Choices

5 MAY 2006

Bed....pillow....blanket....Presentation..Christian Fellowship....

Irene called me....Eve sorry not ready....out of Joy I said its ok...I rather go for CF...so self study I meet you on Monday for Mocks.

I'm late, oh my God....9am....1 hour left to brush my teeth, to take bath to dressed up to pack my stuff and run to the LRT station for CF.

You can tell how disorganise I am...yes another bad Saturday morning.

So before I step out I decided to give my mum a call to tell her that I'm going to school and update her bout my week. My dad was busy preparing stuff for his business.

Good good I tell to my self I have encouraged my mum this morning. Rushing, better hurry up I'm very late...

On my way in the LRT, Novel called me to look for a place in Wangsa maju as she was very distracted and depressed at her current place. I gave her number to Ming Hui my college mate as I heard she was looking for a room mate and smssing the two of the them. So I became the middle person of their negotiations. It all happens on my journey to school and Novel decided to move in.

Good good I tell my self I had help another person to get a place to stay.

I reached Pasar seni at 10:50am...so I have another 10 minutes to rush...no I gotta get my coffee..so I decided to stop at Kiosk to get my Favourite Mocha..for a kick start... Still look bit sleepy and unenergize.

Bad things always happen and it always happened to me ;) I have no small change...So I say sorry ah...RM10...the cashier guy look at me and say sorry no change you have smaller note? I was definately irritated by the fact that I'm already late and he is making my life difficult. How I feel? I felt like telling him with my Malanglish " How come Open Business no money change ?"

Thank God I tell my self it was not his fault. Afterall I've been in that position that people tell straight to my face how they are not satisfied bout things. So I decided to appologize for giving him such a big note...but I really need that cofee kind of thing...so he ask Rm1 note for change is it ok? with a smile I said appreciate that if you don't mind.

The cashier finally have no choice to do my business and gave me the change and he appologize by saying " Sorry ye, jangan marah ye " I smile at him and say no problem I understand. It all happened in 5 minutes...

What I've learned? God grace. Yup his Grace, despite my human weakness he gave me a chance, at least a chance to repent, at least a chance to make a different in other persons' life. I left that shop feeling real good by not making his life difficult at least.

So then, I was left with 3 minutes or so to be there in CF. Thank God I make it on time. Today lesson was peserverance, as a Student, as a disciple and a child to our parents ( The unsung Heroes ). Yes I definately needed that.
Passage 2 Timothy 1:7:
7For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.

Passage Hebrews 13:6:
6So we say with confidence,"The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?"[a]

Ephesians 3 :20
20Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,

From Fear To Love

For Those who are in Love, the expression of Love does not seems too difficult to express. But for those who are about to be in Love, there are some area which we fear to express. For those who does not know what is Love, they do not even want to talk about it. And for those who fear to Love can't understand what the Lord's Love is all about. Little that you know the bible is also known as the book of Love.

Ray and Nancy Kane in their book states that

Each of us senses within that we were created to be in relationship with others and not to be left alone. When we love, we are willing to reach out to the lonely and brokenhearted

Thus, we are willing to provide that special touch, word of affirmation, or act of kindness. The Question is why do we fear? The only answer I had is probably we fear of rejection or we experience the pain of rejection so we never want to be involve again. We all need assurance and acceptance from one another. Sometimes it was given deliberately and sometimes it was implied.

When I think of the Theme for the month " Fishers of Men" I questioned my heart do I even love to seek and save the lost. My fear of rejection often stop me from going all the way. I was reading about the criminal who was sentence to death penalty together with Jesus.

One ask Jesus to save himself and the criminal and the other ask for pardon and for Jesus to remember him. Fear can produce 2 kind of result it either make you feel angry and upset when someone does'nt do anything you wish, or you will be so humble to know that you don't deserve the love from others but you can only beg for it.

Hm...cool huh thus, a little insights to ponder about our love for God, his Kingdom the lost and our family. Lets ponder.

Ipoh Mission Trip

The trip to Ipoh was so refreshing and it has always been a great encouragement for me and the Ipoh mission Committees. I went there unprepared, not even bringing enough cloths to wear. A T-shirt, a pair of Jeans and my slippers, how pethetic it sounds :(. Hooi Joo and Alan was well groom, sharp and was ready to do God's work. I told my self to repent Amen! and to be ready the next trip to reach out and glorify the Lord in every way.

We started evangelism once we arrived in Jaya Jusco. By God Grace many were open and on hand we have 3 persons who would love to find out more about the Bible. One turn up on our Friday Bible Talk and another one on Sunday. We've friends and families who come as well. We are definately very grateful to God for providing us the strength, wisdom and zeal while reaching out to the people in Ipoh.Shirley a medical Tech student who study in Shah Alam that we meet in Ipoh would want to study the bible as well ( Amen! ) We'll be arranging a study next week when she come back from Holiday.

Having focus on mission, the Christian would never missed the chance to full our stomach, the all time favourites in Ipoh Old Town, chicken rice, popiah, white coffee, Hor fun etc..Shanu aka Ashley and Tommy was with us as well ( they are studying the bible) It was real fun to be there to focus on mission and have lots of fun time. Do pray for them and hope that God will help them to be strong and make decision to follow God.

Do come and joint us on our journey of seeking and saving the lost. We are planning to have a trip to Gua Tempurung, white water rafting and Ipoh Dates I heard. Planned are to be confirmed, one thing for sure we want to get more fish to come to know God and definately make God known to them. Campus will be joining us, we'll left the married in KL he he...

So Tag along and get inspired.
