L O G

Few days ago, me and parents visited to a shop named LOG after we had our dinner. The newspaper actually promoted this shop and it eventually caught my mum's attention. All the furniture and deco thgy inside the shop are made by wood. Dad and mum was soooooo enjoyed looking at the products that were made by skillful, creative and aged workman. Those wood had kept me bored for TWO HOURS!!! Finally my parents decided to buy some. Here are the two lamps made by wood.

The Salvation Army Band


The Salvation Army band from Perth, Australia was in Penang last week. They had performance and fund raising day. They were initially visit to KL only but the P-I-C from PG was managed to get them, so they were HERE! We went to their performance sessions which held in New World Park and Gurney Plaza. Wow...it was so so so so nice. We enjoyed very much. They played a few Christian songs, eg. Heart of Worship, He is Lord, Amazing Grace, etc. I did record it down by using video camera. I wished I can share it. Unfortunately, it failed when I tried to upload to Godtube and Youtube. So..here's the photos. =p








Did you tithe?

One day, a young man walked into Pastor's office with sour face.

"Pastor, why I'm so poor?" asked the young man.

"Did you tithe?" said the Pastor.

"No. I have my wife and three children to take care of. My salary now is only RM600, it's not enough to support my family. How can I tithe?" the young man answered.

"That is why... because you didn't tithe. Let's see what God says about tithing," said Pastor, "Malachi 3:8-10

8 “ Will a man rob God?
Yet you have robbed Me!
But you say,

‘ In what way have we robbed You?’
In tithes and offerings.
9 You are cursed with a curse,
For you have robbed Me,
Even this whole nation.
10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,
That there may be food in My house,
And try Me now in this,”
Says the LORD of hosts,

“ If I will not open for you the windows of heaven
And pour out for you such blessing
That there will not be room enough to receive it.

When you don't tithe, it's as if your pocket has a hole. The money will be gone no matter how hard you're trying to keep it. Let me make this clear, you're asked to tithe is not because God needs your money but you have to do your part."

"Hmmm...okay, I'll try," said the young man.

Six months later...

The young man came back to Pastor.

"Pastor, thanks for teaching me the lesson of tithing. I tithe faithfully and now God blessed me with a job which the salary is triple what I had," joyfully the young man shared with Pastor.






So...did you tithe?

祂 救 我 脱 离 凶 恶


昨天早上圣灵带领我以主祷文祷告。

我 们 在 天 上 的 父 :
愿 人 都 尊 你 的 名 为 圣 。
愿 你 的 国 降 临 ;
愿 你 的 旨 意 行 在 地 上 , 如 同 行 在 天 上 。
我 们 日 用 的 饮 食 , 今 日 赐 给 我 们 。
免 我 们 的 债 , 如 同 我 们 免 了 人 的 债 。
不 叫 我 们 遇 见 试 探 ; 救 我 们 脱 离 凶 恶 。
因 为 国 度 、 权 柄 、 荣 耀 , 全 是 你 的 , 直 到 永 远 。
阿 们

虽然好奇为何圣灵如此带领,但没多想就出门上班去了。
走出家门,往车子的方向走去(住家范围外)
经过gate
保安人员以超热情又宏亮的声音对我说早安。
他的热情热得让我感到不自在且似乎带有一点色色。
突然,他喊我,要我载他一程。
我愣了一下,不多加理会,加快脚步走到我的车那里。
意想不到,他追了上来问我是否可以载他一程
到外面的路口。
(跟你很熟咩
??!!!三唔识七。。
(不是很有礼貌地问哦。。好像他开了口,人家就要载他哦。是用喊的方式哦。。嗯。。也许对于他不是喊而是声音较大而已吧。。)
那时我已经上车了,他来势汹汹地要开另一边的门。
感谢神!!!我的车锁已经改过。除了驾驶员的门外,其他的门都需要按一个钮才能开。
他一直尝试开门,但,不成。
看着他的举动,我有点傻了。
若我开门,就好像有点危险;但,又不能一走了之。
在他尝试开门时,我想"走到路口才那几步路,何必乘搭顺风车呢?"
于是,我把车窗镜摇下,尝试问个清楚。
问。。问。。问。。问了老半天才懂他是要去到我家附近的交通圈那里。
(感谢神!!我的公司在另一个方向!!)
解释了老半天,他才懂我没有经过那里。
感谢神!我脱难了!
在去公司的路途中,我明白了为何我早上的祷告是主祷文。
神 救 我 脱 离 凶 恶!!

徬晚回家,再出
去补习时,不巧又遇到他。
他,超大声又没礼貌地说 "出去啊?没有带我去啊?"
(哗。。跑啊!!)

我感到安全受威胁了。
于是打算回家告诉爸妈,然后叫他们去投诉。
(God is good, all the time!)
补习完毕,妈传短讯要我把车子停在我爸的停车位。
(哦。。为什么我没有把车子停在住家范围内是因为我家只有两个停车位,爸妈各占一个,所以我得停外面。
为什么不要租多一个?因为没有多余的停车位了。)
对于妈的指示虽感到奇怪,可是我没多加询问。
(当妈或爸开车出坡时我才停在他们的停车位。现在爸妈都在槟城。)
回到家,意外地看到爸的停车位是空的。爸的车停在他原来的停车位旁边。
(正巧爸的停车位旁边有个刚好可以停泊一辆车的空位但不是正式的停车位。
也许你会问"既然如此,为何不停在那个空位呢?"因为那不属于任何人,所以我怎么可以霸占呢?)
进了家门,妈就告诉我以后要把车子停进来(double parking),因为下面的安娣告诉她,那个保安人员有问题;虽然已经举报,但不知为何他们又派他来。
然后,我就把我的经历告诉妈。

Wow..you see! God is sooooo good.
在事情未发生前,祂已知道且应许保护。
在我还没发言前,祂已告知全天下。


馬 太 福 音 10

29 两 个 麻 雀 不 是 卖 一 分 银 子 麽 ? 若 是 你 们 的 父 不 许 , 一 个 也 不 能 掉 在 地 上 ;

30 就 是 你 们 的 头 发 也 都 被 数 过 了 。

31 所 以 , 不 要 惧 怕 , 你 们 比 许 多 麻 雀 还 贵 重 !


路 加 福 音 12

6 五 个 麻 雀 不 是 卖 二 分 银 子 麽 ? 但 在 神 面 前 , 一 个 也 不 忘 记 ;

7 就 是 你 们 的 头 发 , 也 都 被 数 过 了 。 不 要 惧 怕 , 你 们 比 许 多 麻 雀 还 贵 重 !

不問為何,只問如何


一场地震,震碎了奥运的欢欣,也震破了无数的家庭的美梦。

  看到温家宝总理紧握着孤女的手,竭尽所能的说出安慰的话,却不能止住女孩的哭泣。那一刻,除 了动容,我能感到他的无奈。纵能掌握全国亿万资源、最高权力,却不能抚平一个稚女心中的苦痛。他能叫千万军队拼死向前,却不能命令无助双眼收回叫他心碎的 眼泪。

  强者的无能处,越发使人神伤。

  又看到军队以血肉之躯,突破蜀道天险,徒步九十公里进入灾区,为的是早一刻抢救被埋的人。还 有那些冒死抢救别人的勇者事迹,使每一个人都肃然起敬。然而人性的光辉,掩不了凄苦的哭声、每一刻生命流失的哀号。

  强壮的勇士,救不了疲弱的生命。

  生死之事,又岂是权势和勇力可以控制的?

  有孕妇和母亲被救出来,拯救者欢呼庆祝,背后却传来啕哭之声,因为她的家翁仍未救出来。拯救 者默然...

  生与死之间,又是谁能主宰呢?

  或许你对这些事有其他看法、有更多的感受、更深的领会,但很多人总会问句:「为甚么呢?为何 神会让这些事发生呢?」然后是一连串永不止息的讨论。我这个普通的信徒,恐怕永远也不会明白苦难的原因,但我却感受到神在这事上的伤心,千万于你我之上。 我们不一定认识这些受害人,仍感到心情沉重;想到认识每一个人的神,面对如此巨大的伤痛,实在是我不敢想象的。

  苍天同哭,神也在同哭。

  大能者可以把苦痛除去,但却选择去承受;可以去拯救,却选择自限;可以决定生死,却接受死 亡,为的是甚么?

  或许其中一个答案仍是回到圣经中:「哀恸的人有福了,因为他们必得安慰。」谁来安慰他们呢? 「怜恤人的人有福了,因为他们必蒙怜恤。」圣经是否早已预告,这份责任,已经放在你我的肩膀上呢?

  不问为何,只问如何。

  让我们为受苦的人祷告,求神赦免他们的罪,接纳他们的生命;也求神让我们明白当作的事。

  「你手若有行善的力量,不可推辞,就当向那应得的人施行。」(箴言3:27)

米 • 饭

这两天晚餐上桌时,那盘饭让我看傻了眼
米饭的份量是我平时吃的双倍!!
怎么这么多啊?
最近不是闹米荒吗?
想到要吃完
头就大了
祝谢了。。开始吃饭。。
吃到一半
好。。饱。。哦。。
一想到白米短缺
不可浪费
就一口一口慢慢吃
终于给我吃完了

这两晚的经历让我不禁发问
嗯..为什么会这样呢?

是否神在述说
不论你身处何境,
记得
我是丰富供应者。

You have turned my sorrow into joy


I was feeling down today.
haiz..haiz..haiz.. cannot continue like this la. whole day will be spoiled.
what can i do to make me happy?

a song came into my mind




..wait for the song to load ya..



常 常 喜 乐 ,向 主 高 歌 , 不 论 环 境 如 何

高 山 或 低 谷 主 都 看 顾 , 相 信 就 能 蒙 福

常 常 祷 告 ,耐 心 等 候 , 主 做 事 有 定 时

流 泪 撒 种 必 欢 呼 收 割 , 相 信 就 有 喜 乐

下 垂 的 手 再 一 次 举 起 来

封 闭 的 心 再 一 次 敞 开

抛 开 一 切 忧 虑 ,放 下 一 切 重 担

来 到 主 的 面 前 ,我 喜 乐 满 怀

冰 冷 的 心 被 主 爱 来 温 暖

干 渴 的 灵 被 主 爱 充 满

主 是 我 的 力 量 ,主 是 我 的 高 台

死 荫 幽 谷 一 路 有 耶 稣 陪 伴 , 他 永 不 离 开


I was getting better a bit but still...
what to do le...
take a shower..
quiet down myself..
put aside all the worries and sad thingy
and started to..
Thank God for the warm and cosy home
Thank God for
good parking place when I reach home late
Thank God for reached home safely
Thank God for being with me all day long
Thank God for helpful colleague and friendly environment when working doesn't go smoothly
Thank God for cute students when teaching is tired and discouraged
Thank God for papa mama are good and happy
Thank God for bee hoon and mee when rice is out of stock
Thank God for huan zhu when (if) bee hoon and mee also out of stock
Thank God I love huan zhu
Haha =p

No matter how bad is the situation. There's always something you can give thanks. There is no room for sorrow in a grateful heart. So..be thankful yea

高高立起的十字架
父将我罪挂上

我相信 我相信 I’m Clean

耶稣 感谢你
