Bila ku buka mataku dan lihat wajah-Mu
ku terkagum
Bila kulihat hidupku dan karya tangan-Mu
ku tersanjung
Kar'na semua yang baik dalam hidupku, itulah karya-Mu
Kau b'ri kesempatan yang baru
Dan ku ingin mengenal-Mu Tuhan
Lebih dalam dari semua yang ku kenal
Tiada kasih yang melebihi-Mu
Ku ada untuk menjadi penyembah-Mu

Answers vs Doubts
All of us have doubts...... Have you ever asked before what is the answers towards your doubts?
Both my eyes were wet when I heard the sharing in Lighthouse last week about a Buddhist nun having doubts although she can handle all the crisis of her life very well.
She finds herself having a lot of doubts and I believe she feels hollow and emptiness inside.
Rituals are just rituals. You can't earn to go to heaven by doing good deeds and you will dry up sooner. You don't kill an ant but your selfishness, unforgiveness and hatred inside you will not help you to decrease any of your sin.
All of us are sinner as we are not flawless person. That is why you can't replace any of your sin by doing good deeds.
At that instance, I miss a friend so much but I wonder how is she doing now and tears can't stop running down from my eyes.
I miss you, my friend =( I wish you can experience abundant life like all of us and I urge if everyone who read this, it is an urgency of gospel.
The missing link is a relationship with the true God and it is the only answer which can satisfy all the emptiness that one felt. If you are a christian, can I ask your favor to pray together for this friend of mine and ppl in the same shoes? Indeed, I hope to meet her again!!

A true friend outweighs a rich spouse =)
Your friendship with ppl lasts a long-life for you....
I still remember very well the sentence above which was uttered by my first semester uni roomate to me. This comment never erase from my brain as it was how I impacted her.
Lord Father , I just want to thank you for placing all these wonderful ppl in my life. In spite of the short time being together, but I always remember and uphold them in prayer. Bless them in their daily lives and give them the courage to undergo in whatever circumstances.
What can our possession rewards us when we got no one to share with??
What can money buys when it can't buy true friendship??
What a successful person has if there is no one to share his/her happiness??
What is the point of having the prettiest/ most charming spouse when it is only two of you in your own world??
I am so touched as distance is not able to jeopardize my friendship with you all . Thanks for the many surprises to me!!
The heart always remember for being one of the sparkling stars in my world.

Forgiving and Forgetting
1. Forgiving is allowing another person to be human for faults, mistakes or misdeeds. Forgetting is putting these behind you; they are no longer brought up and no longer remain a barrier to your relationship.
2. Forgiving is letting another know that there is no grudge, hard feelings or animosity for any wrongdoing. Forgetting is the lack of further discussion, with no ongoing negative references to the event.
3. Forgiving is letting the other person know that you accept as genuine the remorse and sorrow for actions or words that hurt or disappointed you. Forgetting is promising that this deed, whether of omission or commission, will not be brought up again.
4. Forgiving is accepting the sincerity of penance, sorrow and regret expressed over a grievous personal offense; making it sufficient to clear the air. Forgetting is your commitment to let go of anger, hurt and pain over this offense.
5. Forgiving is giving a sign that a person's explanation or acceptance of blame for a destructive, hurtful or painful act is fully accepted. Forgetting is the development of a plan of action between the two of you to heal the scars resulting from the behavior.
6. Forgiving is the highest form of human behavior that can be shown to another person. It means being vulnerable to being hurt or offended in the future, yet setting aside this in order to reopen and heal the channels of communication. Forgetting is is also a noble human behavior; it is letting go of the need to seek revenge for past offenses.
7. Forgiving is the act of love between you and a person who has hurt you; the bandage that holds the wound together long enough to heal. Forgetting is also an act of love; in rehabilitation therapy, helping the wounded return to a full and functional life.
8. Forgiving is the God-like gift of spiritually connecting with others, touching their hearts to calm the fear of rejection, quiet the sense of failure and lighten the burden of guilt. Forgetting is the God-like gift of spiritually touching others' hearts with the reassurance of a happy and full life with no fear of recrimination.
9. Forgiving is the act of letting go of temporary ill will, disappointment or the disgust that arises from the break in your relationship. Forgetting is bridging this gap in the relationship, eventually strengthening it against such a break in the future.
10. Forgiving is an act of compassion, humanity and gentleness by which you let another know that he is indeed a child of the universe upon whom a variety of graces and blessings have been showered and that current or past offenses need not be a barrier to goodness. Forgetting is the act of encouragement, support and reinforcement by which you assist the other person to rebuild, reconnect and re-establish a loving, caring, healthy relationship with you and the world.

Shine like stars
Look at the world we live today
Look at the hurting everywhere
Let us bring mercy and your grace
Overflow in every place
Let us be one with You today
And let Your glory fall
We will shine
Shine like stars above
Shining in Your light
Guided by your love
Let your fire burn in us
Burning like the sun
As we glorify
Show your kingdom come
In all the earth
Teach us to live in righteousness
Teach us to love in one accord
Guide us to live life everyday
As we worship in Your courts
Let us declare Your majesty
And let Your glory fall
Look at the hurting everywhere
Let us bring mercy and your grace
Overflow in every place

And let Your glory fall
We will shine

P = Pray
U = Until
S = Something
H = Happens
U = Until

H = Happens
"A man was sleeping one night in his cabin when suddenly his room filled with light, and God appeared. The Lord told the man he had work for him to do, and showed him a large rock in front of his cabin. The Lord explained that the man was to push against the rock with all his might.
So, this the man did, day after day. For many years he toiled from sunup to sundown, his shoulders set squarely against the cold, massive surface of the unmoving rock, pushing with all his might!
Each night the man returned to his cabin sore and worn out, feeling that his whole day had been spent in vain. Since the man was showing discouragement, the Adversary (Satan) decided to enter the picture by placing thoughts into the weary mind: (He will do it every time)!
You have been pushing against that rock for a long time and it hasn't moved." Thus, he gave the man the impression that the task was impossible and that he was a failure. These thoughts discouraged and disheartened the man.
Satan said, "Why kill yourself over this? Just put in your time, giving just the minimum effort; and that will be good enough."
That's what the weary man planned to do, but decided to make it a matter of prayer and to take his troubled thoughts to the Lord.
"Lord," he said, "I have labored long and hard in Your Service, putting all my strength to do that which you have asked. Yet, after all this time, I have not even budged that rock by half a millimeter. What is wrong? Why am I failing?"
The Lord responded compassionately, "My friend, when I asked you to serve Me and you accepted, I told you that your task was to push against the rock with all of your strength, which you have done.
Never once did I mention to you that I expected you to move it. Your task was to push. And now you come to Me with your strength spent, thinking that you have failed.
But, is that really so? Look at yourself. Your arms are strong and muscled, your back shiny and brown; your hands are callused from constant pressure, your legs have become massive and hard.
Through opposition you have grown much, and your abilities now surpass that which you used to have. True, you haven't moved the rock. But your calling was to be obedient and to push and to exercise your faith and trust in My wisdom. That you have done. Now I, my friend, will move the rock."
At times, when we hear a word from God, we tend to use our own intellect to decipher what He wants, when actuallywhat God wants is just simple obedience and faith in Him.
By all means, exercise the faith that moves mountains, but know that it is still God Who moves the mountains.

有人在為你禱告
似乎你已禱告直到力量殆盡
流眼淚 如下雨滴 終日不停
主關心 而且瞭解 你能忍受多少
祂將告訴別人 為你禱告
--
有人在為你禱告 有人在為你禱告
當你覺得 寂寞孤單 你內心將要破碎
要記得 有人在為你禱告
--
是否你正處在狂風暴雨之中
你的船 支離破碎 疲倦失意
別失望 此時此刻 有人為你禱告
寧靜平安 將要進入你心

Juru S'lamatku
Walau kuharus berjalan
Dalam lembah kekelaman
Perlindungan-Mu Oh Tuhan
Nyatalah bagi hidupku
Tiada pernah sedetik pun
Tiada pernah Kau tinggalkan
Sungguh mulia dan sempurna
Hanya Kau layak disembah
Yesus Engkau Juru s’lamatku
Dalam janji-Mu kemenanganku
Selamanya ‘kan kunyatakan
Besar setia-Mu Tuhan
Di hidupku
Dalam lembah kekelaman
Perlindungan-Mu Oh Tuhan
Nyatalah bagi hidupku
Tiada pernah sedetik pun
Tiada pernah Kau tinggalkan
Sungguh mulia dan sempurna
Hanya Kau layak disembah
Yesus Engkau Juru s’lamatku
Dalam janji-Mu kemenanganku
Selamanya ‘kan kunyatakan
Besar setia-Mu Tuhan
Di hidupku

The great fulfilment of life
A lost soul- A 37-year-old Sammi Cheng describes the woman she once was. "I joined the entertainment world in my teens. I made lots of money and owned lots of things in the course of just few years," she recalls. "Then I could no longer find my way around in the vanity fair."
"I was used to a certain value system; I thought the value of my existence depended on success and achievement. When I came to possess all those things, I felt hollow inside," she says.
A new perspective
On Dec 9, 2007, Sammi was baptised as a Christian and started finding joy in giving back to society. She has visited the the less fortunate in Africa, Laos, Mongolia and Sichuan and sponsored more than 10 poor children.
"I love praying with people around me, and love praying for others... Nothing conveys our love better than praying on someone's behalf."
"I've learned to accept what life holds for me with composure. People ask me about marriage. I would say: it could be today, or when I am 40, whenever, as God would have it. I have no worries as I entrust myself into His care," she says. "Now, I wake up everyday find I like myself, despite all my shortcomings."
