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.

Faith



I believe faith is the key to many things, even despite circumstances.
Having faith doesn't necessarily mean that you'll have the road map.
It just means that you're trusting and believing without knowing.
To have faith in God, is to trust Him without knowing what's coming your way.

"By faith Abraham,
when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance,
obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going."
[Hebrews 11:8]

Abraham had no idea where he was heading,
But he had faith that God would guide Him to the right place.
All God told Him was just that He will provide a nation for Him.
And with no road map, Abraham took that step of faith.

Sometimes having faith can be the most difficult thing.
Because it requires us to go beyond the natural things.
Remember the part where Abraham was called to sacrifice Isaac?
He obeyed because even though he may not understand God's plans,
He knows that he can always trust God.
But thankfully God stopped Abraham and saved his son in the nick of time.

Often at times when we take that step of faith,
Troubles and circumstances always seem to drown us so quickly.
But it is at these times where we should remind ourselves:
These are just tests of faith.
And with great faith, comes great doubts.
All the men of great faith in the Bible stumbled and doubted countless of times.
But they held on to His Word and managed to strive through the doubts.

Always remember that failure is not the end of the world.
Failure means you have learnt something,
And you have the chance to start all over again.
Failure doesn't mean that God has abandoned you;
It just means that God has a better idea for you (:

The Holy Experience


I would like to share my mini experience and some things that I've learned.

"The Holy Experience" is the camp hosted by the CBC Subang that I recently went!
It was a camp where many of my perspectives were put into place;
And a change was brought to my heart as well.

I don't know many people from CBC Subang, only a handful of people.
But not knowing that many people brought joy to my heart.
Why? Cause there were so many new people I could have conversations with.
There was so many new things I could learn from other people!
And at the same time, I'm given to opportunity to inspire people too!

It was really a fun camp as we all traveled to Fraser's Hill in a bus.
As we reached the campsite, we were put into 5 groups.
And within each group a captain was appointed.
By God's grace, I became the captain of my team and there began our journey!
Our group was named the "Low-Fat Wallflower"
(Woaaahhh what a great name!)
We hustled through games, exercises, sessions and devotions.
We trusted and worked with each other as we created our group chant and sketch!
By the end of the camp, we managed to achieve 3rd place.
But the most important thing is this:
We already won as a team in our hearts,
For we placed our trust in each other and worked together as a team!

On the way back in the bus, I shared my lung operation story.
It was amazing how it was able to inspire and encourage many people!
And it served as a reminder for me that God is with me!

The main purpose of me going to the camp was actually to have a God-encounter.
To hear what He has to say to me through the camp.
And true enough, He spoke to me and changed my perspectives.

Out of all the things that God spoke to me, 2 of them stood out the most:

Firstly,
Finding a partner with the right heart and values is very important.
Because as you embark on your adventure through your journey of life,
You'll find that your partner and you will rely on each other a lot.
Our speaker Reverend Koe spoke and shared about one of his experience.
Many many years ago, he and his girlfriend (Wife now) was in Singapore.
They were ready to depart to New Zealand,
When suddenly they lost all their important documents.
And just as Reverend Koe was about to take the easy way out,
To go back Malaysia and not go New Zealand,
His girlfriend hit him on his head and said,
"You of little faith! This is just a test for us!"
And true enough, a phone rang days later.
They managed to retrieve all the important documents back.
This story speaks loudly to me because it shows the values of the partner.
That when you are with a person who has the right heart and values,
He/she will be able to encourage you to pull through when you can't.
Therefore selecting your partner is a matter of wisdom.

Secondly,
The 90/10 principle. What does it mean?
We have no control over 10% of what happens to us in life,
But 90% of the rest are determined by our reaction towards it.
If someone accidentally spilled some milk onto my shirt,
I could either get really mad and bombard that person with critical words,
And give myself unnecessary stress at the same time which I don't need.
Or I could just forgive and remind that person to be more careful.
In every situation that we are faced,
How we react to it will determine how good or bad our day will be.
It's all in the mind, and there's always a battle going on in there!

The main theme verse of the camp is Jeremiah 29:13-14.
But I believe verse 11 and 12 is equally important.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord,
"plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future.
Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
[Jeremiah 29:11-13]

A Breath Of Fresh Air



Hi there! Planet earth! Do you need a breath of fresh air?
Well, I've got just the perfect breath of fresh air for you!
But before that, I would like to share with you why I'm doing so (:

Let me begin:
God is good, and yes that's true.
His timing is always perfect, and He knows what he does.
Sometimes when you're at a crossroad, or circumstance in life;
God would give you rest, assurance and peace at the right time.
Sometimes it comes in a form of the Word, a gift, through time, or even a person.

For me at the current moment, it was through a person.
A person who has so much similar interests, passion and heart as mine.
A person that loves God and acknowledges how much God loves her too.
And a person that is pretty cool with my lil' brother!
That, is a rare find -> At least to me.
There are so many of her values that I admire,
And how I would spend more time knowing her.
As I fellowship with her, she tells me how I have encouraged her.
But what I didn't tell her, was how she encouraged me more than I did!
The moment she explained to me that God brought her out of her emotions,
That He rescued her and led her back to Him.
That He has become her number one priority in life,
And nothing nor any person could take His place.
And how she has learned from her past mistakes,
And is ready to conquer the next mountain in her life.
I almost cried and teared up because it was so amazing to hear her story.
It reminded me so much of many of my battles that God has delivered me from.
That through all my sorrows, struggles, mistakes and failures:
God never ceased to pull me back to Him.

Just as we shared our stories with each other,
both our stories merged and it is here I find:
How He captivated our broken hearts and showed us the depth of His love.
How He transformed our minds, and aligned every of our thoughts with His.
How He brought us from darkness to life.
And now for the both of us: We've found our purpose in life: To glorify God.
And we know that God is looking out for us!

At least we now know: We both exist!
And that: God's name was lifted high!

Therefore here's my shout-out to everyone in this galaxy:
God has created you for a purpose.
And to each and every one of us, He made each of us unique.
So let us take what He has given us, all the skills, gifts and talents;
To continue to impact and encourage the world!
And while doing so, we learn to show love and make time for the people around us!
Sometimes God brings certain people into your life at different points of your life,
Some to encourage you, some to speak with you,
Some to teach you and some to listen to you.
And a handful to spend a lifetime with you!
This life we have, has value, meaning and purpose.
This life that we have, is worth living!

See,
I'm just like you - If you cut me, I will bleed.
I'll go hungry - If I don't have food to eat
We're not that different at all hey!
So let's step up and make our lives count!
To make it count: For Him!

God knows when your soul feels tired and weary,
When everything seems to be mundane and spinning in a circle.
God knows your heart's desires,
And all the silent prayers and tears you call out to Him when nobody is looking.
And it is here today that God wants you to know,
That He is still with you and will continue to guide you.
At every moment of your life, He will provide the right thing at the right time.

He, is the Breath of fresh air that I'm talking about.
The One that gives you amazing joy and peace.
The One that always wipe away all your tears and fight away all of your fears.
That in the midst of all your scars, hurt, pain and emotional prisons that you're in,
Always remember:
You're still alive, even though a part of you has died,
He  promises to take your heart, and bring it back to life!
No matter what we're in,
While we're in the middle of it,
We're gonna keep praising Him!
Because God is on our side, at all times!
And for that, we can march ahead with confidence and assurance at all times!

Press on hey (:

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
[Matthew 11:28-30]

“I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.”
[Jeremiah 31:25]

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
[Proverbs 3:5-6]

- You're still alive, even though a part of you has died -
- He, is the Breath of fresh air that you need -

God Provides


Just yesterday: Christmas Day, I woke up in the morning ready to battle the new day.
Walking around my kitchen I realized that I have nothing to eat.
And with nothing to eat (With my ultra hungry tummy),
I decided that my main mission is to find something to eat at the shops nearby.

After traveling to many shop and restaurants around my house,
and a moderate proximity from my house,
I came to find out that NOTHING IS OPEN at all.
Even KFC and Subway are closed!
I hesitated a little,
finding out that even the vending machine that sells instant noodles is being locked up
(Even the vending machine is on Christmas holiday mode oh great!)

With literally nothing to munch on,
I looked up in the sky and thought perhaps this could be the end of the world......
for my tummy... at least for one day!
And in my own little mind,
I even whispered to God:
"Where is: God Provides, cause I'm hungry and I have nothing to eat."

I then decided to call up a friend and ask if he was at home,
and has any food to help this starving young man.
Much to my surprise, he was at home.
He instantly welcomed me over to his living quarters.
The moment I entered the interior side of his house,
he was already cooking with a friend a meal:
Spaghetti with unique sauce
(Just because I don't know what sauce it is, we'll stick with Unique Sauce).
They were cooking the spaghetti for a portion of 2 people only.

My eyes begin to look around for my food,
to see if he has anything for me as he said he did.
But, they took the portion of 2 people, and divided it among 3 people including me.
I looked at them and couldn't really understand why they were so hospitable to me,
and why they would make their small meal a smaller meal just to feed me.
Even though it was very small, it managed to calm my starving thundering tummy.

I thought, "Okay, after thanking them for making lunch for me,
I probably shouldn't disturb them for my dinner.
 I'll just find something somewhere somehow for my dinner."
But miraculously they invited me over to another house for dinner.
And they cooked for me.

It was the largest meal I ever had in Australia,
so huge that the guy even offered me more food,
and he told me I only had so little (Which was a lot!)
My tummy became pregnant-like due to the overload of food and I was so full!

I went home, lied down on my bed and tears begin streaming my down my eyes.
I said to God silently: "God really provides."
And this is a constant reminder not just to me but everyone who will ever read this,
that God will always provide.
He always give us what He knows we need,
and He will never forsake us
 That if He can provide me with food that I can't find,
how much more should I trust Him?

God has always been, still is and will always be good to us.
And it breaks my heart to know that we as humans,
have failed Him over and over and over again,
yet He still forgave us and draw out His hand to catch us whenever we fall.
That we can never understand such love and compassion He has shown us.
It is with great pain and sacrifice that He showed us the Truth,
therefore let us honor it with all our hearts in faith, hope and love.

And always remember: God Provides :)

Give Thanks



- GIVE THANKS -

How wonderful is God?
He is wonderful beyond measure.

God has been good to me even in my dry and darkest seasons in life.
Regardless of what I go through, He never lets my hand go.
He has always been, still is and will always guide me to His right path.
Thinking about how blessed I am with what I have in my life, it just make me cry;
because He gives me His amazing love even though I'm not perfect.
He loves me -> For who I am and for who I am created for -> Him.

There is nothing else that I can do to make Him love me more;
because He already loves me for the imperfectness that I am.
And His grace extends beyond the highest mountains and the deepest valleys.
What can compare to such Amazing Love?

He calms the storms in my life and gives me wisdom through the tough seasons.

Together with a team, I joined a competition "48 Hour Melbourne Film Project".
My team and I had to compete with 48 other film teams
(Which consists of professionals)
I was the audio recordist as well as the sound designer.
I went for the Film Screening yesterday night, and it was heart-thumping.
There were 16 other films which were solid films, and it was a very tough competition.
Being there with every other filmmakers makes me really nervous.
I expected to leave the competition empty-handed and just be there for the experience.
But much to our surprise, the emcee announced my group as one of the finalist.
I was bubbling out with joy, but thought perhaps we wouldn't win anything.

Tonight (A few hours ago), I went to the Awards Ceremony with the Top 12 Finalists.
The night began with the Top 12 Final Films being played in the cinema.
After the screening, the emcee began announcing the teams that won each awards.
There were many Awards like Best Actor, Best Editing, Best Director and so forth.
And then it came to the Best Sound Design.
The moment the emcee said, "And the Best Sound Design goes to...", I was expecting him to say a Western or European name like "... Tommy!" or "... Bryan!" or even "... James!"
But then, he said, "... The best sound design goes to... this guy who knows how to make thriller and suspense in a film, he is... Yong Zhen Kheng."
At that moment, I dropped something... Yes, it was my jaw.
I went up ahead and took the award and gave a not-so-prepared-cause-I-was-still-shocked speech.

After receiving the award (All the way until now), I felt that I didn't deserve it.
I know that other films had better sound designs compared to mine, but yet I won?
I couldn't quite get a grasp on why I won the award.
But on the way back home, I realized something.
"God planned the entire thing that I may not be too proud because of what I have done, but to be humbled because He has blessed me with this award and provided me with such a great team."
It was all because of Him, that I was even there in the first place.
And it just brings me to tears because God is so good to me.
Even in the down parts of my life, He never fails to lift me up in His grace.

Therefore if you ask me:
How wonderful is God?
He is wonderful beyond measure.

"GIVE THANKS in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus."
[1 Thessalonians 5:18]

- For everything He has done in our lives, let us GIVE THANKS :) -

Bought At A Price



"All of us, like sheep, have strayed away.
We have left God’s paths to follow our own."
[Isaiah 53:6]

Every single one of us, men and women alike, old and young.
Have all strayed away and followed our ways to build our own kingdom in this world.
We have all tried tirelessly to build our pride, fame, glory and all this world can offer us.
And we have all forgotten about the perfect sacrifice made for us 2000 years ago.
Men have disembarked their journey of faith and live in guilt, pain, regrets, suffering.
Many raised idols in their heart and worship the things of this very world.
Some continue to live in agonizing defeat, dwelling in past mistakes.
And some, never hear the truth about the perfect sacrifice,
The perfect sacrifice that has already laid its foundation for them.
Many, have embarked on a mission to fulfill their own self desires.
And some, are blinded by the lies of men which binds them from the truth they seek.

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"
[Romans 3:23]

"The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever." So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken."
[Genesis 3:22-23]

And men, was separated from God.
Our sinful desires has consumed us, and we began to live for our own mortality.
Years and years passed with more and more people living hopelessly.
Their eyes are open, but they never see.
Their hears are attentive, but they never hear.
The world that God originally created for all mankind, crushed at His very own eyes.
Men became evil, men became impure, men became selfish.
And just at the very moment when God was about to wipe out all of mankind,
His tears fell to the earth.
His never ending love, gave us mercy, grace and compassion.
He decides to save us once again, to restore us to Him regardless of how evil we are.
God, sent Christ for us.
The Perfect Sacrifice that laid its foundation for all of mankind.

"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
[Romans 5:8]

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
[John 3:16]

Why do God loves us so much?
So much that He is willing to sacrifice His Son for all of mankind?
We deserved none of it, and deserved no part in His kingdom.
We were all heading to our destruction, perishing a little by little with every step.
But God's love - Is beyond our comprehension.
He loves us so much, that He will do everything He can in His power to save us.
And with all the darkness, evil, corruptness, and impurity we have in our heart,
Christ made His journey to our world.
He carried the weight of the world on His shoulder.
Tempered with iron nails on the cross, and a crown of thorns on His head,
 God's tears fell onto the earth again as He watched His Son die for us.
And when Christ was raised to life.
It was done.
Everything that was lost, has now been restored.
There was no way, but God made a way.

"But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him."
[Luke 15:20]

It is with great pain and sacrifice, that all these were done for us.
God laid the foundation of salvation for the entire world.
That who now believes in Him, will be saved.

"If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
[Romans 10:9]

Now our mission is to persevere towards the coming home.
That means since God has saved us, we have to live pursuing Him.
For all that He has done, all He asks of us is to come back to Him.
And it is our call of duty to repent, and stop living in our own darkness.
Because if we continue to live in darkness, we will die in our own flesh.

"Because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am about to spit you out of my mouth."
[Revelation 3:16]

God sees your heart.
He sees every thing you do behind closed doors and in the open.
He sees the motives you carry out with every schemes you make.
And He is here today, to tell you that He cares for you.
No matter what you've done in the past, He will restore.
No matter how weary your soul is, He will sustain.
But you need to repent, and make that decision to pursue Him.
You may struggle, you may make mistakes, and you may stumble often at times.
But what Christ did on the cross 2000 years ago,
It is enough to save you from all your sins and all the sins you will ever commit.
And all He asks of you is to honor Him with your life and love Him with all your heart.
He has chosen you to be a light to the world for Him.
Lifted out of the ashes, you have been found in the aftermath of His grace and mercy.
Perhaps it's time to step up for God this very moment.
Because you know that He's with you every step of the way.
And His love will light the way for you.

So persevere and wait for the coming home, and do not be caught off guard.
Let us stand in the foundation of Truth and lift one another up.
And let us go beyond religion and the call of duty to live a true, pure and selfless life.

"Behold, I come like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake and keeps his clothes with him, so that he may not go naked and be shamefully exposed."
[Revelation 16:15]

"You were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."
[1 Corinthians 6:20]

- Lifted out of the ashes, we are found in the aftermath -

God Is Good



- GOD IS GOOD -

When things don't work out,
When there is no rain in the drought,
When your plans falls apart when you never dream they would,
When your life doesn't go the way you thought it should,
When all you can do is breathe and cry,
And when there doesn't seem any hope anymore for you to try,
It's okay.
Sometimes it's because: God is GOOD.

I've learned from all my past disappointments and broken dreams,
That God in all His love and mercy is looking out for me.
The King of kings, the Lord of lords knows what you're going through.
He knows exactly what you're feeling every second of the day,
He knows what your heart is weighed and concerned about,
Every single circumstances, situations and struggles that you are facing,
God is still with you and He is always watching over you.

The promises He has spoken to you,
He will be faithful in keeping His promises.
Instead of putting God's timing into your own timing,
How about giving God your steering wheel and trust Him?

Sometimes waiting upon God to fulfill His promise,
Is like waiting for a train at a bus station.
Sure, there will be times where you'll be desperate,
There will be times where you'll feel broken,
Or even at times you won't have the strength to stand and wait anymore.
But remember: When you cannot stand, you can fall on Him.
For He will never leave you nor forsake you.
God is always with you.

His ways are higher than all our ways.
When we ask God for things,
He always gives us what is best instead of merely what is better.
And God wants you to commit every single plans and agendas you have to Him.
That even when things seems to be falling apart,
Or when all the facts and figures are against you,
When God is on your side, you are still the majority.
When all else fails, God doesn't.
Because God is GOOD and He is always GOOD.

Don't let today's disappointments cast a shadow on tomorrow's dreams!
Because that disappointment might just be a blessing in disguise!
God has something great stored up for you!
Therefore: Keep pressing on!

Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Romans 8:28 says, "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

People always ask why do bad things happen to good people.
But have you tried asking why do people do bad things to a GOOD God?
And yet God still loves us regardless of how messed up we are.
That's real love, because God is GOOD.

Proverbs 16:9 says, "Cause in the heart of a man he makes his plan, but the Lord directs his steps."

- God is GOOD, all the time -

LOVE


- LOVE -

There are 7.5 billion people in this world.
And everybody has their own struggles in life.
There are so many people who are brokenhearted, depressed, down, and so many other things.
They are looking for someone to hear them out and love them for who they are.
Perhaps it's time to live in true, pure, selfless LOVE.
Will you go beyond religion and the call of duty to show true, pure, selfless LOVE to the people around you?

Jesus is all about LOVE.
In the entire Bible, everything Jesus did was out of LOVE.
It didn't matter whether they were a pagan, witch, sinner or whatever.
It didn't matter what they did in the past, who they were and where they've came from.
Jesus showed them LOVE.
He opened the eyes of the blind, He healed the sick, He made the lame walk.
Remember, we are all sinners. Everyone has sin in their life, and nobody is perfect.
That means we didn't deserve salvation, we didn't deserve someone perfect to die for us.
And yet, Jesus Christ came to die for us.
He came to earth to seek and save the lost.
He came to earth to die for us while we were still enemies of Christ and sinners.
He gave up His life, that we may have life.
And most importantly, He showed us LOVE, that we may show others LOVE.

That's why this LOVE that Jesus Christ has shown us;
It is our call of duty to show that same LOVE to this world that we live in.
To not judge people, but to show them LOVE.
For it is by the LOVE of Christ that we can show LOVE to other people.
People who you think don't deserve LOVE, they are the one that deserves the most LOVE.
But why should I keep showing LOVE to the people that takes me for granted?
If God were to ask that question about you, then Jesus wouldn't have saved us.
But because God LOVES us unconditionally, He has asked us to do the same.
And the LOVE of Christ will sustain you to keep on showing LOVE to other people!
Will you go beyond religion and the call of duty to show true, pure, selfless LOVE to the people around you?

How do we know that God LOVES us?
John 3:16 says, "For God so LOVED the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."
Romans 5:8 says, "But God shows his LOVE for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

And Jesus said:
Matthew 5:43-48 says, "You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall LOVE your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, LOVE your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you LOVE those who LOVE you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect."

John 14:21-24 says, "Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, it is he who LOVES me. And he who LOVES me will be LOVED by my Father, and I will LOVE him and manifest myself to him.” Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?” Jesus answered him, “If anyone LOVES me, he will keep my word, and my Father will LOVE him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. Whoever does not LOVE me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me."

John 15:9-17 says, "As the Father has LOVED me, so have I LOVED you. Abide in my LOVE. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my LOVE, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his LOVE. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment, that you LOVE one another as I have LOVED you. Greater LOVE has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. These things I command you, so that you will LOVE one another."

Luke 10:27 says, "LOVE the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind. And LOVE your neighbor as yourself."

- Hate the sin, but LOVE the sinner -
- LOVE your God, and LOVE your neighbour -

1 Corinthians 13:13 says, "And now these three remain: faith, hope and LOVE. But the greatest of these is LOVE."

The Peace Of God



To sum up how much God loves us:
I asked for a flower. God gave me a bouquet.
I asked for a minute, God gave me a day.
I asked for love, God gave me His Son.

Matthew 11:28-30 says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

God sees your heart, whatever situations and circumstances you are going through right now. He sees your hands raised, and how much weight you have on your heart. But hey, go to Him - For He will give you strength, comfort and hope to survive this world.

God loves you so much, that other than arranging the cosmic stars and putting galaxies in place - He would ride on heavens and reach down from his clouds of majesty just to listen to you. Every tear that you have shed, God has stored it and prepared a smile for every tear! You are like a pearl in God's hands: Rare, unique and wonderful! You can trust Him, for He will give you peace unlike the world gives.

Psalms 23:4 says, "I may walk through valleys as dark as death, but I won't be afraid. You are with me, and your shepherd's rod makes me feel safe."

John 14:27 says, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."

Philippians 4:7 says, "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

- When you cannot stand anymore, you can fall on Him -

Our God Is Greater, Stronger, And Healer!



This verse has been resonating in my heart for the entire week! And I have now come to understand just what it means to trust God entirely! That even though the facts and figures, situations and circumstances just aren't going well - When you have God you are still the majority! When all odds are against you, you are still the majority! You know why? Because God is on your side, and all you have to do is trust Him and rely on Him! All the way He leads us!

Proverbs 3:5-6 says, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

No matter what you're going through, God is still with you! He didn't promise to be with you for half of your journey in life, or for a portion of journey in your life. Instead, He promised to be with you until the end of your life! That means we have the assurance that God will be with us and give us the strength to get through this life with Him! So what more should we trust Him!? Remember, when the world is crushing you and everything is falling apart - God is carrying you saying, "Don't worry, I'm with you."

I went church today, and there in front of my eyes I see:
(a) So many people's physical body problems gets healed!
(b) So many people with asthma got healed!
(c) So many people with eczema got healed!
(d) Testimonies of so many people sharing about their cancer being healed when everything was against them!
(e) Women's pregnancies where the babies were supposed to be deformed in a certain way, possibilities of down syndrome, according to the facts given by the doctor - All these was healed and turned around completely!

And for the past month, I have seen hundreds and hundreds of people getting healed in front of my own eyes! People standing up from their wheelchairs after being unable to walk for years! I have seen almost thousand of people getting saved in front of my eyes! It is truly ground-shaking, faith-breaking and mountain-moving to witness it!

My God who has healed so many people, from their depression, anxieties, and emotions can do the same for you too! All you have to do is come to Him, and trust Him with all your heart. And if you don't know who He is, I would love to tell you all about Him! Our God is greater! Our God is stronger! God He is higher than other! Our God is Healer! Awesome in power - That's my God (:

- Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your on understanding -
- In all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight -
- JESUS IS THE WAY -
