The Lord says be content!

I think I am not a very good example of living a content life, but thank God that He reminds me. Although I am one of the luckiest person, a lot of times I still am not content with what I have. I always desire for more or wished something was better. If things did not go as well as I hoped, I grumbled and complained and was constantly drown in the pool of negative emotions and self-condemnation.

Be content, my dear. It's only money. Be content, it's only a room. Be content, it's only a florenscent light. Yes, florenscent light. Why am I mentioning this? The florescent light in my kitchen since long ago needed to be changed, however I had either been busy or didn't have the will to get out of the house to get one. Today, I finally got the motivation to go out as it really has become an annoyance not to have light at nights. I am not sure why, but I went around 7 shops and supermarkets, there was not a single shop that sold the florescent light I wanted. Frustrated and annoyed, I came back home, took a shower to refresh myself for work. Because I was not content with the things happened today, it affected my job performance and I was quite sorry for my student, I knew she was bored and tired because I was not doing my best.

Small things like this can affect us greatly whether or not we are aware. I just found a blind Christian singer/songwriter while browsing the videos on Youtube, he caught my attention becuase he wore a pair of sunglasses in the performance and played the piano amazingly. I watched his video and listened to his song, again, God reminded me that I should be content. Gordon Mote was content, what is the reason for me not to be content?

God is good, very very good!

This time I have again experienced God's love and promises for me. It has shown me clearly that God is faithful and He does things in His own timing. And Judy, TRUST that I AM~ Last week had been a hectic week as many unexpected events happened. As people know, I am planning to go to Japan, and have been renting a house. Hence, before going, I need to sell all the furniture I own and clear the house by 5 th August. A month ago, I started plannig and had organised a storage place to put away everything and was pleased. Unexpectantly, a week ago, I was notified that I was not able to put away any of the furniture in the planned storage place. With no other choice, I quickily tried to find someone to sell to, a person expressed great interest and promised to buy everything from me, however, at the end the person did not end up buying anything. As a result, all these series of events happened had given me incredible stress and burden. In fact, I became extremely worried as having to se...

Nothing is reliable except God

A lot of things happened in my life recently have made me realised truly how unreliable everything can be on earth . People whom you have trusted turned their backs from you, disappointed you, betrayed you, and have abused your kindness. You wholeheartedly believe that people will keep their promises like you do, however, a lot of times it turns out not so. People are sinners and are of the world, they don't do God's way, instead, they follow the world. They disappoint! They break the promises they made! At the end, they even leave the consequences to you and pretend they have done nothing wrong. My conclusion is: Nothing is reliable!!!! Everything on earth can makeyou feel frustrated!!! The good thing is that OUR GOD is reliable, the only person we can trust and rely on. When people turn their backs from you, God doesn't. God loves us and never disappoints us, His faithful love endures forever. His promises lasts forever and He loves us so much that He longs to give us His...
