Light Of The World!: It's Time To Step Up

Light Of The World!

Hello there, world! I'm Yong Zhen Kheng a.k.a King! I'm a 24 young man who has given my life to God! I face plenty of challenges and mountains daily, but it is by the grace of God that I'm able to stand tall with His strength in such a world that we live in. "Light Of The World!" is the name of my blog. Because in such a dark world that we live in, everyone is looking for that something somewhere somehow to fill and satisfy their souls. And that is where the Word of God comes in, where love and hope are always present and living. God is the Light of the world, and my prayer is that we will go beyond the call of duty to show love to the people around us with the love that He has shown us - That they may know just how real and amazing our God is! This is what we're here for: To show the world how He love it. This is what we're made for: To lay it all down like He did :) Our God is an awesome God, He reigns from heaven and earth, with wisdom, power and love, our God is an awesome God! And He has chosen us to be the Light of the world, so come let us share the Good News with the world together! (:

>> Sincerely, a man on many missions.

It's Time To Step Up

"God wants to bring transformation and correcting to our lives through suffering!", this was what I remember from a Sunday sermon a long time ago.

Hence, however cliche this may sound, but if you're suffering in any form, from the lightest condition to the heaviest condition, God is surely stirring up something in your life =)

A few days ago, I was so pressured by the amount of assignments that I have in my college, I wanted to stop doing anything and just give up! It wasn't easy for me, I kept thinking for hours about how to accomplish my work, and finally told myself I'm not going to give up.

This line came to me while I was amidst of my struggle, "If today was your last day, what would you do?" And I told myself that I'm going to give my best to God no matter how many times I struggle, fall or even disobey Him. I'm sure it's not going to be easy.

Everytime when I look back at my life, at all the wonders God has done, like giving me a second chance to live (Lung Operation), Protecting me from the evil spirits (Mat Rempit with parangs robbed my friends and I), Teaching me life-values that cannot be bought and I didn't had to go through them to make a mistake (Loving other people and so on), Letting me know that I can achieve great things with His strength (Becoming a leader in so many areas, in my high school, even got the best trainee in National Service) and even teaching me perseverance (My family crisis and issues, and how my life has been shaped), when I look back at all these events again I'm 200% sure that the LORD is with me! How much more can I thank Him? He has been so good to me, and yet I neglect and disobey Him so frequently.

I would like to encourage you to do this every morning when you wake up, ask yourself this question, "If today was my last day, what would I do?" Remember, whatever you are about to do, do it for the LORD. So that at the end of the day God would be able to say, "Well done." =)

It's time I step up in life, to give my all to Him. Hence, I would like to encourage you, my brothers and sisters in Christ, that it's time for all of us step up for Him. It's time we give our all to Him. No matter which point you are in life, NEVER EVER GIVE UP ON THE LORD, BECAUSE HE NEVER GAVE UP ON YOU IN LIFE =)
