the glasses on your nose; the spirit in your heart

recently Pastor Jo mentioned about the spirit during Ministry Night ... He said that the spirit of a man determines how he looks at the world, the various happenings, the joyous occasions, the sorrowful events... it is like a pair of glasses, a red-tinted one will make everything look red, a blue-tinted one will make everything look blue... when God allows sufferings, it is not that He is powerless nor nonchalant, He is using sufferings to soften our hearts... a seed cannot grow in hard ground, the ground needs to be tilted to facilitate growth...

"do not look at what God had seemingly let you DOWN but focus how God had lifted you UP"

God can make things right... if only you let Him... if only i let Him... amen

God is Grrrrrrrrrrrreat!

God is Great! Can someone please say amen? because the chairs and the tables cant say amen!!!God has been good to me... although there has been some bad times like challenges being thrown at me... stress increment... felt the lack of support.... bad stuffs... yet in the midst of all these, God has never let me down... at times i cant see Him, at times i cant feel him... not because He left me... but rather, i had "left" Him... After being an working adult for more than 4 months, i can finally identify how can one forget about God during weekdays and remember Him during weekends... as our friendly pastor jeff likes to put it, "去church一条龙，去work一条虫"

recently, something positive happened and it made me see the light of HOPE once again. i guess that's the how God encourage me when i felt the temptation of giving up. i mentioned in my previous entry about wanting to be a "salty sheep in the midst of wolves" and about daring to be different.... to be the minority.... God blessed me with an early confirmation and it rekindle my conviction. most impt of all, i got to receive the letter of confirmation from my CEO, Mr Markus Gericke. how cool can that be? haha... Praise the Lord...
