云集会的圣餐

昨天组群里传来了一道信息:

  “2021年的线上聚会: 每个月的 第一周 将会有圣餐。请弟兄姐妹在家自备 饼和杯 ,我们将在线上一起领用圣餐,记念主耶稣基督 🍷🥖🙏❤️”




自从云集会后就无法领用圣餐了,收到信息后立马就动手做无酵饼,掺了一汤匙天然酵母糊,加入面粉,揉了一小面团,擀平,在平锅盘里烤。






一汤匙的天然酵母面糊,加入面粉和少许盐,揉成面团,在平底锅干炒。

第一片,太大!儿子吃了[哈哈] 他说好吃还想要!

第二片,还是有点大,感觉还是怪怪的。。。好像少做了一点什么来着。。。[费解]

第三片,忽然想起以前做无酵饼用叉子在面皮上刺了许多洞,这样就不会气泡鼓起来。



第四片,觉得每一次就只有我们俩,那么久切成小小的长方形,这次PERFECT!完美了![舔屏]


圣餐的意义是叫我们纪念耶稣基督为我们牺牲自己。


「林前11:24」 祝谢了,就擘开,说:“这是我的身体,为你们舍的(“舍”有古卷作“擘开”)。你们应当如此行,为的是记念我。”

满满的❤️

Holy Communion Unleavened Bread

 Tomorrow is the first Sunday of 2021, from a WhatsApp chat group received a message from church announcement:

"Zoom service in 2021: There will be holy communion on Every first week of the month. Kindly prepare your own bread and cup at home, as we will partake in the Holy Communion together online this week in remembrance of Jesus Christ."

 

 

There are some brands of biscuits usually used by churches for this purpose, we are using homemade unleavened bread, sometimes I helped to prepare dough, another sister will fry it on a flat pan. Because of this experience, I thought, I should make a small piece of dough for tomorrow. 

I am using sourdough starter, add flour, mix with a spoon until it becomes a small dough, knead with hands, using a roller pin to flatten it. Fry in a non stick pan. 


A small spoonful of sourdough starter, mix with flour and pinch of salt.


We ate the 1st piece, Gab said is kind of nice, this is 2nd piece.

And I thought there are only two of us, hence I cut the dough into small rectangular piece.

This is how small it is.

God's Provision

Giving All thanks to God
Truly thankful for God, He leads me to the path to supply me and my family, He always does it at right time and in right mode. 

I don't mind venturing into different industries just as wherever God opens the door, I will enter it with all my heart to excel it. These experiences have helped to enriching in knowledge and in fact gain more and more.

There are plenty ways to earn money, friends came to give advice, I'd like to do things I have passion and mission, especially things will bring benefit to others. 

E.g: Teaching, sewing, baking, Thermomix, Herbalife and now Kangen. I know right, so many things, and keep changing. Some friends they even confronted me for keep selling different things. Well, if I am given a better chance, I would rather go travelling and enjoying my time. I see this as a blessing as I have the best things I have for myself and my family. 

Herbalife is high quality supplements, it has helped many gaining their health, I'd love to hear from my clients about how have their health condition improved after consuming Herbalife.

Kangen Water is a medical device that produces HEALTHY WATER range from pH8.5 to pH9.5; beauty water; Strong Alkaline water and lastly strong acidic water. These water is awesome. The fist one to help is to see my cousin, a diabetes, diabetic ulcer wound is healed in 21 days; blood sugar level reduced to normal even without taking pills. Indeed is happier than ever. 

God is good, Kangen has brought me great fortune. Thankful for God! And also would like to give a big thanks to Debbie my cousin. Her persistence lead me to this business opportunity. I do hope you can give yourself an opportunity to find out more about Kangen business plan, nothing to loose. 

I will keep on doing my best! 
All glory to Him.

惯性消灭圣灵感动症候群

三天两夜在马六甲El Sanctuary 圣殿度假村“烈火营” ,来个属灵冲电,也矫正个人焦点,为世界而忙得不可开交,容易偏离主道,摔跤搞到自己焦头烂额。

每一次向上帝倾诉心情时感觉自己在讲而已,天父有没有听也不晓得。
这几年逐步慢慢地卸下在教会的服事,剩下的就只有主日学老师的职分。

身心灵的疲惫,无人而知,忙啊忙啊,都不开心,累,不是因为服事,累,是因为了世界的事与物,这下子不开心,只因为给上帝用的机会,越来越少。

敬拜赞美后不经意跪下(我这人鲜少跪下,因为害怕膝盖疼😅),我对上帝说;“不是愿意付出一切吗?(自以为义😕)我向来愿意为祢的国度去做,对我一个女人,我能做的,除了愿意以祢给的恩赐用在国度里,我更需要照顾好祢赐下的家,这个家庭虽然只有我和小儿,总不能不顾一切,我最讨厌是没有责任感的人,我不能去接受一个没有责任感的自己,我很累,我很讨厌自己为世界的事而累。。。上帝,你不明白我。。。” 说着,眼泪不停地流下,弄湿了椅子,有害怕人看见,赶紧用纸巾抹掉。。。但掩饰不了自己的激动与鼻涕的“川流不息” (无助)

这位小姐妹靠近我,对我轻声说:“我可以为你祷告吗?”

“可以。” 说着也点了点头。
心里想着:“我不曾告诉任何人我属灵状况,也不曾表示我很累,嗯,这个小姐妹会祷告些什么呢?上帝告诉了她什么东西呢?” 这个念头不是出于骄傲,只是出于上帝会怎样对她说话。

她靠拢我的右边,用左手放在我的左肩,在我耳边开始祷告:“。。。上帝知道你累了!。。。”

这下子我崩溃啦!要不得,这真是上帝启示的并且是对我说的话!确实!

为了要让我从新得力。

感谢上帝的信实,祂知道我的内心世界,知道我的疲惫,祂也知道我患有严重的”惯性消灭圣灵感动”的绝症,(常常会怀疑心里的感动)所以上帝为了确保我明白祂的心意,天父把祂要说的鼓励话语借着一位小姐妹口里向我表明。

上帝的爱不只这么一次对我说,从前也有好几次都是借由姐妹对我而说的。

感谢上帝一路上有祢。

潸然泪下,向大家分享上帝印证了对我的爱。也好互相鼓励。

好好的充个电!

#上帝同行 #从新得力 #一路上有你   #耶稣 #烈火营

Understanding Tabernacle

Understanding Tabernacle VS Today's Life


The last lesson of Kingdom Kidz Omega Class was last Sunday, there will be no classes in Dec alone, there we have rehearsal for KK Christmas Evangelic Pafty, Christmas Rally, Sunday Celebration and KK off Sunday, next lesson to be continued would be in January 2016.
Cover of the lapbook Lesson on Worship

Last subject was Lesson on Worship for Kids, I taught this in year 2012, and teaching again this year, still unable to finish the whole lesson, this time we covered till the lesson on Golden Candlestick, as I was teaching "Entering God's Presence", understanding today's life is very much related to the setting of God's tabernacle. Tabernacle was built according to God's instruction, every piece of the furniture in courtyard and inner court has it's meaning to go with our inner self and the relationship to God.
mini little things about worship

I never knew about it until I start teaching it. I have doubted about why teaching Tabernacle, will it be too heavy to kids of 7 and 8 years old? Will they feel bored about it talking about a 'tent' of ancient time...

I was being questioned why the need of teaching, I became very sure of the importance of teaching Tabernacle, it is very interesting indeed, showing and telling kids how every item of the furniture is related to our daily lives, our mentality, our attitude and our hearts toward God.

Previous meeting in JB FGC with Eunice, she showed me that someone sponsored many packets of air dry dough, with various colours, I requested a left over packet that she had in her hand. It was sat on my dining table since then, until this evening I looked at it, pressed on it, on a whim of thought, took them out to mold them into 6 items of furniture in Tabernacle of Israel. Ready to make a simple model for future teaching visual aids.

The complete model of Tabernacle is not built yet, here are the 6 items I have made by using air dry dough (I should have using yellow colour right?)

Simple meaning of each item 

in Tabernacle

Courtyard

 

Brazen Altar

Burning offering: Jesus is the offering for our sins. We are to give our talents, time, effort to serve in all ways in ministries as our burning offering.

Bronze Laver

To examine our hearts always, to confess and be repented before entering God's presence.

Inner Court

Have Faith and know there is God

 There are three items in inner court

Table of Showbread

First item on the right is table of showbread: Learn and hid God's Word in our hearts.

Golden Lamp stand / Candlestick

Fire: Jesus is The Light of the World
Fruit : Be fruitful and knowing God is watching all the time
Oil: Holy Spirit, all things are possible

Alter of incense

Never cease praying


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Veil

Holy of Holies

Ark of The Covenant

There are three items are placed in Ark of The Covenant
- The 2 stone tablets of the Ten commandments
- Aaron's Sprouted Rod
- Jar of Manna
The promises of God's salvation, authority and faithfulness


Most of all, a worshipful life is a life without fail of sharing God's salvation.
Teaching kids to share with friends of God's Salvation by using colour felt.

Wholesome Prayer

I used to make proclamation and rebuke prayers, there is a wholesome prayer I have gotten it from Cindy, my cousin sister. I am living it and will proclaim this every day and night. Let's do it together so that no evil plan shall prospers.

Father, in the Name of Jesus, bless me even while I'm reading this prayer and bless the one that sent this to me in a special way. Open doors in our lives today, Save and set us free!
Give us a double portion of your Spirit as we take back everything that the devil has stolen:
****Emotional Health
****Physical Health
****Finances
****Relationships
**** Jobs
****Homes
****Marriages
I cancel every plot, plan and scheme the enemy has devised against us in the NAME OF JESUS.
And I declare:
NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST US WILL PROSPER.
I speak LIFE into every dead situation. And, I thank You that nothing is over until YOU say it's over! Speak prophetically into our lives and to our situations:
****our households are blessed;
**** our health is blessed;
**** our finances are blessed;
**** our relationships are blessed;
**** our businesses are blessed;
**** our jobs are secured
**** our parents are blessed;
**** our siblings are blessed;
**** our ministries are blessed;
**** our decisions are blessed;
**** our friends are blessed.
**** Mortgages are paid and debts cancelled; our hearts' desires are on the way;
According to YOUR perfect will and plan for our lives.
YOU SAID YOU'D NEVER FORSAKE US! IN JESUS' NAME!
AMEN!

Two great commandments

As Kevin and I were teaching in Messiah II last Sunday about first Fruit of Holy Spirit - Love, we talked about loving a thing is different for loving a person. A very funny illustration was, when someone you loved have hurt you or have failed you, I said to the children: "The normal reaction will have as a little children is to say: 'I hate you!!!' or 'I don't want to be friend with you!!'" and I continue to tell them, I love pizza, while I am eating my favourite pizza, I dropped it on the floor accidentally, I will not point to the pizza and shout: "I hate you!!!" Then followed by laughter from all little children, even me, I didn't know it was so hilarious to make them laughed like that.

Love always come with a few rules to obey, we don't say they are conditioned, but a way to protect someone whom you love, e.g. traffic rules, school rules, house rules.... and so on. God has given us rules in Mt. Sinai. The Ten Commandments are divided into two parts we called two great commandments
The First Part: Love God

  1. Put God first
  2. Worship only God
  3. Use God's name in respect
  4. Honour the Sabbath's day
The Second Part: Love man
5.   Honour you parents (so that you may live long in the land that Lord your God is giving you)
6.   Do not kill
7.   Be faithful in marriage
8.   Do not steal
9.   Do not lie
10. Do not greed

So what?


Yes, I know, I've walked through this path, I chose to walk away, I chose to hide from God, I chose not to talk to Him, I chose not to listen to Him....

You might have these thoughts:
"I took granted from God's love, I am not worthy to be loved since I have chosen to do these to shame Him,  "

"I have tasted His greatness, and yet walked astray, I ought to have punishment. "

and so on.... and on .... and on.... that just keep you STILL away from Him.

How?

Be it 'take for granted', be it 'I'm not worth it', be it 'I am fooling God', be it 'I am shameful to face Him again!'. Do you think God doesn't know about it?  Do you think God will look at you in another 'coloured specs'? Do you think God will send punishment onto you?

Don't be fooled, God doesn't send punishment, those punishments are the consequences from the wrong choice we've made. But if you turn to God right away, don't be silly, punishment will not disappear, but God will strengthen you, will walk with you through this, and will grant you wisdom to solve them. Lift up your eyes, and you will see He is just there all the time!

"Come now, let us settle the matter," says the LORD. "though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool." Isiah 1:18

If I will have to choose to listen, I rather choose to listen to His Word than anything from my mind or others who stumble me, who puts me ashamed, who gives no hope for my future, who make me believe that I am worthless, weak and make myself believe that I am taking God for granted. Confess, "Yes I was, so what? But now I am not!" Come back to Him, follow Him, He will guide you and comfort you.

I like this psalm, hope it reminds you to focus on God's greatness, mercy and steadfast love.

"I lift up my eyes to the hills, where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip, he who watches over you will not slumber, indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD watches over you- the LORD is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will keep you from all harm - he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore."

Mercy in the wilderness

I read a post 'Watchful Angels' from Echo Chen (San Mao) in 'Scarecrow Notes'  just yesterday night: 


A few days before Christmas, neighbour's child gave me a paper-made angel and said: "This is not real, there isn't any angel, just made it from a paper."  Tommy rested his arm on the short wooden board, stood at the garden chatted with me.
"Indeed, there are angels, I have two." I winked at the kid and said it seriously.
"Where are they?" Tommy looked up at me and asked curiously.
"You can't see them now, if you knew me a few years back, you might be able to see them!"  ..... 
"God gives everyone of us two angels, and keep them in our hearts when we are still in mother's womb, angles start tearing when they hear our hearts beating."
"Angels crying? They are sad?"
"They always tearing, because they love the kid so much, that is why they tearing the whole life. They do not wipe away those tears, because their wings are too busy to protect the kid, not even laying them down for a second, worry that the kid will fall ill cause by the wind and rain."
......
"One day, the kid has grown up, the kid told the angels: I am going, please don't follow me, this is sickening."
"What did the angles said?" Tommy asked.
"Those angels? They looked at each other, silent, they gave everything that they have, the best of bests to the kid, the kid packed them all and left them without turning back. "
"Those angels crying right?"
"Those angels flew up to a higher place in order to take a look at the kid, the kid ran fast, and went far, angels grew older, yet still struggle to fly to a higher point, hopefully to get another glance at the kid. The kid has soon became a tiny spec, gradually, lost in sight, this very moment, these two angels flew home, shut the door, turn off the light, and crying in the dark silently."
......

"Where did the kid go?" Tommy asked.
"It isn't important anymore,...."
"Didn't he miss the watchful angels?"
"Arrh! In the storm, he'll miss the goodness of this pair of wings, and tearing for a short while!"
"Did you mean the kid only miss the goodness of this pair of wings instead of the two watchful angels?"
.....




We are those ungrateful ones, we have tasted the goodness of the Lord, we have seen the beauty of holiness, yet we chose to leave God, or indeed asked God to leave us like what the story has told. 


How many of us, in times of tribulation we miss His goodness instead of Him? 




When we truly learn? When will we really understand His love, or we have been taken it for granted? 










I need thee........in and out, in the day, and at night, in all areas, You are the Lord, You reign! 


We worship you, Lord. In the beauty of holiness, clothed in Your righteousness, cleansed by Your blood!  


Lyrics from The Beauty Of Holiness - Steve Camp






My proclamation...
In Christ alone, my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song This cornerstone, this solid ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm What heights of love, what depths of peaceWhen fears are stilled, when strivings cease My comforter, my all-in-all Here in the love of Christ I stand

Stephen Tong 唐崇榮 - Give me an answer 給我答案

不管是基督徒还是非基督徒,心中都有很多疑问, 比如当灾难降临人的时候,上帝和耶稣在那里,为什么我要受苦难呢?
Whether Christian or non-Christians, there are many questions in mind, such as the time when disaster strikes people , where is God/Jesus, why do I have to be suffering?

here is the link to lead you to a post where author compiles all of Stephen Tong's video clips from Youtube site.

唐崇榮牧師(1940年-,Stephen Tong),著名基督教華人佈道家神學家 [1],世界華人福音事工聯絡中心副主席。唐家四昆之一,另外三兄弟為唐崇平牧師,唐崇明牧師和唐崇懷牧師。祖籍中國福建,是印尼國民,住在雅加達 [2] 。在他五十年的工作中在全世界至少向二千萬人演講。他在十七歲時便開始傳道人的事奉[2]。他佈道的特色是透過歸正神學聖經原則帶領人歸向基督

唐崇榮牧師在布道的时候给我一种气势凌人的感觉,但他所说的很有道理,包括:圣经是神的话语,我们要以圣经的原则来信主耶稣基督。

不是个人的想法,不是教会的教友,也不是教会的牧师,更不是圣灵对我们说的话!

那是不是我不用圣灵, 不用牧师,不用教友,也不要有自己的想法呢?
事实上,正好相反,我们要动脑,想牧师对我们说,比如牧师:“我们要谦卑”。那为什么牧师要这样说呢?是不是我们谦卑就可以发达?这个时候,我们就要读圣经,耶稣有叫我们谦卑吗?
有,在天上最伟大的就是像小孩那样谦卑(马太福音18章第4节)。
为什么人要谦卑呢?因为人会犯错,人对上帝来说是很渺小的。

那圣灵呢?我们也是不是不要听圣灵的话?人会犯错那圣灵也都会犯错吗?
圣灵不会犯错,但人会犯错,我有耳朵但我还是会听错,以自己的定义来对听到的话下定论。
圣灵是来帮助我们的,是我们在受苦难是的慰问者,帮助我们在苦难中坚定我们的信心。
如果圣灵没对你说话,但你可能以为他对你说了:“把你的仇敌打倒吧,把他杀死”。
那你要怎样做呢?圣经中耶稣是说去打倒你的敌人,还是仇敌打你的左脸,那你也要给他打你的右脸。
耶稣说爱你的仇敌,为迫害你的人祷告。(马太福音第6章第43节)

Holy Calling

For those who had missed the first session of SCF Praise and Worship Training by Pastor Jacinta, here is a short note about it, can't share it as detail as Pastor Jacinta, but something very important to know as part of the 'Holy Calling'.

Worship - reverence. You can't worship in any other way. There is reverence in worship because we see Him as He is. Worship is us giving of ourselves.

Before everything starts, Pastor Jacinta asks us to read Numbers 3, so please read this before the next session comes.

Who are in this "Holy Calling" field?
  1. Song Leader
  2. Psalmists
  3. Musicians
  4. Tambourine Dancers

"Call to Worship"
Praise and worship team is a Holy Calling, a group of people who are set apart, Levites in old testament, were the chosen tribe, Deuteronomy 10:8 says, "At that time the Lord set apart the tribe of Levi to carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to serve Him and to bless His name until this day."

We, as part of praise and worship team, are the Holy Calling ones, to be set apart and chosen as His priests, we are given with God's power to bring down enemies strength, to stand in the gap for God's people, to prepare the way, to prepare the hearts of the congregation, to prepare the congregation to receive the Word of God, to break down walls (Walls of Jericho), focus heart, focus mind, Draw the congregation into the Presence of God, to call for worship, "The Power of Praise and Worship".

The heart of every one has to be cleansed by God's grace, to set yourself apart from sins, discourages, doubts, condemnation......etc. We might be in a need of healing, deliverance, we have problems, struggles etc., when we start to worship Him, it will bring to a change of our focus back to Him, in His presence is all we need. Worship is an action, remember it is not just singing songs, worship is a sacrifice and it is a laying down of our lives, our wills, feelings and we say by bowing before Him. Heart attitude, the outward action should be a reflection of what is going on on the inside that He is our King, we are not our own. A relationship needs to be built daily.

It is definitely very awesome, to see lives transform through praise and worship, therefore confess your sins, praise Him for He is our King, He is great, worship Him with our hearts, let us sing together in unity, with one voice!

Let the sick say: 'I am healed.'
Let the weak say: 'I am strong.'
Let the blink say: 'I can see.'
Let the bound say: 'I am free.'
Let the poor say: 'I am rich.'
Let the lost say: 'I am found.'







Worship is a lifestyle, an offering to God.


Happy serving.

Eliminating Doubt

Eliminating Doubt
Rhonda Dent

Sometimes it seem like it takes a very long time for the things that we are trusting God for to happen. We began to get anxious and even doubtful. When we deal with other people it is understandable that we might have doubt because we are dealing with human beings who are just doing the best that they possibly can. With God and His promises there is no reason to doubt.

God has done and will do everything He said He would do and more. When things do not happen as soon as we would like them to or when we have waited as long as we think we should or when that break through takes time we can find ourselves in doubt. We get anxious and wonder where God is or if He heard our prayers. All sorts of things enter into our mind and the wait seems endless. We try to be patient, but it seems as if it is taking forever.

We often ask, "When God...When?" Often in my life as I prayed about certain things I have felt so anxious, even impatient at times. Sometimes to the point of saying, "Will this thing ever happen?" Other times asking, "Did I hear God clearly?" "Did I get my signals crossed?"

Then I began to doubt and question what I thought I knew. At other times I tried to work it out myself and just got in God's way. It is hard to be patient and wait, especially in today's world filled with instant gratification. However, we must be like Abraham who had the faith to believe that God would do what He promised. The Bible tells us that Abraham staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform (Romans 4: 20-21, KJV.)

I remember as a young girl listening to older believers talk about the importance of 'knowing' something. I never could understand why people in church insisted that you 'know that you know that you know' something (followed by a head shake). At the time I had no idea what in the world they were talking about. I just knew that they believed what they were saying. But now I know and can relate to what they were saying.

I know that I know that I know (head shake) that God is in control.
I know that I know that I know (head shake) He will do just what He said.
I know that I know that I know (head shake) He may not come when you want, but He is right on time.
I know that I know that I know (head shake) He is all knowing.

That head shake was eliminating any doubt! That head shake meant that they were fully persuaded that God would do just what He said. Instead of doubting and/or being anxious and getting in God's way let's wait patiently and realize that everything is in God's timing.

God's timing is perfect because everything about God is perfect. We need to get to the point where we do not want anything outside of His timing. If you are waiting on God for anything, wait patiently and He will bring you to that expected end.

Eliminate any doubt in your mind and be fully persuaded that God is not slack on His promises.

Rejoice, God is singing to me!

Tonight, Daniel sent me a bible verse:

  • For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you with great gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will exult over you by singing a happy song."
So, I asked is this what God wants him to send to me, he said: 'don't know!'

Then he gave me another one, here it is:

Zephaniah 3:14-17

Sing, O Daughter of Zion; shout aloud, O Israel!
Be glad and rejoice with all your heart,
O Daughter of Jerusalem!
The LORD has taken away your punishment,
he has turned back your enemy.
The LORD, the King of Israel, is with you;
never again will you fear any harm.
On that day they will say to Jerusalem,
"Do not fear, O Zion;
do not let your hands hang limp.
The LORD your God is with you,
he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you,
he will quiet you with his love,
he will rejoice over you with singing."


So, again, I asked is that God wants him to send it to me, he said: 'I seldom do this, sending bible verse to friend online.'

Therefore I told him, must be from God then, and I am encouraged, so much... so much........so much......after the 'joke'.


He did share the same Bible verse with another sister, it's gonna worked the same way as I did!

Received with joy and by faith.

Does God need a 'Work Frame'?

Everybody reads, attends countless of seminars and workshops, listening to their experiences, absorbing their insights, enlarging your knowledge, and understanding. The world is so big, people are numbers, what you read, affect what you think, who do you connect with, affect your behavior, your mind changes to what you've listened, what kind of frame do you put in your life-picture?

Mankind like to put frame in their life, I could understand it, because mankind are limited, how can oneself know of everything?

But I am curious about why do people put up frame for God? I don't understand. I might not express well here, just trying my best to write out my insight, talking about sharing insight, sigh, don't deny, this always bring me troubles when I try to share my insight, one of my friend doesn't like this idea, and tries not to share too much of personal insight, I understand it, and pretty much agree with the statement. But... it is my blog any way, not many will read (I guess!) you will never please everyone.

God, someone I get to know just 8 years ago, I don't know Him much, m....what I know is limited, He is deep, really deep though He is just right inside my heart, He is awesome, so awesome that I amazed on His works, He works miracles, I may not know all, but one is good enough to tremble, He works new thing, who can tell what is going to happen? who can tell how He is going to do?

I have heard many of preachers, pastors, deacons talked about God (not all, but many to my experience) they shared about God does this, and that, God is so great, I'd loved to know Him more; Somehow one or a few statement they made are something I know is happening around me, but they said: 'GOD DOES NOT WORK IN THIS WAY' 'NO SUCH THING OF THIS.... AND THIS.....' hmmmm...... I wonder why they are so sure about it? But ... for what I know, God does thing like that, God already had worked this thing in somebody's life, it is their real life experience, who can deny? how can they be so irresponsible to put out statement like this for God? Who are they? Who can fathom God's wisdom?

Then, worst thing come later, once the statement came out from their mouth, people who attend this seminar or workshop, will have an invisible frame for God's work.

We really have to be careful of what we read, and listen. Be a wise audience, a wise disciple, and wise children of God, God is unlimited, God works thing in His own way, not base on what our experiences, you may not experience all the 'weird' thing, (sorry, sometime He works thing out of our imagination, what is the better way to describe? ) but it doesn't mean 'He does not work in this way', please don't put a frame to God's almighty, how foolish you are if you believe God 'won't work thing in this way or that way', our responsibility is to TRUST, and put everything into prayer, and WAIT patiently.

Something is really hard for me to imagine, I need to learn to wait for this thing to become 'a past', some may say 'God won't work in this way', because they did not have this experience. I considered myself little faith, therefore I searched around and found that 'YES, God works in this way', and it is still happening... it depends on what kind of frame I put into my life, but I definitely won't put a frame to JESUS, the LORD my Almighty God.

5 Reasons Why God Uses Problems

5 Reasons Why God Uses Problems

The problems you face will either defeat you or develop you,

depending on how you respond to them.

Unfortunately, most people fail to see

how God wants to use problems for good in their lives.

They react foolishly and resent their problems,

rather than pausing to consider what benefit they might bring.

Here are five ways God wants to use the problems in your life:

1. God uses problems to DIRECT you


Sometimes God must light a fire under you to get you moving.

Problems often point us in a new direction and motivate us to change..

Is God trying to get your attention?

"Sometimes it takes a painful situation to make us change our ways."

Proverbs 20:30

2. God uses problems to INSPECT you


People are like tea bags

if you want to know what's inside them,

just drop them into hot ever water!

Has God tested your faith with a problem?

What do problems reveal about you?

"When you have many kinds of troubles,

you should be full of joy,

because you know that these troubles test your faith,

and this will give you patience."

James 1:2-3

3. God uses problems to CORRECT you


Some lessons we learn only through pain and failure.

It's likely that as a child,

your parents told you not to touch a hot stove.

But you probably learned by being burned.

Sometimes we only learn the value of something... health,

money, a relationship ... by losing it.

"It was the best thing that could have happened to me,

for it taught me to pay attention to your laws."

Psalm 119:71-72

4. God uses problems to PROTECT you


A problem can be a blessing in disguise

if it prevents you from being harmed by something more serious.

Last year a friend was fired

for refusing to do something unethical that his boss

had asked him to do.

His unemployment was a problem,

but it saved him from being convicted and sent to prison a year later

when management's actions were eventually discovered.

"You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good..."

Genesis 50:20

5. God uses problems to PERFECT you


Problems, when responded to correctly, are character builders.

God is far more interested in your character than your comfort.

Your relationship with God and your character

are the only two things you're going to take with you into eternity.

"We can rejoice when we run into problems...

they help us learn to be patient.

And patience develops strength of character in us,

and helps us trust God more each time we use it,

until finally our hope and faith are strong and steady."

Romans 5:3-4

Here's the point:

God is at work in your life


even when you do not recognize it or understand it.

But it's much easier and profitable when you cooperate with Him.

"Success can be measured

not only in achievements,

but in lessons learned,

lives touched

and moments shared along the way"

LIFE IS AN ECHO

LIFE IS AN ECHO.

What you send out, you get back.

What you give, you receive.

WHEN YOU BRING OUT THE BEST IN OTHERS,

YOU BRING OUT THE BEST IN YOURSELF.
