HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY CHUEN!!!!
that was all it need.
To start a great friendship,
that last til this date.
We often ask,
at moments such as this,
what are the best words to say,
on such a memorable day.
I know I made it obvious,
& it was clear for most to see,
that those days just ain't the easiest,
moments for me.
But you've helped me thru' the fall,
& I always know you care,
but most important of all,
you've always been there.
I know it was not easy,
listening to me cry,
but i don't think you know what it means to me,
to have you by my side.
You've guided me thru' the tunnel,
til I see the light,
& it's nice to know there's someone,
who would share the burden of my fight.
Why I'm blessed with a friend like you,
this i never know.
But I thank God everyday,
for letting a friend like you, to come my way.
As time past, separate we may go.
The seasons change & it will show.
I will age & so will you,
but our friendship remains, strong & true.
This poem marks my friendship to you,
on such a day specially for you,
here's a promise I make to you,
that I'll always be there for you.
Thanks chuen & God bless you.

Let's X-cavate!!!
It says we are God's chosen people. Each of us today, having a relationship with God because He chose to start a relationship with us first. We didn't make the call. He did. He is so merciful & kind to us. He chose each of us just as we are. A sinner who didn't know what sin is & who lived in a lifestyle so compromising to the pattern of the world. But now, we are no longer bounded by sin. He paid the final price at calvary. Now we are His people, with immediate excess to Him. We can talk to Him anytime, anywhere. Our identity is found in our creator!
Nevertheless, we also become a mediator between God & the non-believers, introducing them to God. Our purpose now is to glorify Him & our mission on earth is to do what God wants us to do; which is to make disciples. That is God's calling in our life. We are the salt & light for this world. We are the one who shine the path & lead people to God. As christians, we all know this. We hear it from our leaders, sermons & friends. But the Bible says :-James1:22Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
It made me wonder, am I doing what God calls me to do. Am I doing on my own strength or relying upon Him to open the way? Did I make full use of the opportunity He has given me?During devotion, someone shared: "I just wonder if God is pleased with me?" This question really stucked in my head til now. During worship, God's love & sacrifice began to hit me. His grace & blessings ran in my mind once again. I asked Him, "Why do you love us so much?" "What did we do to deserve such an amazing grace?" Slowly, I began to weep. It just remind me that His grace is sufficient for me. Nothing else matter. If I didn't get what I want, maybe God thinks that it is not suitable for me, or it is not time for me to have it, or maybe He is putting me through another challenge to refine my faith. Whatever the outcome is, I believe it is best for me.
But now, I should start X-cavating myself. Am I carrying out His mission?
