obedience..... guidance.....

Long time didn't post my blog. I come back again. Last few days went back hometown. Bring along my friends have a visit there. Meaningful and wonderful trip yet is very tired and not comfortable. hahaha!! so funny. but it is true. Because hot day ma. Yet i do learn something from the trip. Human need to have enough rest and sleep and begin a new day with a challenging and meaningful day. But sometimes human tend to have a normal and relax time because of not enough rest and laziness.... Oops.... That's me. May GOD change me!
wonderful trip is at penang. We went to penang hill. Now begin the lesson I learn. I know the place called penang hill but dont know where is it. Funny rite? But nevermind. We have GPS. Luckily my friends bring along his GPS phone. Though it is useful but sometime it doesn't show a clear picture and the accurate direction. You know la. In the real word. But is quite accurate also la. That time i began to think that, sometimes GOD also wont show a clear picture to let us know. So we began to become blur and directionless. But GOD is all knowing and His promises is always Yes and Amen. That time i was thinking that how we going to achieve the target or goal if we do not know what will be happened next during the progress. Today, just found the answer from Ps Jason. Ooo.. Jason again. hahaha! not me la. The answer simply is just obeying GOD's word all the time. GOD said dont worry about tomorrow and just do watever things that need to be done by today. YES!! that's it. Just clear on what you need to do now. Start to look to Jesus and see GOD wants you to do now. If you are obedient, then you can achieve significant works for GOD and yourself too. GOD is good all the time. You wont get lost when you are obedience to Him. Just like GPS. It will show you one step to another step in order to reach the destination. But sometimes it wrong also. BUT GOD is always accurate and correct. Trust Him with all your heart. Obey what He will want you to do. You will no regret for the decision. GOD bless you.

In time of need

Really hard to go through our lives in hard circumstances. Even though u know it very well how to go on and u do it oftenly. But we will surely fail once or maybe twice or maybe more......
Tell u guys something very funny. In my working place which the M2U music centre, I got 2 students of mine called Jason. Jason Teoh is me. another two is Jason Chong and Jason Lim. And then I went out with my coursemate. I called Jason Lim.
Jason Teoh : Hello, Jason. I will reach in 15 minutes.
Jason Lim : Oo... ok.. Thanks a lot, Jason.
HAHAHA!! Funny rite? ok... Maybe I just "syiok sendiri". another case:
Jason Teoh : Hello, Jason. Where are you ar..??
Jason Chong : lol, Jason. We are waiting for you lo....
Hahahaha!! OK.. fine.
Now talk about that. You are not good enough lo. Cause I already told u a joke yet you must give some respond ma... hahaha! ok? yA... Thats better.
Recently busy with guiding some of my students in music centre. But yet meaningful because they learn something I gain something as well. As a result, I know more on working experience and some teaching skills in music as well. But I felt like far away from GOD. Relationship, Friendship, and also my studies. All affected by the work. But I believe GOD has His plan on me. Being busy for two weeks, I felt like I need more favors on GOD. As we need more from GOD, we need to spend more time with GOD. In offering, knowledge and experience as well. I fell sick during my busy day. At that moment, I kept praying to GOD that GOD strengthen me. Without realization, things just happened in smooth way. I earn some pocket money and I can survive in my serious sickness (fever, cough and flu --> dont worry!! It is not h1n1).
GOD's blessing is always sufficient and great. In time of need, He always beside me. Helping me to develop and improve myself. Broken friendship, relationship build up again after I pray to GOD. Friends seems like very understand me and never blame me for not joining them in every event. ( SO touch...!! thank you guys....!!)
Finally I just want to Let those who see my blog with the prayer below.

"GOD, Thank You for giving me those wonderful friends in my life. Thank You for giving the opportunity to gain some working experience. Thank You for Your blessing and helps when I am in time of need. Bless my fellow friends. All my friends. Because they not only friends of mine yet they give such a wonderful and meaingful life to me. In my prayer. GOD, I just know You always give the best to me. Thank GOD. I love You GOD. Finally, Love all of you (my friends). IN the name of Jesus I pray, Amen."

It's in GOD's Word

It is a long period of time that I stop writing my blog. Feels like going to give up on writing it. Frustrated and doubt always exist in my heart. Contradiction always exist in the mind set. Stress in study, projects and assignments and also relationship. Oh GOD! Wonderful experience from You again when in this undesirable situation. This is not the first time facing this condition. As optimistic as I am, I also have such a worrisome, undecidable, loneliness in my heart. Those feels makes me to have depression in my life. Despite knowing the existence of depression, I don't despair because I know that hope is available in Jesus, that guidance come through the Spirit, and that knowledge and power are found in GOD's Word. In other word to understand that is in the Bible. Reading the word of GOD will have answer for my life. When our soul full of sorrow, we can be strengthened by His Word. Psalm 119:25-28 says that,
My soul clings to the dust;
Revive me according to Your Word.
I have declared my ways, and You answered me;
Teach me Your statutes.
Make me understand the way of Your precepts;
So shall I meditate on YOur wonderful works.
My soul melts from heaviness;
Strengthen me according to Your Word.
What a encouragement that the knowledge of the word of GOD teach us to understand the purpose of our life. Sometimes we get lost. Things that we see always in a blur situation. But with God's Word, everything will have the answer for all. We can follow the truth og His Word and be set free. Jesus said:" I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6) He is the way where we can find the guidance and help from Him. He is the truth where we can trust in Him and find hope in our life. He is the life where the purpose of our life should be fullilled. And Jesus is the way or I can say He is the path where we can go and stay with Father GOD in heaven. Well, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It is a hard Biblical knowledge to explain and understand. I am not able to write here. You want to know? haha! Just experience them. You can pray to Jesus. Ask Him to let you understand the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Take care. :)

What would it be "if I...." (surrender)

"If I..." What a mystery word and description. Friends, tell you something that most of the Malaysian forgot. When things are impossible to happen, let say "if I", or "if he" or what so ever, the next word we going to read is "were". Just like Beyonce's song --> If I were a boy. So, Do you ever think of what would it be if you have done something? Hmm... Honestly, I think that. that's why I write here la. haha! So, It is good because GOD andswered my prayer for the past few days. Then I thank GOD in every circumstances. Sms-ing to the friends that I want to share. However, things were not smoothly the next day. Had been being a fool by other friends, having my FYP to busy with, quarreling with people... bla bla bla. Oh! GOD. Its a tough situation for me. Comes in one shot. Since then I started to have bad temper. Easily get angry, tired, and moody. What can I do? control myself lo. But it is really hard.
Today is father's day, Heard about the sermon on turn ur heart to our Father and father should also turn the heart to the children. Human's relationship is quite a complicated issue. sometimes you will feel very easy to take control but sometimes you even dont know what to do next. But then, after realize that what we have done whether it is right or wrong, we start to think what if I... haha! If you never think that then is fine. But I do think. To build a good relationship with friends is not as simple as clapping our hand. If it were like that, that will be awesome. But it doesn't. To look for a true friend or true relationship, we need to spend time to understand each other. Then, we start to accept who they are and who we are as well. So, when you have established a friendship or relationship, Someone is now very impotant to you. It will be hurt when someone hurt you. It takes time to recover. So, It happened to me. In the forward way and yet it happened backwardly. Means friends hurt me yet I also hurt friends. So, you know la. communication with conflict always happen. What can I do? So, The mystery word comes. What would it be if I... Sounds very stupid. Is not a good Idea in thinking that way when things already happened. But I still think. Human ma... haha! Moreover, we see that misunderstanding happen if we start to quiet ourselves by guessing people's thought. It happens to me. Thinking that what would it be if I also quiet myself without doing anything? Have a time to calm down and think deeply? Is it good? No answer...
Having said that, friendship and relationship are hard to establish. But GOD's way is different. Many times we fail to do our part between GOD and us, But GOD still our best friend. He never leave us. Not only GOD with us. Just as today sermon, though father and children are having a generation gap, But in Christ, There is love of GOD to break this generation gap. So, It simply means in Christ, friendship and relationship can also be established effectively and last forever. By GOD's grace, I had been chosen to be children of GOD. So, I found the comfort while facing problems. No more "what would it be if I..." But "Surrender" to GOD. Ask GOD for favour and wisdom to handle the tough situation. Just a simple request, GOD surely will answer and guide us. Thank GOD cause I have a great GOD in my life. haha!
Oops..! I'm here again. WIsh every father on earth "HAPPY FATHER"S DAY". Continue to be a great father for children. GOD bless you. :)

Cherish... (Holy Spirit)

Many times we go through our lives with confusion. We don't really look at what we have been through all the time. Yet sometimes, The Holy Spirit (who is GOD) will speak to us with a gentle voice. He instruct us to improve ourselves in GOD's point of view which can be say as GOD's will. Yet It is impossible for us to improve ourselves effectively. It is to be said that when we improve ourselves with some area of weaknesses, we will find that another weaknesses is coming up next. Then while at the same time we improve the other area of weaknesses, we will repeat the same manner of weaknesses that we improve previously. In other words, It is hard to change to be perfect person by ourselves. One thing I have learned in my life from the moment I believe in Jesus, That is never ever stop improving ourselves with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes, I never really give time to the Holy Spirit for Him to instuct me. On 16th of June with a Discipleship Programme that in World Harvest Church (WHC) which is the church I'm attending currently, a bible scripture tells us that ...
"And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption."
(Ephesians 4:30 NKJV)
Now, let me go into my real life experience. Come to the real life, I know many things is possible to happen anywhere, anytime or any how. Having said that, It really happened. I have been many times arguing with friends. Sometimes, I have a very strong self-defensive characteristic. Yet, I also have my own perspective person. Therefore, It causes some misunderstand and the undesirable feelings towards my friends. But it happen only sometimes. What is that I say "only sometimes" means that when the time I didn't consult the Holy Spirit. So, It cause a lot of conflicts and misunderstanding between two person. Really need a sensitive of sense to listen to the Holy Spirit while there are conflict, anger or argument. Sometimes, the Holy Spirit just said to me that i should do this and that, yet I can't listen clearly. This is what I feel frustrated of. But,
I thank GOD for my life for having wonderful friends. They didn't look at my weaknesses but my strength. As a malaysian, we always say that "friends never 'kira' too much". It just simply means friends is always caring, loving and helpful. So, GOD have clearly set the truew friendship in my life. This is what I want to cherish for the rest of my life. I want to say to my friends. Without you, my life will be very boring and adventureless.
All the time I mention that I'm grateful and thankful to my friends. But another friend of mine who is always beside me and holding my hand yet sometimes I treat Him very bad. By the way, He is the one who always influence me improve me. Yea...! He is GOD, the Holy Spirit.
Now, I just want to say to whoever read my blog. Think about those person who mean a lot to you. Cherish them. But the most that you will need to cherish is the Holy Spirit. He is the one who gives you everything. He gives you the life, experience, knowlegde and always beside you when you need helps.
"Father GOD, in my heart I thank GOD for giving me such a wonderful friends that You have prepared for me. They are amazing, special, and meaningful to me. Lord, I pray that Your blessing with flow among them as I want to bless them as well. Your Holy Spirit touch their heart as well so that they will know You the best friend they will ever have in their life. GOD, I give thanks to You for every journey I had gone through. Because You lead me all the way when I was facing difficulties. Thank You. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen."

It is the time... (GOD is good, all the time)

Long time didn't visit and write my blog. I've been busy all the way. Now I know it is not easy to become a final year student in University. Good advise for those who still in the mid-moment in University life, you will need to pay attention and learn as much as you can. It is good if you try it your own for new things. Now talk about me. FYP?? What's that? Final Year Project. Last time always heard from my friends: "Oh no. no time for preparation la." "Sorry, I need to do my research for FYP." "Haizz..!! Don't know how to do my thesis." "WHAT's the FYP's title about?" I thought is only they are expecting for higher result and just feel stress on it. But now I know. It is a very difficult project to be accomplished. Somemore i know nothing on the FYP's title I chose. What to do? just do it lo (Nike brand :).
Funny lecturer for the first day of my class. New semester started. It is the time to be serious. "I dont want my students to be a spoon feeding student. I want a serious learner. bla bla bla... I emphasize that I want a serious learner." "What's the time now?" "Are you guys with me?" Those words will always been listened everytime in her class. Yet she is a good lecturer. But she is not a good helper. Haha!! Anyway, need to follow her style for this semester. No choise. :(
Time pass and I get my another timetable for my part time job. Monday is a busy day. 3 classes continuously. Huuu.... Tired. Anyway, GOD's grace is sufficient for me. He will strengthen me. Now I know it is the time. For He says to me. "Dont just read it. You need to live it." FYP, lecturer that want me to feed myself with the knowledge, Tired part time job... These 3 things showing me that it is a challenging semester. So, I can't just be passive anymore. It is the time to move on and take a step in front.
Today, It is a wonderful day again. All started with prayer before went out from home. Everything was lead by GOD. Finish all the registration that would need to be done. After that started the first day of my part time job. First class was fine to me. But, the second class required me to teach in English. Oh, man! I was so nervous and helpless. FYI, I am poor in English speaking. Again! What to do? Pray lo. Pray and pray and pray. So, I just spoke confidently. As a result, It's amazing. I felt myself like a lecturer. lecturing the students. Thank GOD. haha! At night. Studied some reference books on my FYP. Suddenly felt that it is interesting and want to try it out by my own. Like the feeling of "YA! I've found it!" It is good. Now friends, want to share with you a great song that I like it so much. I've been singing this song on friend's wedding for twice. Yet It still a great song in my heart. Enjoy!!

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. God is good (all the time...
(Psalms 23:4)

Believe... (Faith)

"If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."
Mark 9:23
My childhood is not a memorable and wonderful moment in my life. Yet, i feel that I have one person who loves me all the time. He teach me to understand to forget and forgive about the past and moving forward to the future. I did it and I want to continue to forget and forgive. But, who knows. Life is not just stop at what we already achieve. Learning is always lead us for improvement. GOD spoke me. He said that Do not fear and I will hold your hand to wherever you go and whatever you do. Now, I know what I m going to learn. Take a step of Faith. Last few days, many things happened that cause a huge influence to me. I feel sad and disappointed. Thank GOD I know Him. I know Jesus in my life. He gives me the authority to pray. I can tell Him whatever things I face. Hmm... now I know i need to learn to have Faith. But am I really know what is Faith? The answer is no. I am not really understand what is Faith though I have been a christian for so many years.
Let us look for Genesis 12. When GOD spoke to Abram, he obeyed at once, departing for an unknown land based only on a promise. Childless, he trusted GOD to make of him "a great nation". Sometimes, my faith is just like Abram. I only trust GOD for what He has promise me. Sometimes, I tend to approach my decision with calculation and restraint. But GOD never stop to remind me about Faith. Faith often appears where least expected and falters where it ought to thrive. Thank GOD that He gives me the authority to pray. I read an article in Daily Bread where One woman in her 90s explained, "We can pray. We got the time, and we got the faith. Some of us don't sleep much anyway. We can pray all night if needs be." And so they did. GOD let me understand to take a step of Faith is to pray. Spending your time with GOD and pray. All I need to do is pray, pray, and pray. In the last part of the article, It states that "Prayer is the voice of Faith". Thank GOD. I found the answer. Here is something special to read:
Faith looks across the storm - it does not doubt
Or stop to look at clouds and things without.
Faith does not question why when all His ways
Are hard to understand, but trusts and prays.
Friends, I have experience what GOD had showed me about Faith. Now your turn.
"Lord, I pray that my friends will find You one day in their life. I pray that they will experience You more and more in prayer. Lord, Thank You for such wonderful gift and authority You give to us. We want to pray to You. We want to spend time with You. Strengthen us Lord when we believe and trust in the Lord. In the name of Jesus. Amen".














He will Hold your hand just like A Father do.
