Just believe.
Many nights we pray with no proof anyone could hear In our hearts a hopeful song Wwe barely understood Now we are not afraid although we know there’s much to fear We were moving mountains long before we know we could There can be miracles when you believe Though hope is frail it’s hard to kill Who knows what miracles you can achieve Somehow you will when you believe You will when you...

F.A.S.T
Was having a chat with one of my schoolmate WY on God’s leading and she bought up the F.A.S.T acronym and says that God uses those who are F.A.S.T. Essentially it means those who is
Faithful
Available
Submissive
Teachable

Unka Glen's Citadel of Enlightenment: You don't... →
unkaglen:
hisquietvoice asked: How do I get the courage and desire to preach the gospel with conviction? I know this sounds stupid but until now I’ve never been able to go up to someone and tell them about the love of Christ. [edited for length]
Unka Glen answered: You mentioned “preaching” the Gospel, and I think that’s where I’d start to answer this. Far too many of us have had almost...

Death on the tree 20 centuries ago
It was for freedom that Christ set us free. No, he didn’t complete his works halfway so that we are still binded in chains after all these while. His words said that He has already completed the works the Father had sent Him to do. “It is finished.” (John 19:30) He said. Finished means completion. Done. No more. So why are we trying to complete for God what He has already...

Dear God,
Live in me. Make me die. None of me, and all of You.

Jesus Is LORD: Don’t Give Up →
christisenough:
“Here is a call for the endurance of the saints” (Revelation 14:12).
We all long for rest and refreshment. That’s a God-given longing that he promises to fulfill: “I will satisfy the weary soul, and every languishing soul I will replenish” (Jeremiah 31:25).
And in a very real way Jesus gives rest to “all who labor and are heavy laden” and come to him (Matthew 11:28)....

Doubt Vs. Believe
You don’t doubt the one you love; you trust them. So to doubt God is actually non-biblical and wrong; you don’t doubt your faith in those you love, you trust them. This means God.
So, if you have been praying about something for a very long time now but you have kept doubting, then God will NOT answer it because this is what it says in James 1:6-8.
But when you ask, you must believe...

Answered prayers!
Today was soooo good! I get to dance and twiddle and spin around madly like a little kid during lesson time, lunch with my classmates Joey, Zaf and Si Min for the first time and we spoke about having porcupines, snakes, baby jaguar (yes a jaguar!!) and other exotic animals as pets, I get to go to cell fellowship because my class coordinator extended the dateline for a report I was rushing for back...

I’ll be the first to admit. I am so pissed off at someone right now… I don’t see eye to eye with this person and I’m thinking this person probably feels the same way as me too. We are both strong-willed, and we both head straight on into one another. We have to work together because we are a group. But I know that’s because we just want the best for our group.

Bli and sis
I’m done with my presentation for tomorrow morning and barely completed for my child study report due next Monday. But before I slept, 2 thoughts crossed my mind. Brian Li’s grandmother and my sis.
Jesus, please heal Brian Li’s grandmother and make her live. I pray for that to be Your will.

I think it’s pretty amazing that despite work and study everyday… I still feel pretty fine. It must be the grace of God.
However, I can’t wait to go back to church.

Moses
Of all the characters in the Bible, I think I am most like one. Moses. Unworthy.
EXODUS 3
Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2 There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire...

Desire
How have I ever be sure of myself since knowing God? All I’m ever sure of, is God.
How the mighty fall. Today, as I sit working in bed with a food presentation to be due tomorrow and a child study report to be due in 3 more days, my mind goes back to the times when I have felt mighty, have been mighty. Those were the times when I have felt better than myself than I ought to.

How I Interpret Osteen vs. How I Interpret God
Osteen: Live in your victory! God wants you to not suffer but prosper!
Jesus: Live in my victory. God knows you will suffer, but he will produce a glory for you that will outlast your current troubles.

“I know men of God that have Doctorates in Theology and shouldn’t be within five miles of a pulpit. They rely on their own reasoning instead of the Holy Spirit. That is a total lack of faith, and God does not respond to it. All of Paul’s formal education went down the tubes when He met Jesus on the Damascus Road. He had the sense to follow the Holy Spirit rather than reason it out...

Till the day I see Him
Everyday, I can’t wait for the day I would go home to be with the Lord! I can’t imagine what a glorious day that will be. I can’t imagine when the angels of God would be singing and dancing over me. I can’t imagine when I’ll finally see Him, face to face. I know the day will be so much beautiful than all other.
To have His presence, to dwell within His housing, to...

Do a handstand. →
breanna-lynn:
“God, that’s crazy.”
She had heard His voice and knew it well, there was no doubt. He had asked her do something simple, but that she did not understand at all. Sitting the her car, in the parking lot of a 7/11 gas station, she was only hesitating now because of the anticipation of embarrassment.
Do a headstand by the pop machine inside.
She got out of the car, went inside....

Things to do

What advantage is it to us to know that God has created, and by His providence does still uphold all things?
That we may be patient in adversity, thankful in prosperity; and that in all things which may hereafter befall us, we place our firm trust in our faithful God and loving Father, that nothing shall separate us from His love; since all creatures are so in His hand, and that without his will...

Asleep in the Light, by Keith Green
Do you see, do you see, All the people sinking down? Don’t you care, don’t you care? Are you gonna let them drown?
How can you be so numb, Not to care if they come? You close your eyes, And pretend the job’s done.
“Oh bless me Lord, bless me Lord”, You know it’s all I ever hear. No one aches, no one hurts, No one even sheds one tear.
But He cries, He weeps, He bleeds, And He cares for your...

What can we rejoice in?
When you are busy
When you are tired
When you are stressed out
When you are with friends
When you are working
When you are studying
When you are on your bed
He wants you to rejoice in spite of the circumstances, in any circumstances, to rejoice in Him.
Whether you are barren or pregnant, whether you are single or married, whether you are healthy or sick, whether you are busy or relaxed.

When I log in, I check back on the number of followers I gain. But why? What does it mean to me? Why do I need the followers for? For myself, or for God? I don’t need any followers. For who am I? I’m nobody but a worm that the Lord has given life to. (Job 25) My life is but a short, mere handbreath (Psalm 39:5) There is nothing deserving or worthy about me that people ought to take...
