"God Wants You To Pass The Tests Of Life"

Character is developed and revealed by tests, and all of life is a test. But the good news is that God wants you to pass the tests of life, so He never allows the tests you face to be greater than the grace He gives you to handle them.

"Hold On ~ God Knows What He Is Doing"

[13 October 2012 : In My Grandmother's Home]
 
Rejoice! Yes! Thank You Jesus! My grandmother told me this morning as I was worshipping the Lord with my keyboard at home that she believed in Jesus! I thought I was dreaming because I was ministering to her for 3 years but she ignored and avoided this topic. But now, she told me that she was praying for a change in the family. She saw the vast transformation in me; she saw how I trusted Jesus and how He changed my life!
 
I cannot believe my ears when she told me to dispose the Buddhist Taoist praying beads I bought her 8 years ago (when I was still a Buddhist). It was really hard when I shared Jesus with her in the beginning because she tends to give negative comments. But I endured the process and continue to pray and trust God that He will intervene in this matter. Sure enough, this Saturday morning, she told me that she wants to learn to pray to Jesus.
 
Praise God! Hallelujah! God heard my prayers and my grandmother is now saved. The process may take a long time but I persevered and endured till the end. So brothers and sisters in Christ, hold on - for God knows what He doing and in His time, all will be well.

"Be A Witness Right Where You Are"

Your work is an avenue God can use to bless people in many ways. God expects you to be a witness right where you are. Be a witness of God's blessing and goodness and love. You don't have to be a pastor or a priest to walk with God and be used by Him. Just bloom where you are planted and faithfully use what God has given you for His glory and the growth of His kingdom.

"I Will Tell Of All Your Marvelous Works"

[6 August 2012 : Praising God]

Last night, in my quiet moments, on my keyboard, when I wait with an expectant and listening heart, the Lord came to me. All of a sudden, I was weeping and I recognized His influence in my everyday life. He has truly ordered my steps for the plan He has for me. I was crying non-stop, praising Him, calling out to Him and deep within my heart, I knew that I must not stop doing this : "I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works".

"Living In The Light Of Your Love"

[19 January 2012 : 2:15 am]

Dear Heavenly Father,
O Lord of Creation, Your Word is so direct and powerful, and it touches and then reaches down and opens up my spirit so that it rises to You. I want to draw closer to Your love, so that I may feel its warmth and comfort. O Father, now I see that You are the One who meets my every need, and give every good instruction. I do not need to tell You that I do not know which way to turn to, because I can turn to You and find rest, security, guidance, truth, and glorious life, which will equip me for every work.
Thank You Father ~ I love You Lord!

 

"God Heard My Prayers Even Before I Accepted Christ"

Before I accepted Christ, I was a staunch Buddhist and I have never been to a church. My dad was luckier than me because most of his friends and colleagues are Christians and sometimes they would invite my dad to their church for Sunday service.

I have accepted Christ 5 years ago (since the year 2007) and I am the only Christian in my family at the moment. But I fully trust and have faith in the Lord that my family will all be saved because He has already given me the wisdom to minister to my parents and my grandmother – Praise The Lord! Hallelujah! Well, the story here is actually about how God heard my prayers even before I accepted Christ.

Our God is a good God and it all happened when my dad’s friend invited him to a Christmas Eve concert in a church. I was only 6 years old back then when my dad took me to a church for the first time and we were both seated at the front row. It was also that night I was moved by the Holy Spirit; I saw everything white and cloudy on the stage and I was also captivated by the pianist when she rendered a beautiful melody. As I was so into the music and the drama (that night the drama was about Jesus performing miracles and how prayers can do wonders for those who believed in Him), suddenly I put my hands together and said a short prayer like this : Jesus, You are so great! How I wish I could play the piano like the pianist on the stage – Yes! I want to play like her for You!
