Wisdom

I often think I am not smart enough and am often frustrated when I don't acheive as well as I expected.

Last week we learned about wisdom in our bible study group, and the Word of God enlightened me. I shall never be ashamed of who I am and what I have not acheived. Rather, I need to acknowledge that wisdom comes from God, and I need to learn that if I didn't perform well, that may mean I have not asked God for enough, I have not drawn closer enough to God and surrender my work to Him.

I always need to ask myself:
Have I asked God for concentration?
Have I asked God for time management?
Have I asked God for planning?
Have I asked God for direction?
Have I asked God for wisdom?

It is not about how good I am but it is about how good I am to rely on God!!

I prayed for God to bring me to whever He wants me to be

God answered my prayers today. I prayed a prayer the other week to ask God to bring me to wherever He wants me to and lead me to be a witness for Him. God works everything for His good, and His plan cannot fail. Yesterday my neighbour rang our doorbell to ask if I was interested in trying out an English teaching job at a junior high school. I was excited but later realised the school was too far I called up to express my unwillingness to go 1 hr before. The teacher convinced me and I went in the end. The interview went smoothly and without me doing anything, I got accepted! The process for getting to teach at a public school is far more than difficult. It is a long long journey and for me seemed an impossible path to pursue. I had thought about getting a job as a public teacher, but I had to give up. I don't know why God literally flew me through this process, but I know it is definitely His plan for me. He said He would provide and will always provide for me, so there is no n...

Face my failures

Facing my failures has been one of the most difficult tasks in my life so far. Again, God has brought light into this weakness and has given me a lesson to build up my courage to acknowledge my failure and not be ashamed of it. I am facing a really difficult task God has given right now, and that is to accept the fact that I failed. In Romans 8:28 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. Even in a difficult situation like this, God is in control and will work for the good for those who love Him. He will turn a bad situation into a good one and I need to trust with my whole heart that He loves me and His ways are perfect. Slowly I learn to accept my failure and still praise God for it, I know He has a purpose for it and it will not be in vain. Father God, may your will be done and not mine!

Prosperity in God

I am very much disturbed, namely, confused by the explanation in regards to prosperity. The world often says, men have infinite capabilities, as long as we work hard, set good goals, follow them step by step and not give up, we sure will prosper. In other words, we will obtain what we want. We can gain fame, become wealthy and enjoy more things life offers. People might create some mottos like, "Believe in yourself, never give up and success is yours". In reality, is that true? Do we actually reap more if we sow harder? Clearly, the world doesn't offer a satisfying answer in regards to living a real prosperous life. First question I would like to ask is, does being famous and wealthy mean prosperous? Secondly, what does prosperity mean? Now in some churches, they preach prosperity gospel, and I just feel some of the teaching has a tendency towards self help steps. Every time I hear it, I wonder if that is what God offers. Eg. "Have faith in God, yearn for more, then ...
