Just a short post here.
I'm so glad i could join for church's Mentawai (Indonesia) Trip, 1 March-8 March. Not much to say, but I know, without God's grace i wouldn't even get to join in.
By listening to another sermon recently, perhaps it is going to be a prefect timing to learn of ''redeeming the time''. Wasn't just taking most of the time nor fit into every opportunity ahead, but full using the life time we have! Redeeming the time, using our own time as cost to buy up time for our Lord, God.
This truly is a big lesson i had to plan upon for my discipline life and learn about it.
Anyways, will be updating again once i'm back to Malaysia :))
Guidance which given by this world is hunger for immediate, short-term results. It cannot see life in the long-term because it looks at life without the perspective of eternal realities. So, if we follow the world, in which we live, but since in the process of gaining it we shall lose our souls, where is the profit?
By wisdom of this world that men crucified Christ. Same wisdom applies to our lives will crucify afresh the Lord of glory.(Hebrews 6:6)
When Jesus prayed for his disciples, and those who would believe in him through their witness, he said:
Father, I want those you have given to be with me where I
am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me
because you loved me before the creation of the world.
John 17:24
Simply expressed, our Lord recognized that God has a plan for his people ('those you have given me') . Jesus asked that the purpose of his death for us may be fulfilled in us - that we may see the glory and live in his presence.
To live for the glory of God means to imitate Jesus. It means to become familiar with his inner springs which activated all his behaviour, and put these principles into practice in our own lives.
If we do not seek his glory, we cannot be walking in the way of his blessing.
If we seek his glory, then we can be sure that we shall discover his light shed on our paths.

All my talents and skills are given for a same purpose. I wonder did i took some advantage to balance up what i couldn't do at first, but sometime things just happened not to be a coincidence before God.
Since God is in me and i will be in Him, everything should be fine.
Lots more effort and hardworking needed, to help me understand more of the words of insight in bible, and more strength to resist every temptation towards me. To first resist temptation, i shall not give in attention. Could i really be as clever as serpent but harmless as dove?
I'm so worthless. I know and yet it doesn't mean i will give up my life. It means i live stronger and harder everyday for the one who had save me - Jesus Christ.
