Puzzled

That's exactly how I feel right now.

No Faith Required

ShoweRevelation:
If life were perfect and went exactly as how we would plan it,
there would be no uncertainties.
Without uncertainties, there would be no faith required.
When there is no need for faith, there will be no testimonies of faith.
If we had no testimonies of faith,
how else would we tell of His faithfulness in our lives?

So are you called to a life of faith?

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."
Hebrews 11:1

"And without faith, it is impossible to please God because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."
Hebrews 11:6

What does it mean to be a man?

"A man is defined by what he produces and not what he consumes."

Watch and you'll understand the line above.

[You can watch this in HD, go to this YouTube link]

"You wanna marry a guy you want to have babies with, you don't want to marry a guy who's a baby."

"Guys don't take initiative cuz Christian guys don't want to fail, and if they don't try they can't fail, and by definition, that's a failure."

"John (the Baptist) shows us what a real man is. He's filled with the spirit, he humbly prepares the way for Jesus, he's an evangelist who makes it his life's work to introduce others to Jesus. He's a man who, ultimately, is a giver, not a taker. He's a producer, not a consumer."

"You want to be creators and cultivators. If you want to image God, God as a creator and a cultivator:
you create a marriage and you cultivate that woman;
you create a child with her and you cultivate that child;
you create a new family legacy for generations and you cultivate it;
you create a business and you cultivate it;
you create a ministry and you cultivate it.

Want to be a man? You're a creator and a cultivator.
You're a producer, not a consumer. You're a giver, not a taker. You bring life, not death. You're not looking for the path with least resistance, you're looking for the path of greatest glory to God."

A-men!

Job match-making

Lately, JobsDB has been sending me Job Alerts pretty frequently. Is this a sign? *ooooo..* haha..

But look what they have matched me with.



Swimwear designer? Making me wonder: what in the world was my job criteria at that time?

Bear in mind, this was when I was first looking for a job - more than 2 years ago.

Maybe I was ambitious then. Haha.

I love Thee

My Jesus, I love Thee
My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine;
For Thee all the follies of sin I resign.
My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

I love Thee because Thou has first loved me,
And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree.
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

I’ll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death,
And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath;
And say when the death dew lies cold on my brow,
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

In mansions of glory and endless delight,
I’ll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright;
I’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow;
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

- William Ralph Featherston, 1864


I Love Thee, Lord.

1864 - switch the '8' and '6', flip the '6' upside down, and then you get? 1984!
That's right, I'm 25 years old. And that's okay. =)

Seeing beyond warna

Something got me thinking.

About us seeing beyond our colour.

If the real purpose of 1Malaysia, is for us to be united as a country, and see beyond the colour of our skin...

Then why should seeing a group of Chinese dudes together be a problem? Why would it be considered racial and not 1Malaysia-like?

Why should we say,

"Look, they are not muhibah,"

when we see only a particular ethnic group together?

Because whether the group consisted of

[Ali, Ahmad, Amin] OR [Abu, Muthu, and Ah Chong],

aren't both groups considered MALAYSIAN?

Because if you truly believed in seeing everyone as Malaysian, then your comment of

"Eh, why no 'dan lain-lain' in this blogpost? So not 1Malaysia.."

already proves that you're still seeing through 'coloured lenses'.


*I'd like to know if you think this makes sense. Let's talk this through.
