i am

so "toot" yeah, u can kiss my "toot" and

go rant ur "toot" elsewhere..

frm a non-Christian, i will (sadly and grievously) accept it..

But from a Christian,

im sorry to say, i cant accept this..

i distinctly rmb Jesus said

be in the world, but not of the world..

yes, my dear friend,

i realise that i cant make the world revolve around me..

but when the whole world around me is swearing..

i do not revolve around the world..

do u understand?

im not being sarcastic..

im saying this from a believers view..

a friends view..

im not correcting u out of spite..

im correcting u out of love..

God help me,

i feel so discouraged..

so so so discouraged..

y do Christians swear?

is it cool?

NO!!

itz far from cool..

itz like -100 on my cool-o-meter

dun tell me itz who u r..

the world sees us by our actions..

no non-christian will not care who u r..

d world goes round too fast..

they are too indulged in their own lives..

they see ur outwardness..

and when Christians get too indulged in our life..

there is a hokkien phrase..

CHAM LOR

so if our outwardness is contradicting the Word,

den wad is our testimony?

i m being convicted by writing this as well..

im not more holy den anyone..

i think i've been in deeper sin den my non-Christians b4..

but i know Christ has forgiven me..

my dear friend,

i respect u..

i alwayz have..

and im saying this out of kindness..

hope u understand the intention of my heart..

im not saying im a greater christian den u..

but i just want u to knw..

that i feel dat swearing less

is defintely a better testimony..

and as i talk the talk

im ganna walk the walk..

im not gonna say things like

Wad the crap

freaking <verb>

anymore

i refuse to poke my own shield with my own spear..

God help me..

im a great sinner..

so from now..

so dat i rmb

ALL THE SWEARING GOTTA STOP!!

i knw itz hard..

but

as 2 Corinthians 5:17 says..

If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation

Behold, the old has pass away and the new has come..

Amen to the grace of God

a recording deal (i tink)
a 3D2N stay at the Presidential Suite in Cinta Sayang Golf Resort..

ARRGGHHH!!
and who'd tink hick-a small town K.U.L.I.M
would produce a champion..

haha..
he beat contestants from Superstar and OIAM
over a 2 and half month period of competitions..
They started off with 100++ ppl..
and came down to the final 10 and den the final 5

but niwayz..

back to the rest of the week..
we are having 5 days break..
so im quite free..
shhh dun let my mum see this..
she will keeeel me..=)

i met a group of really really interesting ppl last week..
they were from a Johor Christian drug rehab centre, House of Hope..
and they are such a good testimony..
they reach out to drug addicts all over malaysia..
they were so fun to b around..
and they r realy great..

for instance, when Kota Tinggi was flooded last year..
they were the ones that helped out all the victims..
they rescued countless ppl..
donated food and water..
and they dint even go in the newspapers..
the leader (a lady) refused any of her team to hold cameras
bcz she said that they were not doing it for fame..

the buddhist society Tzu Chi did one day..
they helped out in the flood for ONE DAY..
and they told the newspaper how hard it was..
the next day, they dint show up.

where as these ex-cons, ex-drug addicts..
they were the ones shining for Jesus..
they stuck by the whole 2 weeks..
never uttering any complains!!

Glory to God!God bless their souls..
What we do in secret, God shall openly reward...
i have really come to look up to these ppl..!!

I pray that their ministry will prosper!

There is no problem
Scott Wesley Brown

There is no problem too big
God cannot solve it
There is no mountain too tall
He cannot move it
There is no storm too dark
God cannot calm it
There is no sorrow too deep
He cannot soothe it
Chorus
If He carried the weight of the world
Upon His shoulders
I know my brother, that He will carry you
If he carried the weight of the world
Upon His shoulders
I know my sister, that He will carry you

He said: "Come unto Me
all who are weary
And I will give you rest."

my friends,
isn't wonderful?
if u had a God dat said the same things as my God?
no matter who u r..wad ur past is..
A God who loves u no matter wad?

no problem my friend..
no problem too big..
Trust in my Saviour..
