tongue

God gave me a challenge:
Whenever I feel like speaking against someone,
feel irritated by someone, feel like wanna cekik him/her,

start praying for that person.



With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. James 3:9-10


Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins. 1 Peter 4:8


Challenge diterima.
Help me Holy spirit.

true meaning of Grace

Last weekend, Pr.Mark Drake came over to our church to share about the topic on 'Grace'.
"What's the difference between mercy and grace?," he asked.
To me, there's not much difference, about the same lah.

But Pr.Mark Drake taught us about the true biblical meaning of GRACE!

Mercy is the undeserved and unconditional love of God for us. Mercy is important and essential. But this is not grace. Mercy by itself does not change who and what we are. God has mercy upon the whole world but it does not transform every life. Forgiveness alone does not transform the nature of a person.

But Paul clearly taught that we are saved because of God's mercy but we are saved by His grace.

Ephesians 2:4-5 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),


What made me alive in Christ when I was dead in my transgressions?
The power of God's grace.




Grace = God's power working in and through a person.


You know what, i'm also in the process of unlearning and relearning.. if you want to know more about the true meaning of grace (power of God working in you and through you), then get this book 'God's brilliant plan' by Mark Drake. I don't normally invest my money on books..like seriously. But I invested on this. You must not miss out the meaning of grace!

Jangan kata I tak beritau! :p

no condemnation in Christ

I saw the prostitute whom I hugged before this...came to kawan and attended their bm/hokkien service :')

God draws people to Himself.
It's not about who we are, but who He is.
and the fact is this: He loves you.
He accepts you even when you mess up your life,
but He will not just leave you there.
He will restore you.
He will deliver you
He will save you.
Because He loves you.
Will you respond to His love?
Will you say 'Yes' to Him?


John 8:3-11
As he was speaking, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They put her in front of the crowd. “Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?” They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!

Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust.

When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?”

No, Lord,” she said.

And Jesus said, Neither do I. Go and sin no more.”




Lord, if You marked our transgressions,
Who would stand?

It's Your kindness Lord that leads us to repentance.

fearfully and wonderfully made



You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out
before a single day had passed.

Psalm 139:13-16
