Matthew 6

Matthew 6: 25-30
"Look at the birds. They don't need to plant or harvest or put food in barns because your heavenly Father feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than they are."

"And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and gone tomorrow, won't he more surely care for you? You have so little faith!"

"So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's trouble is enough for today."

How sweet the Lord is as a beautiful small sparrow flew into my house's balcony as i was praying about certain matters sitting at my balcony..Spending time with the Lord with the sparrow chirping is as if the Lord is reminding me the verses He wrote in Matthew 6. The Lord is the ever sweet father and our great God who cares for us more than sparrows of the earth.


When the going gets tough, the tough gets the going..My Lord, you are the source of strength. There is nothing too hard for you. =)

Thanking God for wonderful break =) , my one and only precious family, beautiful time with friends, lovely time with youths, exciting times with malcolm, preparation for another stage in life for my awesome God.

Truely, so much mixed feelings within me these days..
i know i am going to miss my mum soooooooooooooooo much when i get married...not as if am not going to see her again, but its just so different after being married and not staying with my dear mum....still remember the times i sat on her lap when i was young and do every single thing with her as she brought all of us up alone, my mum saving the last bit of food just for us, just so sacrificial is her. And Yes, no one can replace my mum, and i truely love u from the bottom of my heart. Mummy, I wished you know my God, and i've been praying for you all these years..Waiting and hoping the day will draw near...hope it come soon.

i wished you accept my Lord, Mummy, i wished..so so much.
I am so grateful to have you as my Mum. You meant just so much to me.

Dear God,
Help me to trust in your unfailing word and love.

"With men it is impossible, but with God, all things are possible."

Thoughts..

"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of fire.
Secrets of education is in respecting the students. It takes a village to raise a child."

May God help us.
People need the Lord.
Help me see people through your heart & eyes, Lord.

Grateful heart

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

What a beautful verse. You are so good.
Who am I do even do the simpliest thing? Who am I to even exist? The more i know you, the more i feel i don't deserve your love...Yet you said, "I can do all things through Christ who stengthens me." Thank you Lord, you are such a wonderful God.

Father, Because of your love, I exist.. I have life because of your grace, indeed, you are awesome.Having five senses is just another expression of your great love..to see, to smell, to taste, to hear, to touch. Body, mind, soul. One can't live without another, the hole in our heart filled by God's Spirit is the final touch to complete a person.. thank you God for everything. .
You are the reason for my being. .everyone needs this final touch to complete his/her life.. come to Jesus..He can be your best friend..

Camps. Friends coming together to make it happen.
Thanking everyone for your sweet labours..Youths, you are a blessing & encouragment! =)
Amazing God who worked in both camps. Such a joy to be a part of your work..Life is all about you. Your grace is sufficient. Indeed, God is always in control and on the throne, He desires to make Himself known throughout the world. Not in vain, not at all, God works, all the time. Lift up your eyes, praise Him for everything. You are so awesome my father.

Process versus product? It just dawned on me with this thought that process of getting to the final destination is much much more important than the completion of any product. Processes of doing things, responses, so many other areas which make up the products just reflects the nature of self and the refining stages our father desires us to have. .climbing mountains and reaching the mountain top, memories in climbing the mountain beats the few seconds of beholding the glory at the top of the peak. What a thought the Lord places in my mind. .=) The process is so so important as part of the growing stage.. We need to grow daily. .no matter how old.. growth is irregardless of age and time. .growth in Him in process is a beautiful thing as a seed progresses into a plant with flowers and fruits. "Be not weary in well-doing, for in due season you shall reap if you faint not." =)

God is awesome. All the time.

Thank God for you who serves, who loves, who prays.

I love you all! Thanks for everything.. =)
HUGGSSS.

Books =)

Read alot of books these days =) ...currently on Numbers in His word.
Need your understanding to read, Lord.

Read "God as He longs for us to see" by Chip Ingram, "The passion" by Greg Laurie, "The attributes of God" by AW Tozer, currently on "Brokenness" by Nancy de Moss, really thank God for all these books and the many things He taught me, and shown me...Just finished reading "Somebody's else Kids" by Torey Hayden yesterday.

Hayden's book "Somebody else's kids"
Enjoyed reading Torey Hayden's book, going to get "beautiful child" when i am well .. =)
Really inspired by her devotion and passion in her simplicity to make things work no matter how hard it may seems,seeing hope in each and every child no matter how difficult it is.. and her being a tremendous impact at the end of it all... The journey into her world of passion in impacting under-privilege kids,special needs kids and mainly those in broken families being abused simply blows my mind off...What a wonderful blessing she is. Truely thank God for her..

Her style of writing is beautiful as well, intelligent, poetic and always bringing readers into the world of hers with deep intensity...Humourous, heart lifting moments never fail to bring a smile to readers..
A must read for all teachers and kids lovers..
Inspiring, heart warming, encouraging, yet brings readers back to the reality of life many times, one of those who truely earn respect...*claps. and claps.*

Reading through this book brings me back to God once again, thinking how great God is to place different people at different places, time, just for a purpose. How awesome He is to instill love in certain individuals just to fulfill the purposes at that right time.
Uttered prayers for this dear author Hayden many times as i read her book,praying someone will bring her the gospel which everyone of us need...
Yes Lord, we need you. I need you God.

"God's love is his holy disposition toward all that he has created that compels him to express unconditional affection and selective correction to provide the highest quality of experience,both now and forever,for the object of His love."
-Chip Ingram

Indeed, God is love, always showing affection to us as we are the object of His love. How many times we fail to see His hand of love and affection to us and forget to thank Him for His goodness. It dawned on me once again the goodness of God to place Torey Hayden in the lives of many young ones to be an impact to them, simply rescuing them in the utter darkness of their lives at that certain point of time...

"Love never fails."

Jesus Christ, the only hope....The source of Love from God.
YES, really thrilled as i read one of her kids she impacted accepted Jesus as her Saviour during her adulthood!! Hayden taught this girl named Lori and showed care and concern when no one seems to care....Lori is an adult now...
And she is proclaiming Christ and serving Him with a family of her own at this point of time! =)
Thank you for your goodness, Lord.

Hayden currently lives and writes in North Wales...
Dear God, please bless and keep her.

"For God so love the world that He gave His only begotten son,that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."-John3:16

Thank you God.
