Songs in love with JESUS

2012-01-23T13:29:00.004+08:00

Songs sang in praise are a uplifting source for the meek souls to revive. Let there be light in our lives and God's love shine throughout this shrewd world...let Christians shine in Christ's light!

Patsy Cline sang many sweet songs till her death, and I am privileged to hear them too..she made my heart to feel peace...

God have been so faithful and all of us are overjoyed with budding testimonies among the brethren. Each week passes by swiftly and we are blessed by just hearing the word of God and the impact it has to some of the faithful children of God! Thank you Father for another year of favour!

I will continue to stand by my FATHER and my FATHER by me..

When the storms of life are raging,
Stand by me (stand by me);
When the storms of life are raging,
Stand by me (stand by me);
When the world is tossing me
Like a ship upon the sea
Thou Who rulest wind and water,
Stand by me (stand by me).

In the midst of tribulation,
Stand by me (stand by me);
In the midst of tribulation,
Stand by me (stand by me);
When the hosts of hell assail,
And my strength begins to fail,
Thou Who never lost a battle,
Stand by me (stand by me).

In the midst of faults and failures,
Stand by me (stand by me);
In the midst of faults and failures,
Stand by me (stand by me);
When I do the best I can,
And my friends misunderstand,
Thou Who knowest all about me,
Stand by me (stand by me).

In the midst of persecution,
Stand by me (stand by me);
In the midst of persecution,
Stand by me (stand by me);
When my foes in battle array
Undertake to stop my way,
Thou Who savèd Paul and Silas,
Stand by me (stand by me).

When I’m growing old and feeble,
Stand by me (stand by me);
When I’m growing old and feeble,
Stand by me (stand by me);
When my life becomes a burden,
And I’m nearing chilly Jordan,
O Thou “Lily of the Valley,”
Stand by me (stand by me).

Glorious 2012!

It's approaching near...

2011-12-18T01:59:00.003+08:00

The long awaited day is approaching close and all God's children are in jubilant for the coming 25th this month. I would like people to listen to a beautiful song i know of recent, which brought a sheer joy in this wretched heart of mine...Thank you Jesus!

Oh, little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Yet in the dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven

No ear may hear His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him still
Our dear Christ enters in

Yet in the dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

sing along ...

Beautiful ensemble...

That's Why I Can Thank You
I was by the wayside when you found me.
Locked up in the chains that long had bound me.
There you put your loving arms around me,
And broke away the chains and set me free.

Lord, you've brought to me your wondrous victory,
You've placed within my soul a new reality.
That You're the one and only one true God for me.
And that's why I can thank you, Lord.

Chorus:
That's why I can thank you.
That's why I can thank you.
That's why I can thank you, Lord.
You have done so much for me,
Since you came and set me free.
That's why I can thank you, Lord.

You gave me a song to keep within my heart.
It helps to chase away the devil's fiery darts.
With each day you give to me a brand new start.
And that's why I can thank you, Lord.

Chorus:
That's why I can thank you.
That's why I can thank you.
That's why I can thank you, Lord.
You have done so much for me,
Since you came and set me free.
That's why I can thank you, Lord.
That's why I can thank you, Lord.

Extra Verse:
When You gave your life for me upon the cross,
You made a living sacrifice for all the lost.
The precious blood you shed that day has paid the cost.
That's why I can thank you, Lord.

lyrics by Evang Reece and Marjorie Reece.

Blessed God in Heaven!

Standing on the promises....

2011-10-24T19:42:00.005+08:00

Standing on the promises of Christ my King,
Through eternal ages let His praises ring,
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.
- Refrain:
  Standing, standing,
  Standing on the promises of God my Savior;
  Standing, standing,
  I’m standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises that cannot fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
By the living Word of God I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises I now can see
Perfect, present cleansing in the blood for me;
Standing in the liberty where Christ makes free,
Standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God.
Standing on the promises I cannot fall,
List’ning every moment to the Spirit’s call,
Resting in my Savior as my all in all,
Standing on the promises of God.

sing along and be blessed!

Dreaming It

2011-09-26T09:26:00.006+08:00

It was early Friday morning, it was in my dream, where my friend Maria and I were rushing to a bridal shop. Both of us are already in white bridal gowns and we are about to get a perfect make up for our day that early morning. In the dream, Maria was saying she wants her theme colors to be maroon from lipstick color to flowers and myself opt for pink. wow..our hearts were happy and excited at that very moment in my dream. A while after, I woke up from my dream, I did my ablution and prayed. I left for work and met up with Maria before noon. She has been fasting that morning and said lets go to church. We drove to an old chapel of Our Lady of Good Health. As i stepped into the chapel, i saw a lady praying, a man and a boy arranging flowers near the altar. Maria and I sat and prayed silently. We took the holy water and thanked God for leading us the rightful ways always and to bless our health. I was asking Maria if there are any special occasions this weekend for Catholics. She just looked at the people decorating the altar. We bowed and about to leave the chapel, when we saw the marriage stands for bride and groom was placed before the altar. Wow, i felt happiness in my heart. At that moment, i recalled the dream i had that very morning to Maria. Jokingly said we are brides to Jesus as we left the chapel feeling a moment full of hope and love. Thank you Holy God.

God be the judge..

2011-09-22T07:53:00.003+08:00

God thank you for your grace and to make me to see another beautiful day. This morning, in my heart, i felt that at times i have to change some situations in order to see another door opening. a door of hope. a door of love, a door of seeing beyond human comprehensions. In this life, at times i feel what i always rationalize is the right and justified ways, but when we open up and say out what's in our hearts then we realize, not all things are seen that away by another. in fact, our closest friends or members of our family will have completely a different view on things we justify right in our eyes. God, give me strength to have your wisdom and pray that you have mercy.
Self righteousness and selfishness in our attitudes can keep away the blessings from coming our way. Let us not judge because He's perfect and all His ways are pure and holy.

Romans 14:1-13

New Living Translation (NLT)

Romans 14
The Danger of Criticism
1 Accept other believers who are weak in faith, and don’t argue with them about what they think is right or wrong. 2 For instance, one person believes it’s all right to eat anything. But another believer with a sensitive conscience will eat only vegetables. 3 Those who feel free to eat anything must not look down on those who don’t. And those who don’t eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, for God has accepted them. 4 Who are you to condemn someone else’s servants? They are responsible to the Lord, so let him judge whether they are right or wrong. And with the Lord’s help, they will do what is right and will receive his approval.

5 In the same way, some think one day is more holy than another day, while others think every day is alike. You should each be fully convinced that whichever day you choose is acceptable. 6 Those who worship the Lord on a special day do it to honor him. Those who eat any kind of food do so to honor the Lord, since they give thanks to God before eating. And those who refuse to eat certain foods also want to please the Lord and give thanks to God. 7 For we don’t live for ourselves or die for ourselves. 8 If we live, it’s to honor the Lord. And if we die, it’s to honor the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 Christ died and rose again for this very purpose—to be Lord both of the living and of the dead.

10 So why do you condemn another believer[a]? Why do you look down on another believer? Remember, we will all stand before the judgment seat of God. 11 For the Scriptures say,

“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bend to me,
and every tongue will confess and give praise to God.[b]’”

12 Yes, each of us will give a personal account to God. 13 So let’s stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall.

My God, my Father

My heart was burdened so heavily since last thursday. It was something of past reflected to me again. Something i hoped and wished have been solved and taken control of, but no, the feelings came creeping into me again. Now, I know I have to get down on my knees and let GOD take control of the issue once and for all! I cried onto Him. I praised Him. GOD of all good things only have good thoughts for us and to see us prosper, and i know my Father is heavenly and His mercy endures forever. I am His obedient vessel. On saturday, my shoulders were so heavy laden. I was unable to carry up my hands like something so heavy was on me, at that moment I sensed something was amiss.I had a chat with my husband on saturday. I wasn't convinced on the said issue and he asked me to pray about it. Next day being Sunday,my son and I went to church. My pastors morning dose sermon touched me deeply. He said...cast all your needs and problems unto the Lords feet! yes! After seconds, the Holy spirit came upon her. GOD spoke saying not to carry our problems along with us back home but to tell Him, GOD said, go to my altar and I will bless you....I know He have answered my problems...Hands raised,tears kept rolling down my cheeks and praises were given to the most High GOD. Thank you..

In such a time as this...

Good morning September!

2011-09-05T12:51:00.005+08:00

September is the 9th month in this year. We have entered a month of blessings and testimonies to the glory of God. All i need to do is always remember to give thanks to my GOD and praise HIM for all good things He have done and planned ahead for us. Our church rejoiced with several testimonies by members who have seen in dreams,visions and encountered positive and negative sides throughout last month of August being a fasting and praying period for the church.
My church pastor emphasized that we should be concentrating on Genesis 1:31 for this month of September as it is written 'very very good' in all things concerning our lives.
I gave my testimony and quoted my Father's book Psalm 66:20..
Blessed be God,
Who has not turned away my prayer,
Nor His mercy from me!

Indeed, it has been much grace from above and all glory due for Him will always be rendered to my master. Thank you Jesus..
we give GOD the utmost joy and praises and will continue to be his vessel in now and in future to evangelize souls to be delivered and saved from succumbing to evil agendas of the world.

the Test

2011-09-01T15:24:00.004+08:00

I am not denying and will not ignore what i saw in my dreams this morning. We finished our 31 days of fasting and praying in my church. We praised in spirit and listened to sermons, alas finally my main church overseer said we might see and hear unwanted things and will be tested in various ways but our merciful and just GOD will surely see us through any difficult and impossible feats we will undergo, all because His thoughts are of good only...

Back to my dream, in the midst of some things i saw, it was so visible and clear that i saw a pitch black hooded figure and shallow but faceless but in the area i saw clearly fiery colored numbers of triple six. i know the evil is trying to show itself, but i know GOD is powerful and able to put the devil under HIS feet.

i prayed and bound that i have seen so visibly. I related this to my husband but not to my pastor yet. My husband said i thoroughly need to pray and be vigilant at all times. This I believe what I have seen and rejoiced a week from yesterday when I saw a glance of Jesus, am seeing a negative side of evil. Jesus is the conqueror and my Saviour. All else are mere tests..

I knew I have seen Him.
Thank you Father in Heaven for answering my prayers all the time and let your light guide me forever more.

Our church called Goshen Christian Centre is currently observing fasting and praying for breakthrough and God's divine intervention in all areas of our lives. With the dwindling state of economy and social shocks, we are determined that God's portion is ours too. God will not forsake His children who truly hope and believe in Him only. I totally believe that God will surely meet my hearts desires and needs during this period and praying all our lives are covered with the precious blood of Jesus Christ.I absolutely would still be a Christian....

Thank you God and we love you..

“I had only heard about you before,

but now I have seen you with my own eyes.”

Job 42:5

My flight was smooth. It was sheer pleasure to see my husband at the airport. We checked in at Asia Plaza Hotel at the city centre. It costs US40/ per night but it was worth it. The room was spacious for two and clean. The bath was nice and i loved the service too. On Sunday, I went to the nearest church near my hotel called the Immaculate Heart Cathedral. It was so serene. After service, i took the time to check out the church shop. I bought some cds and souvenirs. Then, i smelled something delicious. It was mohinga a traditional Burmese food and coffee. It costs only 300kyatts. It was done voluntarily to collect fund for women at the church. I met a lovely soul at the place. Her name is Little Flower@Shreya Pushpa Lazar.I fell in love with her friendly attitude and honest ways. She invited my husband and I to her house for dinner. We went and had a good time talking and exchanging views. It was sweet of her to get me 'yoghurt vadai' to take back to my hotel that night. I was full of praises for her that night and thanked God for showing me someone from my own origin and of same beliefs in a strange land. She invited me to join the morning mass at 6am the next morning. I was there late but enough to say my prayers and was again delighted to meet her. She took me for breakfast and around market streets to buy some stuffs for me to take back home. She also was so nice to prepare vege mohinga for me for lunch before we prayed and bade farewell. I left Yangon with a satisfied heart and Thanked GOD for showing me good people and new things.

I will miss my husband but believe not for long again.

Stand up for Jesus

2011-08-09T09:30:00.005+08:00

Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not suffer loss:
From vict'ry unto vict'ry
His army shall He lead,
Till every foe is vanquished
And Christ is Lord indeed.

Stand up for Jesus
Ye soldiers of the cross;
Lift high His royal banner,
It must not, it must not suffer loss.

Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
The trumpet call obey;
Forth to the mighty conflict
In this His glorious day.
Ye that are men, now serve Him
Against unnumbered foes;
Let courage rise with danger.
And strength to strength oppose.
Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
Stand in His strength alone;
The arm of flesh will fail you;
Ye dare not trust your own.
Put on the Gospel armor,
And, watching unto prayer,
Where duty calls, or danger,
Be never wanting there.
Stand up! stand up for Jesus!
The strife will not be long:
This day the noise of battle,
The next the victor's song;
To him that overcometh
A crown of life shall be;
He, with the King of glory,
Shall reign eternally.

Our church have begun the eight month of the year with fasting and prayers. We have faith that God in heavens is going to pour HIS showers of blessings and let our hearts desires and needs be met in Jesus name.
Thank you God!

Uncle Jhonson,Maria and I boarded a transnasional bus enroute to Kangar,Perlis. It's about 6 hours journey up north from KL. As we reached Kangar bus station, a cold wind swept by as it was raining that morning. I can smell sea. And I was happy!
As soon we reached Aunty Mary's house, we hit the bed. We woke up four hours later and had breakfast. Then, we placed our bags in Avanza and headed towards Bukit Mertajam. Along the way, I saw vast paddy fields and swallow houses. I love the picture of serenity and calmness in Perlis. I saw Kodiang Mount afar surrounded by lush green fields. Men on bicycle,ducks swimming in the irrigation line.Neat village houses here and there.We ate at a friend's place and stayed for a night for St Anne's Feast and Novena. At the church, we carried lighted candles and prayed to God for our desires and needs to be met. As I did, the church bell rangs and i felt my heart dancing joyfully inside of me. Thank you God!
The next day, we drove to Penang. The island of Penang is one of my favourite in Malaysia.The streets are clean, the weather was cool,the people friendly and the beaches are lovely. We put a night at EQ Ferringhi Hotel, Batu Ferringhi. We unpacked and headed straight to the famous beachfront called Ferrighi One. It was one of the good moments we had, a far cry from the hectic life in KL. The next day, we went around the island to Penang Hill, Batu Maung War Museum,Gurney Drive,Buddha Temple and took the ferry instead to the mainland before heading to Kangar. I felt peace inside of me that day. I also drove past the Palace of Raja Perlis in Arau before we bid goodbye to Perlis for the 11pm night bus.

GOD HIGHLY BLESS FAMILY OF JESSLINA,JOSHUA AND JAYNIXON.
GOD BLESS MARIA.
GOD BLESS ALL WHO BELIEVETH IN JESUS AND IN HIM ONLY. AMEN.

Let our names be called up in Heaven..

When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair;
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

Refrain

When the roll, is called up yonder,
When the roll, is called up yonder,
When the roll, is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder I’ll be there.

On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the glory of His resurrection share;
When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

Refrain

Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun,
Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care;
Then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

Refrain

You Are Someone Special - One Woman's Journey of Faith

Everyone has a life to live and the sooner we have the confidence to hand it over to the Lord to orchestrate, the more we enjoy it! To have the understanding that "God has our best interests at heart" brings peace that really does "pass all understanding" Philippians 4:7. It took me a long time to fully embrace that truth. I trust that my story will encourage you to seek the Lord early in your life - He is the anchor of my soul, my confidence in the future and my assurance of Everlasting life.

Higher Levels 2011

2011-07-10T21:25:00.009+08:00

MICF, my main church located in Ipoh Road, KL have successfully organized its first christian retreat, since its existence 15 years ago for their interested members and non members from 8-10th July 2011. It was a wonderful and a relief from our daily city life experience in KL at the camp.

We drove to MBS (Malaysian Bible Seminary) Training and Recreation Centre located LOT 727 & 728, JALAN KUNDANG, 48040 KUANG.
The center had a huge swimming pool, indoor stadium, cycling, tracks ,huge dorms,bathrooms,library,chapel,conference rooms,gym,canteen,chalets,family rooms,cabins etc.
We settled to our dorms at 4pm. The small kids were enjoying their pool times and the adults joined in the excitement too till 6.45 when dinner was served.
At 8pm, all of us moved on to chapel to worship and praise HIM.

We adjourned to our rooms after 12am.

Next day, we completed our ablution and assembled for morning devotion at the chapel at 6.30am. We ate breakfast and were told to get prepared to aboard a bus to the soccer field for a match between our three branch churches i.e. Bethesda CC, Goshen CC and Reconciliation CC.
The day was sunny and my branch church, Goshen CC managed to win the Cup. Yippee and Hallelujah!

As all of us were exhausted from the cheering and photo shooting, we took rest of the evening to nap and some of us even jumped into the pool. Dinner was served at 7pm. After which, we marched to the chapel for evening prayers and worship.

Consequently, a visiting pastor from Uganda blessed our lives for the day. A few of our members were also baptised in water by our overseer Pastor Aloy in the pool.

On Sunday, all of us gathered at the chapel for morning worship and fellowships. Few performances were arranged by Pastor Michael via the teens and children in our churches . It graced and enlivened our insights and outlooks on our christian lives.
After preaching by the Pastors on the motives lined out to reach Higher Levels , praising and glorifying the body of Christ, we observed the holy communion. Then, we walked harmoniously to the canteen to have our lunch at 12pm. We prayed and said grace and packed our bags and left the camp retreat at 1pm.

I was totally blessed by the Holy Spirit and I can never forget the wonderful moments I spent with my Pastors, brothers,sisters and family. Thank You Jesus for this special retreat arranged for your children who trust and loves you.

LORD hear my prayers...

2011-07-07T08:11:00.003+08:00

Lord Hear My Prayers

When I was beset with troubles in life
I have no one to turn to in this world
Though I know that someone in heaven watches
Waiting for me to open up my heart

Many times that I have wondered
Am I worthy to call upon Your name?
For great is Your love and mercy
And I am just Your lowly servant

You were there for me at all times
Shedding away the tears from my eyes
As I look in Your heavenly abode
Lord, You are so great to me!

I can not recall how many times I have failed You
Yet, You were there to hold me
Never have I felt that You've forsaken me
But gave me the strength to carry on

How much have I needed You in my life
In my prayers, Your compassion and love abounds
Still I am just Your child at all times
Needing Your guidance, my Father up above
You've provided everything I have dreamt of
More than what I have asked for
So much that I needed strength and wisdom
Not to fall from the wickedness of this world

You are the only one who really knows me
For in my prayers I feel Your presence
Comforting and touching my heart
Never have I felt so alone in my life

You're there with me in times of happiness
And in loneliness, You strengthen my soul
Guiding me in every moment of my life
As I journey in this world

When I stumbled, You've lifted me
With Your Holy Spirit that guides my way
To stray away from wickedness
Leading my path to righteousness

Lord, please hear my prayers
As I seek you now and always
I thank you Lord for all Your kindness
And acknowledge Your love and blessings everyday

Armour of GOD

2011-07-01T23:41:00.002+08:00

Today is the 1st of July 2011. I am starting this month with a spiritual warfare wearing the Armour of God. Combat moments are here and I am preparing myself from today to be strong in prayers against negative influences,talks,thoughts,sights or anything representing the evil notions in my life. Prayers to save souls, hopes, dreams, future and nations! Prayers to stay strong and of good courage. Prayers to shake the kingdom of heavens so it will and must be answered. Firstly, i truly Thank God for giving me the strength and boldness to go on winning the war!
I need spiritual guidelines and will learn from spiritual leaders and prayer warriors.

Fasten the belt of truth around your loins and stand firm in the word of God. God's Word is truth. Christians need to know the truth. We put on the belt as we learn God's truth. Wherefore, take courage in face of trials and difficulties that come against you and hold your ground (1 Peter 1:13; John 8:32).
Be sober and put on the breastplate of righteousness. We are called to be holy and righteous (Ephesians 4:24; 1 John 3:7).
Have your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace. Be at peace with all men and be in readiness to preach the good news of peace (Romans 5:1; John 16:33).
Use the shield of faith as a protection from the fiery darts of the enemy. We are to live by faith not by sight (2 Corinthians 4:16-18; Romans 1:17).
Put on the helmet of salvation. Jesus is our eternal salvation (Acts 4:12; Hebrews 5:9).
Take the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. Study the Word of God and apply it to your daily life. The Word is our defense and our protection. It will drive back the enemy (Satan) and he'll have to flee (Hebrews 4:12; 2 Timothy 2:15).

Thirsty Thursday!

Philippians 4:16-19 Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that increases to your credit. I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

I have to come to believe that all things in our lives happens for some peculiar and spectacular reasons. And I also believe that spirit of God is moving superbly around and in us at all times, either when we are deeply in praying mode or even simply when we are walking around the block! That's how powerful our living God was yesterday,is today and always tomorrow. I thank the divine Holy Spirit because it has to a level changed my mindsets and heart to view and feel God's presence to whole new realm in my life.
One of the stages are am more inclined and sensitive to some situations around me and tend to choose or decide the right one with. It does sound a little selfish though, but that's how the direction am heading and feel!
I am coming to know the existence of a young preacher called Manasseh Jordan. Yes! More will be known of him and thank you Holy Spirit for the word!

Amazing Saturday!

2011-06-04T09:24:00.003+08:00

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.

The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.

Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
a life of joy and peace.

When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

I was feeling composed with beautiful formations of white clouds from my seat window and smiled. Only thoughts of how glorious heaven is appeared to me, and immediately i heard an announcement from the captain that we are about to land at Yangon Intl Airport. My heart was full of content as I was about to meet up with my husband, after absence of 3 good months from each other.
Mostly, i spent time reading two worthy paperbacks i brought along and vowed to at least complete one of them. It was 'Welcome Holy Spirit' by Pastor Benny Hinn and 'Half the Sky' by Nicholas D Kristof and Sheryl Wu Dunn. I finished the last line from Pastor B Hinn's book on the day I departed from Yangon. I was happy and satisfied.
May God help my husband and I to strengthen our lives, relationship,marriage and families spiritually and faithfully till we meet our Father in the Kingdom of Heaven!
Thank you most gracious Holy Spirit!

A Prayer

2011-05-09T09:13:00.002+08:00

A MORNING PRAYER

O Lord, Almighty God and heavenly Father, even as Thou hast created us and given us life and placed us upon this earth to labor in trouble and sorrow until we return again to the dust from which we are taken, so hast Thou set the measure of our days that we may fear Thee and love Thee and serve Thee with our whole hearts. In Thy Fatherly goodness, Thou hast ordained the day for labor and the night for rest. So have we been refreshed by this night´s repose which Thou hast so graciously bestowed upon us, and we praise Thee from the depths of our hearts for Thy watchfulness and care.

Heavenly Father, we confess that we have not always heeded Thy loving kindness, but have misused Thy gifts, disobeyed Thy commandments, and neglected our duties. With words, deeds, and thoughts we have sinned against Thee. For this, O Lord, we humbly pray Thy forgiveness, through the shed blood of Jesus Christ, Thy dear Son.

O Heavenly Father, Thou hast granted us a new day. Help us to receive it as a gift of Thy grace. Teach us the reason why Thou maketh Thy sun to shine upon us, that we may live each day according to Thy will, prepared for that approaching eternal Day.

We pray, O Holy Father, that we might leave behind the night of sin and guilt and ever walk in the shining light of Thy wonderous grace, and cast off the works of darkness, put on the armor of light, and walk honestly as in the day.

Thou God of mercy, surround us with the light of Thy honor and glory. Thine eyes are flames of fire and every thought is known to Thee. We know that Thou rewardest good and punisheth evil, and therfore pray for grace to live each day in praise of Thee.

O Holy Father, even as Thou hast loved us, we pray that in love we might obey Thee. And being conscious of Thy great love toward us, we ask Thee to help us love our neighbor as ourselves. Keep us from anything that would mar this love, yea, that we might always deal honestly with our fellowmen.

Enable us to use Thy manifold blessings with moderation. Grant our hearts wisdom to avoid excess in eating and drinking and in the cares of this life. Teach us to put our trust in Thee, and to await Thy helping hand.

Give us a meek and contrite spirit, a penitent heart and true humility, yea, a hunger and thirst for Thy righteousness.

Grant us this day a pure heart, O God, to come before Thee. O Thou God and Father of Love and peace, give us Thy everlasting peace and favor that we may always prove ourselves a peace-loving people, shunning all anger and malice. And give us patience to cheerfully endure any misfortune or sorrow which Thou permittest, whether a cross or tribulation, shame or suffering. O Lord, our God and Creator, direct our lives accordng to Thy holy will. Into Thy hands, O God, we commit ourselves, body and soul, and all our loved ones; keep us always in Thy will. We ask Thy blessing for all mankind, especially upon those of the household of faith, wherever they may be scattered. We pray for those who would persecurçte and use us wrongfully. Forgive them, Lord, for they know not what they do.

We pray for the ministers of Thy church, for kings and for all that are in authority, and for all others for whom we ought to pray. O Lord, may they all receive and become partakers of Thy comfort and grace.

For this we pray, O holy Father, in the name of Thy beloved Son Jesus Christ, who has promised that Thou wilt hear us if we pray to Thee in His holy name, with devout and believing hearts. Our Father which art in heaven...

Thy loving countenance, O Lord, be over us by day and by night. Keep us beneath the shadow of Thy wings. Inspire, direct and bless us in all things, to Thy honor and glory.
Amen.

She is more precious than rubies.
¹¹ Her husband can trust her,
and she will greatly enrich his life.
¹² She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.

¹³ She finds wool and flax
and busily spins it.
¹⁴ She is like a merchant’s ship,
bringing her food from afar.
¹⁵ She gets up before dawn to prepare breakfast for her household
and plan the day’s work for her servant girls.

¹⁶ She goes to inspect a field and buys it;
with her earnings she plants a vineyard.
¹⁷ She is energetic and strong,
a hard worker.
¹⁸ She makes sure her dealings are profitable;
her lamp burns late into the night.

¹⁹ Her hands are busy spinning thread,
her fingers twisting fiber.
²⁰ She extends a helping hand to the poor
and opens her arms to the needy.
²¹ She has no fear of winter for her household,
for everyone has warm clothes.

²² She makes her own bedspreads.
She dresses in fine linen and purple gowns.
²³ Her husband is well known at the city gates,
where he sits with the other civic leaders.

and sashes to sell to the merchants.

²⁵ She is clothed with strength and dignity,
and she laughs without fear of the future.
²⁶ When she speaks, her words are wise,
and she gives instructions with kindness.
²⁷ She carefully watches everything in her household
and suffers nothing from laziness.

²⁸ Her children stand and bless her.
Her husband praises her:
²⁹ “There are many virtuous and capable women in the world,
but you surpass them all!”

³⁰ Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last;
but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised.
³¹ Reward her for all she has done.
Let her deeds publicly declare her praise

Psalm 23

A Psalm of David.

¹ The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
² He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
³ He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.

⁴ Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

⁵ You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
⁶ Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell^[e] in the house of the LORD
Forever.

Palm Sunday

2011-04-17T09:58:00.003+08:00

The Sunday before Easter is known as Palm Sunday. It celebrates Jesus' arrival in Jerusalem for the Jewish festival of Passover. Great crowds of people lined the streets waving palm branches to welcome him. The people were very excited. They spread branches on the road – and even laid down their clothes. They shouted 'Hosanna!' which means 'Save us Now!'

God have mercy!

Yangon- Revisited

2011-02-17T19:53:00.002+08:00

As my hubby is a footballer with a club in Yangon, i visited him during his 10 days break. It was the most sweetest moments that i can recall for now. Just clinging to him day and night..hmmm...not exactly but deep down my heart..thats how i felt and am happy for that feeling because as i left the airport on 15th..i clung to the memories instead.
My hubby was sweet cos he said i need to go somewhere nice for valentine, so he took me to Coffee Circles (CC), a trendy joint in mid-Yangon. Good music,cosy ambiance and loving the excellent servings.
So,our afternoon and night was at CC on that day. :)
Let me see..my hubby ate lamb shank and drank strawberry shake...i ate fried rice rolls,spaghetti veg and drank hot milk. then, at dinner , my hubby ate fish burger n fries and i ate fried rice rolls again with hot milk. the dessert was apple crumble tart and chocolate cashew cake...indeed a sweet val for me.

Happy Valentine to our loved ones around the world!

It was a good landing at Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport at 12.30am. the weather was so chilling though but we were excited of this particular trip. We entered a cab straight to Shenzen (SZ). The ride was smooth and we reached our hotel called Colourful Inn along Meilong Road after 2.5 hours.It costs about Renmimbi (RMB)350 with toll hikes. As it was on wee hours we immediately were ushered to our pre booked room, which cost Rmb148 via the net. The room was spacious and cosy. my husband was hungry and ordered food and received 2 packets of instant noodles from the caretaker of the place. The next day, we got a cab to the town and wanted to change some dollars to the local currencies(1US=6.65rmb). The weather was nice for a walk in town that afternoon in SZ. Unfortunately, it was a Saturday and most local banks doesn't operate their foreign exchange booths on weekends and we were advised to try the Bank of China instead. We managed to change the dollars and headed for late lunch at an eatery. It was 4pm and we felt hungry. I chose to eat soup noodles and my husband chose to eat only bean sprouts and seafood. He didn't favor the taste and opt to grab fried chicken at Kentucky Fried chicken(KFC) instead.I had Portuguese tarts for desert as takeaway from KFC too. We headed to our hotel after 7pm and voted to hit the bed early. The next morning, we had a meeting arranged at Futian, a huge town located about 20 minutes drive from our hotel on Sunday. After the meet up, we ate buffet lunch at Vienna Hotel. the food was fairly delicious. I ate fried rice with boiled egg,sweet potato yam,mushroom,tofu along with a cup of coffee. My husband also had a fried rice,chicken, sweet potato yam and a cup of coffee.
We bade goodbye to our friends and headed to our hotel. In the evening,we headed to town again and bought some things like children shoes,dresses and jeans from a night market. It was a good bargain and we enjoyed the night. We settled for a nice dinner at an eatery.
We decided to take a train to Guangzhou(GZ) via metro Guangshen CRH line.It costs rmb80 per person. the journey took about an hour and it was pretty comfortable and I enjoyed the views of some towns that we passed by like Shilong etc.
Once reaching GZ, we took a cab to place called Guang Xilu.Its a business zone for foreign traders on clothes,leather,makeup things,electronics and artificial jeweleries. The products are tailor made for some foreign markets and priced according to the factory rates.
We stayed at TongTong Hotel, which costs about rmb180 per night (inclusive of internet services). I was so hungry because i skipped my breakfast and lunch. I ate taiwanese food at a place called Blue&Sea, beside our hotel. My husband enjoyed a hearty meal at an African restaurant called Divine Africa Food!
The weather was getting more chilled in GZ. We had to buy some thick garments to keep warm. We enjoyed shopping for family and friends in places called Canaan Clothing Centre and Bole Trading Markets. the things were very reasonable and affordable in rates. After shopping for the day, we ate dinner and headed to our room.
Needless to say that GZ and SZ are neat and clean towns. Most of the people we associated with were also friendly and nice.The traffic was not too heavy as most are pedestrians and use bicycles as an easy mode of transportation. We also managed to send some goods we purchased as Christmas gifts via air cargo for a good price too.
Before we depart from China, I have decided to visit Canton Tower in GZ. It's the tallest tower in the world surpassing Toronto Tower in Canada. The opening ceremony of the tower was done in September 2010 in conjunction with the Asian Games in GZ and the ongoing Asian Para games now.
The flower decorations were magnificent and the climate was too cold. Nevertheless, we enjoyed snapping many shots and made some new friends also. We rushed back to the hotel and packed our bags to catch our flight back home.
Thank you, GZ.
It was a memorable journey for my husband and I before ending of 2010.

oh My beloved Saviour ,,,,do not pass me by this 2010....thank u God

2010-10-17T08:12:00.010+08:00

We were delighted to join and to decorate the church and the wedding cars too. The theme colors were gold and pink! It was a joyous and blessed wedding of the year and being the first wedding in Goshen Christian Centre,a special occasion not to be missed. And the groom is none other than GCC's only and own pastor i.e Pastor KC Ndeka and his sweet bride Blessing. Our church overseer Pastor Aloy conducted the rites and blessed the couple. After the ceremony, we headed to Grand Pacific Hotel for the reception.

It was all fun in the sun for my hubby and I as we landed in Suwarnahbumi Airport, Bangkok on monday,last week.
We really needed a break and glad to have made the trip.
We checked in at Khaosan Palace Inn located at the mid of Khaosan Road, a popular walking street among foreigners and locals alike.
We strolled along Susie Walking Street too and enjoyed a good foot massage and fish spa.
Sam joined in with us and we just enjoyed the sun in the day and rain during the nights.
We loved the vege spring rolls,tom yam and mushroom soup too, not forgetting the coconut shake.
We bid farewell to the country on a early morning flight to KL.
Thank God for safe journey mercy!

Holy Spirit

2010-06-28T23:47:00.003+08:00

Am deeply grateful to Jesus, son of God and Father in Heaven, to sent the Holy Spirit to baptize me on 25/6/10 and 26/6/10.
Am indebted to God,Jesus and the Holy Spirit for life.Amen.

Holy Ghost

the third Person of the Trinity

also referred to as “the Holy Spirit,” “the Spirit of Truth,” “Paraclete,” “a Comforter,” “the Counsellor,” “the Lord,” “the giver of Life,” etc.

His personality is proved…

…from the fact that the attributes of personality, as intelligence and volition, are ascribed to him (John 14:17, 26; 15:26; 1 Cor. 2:10-11; 12:11). He reproves, helps, glorifies, intercedes (John 16:7-13; Rom. 8:26).
He executes the offices peculiar only to a person. The very nature of these offices involves personal distinction (Luke 12:12; Acts 5:32; 15:28; 16:6; 28:25; 1 Cor. 2:13; Hebrews 2:4; 3:7; 2 Pet. 1:21).

His divinity is established…

…from the fact that the names of God are ascribed to him (Ex. 17:7; Ps. 95:7; compare Hebrews 3:7-11)
…and that divine attributes are also ascribed to him, omnipresence (Ps. 139:7; Eph. 2:17-18; 1 Cor. 12:13); omniscience (1 Cor. 2:10-11); omnipotence (Luke 1:35; Rom. 8:11); eternity (Hebrews 9:4).
Creation is ascribed to him (Gen. 1:2; Job 26:13; Ps. 104:30), and the working of miracles (Matt. 12:28; 1 Cor. 12:9-11).
Worship is required and ascribed to him (Isa. 6:3; Acts 28:25; Rom. 9:1; Rev. 1:4; Matt. 28:19).

Gift of Tongues

granted on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:4), in fulfillment of a promise Christ had made to his disciples (Mark 16:17)

What this gift actually was has been a subject of much discussion. Some have argued that it was merely an outward sign of the presence of the Holy Spirit among the disciples, typifying his manifold gifts, and showing that salvation was to be extended to all nations. But the words of Luke (Acts 2:9) clearly show that the various peoples in Jerusalem at the time of Pentecost did really hear themselves addressed in their own special language with which they were naturally acquainted (compare Joel 2:28,29).

Among the gifts of the Spirit the apostle enumerates in 1 Corinthians 12:10-14:30, “divers kinds of tongues” and the “interpretation of tongues.” This “gift” was a different manifestation of the Spirit from that on Pentecost, although it resembled it in many particulars. Tongues were to be “a sign to them that believe not.”
