Meaningless Words

Sometimes when I do my QT, I ponder about the "important" things that I should have done for the day. And sometimes I realized I've done nothing to add to my treasure chest in Heaven.

One can tell God "I love You" everyday, but does nothing to show it, is nothing more than a hypocrite. He's probably worse of than someone who doesn't even believe God exists. Why? Because you know, but you don't do. The Bible says that is equivalent to sinning. And if THAT'S truly the case, I'm a dead man. I mean, that probably goes to show that I sin all the time.

Adding on to the severity of the problem, as a teacher of the Word, or the head of the Teaching Ministry in the church youth group, the burden and punishment is heavier. The Bible also says that those who teach have the responsibility to ensure that what continues on is pure and right, and most importantly, of the Bible. Now a teacher who speaks but does not do, what good is it? Doesn't that double the hypocritical accusation thrown at him/her?

From many perspectives, it seems like the sins are doubled on my side. And yes, I would agree with anyone who says it is so. Does it mean there is no hope? Who would want to teach unless he/she goes into full time ministry?

I think, it only goes to show that God's grace is doubled for those "on top" as it is doubled for those "below". But the lukewarm is spat out. Ouch. No one should be in the middle.

Happy Chinese New Year!

Here's wishing everyone a blessed Chinese New Year! Hope you get loads of angbaos! Spend the money wisely yar? And dun forget to tithe some back to God during offering this Sunday! =) God bless again!

A New Hope, A New Life

It's time to revive this blog again. A new phrase of life, a new increment of trust in God despite me not being clear where I'm going. It's a time to start things all over again, the idea of single-hood, loneliness, guided by faith and comforted by my Supernatural Creator.

RJ, thanks for being one of those people who'll still come to this old, dusty blog though I do not update it often. It is just sad that most of my thoughts are too misleading to be written down here; it is a blog dedicated to Jesus after all. It's almost like I've a split personality, not wanting to be found out. The monster in me still surfaces often, too often for me to even have the strength to record the temptations that I face. No one likes to hear a Christian soldier fail in the battles he faces. And I fail so often that I'm too shameful to face my Maker and my Lord who died so that I have a chance to even win a single battle.

But I must record my battles. For those who'll drop by this blog to read, to the other weary and war-torn soldiers who are on the point of giving up, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I intend to fight to the very last drop of blood, even if my demons are countless and seem immortal. Will you fight with me? Our demons may be different, but the fountain from which we draw strength is the same. Fight with me I say, and experience the countenance and power of a God who promises never to leave us or forsake us.

I have to pray for Shijie, Gina, Yaosheng, Cindy, Huiyun, and Xiao Wei. Their situations are different, but their solutions are the same. They need God. They need love. They want to feel beautiful, desired, and clean. Prepare for miracles to happen.
