God's goodness and warth

Since the 20th of December onwards, I saw the goodness of God and the reality of God in my life. Don't get me wrong. It's not that I realized it now but it can to pass as in answering one of the prayers which I had been praying for months...

A week has passed and here I am, still thinking about what had happened these pass few days. There are up and downs in lives and there are sure more ups compared to downs... That's how you see things.

Alright, let me see... First and foremost, I've FOUND A JOB!!! Glory to God! Besides being offered this job, I have also been offered another job. Remember the job which I talked about? The one dealing with kids? It was on the 23rd that I got a call from Penny, the half-boss of "my gym". Can't wait to start the job... Was supposed to help out on monday 27th Dec but... Something happened... Not for the bad... Anyway, yes, I did accept the offer, offered to me...

Next comes the offer from my grandfather's side. To help out my uncle in the factory. Over here, I was initally rather reluctant to go and help; namely, because it was rather far and I do not want to "pull strings" to be there. However, God opened my eyes. He had more than what I could ever think or imagine of. There are GREAT OPPORTUNITIES over here in my grandfather's side and I can see images of the company being listed up in Harvest Times magazine.

Over at my grndfather's side, I am able to use ALL the skills which I have learnt and put it into use. Now I know why Pastor Sy Rogers and why the bible says that all things works together for those who loves Him and that He will not let everything which we went through or are going through to waste.

If you think that God is bad, think again... If God knows that this thing does not benefit you or is not good for you now or that this is not the time yet, then it's for your good. God is not a man that He should lie. He is a GOOD GOD and that everything He has for us, is the BEST if not the most EXCELLENT in stored for us. So, why reject or even renounce Him? God is not a kill joy. When our parents are even able to give us what we want in life, (of course, not everything we want, they could or will give) how much more, our Father in heaven, who is God? How much more the CREATOR of heavens and earth? The One, who MADE us and GAVE us life? If that's not enough, what about God giving His ONLY beloved Son, who LEFT His comfortzone to come into the world, just like each and everyone of us, but as God, to DIE FOR US? If He is even willing to come and die for us, how much more will He withold from us?

Of course, God is God and He will never, I say once again.. He will NEVER die. Even if He does, He have the POWER to have it back. :) Awesome, right? Who else is able to do that?

I do not know what you've went through or is going through, but I really want to encourage you to fight a good fight of faith. Keep on keeping on and be persistant. If the violence could take it by force, if the "evil/ unrighteous" one can have what they have by being persistant, how much more if we persist on with God, our Father?

Friends, how great a salvation God has given to us. Without us, He is still God but without God, we will live a life without purpose, meaningless. Endlessly pursuing money, material things and things that WILL perish. Today, if you see this message and hear His voice, do not resist Him. Come back to Him. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son. Those who CALL upon the name of the Lord, WILL BE SAVED. Heaven and earth will pass away but His words will NEVER pass away. He is such a good God, why reject? Do you want to go through life, always pursuing endlessly and without purpose, for money? So what if you can gain the entire world but lose your soul and purpose in God?

Will you want to return your heart to Jesus? To give your life to God?

Anyway, share a little more about my life to you over here...

I started my education with townsville primary school in 1983, a second batch of primary school student, but I did not do well in my primary school, namely cos I dislike my teacher and to spite them, I did not do well purposefully. Stupid right? That's normal. Because most of the students does that...

After primary school days, I went to Serangoon Secondary school for my secondary school education. I did rather well in my first two years in Secondary school but did not do that well after hearing other's say that I have to work doubly hard if I want to go to the express stream. Then I slack and did not do as well as I did in the past...

Then I heard friends saying that life in junnior college is tough and that I'll have many nights and days, burying myself with books. Even if I graduate, but did not have good grades... I'll still be an A level student... Next comes those who talks about life in polytechnic... They say that life in polytechnic is very stressful... people there are very selfish and will not teach you what they know but will teach only 1% of what they know... to those who needed help... Then there are those who says that life in ITE is very good. Everyone co-operate with one another and that they work together as a team more than the two above mentioned. Then I made a choice which.. I believe is the best for my life... To get into... ITE instead of the above two.

Anyway, during my time in ITE, I was taking part time interior designing while taking mechanical and electrical drafting design. After that, I took up Mechantronics with Temasek polytechnic but did not do well in my studies as I was overconfident. After that, I went to bible school...

I once was lost and now, at least I know... I know where I am heading and if you realized, it's how God prepared my paths... He used it all to build the life which I am leading.

My entire family is not saved yet... The place where I work in, housed lots of idols... :( However, I believe that I'm not there by chance... I'm not in Bible school for nothing... I am believing for y ENTIRE HOUSEHOLD TO BE SAVED, IN JESUS' NAME!

Wrath of God
I guess I am lagging too much in time... LOL... This is because it's only on the 27th that I heard of the earthquake and the tidal waves hitting Asia... Namely, Phuket, Sri Langka, Thailand etc... I thank God that there wasn't continual rain...

While hearing this news, I was asking God why these happened. Then I felt within my Spirit man that God reminding me what happened during the 911 event a couple of years ago... And how the people of USA began turning their hearts to God and how it's related to the book of revelation...

In the last days, there will be wars, rumours of wars... Earthquake and natural disasters etc... Sigh... but I really thank God... Cause there wasn't continual rain for the last couple of days... Ark of Noah came to my mind... The people were busy with their lives, playing, marrying, merrying, drinking, living immoral lives totally ignoring God. Then it rained for 40days and nights... The entire earth's living creature died, except Noah and those which he preserved...

Indeed God did promised that there will no longer be any flood with the likes of the major flood but He did say that there will be natural disasters falling upon us... As times goes, it'll be more and more counts of these happening...

I cannot play with life anymore. I need to be serious with life. Not waste it as when I want... Friends, do treasure the things that you have in life. Do not throw away what God has given to you nor ignore His voice... Come back to God!!!
