See what i mean!

im malaysian..ahhahah

Congratulations Sean , you are 17% not Malaysian.

That means you're as Malaysian as...


Abdullah Badawi !

How Un-Malaysian Are You?

Is God deaf?

what if i were to say GOD IS DEAF.
yea...you heard me...what if i say that God is deaf....whatever words you speak...whatever words you say ...God wont understand .What if i were to go further and say that God does not understand different languages.hmmm? now you must be thinking im out of my mind...

Well the truth is....to some extend its true.why? because God only hears the heart...not the words out of our mouth. It does not mean that a person who talks the most out loud will be heard by God.IT is the person who means it from his heart...and through his heart...God sees it. YOu see....no matter what we say outwards...it is for a purpose of communication with your own species...humans....and humans speak different languages(complicated spiecies).....so languages were then meant for us to communicate among ourselves...to propose a thought to others...to let others know what you want them to know....but with God...God sees your heart

It is the same with prophecies.....God impresses upon a persons heart...and through that...the man interprets it into words for others to hear.It is always the heart.

So knowing this, we realise that when we pray for someone or something...it must be fromk the heart itself and not mere words. because words can be made up anytime without even meaning it.It is because God sees the heart that is even why mute people are able to communicate with God.

So then ...what exactly is the heart? is it the one that is beating now?the one pumping blood to your entire system?haha it would be funny because if Jesus is in my heart, then by doing a surgery, u can find Jesus...ahah so why do people pray and put their hands at the heart .? ahah beats me...symbolic i guess....

So the heart is actually the centre of your body....only slightly placed towards your left....not entirely...so it is really about in the middle of ur body....ok....not only the placement of it, but also the function of it is the main source why you are living...

So when we ask Jesus to come into our heart...we are not literally asking him to come into our body...aahha but we are now having Jesus as the center of our life....our life revolves around HIm not vice versa. HE is now the main source why we are living .....

so to summarize the whole thing
1) God listens to your heart
2)Jesus is the center of our life (heart)

peaze!!!!!

Women!

I was browsing through my archive and i found this old e-mail.ahhah stuff about women... i hope no one is offended but its really a fact that man and women are different.haha
Its an irony to say man and women are equal.....in the eastern point of view...women are lower class people..but in the western view...women have more rights than man....haha equality?u decide....

anyway...enjoy...ahahha

Lifting up hands

If ever someone , say your friend comes up to you and ask you why do you lift your hands in worship? what will be your answer? I guess you can say this blog is a good source of knowledge on how to defend your faith...cuz that has always been my interest apart from being a missionary.

So, lifting up holy hands.any of you can quote me a scripture...give you 10 seconds to think of it...
10...9....8.....5....1...times up...=). So is it really stated in the bible? Honestly i never knew it actually existed until i was just reading my bible randomly and came across 1 timothy 2: 8

"I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing"

So really why do we do the things we do? does it make one more holy if he/she lifts up his/her hand?Why must we lift up our hands?To start off, i would say it is not a must that you must follow the "rules" of worship. to me, worship is a lifestyle...not a special occasion. gone are the days when people needed to sacrifice animals to atone their sins.....now our life itself is a living sacrifice(romans 12:1).

So realising that it is not a must to lift up our hands.....then why do we do it? If you lift up your hands because other christians are doing it...or because the pastor says so....hmmm you know what will God say about it? IT says in isaiah 29 :13

"The Lord says:
"These people come near to me with their mouth
and honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
Their worship of me
is made up only of rules taught by men. "

It is amazing how God sees us differently from what people see us.i would stop here cuz it will be elaborated in the next post.hmmm so why do we lift up our hands?

You know, it isnt a must that we do it. I dont know about you, but I lift up my hands as a symbol of total surrender to God. When a police sees a person lifts up his hands, the police will know that he surrendered and is willing to submit to whatever orders are given in the next few moments. The same goes with God.When we lift up our hands, it is just a symbolic refrence as total submission before God.

God bless

A super testiomony

If we think we have challenges that is a big mountain to climb and unfairness in life, hopefully by reading this will motivate you to greater heights!

Beautiful in deed my friends, we too can all learn from this.....lovely testimony
;

Dear Friends,

An amazing story of faith in adversity. If Nick's story doesn't convince us about God's love & His power & what faith can do, then nothing else will.

My name is Nick Vujicic and I give God the Glory for how He has used my testimony to touch thousands of hearts around the world! I was born without limbs and doctors have no medical explanation for this birth "defect". As you can imagine, I was faced with many challenges and obstacles.

"Consider it pure joy, my Brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds."

....To count our hurt, pain and struggle as nothing but pure joy? As my parents were Christians, and my Dad even a Pastor of our church, they knew that verse very well. However, on the morning of the 4th of December 1982 in Melbourne (Australia), the last two words on the minds of my parents was "Praise God!". Their firstborn son had been born without limbs! There were no warnings or time to prepare themselves for it. The doctors we shocked and had no answers at all! There is still no medical reason why this had happened and Nick now has a Brother and Sister who were born just like any other baby.

The whole church mourned over my birth and my parents were absolutely devastated. Everyone asked, "if God is a God of Love, then why would God let something this bad happen to not just anyone, but dedicated Christians?" My Dad thought I wouldn't survive for very long, but tests proved that I was a healthy baby boy just with a few limbs missing.

Understandably, my parents had strong concern and evident fears of what kind of life I'd be able to lead. God provided them strength, wisdom and courage through those early years and soon after that I was old enough to go to school.

The law in Australia didn't allow me to be integrated into a main-stream school because of my physical disability. God did miracles and gave my Mom the strength to fight for the law to be changed. I was one of the first disabled students to be integrated into a main-stream school.

I liked going to school, and just try to live life like everyone else, but it was in my early years of school where I encountered uncomfortable times of feeling rejected, weird and bullied because of my physical difference. It was very hard for me to get used to, but with the support of my parents, I started to develop attitudes and values which helped me overcome these challenging times. I knew that I was different but on the inside I was just like everyone else. There were many times when I felt so low that I wouldn't go to school just so I didn't have to face all the negative attention. I was encouraged by my parents to ignore them and to try start making friends by just talking with some kids. Soon the students realized that I was just like them, and starting there God kept on blessing me with new friends.

There were times when I felt depressed and angry because I couldn't change the way I was, or blame anyone for that matter. I went to Sunday School and learnt that God loves us all and that He cares for you. I understood that love to a point as a child, but I didn't understand that if God loved me why did He make me like this? Is it because I did something wrong? I thought I must have because out of all the kids at school, I'm the only weird one. I felt like I was a burden to those around me and the sooner I go, the better it'd be for everyone. I wanted to end my pain and end my life at a young age, but I am thankful once again, for my parents and family who were always there to comfort me and give me strength.

Due to my emotional struggles I had experienced with bullying, self esteem and loneliness, God has implanted a passion of sharing my story and experiences to help others cope with whatever challenge they have in their life and let God turn it into a blessing. To encourage and inspire others to live to their fullest potential and not let anything get in the way of accomplishing their hopes and dreams.

One of the first lessons that I have learnt was not to take things for granted.

That spoke to my heart and convicted me to the point where that I know that there is no such thing as luck, chance or coincidence that these "bad" things happen in our life.

I had complete peace knowing that God won't let anything happen to us in our life unless He has a good purpose for it all.

I am now twenty- three years old and have completed a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Financial Planning and Accounting. I am also a motivational speaker and love to go out and share my story and testimony wherever opportunities become available. I have developed talks to relate to and encourage students through topics that challenge today's teenagers. I am also a speaker in the corporate sector.

I have a passion for reaching out to youth and keep myself available for whatever God wants me to do, and wherever He leads, I follow.

I have many dreams and goals that I have set to achieve in my life. I want to become the best witness I can be of God's Love and Hope, to become an international inspirational speaker and be used as a vessel in both Christian and non-Christian venues. I want to become financially independent by the age of 25, through real estate investments, to modify a car for me to drive and to be interviewed and share my story on the "Oprah Winfrey Show"! Writing several best-selling books has been one of my dreams and I hope to finish writing my first by the end of the year. It will be called "No Arms, No Legs, No Worries!"

I believe that if you have the desire and passion to do something, and if it's God's will, you will achieve it in good time. As humans, we continually put limits on ourselves for no reason at all! What's worse is putting limits on God who can do all things. We put God in a "box". The awesome thing about the Power of God, is that if we want to do something for God, instead of focusing on our capability, concentrate on our availability for we know that it is God through us and we can't do anything without Him. Once we make ourselves available for God's work, guess whose capabilities we rely on? God's!

Love!

ok ive really had a busy busy week...and couldnt post...my apologies...
anyway i did pen down my thoughts into a lil notebook which i would post it out slowly...say everyday or two days ....had alot of thoughts running through my head lately...hahaha
so anyway here is my first of the many.... its about LOVE! woot! everyone go "aaawww" quick! thank you thank you.haha

So here is how i concluded it. GOd does NOT give love,He does NOT create love, He does not destroy love.why? because God is love itself! you know in physics (sounds nerdy) ...we study about newtons law...and it states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed.I find this principle the same here.Love cannot be created nor destroyed.love has and always been existing!Believe it or not that when we look around us, we see times changing, fashion changing...everything changes as years go by....agree? but you know whats so amazing?LOve has always existed no matter how many changes there are....you can find love everywhere....and literally everywhere at any moment of time! even when people are suffering...during the war or something chaotic....there is still love that exist in those times!

You see....my point is....God IS love! not just a matter of a nice and common phrase ...but if you realise what it actually means....man....its not the same ol' phrase ya know.

It says...

John 13:34-35 (New International Version)

"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."

now realise this God is love....so if we potray love to one another.....we are actually potraying God to others! christianity is all about living a life that reflects of God to others. and by showing love to one another...and because God is love....we are actually showing God to others...and just as Jesus said...then all men will know that we are his disciples. It is just through a lifestyle of love....

Colours

Colours ...what if colours were not as they seem to be?what do i mean by this? lets say if i point at a red car...and i ask you what colour is it.....you would say red because all these while people have thought you that it is red.but what if that colour has been grey...and because you have been told it is red...therefore you call it red?

Confusing?hmmm my point is...what if everyone were to see colours differently?What if my black was actually your purple all along? but because we were told that it is black all these while...therefore we say it is black.What if what if colours were not what they actually were? will it make a difference if it was? no...but it is a good thought to think about......

Virtual world

Sometimes as i look around me, i wonder what if everything around me wasnt real.What if everything i see around me only exist virtually.It would be like me being in a virtual reality game where i am the only real thing around.What if...what if...
I may sound crazy now but what if it is so?That everything around me is not real ,existing only virtually just as a test for us to see if we can go on to the "next stage".what if even our parents, friends, relatives or even me were programmed to act the way the should act and that everything happens just because it is programmed to do so.So in that case, everything happens in the end is just to see how you would react to things around yourself.
So take for example a friend who just hurt you so badly.What if it happened because God wanted her to do that to you?What if God just wanted to see how you would react to it?Come to think of it, i guess Job did come to this stage where everything was merely existing primarily to test him.It is an interesting thought i had for years...what if everything was not real..or maybe it was all this while?

marching

haha guess what peeps, believe it or not i was in a marching team which won the most awards in my school e.g school sprts day and curiculum days.can u find me in the photo?haha its bottom row..5th from left..Well let me begin my life as a st.john memeber....

once upon a time..in a land far far away,...okok cut the crap... hmm i was in standard 4 (equivalent to year 4)...i was in the tae kwan do unit...hahah after few weeks i gave up...then went to st.john. For those of you who dont know, we malaysians have to pick one uniform unit, one sports/games, and one club. It is a must.So every saturday we had to go to school for these activities....

by form 1 (year 7) ...we moved into another school where i selected my clubs and units
1. uniform unit = St.JOhn
2. Sports/games = chess
3. club = Literature drama and dance/ interact club

So yea...this was my secondary school life on saturdays...So lets single out st.john for the moment.I started in form 1 as a recruit....in form 2(year 8) i took my first aid test which i had to pass to remain in the cadet.Form 3( year9) i begin to be actively involve.I remember walking around the city collecting donations.....being on duty for different sports...
form4 (year10) we were seniors and were training junors by then....i would talk about the training in a minute.... form 5(year11) we finally had our ranks....we took a test and out of the whole cadet we could only have one seargent, 4 corperals and 8 lance corperals. I got a lance corperal which was good enough...

So anyway the training we had every saturday was to run 7 laps around the field.... which is 7x400 =2800m ......yea we run 2.8 km every week...after that we did 100 situps and 100 push ups.......these figures are however the minimum..... most of the times it is more thatn that (including random punishments given)...... we trained hard to be the best in the school which we were and diddnt want to let the standard drop.

The awards we won were simply uncountable i dare say that we won 90% of the trophies.....marching was our main strgth i guess.... I remember being a lance corperal shouting orders till i had no more voice...hahah..

so anyway......anyone wanna march?hahah
This was taken after we were competing in the NGO competition.... guess which one is me...hahha
answer= 2nd from left

The power failure!

i was having slight stomach cramps during dinner.... dont raise your eyebrows at me!I am a guy i tell you...i assure you that i am a guy! hahaha the stomach cramps was mainly at my hips....i dunno it it was stomach ulsers or not but it lasted awhile.With the pain i had to stay back and not go prayer meeting....

but who in the world would expect a power failure?I was alone on the computer when poof! no electricity! 1st ly it is wierd because it is in Australia and it is very very rare for this to happen!2ndly i was at home alone...not that i was scared that evrything was pitch black now, but i was wondering what can i do now?I mean what can you do if there was no electricity?MOst activities or should i say nearly all the activities require light....not pitch black...

ok so the power failure happens at 8.30 pm ...i was wondering this is funny....isnt this the time prayer starts?I mean like in ACF we have worship first and at approximately at 8.30, we would start praying intensely.hmmm coincidence that the power failure happens at this time? I dont know about you but i dont believe in coincidences!After all the random things that happen this week.....all the more i should believe that God is trying to tell me something.

So i took out my guitar...and worshiped God in pitch black darkness....i managed to find my guitar using the torch light function on my phone.So i just began soaking in his presence, wroshipping like never before.How wonderful it was...just basking there....knowing that its just between you and God....after that i took out my bible, and using the torch light function on my phone, i read 5 chapters of the bible where God did speak to me saying in exodus 4 :11-12 "The LORD said to him, "Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the LORD ? 12 Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say."

It may not mean anything to some of you but it does for me.I know God is preparing me for something.It is just too obvious to even doubt it.But i shall wait upon Him until the day is right....in HIs timing..in His timing...

Now to sum up the past four days...
saturday = the random hug (night)
monday = the random call (night)
Tuesday = the random power failure(night)

Seriously.....i dont know what to expect tomorrow.... or even the next few days.....things are just going wierd these few days...seriously...

Is God trying to tell me something?

ok last night was a bad night...i did my chem report until 2am and guess what, after i saved it, the comp hang...i had to restart and i tried opening the file and now it says the file is corrupted...man....so i had little amount of sleep for nothing! arrrggghhh

Anyway on the way back from school i was trying to dissapear a 50 cent coin.....and oops...i dropped it down the car seat.It was tough to bend down and find it so i took the 1 dollar coin and practice with it.....and 3 mins later i dropped that coin down the seat again....ok so after we reached home, i looked under the seat and searched for the 2 missing coins and guess what...until now i still cant find it!hahaha guessed I really did make it dissapear....at the expense of $1.50 ahahah..... man i could have bought some lollies with it....

So anyway just awhile ago someone called up and the conversation went like this..
-----sister comes in my room handing me the house phone------
Me :HEllo?
Aunty :hey this is aunty XXX
Me :oh hi aunty
Aunty :oh i just wanted to tell your parents this but your parents are not in...
Me :oh ok..
Aunty :(sounded muffled)I just wanted to say you have been brought up really well by your parents
Me :er...sorry can you say it again...
Aunty :oh I just wanted to say you have been brought up really well by your parents
Me :oh..hahah thank you....
Aunty :yea, because that day as i was walking towards the library a group of you came out and you were the only one who greeted me, i find that a very good example especially for us as asians......

--------cut short the elaboration----------------

Me :oh haha yea it is just a form of respect...hahah
Aunty :yea so i just wanted to tell your parents that.
Me :oh thanks aunty
Aunty :yea you have a good rest
Me :haha sure..you too...
-------------click-------------------

hmmm and i begin to wonder why would someone just call just to say that?hahaha randoms?well i had too many randoms in one week and on both occasions it made me smile...on both occasions it was at night....about the same time(9.30 pm).........maybe God is trying to tell me something....hmmmm or i am just too dense to figure it out.....
