iiiinDecisivenesssss INTERVENED

I had wanted to bring my parents to this "teo chew" evangelistic dinner. I went through the process of asking them and they agreed but i procrastinated due to my indecisiveness when it came to buying the ticket. the day before yesterday i was at a bakery shop and i saw this nice frame with this quote

"If you can't feed a hundred, feed one at a time"

this quote stuck with me until I got home, so i journalled down the fact that this quote got stuck in me, as I was writing, I felt God was telling me, don't focus on the impossible (feed 100), focus on the possible (feed 1). when I focused on the impossible, nothing will ever happen but if I focused on the 1, the 1 will lead to 2 and so on and so forth, the 100th will be reached. I asked myself what i thought was impossible, and the answer came, it was my PARENTS" SALVATION. So I left it at there, meanwhile, I HAD NOT bought any tickets and the dinner is this weekend. Pastor Tony had someone giving him a table to fill up. Yesterday he asked me to bring my parents there, it was like God intervening my indecisiveness. 2 reasons why I was so wishy washy.

#1 I didn't want to be disappointed if my parents did not accept Christ,
#2 this weekend is the worship seminar, it would be hectic and tiring for me so I didn't want to be inconvenienced.

But yesterday after I took up the offer, called my parents to confirm the dinner, I felt the quotewhich I saw the day before at the bakery was God's message for me. Now I truly understand the message, FOcus on the possible. The possible is, NOthing is impossible with God. If I look to him, have faith and pray, God will make it happen. Start with what is Possible, start with God, start with prayer and start with faith. The fact that they are going is the positive first step, may God sow and shower upon my parents.

truth hurts but it heals too

2 nights ago, I asked a very close friend of mine if I am an insistent person. Haha.. without any second thoughts, she said yes. Wow, that drove a long nail right through my heart. If you ask, you'll get the answers. Of course, initially I would think to myself, I do not think I am an insistent person all the time but I only insist when I am sure about certain things close to my heart i.e. when I have been seeking God about it or it is IN my system due to long periods of conditioning e.g. spiritually or just my personal value system. That analysis certainly made me felt better but it also got me reflecting (truth heals). As I thought through, certainty about something for me will activate a wish/desire to see it happen immediately and NOW. If it is God's will, it is NOW. As I look back on buying our first flat, it was the same. When I first view the unit (my current place), I was quite sure that the house was IT. But my then fiance and husband now do not think so and asked me ...

Stand Still and Let God Move

Stand Still - By The Isaacs The Father has a plan. Though it's hard to see it now You feel you're walking all alone. But He is there no doubt When the storm around you rages, And you're tossed to and fro When you're faced with life's decisions, Not sure which way to go Stand still and let God move, Standing still is hard to do When you feel you have reached the end, He'll make a way for you Stand still and let God move When the enemy surrounds you, And the walls are closing in When the tide is swiftly rising, And you wonder where He's been Friend, there never was a moment, That His arms weren't reaching out You can rest assured and be secure, God is moving right now Stand still and let God move, Standing still is hard to do When you feel you have reached the end, He'll make a way for you Stand still and let God move Go to youtube.com search for Stand Still + Isaacs. Very beautiful song with meaningful lyrics.

Judge Not

"Do not judge lest you be judged. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you. And why do you look at the speck that is in your brother's eyes, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eyes." - Matthew 7:1-5 (NASB) Otto Fong, used this principle to counter those who decided to 'judge' him because he openly shared that he is a gay. I admire his "courage" and "determination" to be who he is - he only asked for acceptance. His disclosure risked him losing his job as a teacher in the prestigious Raffles Institution whom he had been with for 8 years and also unwanted multiples of criticisms darted towards his sexual preference.
