Something simple to share

Just something very short and simple to share… last night I was just spending time listening to music and reading my book after my nephew went home. Like what I have shared before, my recent interest is listening to music… so I have quite a collection of different genres of music. I put all the songs in one playlist and simply played them randomly. But guess what, despite the fact that I have more non-Christian songs than Christian songs in my laptop, the songs that were being played ‘randomly’ were mostly Christian ones. I believe that is a reminder from God, of where my priority and heart should be.

I have been listening to these songs recently, and I really love it, just would like to share with you all. Maybe we can sing them during glorify!





Have a great week ahead! =)

Waiting Expectantly

Thanks Gigi for the post.
Actually God also spoke to me about waiting expectantly a few days ago. Was reading psalms when a couple of the terms struck me.

5Why are you cast down, O my inner self? And why should you moan over me and be disquieted within me? Hope in God and wait expectantly for Him, for I shall yet praise Him, Who is the help of my [sad] countenance, and my God.
Psalm 43

It does remind me that there is a time fore everything, and we need to make our wait good, because what we want might not come now... but only in the future. The dreams that God has given us may not be fulfilled now, but they will in the future. So I wait expectantly for it in the meantime instead of over-fretting or feeling like the present has no meaning.

Anyway just to continue my testimony, I remember that I shared that I've learnt alot from my job even though I feel frustrated at times. And really you know, I'm now better at getting things down and settling personal admin =) Thank God for the time that he has given me at CDC la =) And the time is coming to come out. Haha.

Purposeful Waiting

Shi Pei mentioned in her post of knowing someone who's fearful of not getting married. Is very real as I happened to meet someone today.

All of us will go through similar process in our life. After getting our education, we'll work and pursue a career. Along the way, we will search, pray for a life partner. Settle down and have a family...etc. What if finding the right life partner is being delayed or it never comes?? One will end up being very frustrated, disappointed and probably fill with bitterness.

'For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,' declares the LORD. 'As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.' Isaiah 55:8-9

Can we trust that GOD has a better plan for us? Are we able to submit all our plans to HIM? To accept any outcome even if it is not according to our desire?

Instead of complaining and fill with disappointment during the time of waiting, I reckon one should let GOD do the preparation work! GOD will not give his son or his daughter to someone who's not ready to take care of him or her. Nor will GOD want us to receive someone who is not ready for us. GOD loves us and He does not want HIS children to get hurt to the extend we can't accept. Hence sometimes, we have to wait.

During the time of waiting, it has to be purposeful. It should be a time of preparation. How?? Do the works of GOD! Serve in ministry, commit to pray, SP someone, tithing. All these, are part of preparation. If one can't serve in GOD's house, how sure can he/she serve in the family? If one can't commit to pray. What will happen to the family if it is not covered in prayers? SP someone is just like parenting.... Tithing is liked providing for the family. When all these become a lifestyle, it will just flow and blend in easily as you take up the role of a husband or wife, father or mother. So, let GOD do the preparation work in us!!
