Paces of life

In life, there is something what we call life journey. It is not constrains to a time line, neither is it constrains by distance. It is a journey that requires a lot of attentions and effort if one wants to gain most out of his life journey.

For example, one may make the same mistakes over and over again. Then he blames God for placing him into such situations. Did he learn from his life? I believe he did not. Why some will learn from their first mistakes…some will just go round and round and wouldn’t learn from it at all. I hope I am not in this category, but much often than not, I felt so helpless…as I know I made the same mistakes over and over again. YET I did not learn from it.

Before I can even talk about paces of life, I should start with concentrating on the development of my life. Before one 100M-sprint runner become fit for Olympic games, he has to train daily, besides running, he need proper diets, proper exercise and proper lifestyle such as waking up early and sleep early. In the same way, before one start to paced his life and move on, he has to look into his inner self, as he needs to have a proper diet (to feed oneself with the word of God), he needs to have proper exercise (to exercise his faith and to trust God in times of trouble), and lastly, to have a proper lifestyle (to live a holy life, to be more like Jesus each day).

Forgiveness is one of the hardest issues to learn in life. Once you are hurt, you felt like taking revenge, even feel like hating that person for the rest of your life. But is this the way or lifestyle of Jesus? Definitely not~ but it’s often easier to say than done. J I tried and tried and tried. It hurts even deeper if he/she is the person you trusted that hurts you. Everyone make mistakes…but things that are done purposely are the most painful of all. Unforgiveness is just like a hurdle that is so high that even a high-jump athlete can’t jump over it. It will no longer be paces of life, but pit stops-of-life.

When we hold grudges on others, when we refused to view from the other person’s point of view, when we don’t choose to see others from the view of God, then more often than not we will eventually think that we are always in the right. That will make us even more selfish. Selfishness will grow and eventually it will no longer be a thoughts, but now it is an act, then as the act grow bigger, it becomes a practices, then it will become a lifestyles.
When this lifestyles has becomes a habit, it will follows you like a shadow. Then slowly you will choose to be possessive towards yourself for your own benefits, possessive towards material things for your own benefits, even possessive towards others.

As a conclusion, I believe that God is love and that he has given us his son, Jesus as a life lesson on earth, so that we will grow more to be like him. THIS is the pace of life; this is the lesson of life à to be more like Him one day. But why do I call this “paces of life”? This is because it will be fast at times, and yet sometimes it will be slow to learn and grasp the meaning of life (which is to be more like Him). Therefore, I believe that paces of life will make one fast at times, yet sometimes slow. So, what is YOUR pace in following Jesus in life?

Flashbacks 2009

As i mentioned before this is the blog dedicated to Sharron Tan.

We had a wonderful valentine last night.



Went for a Youth Valentine Nite organised by S.Y.M to support them.

Then went to Yatai Mura for dinner. The place is so jam pack that we got to wait for almost 40 minutes... Okay.. where was I?



Oh ya... I had written quiet few letters to Sharron about life/friendship and etc etc...
Some are kinda interesting to me and i hope you enjoy reading....

VBS 2008- Power Lab

"God gives us the power to be thankful!" "Ah-ha~"

That was the echo on today as 160 children gather at RGBC for once a year Vocational Bible School (VBS).

This time, instead of being the station leaders in games. I decided to takes on a new role.
As the worship leader. Hehe.. Instead of leading worship, we are supposed to dance and an old man like me would be hard to do so...

I cant remember the steps.. bla bla bla..

I had spend so much time on dance practises that i even dont have time for Sharron this week. Hahaha...

Forgive me dear...

Okay.. a new challange for a new year to come... I love challanges...

Where am i heading?

As i look back.. Malaysia has been in the eyes of the world for 50 years.
We were first "peers" to Japan, Korea and Taiwan 10 years ago...
Now we are considered as "peers" to Thailand and Indonesia...

Is this a kind of place where i want to live in? Is it a country that is moving forward or backward?
I know of a saying... what that doesn't move forward will move backward...

If Malaysia "CHOSE" to move BACKWARD... Then i have to MOVE ON with my life else where....

Yeah finally my house has internet

Hihi...

after so many days of waiting... my blog can be updated more frequently now...
Why?
Internet is ON~~

But in the same time i have bad news, the global slow down has hit my company and particularly my team.
We have our headcount freezed even when my job responsibility has doubled(due to transfer from USA)...

What kind of theory is this? Sad sad sad....

Okay for today, has to rest before tomorrow's audit... :(

A tiger and a cow

Today i watch the talk show from Michael Hui( a popular artist of HK during 80's)

He mentioned that " In order to keep a long and lasting marriage life, sometimes the cow has to eat a little of meat while tiger has to eat a little of grass".

I do agree, tiger and cow is just like man and women.... these are 2 seperate beings with distintive characters and behavior trying to live together. Thus, sometimes have to "cheat" a little and pretend that i like grass though i am a carnivor....

Still an open questions in my mind.... But worth to ponder upon.. :->

Sad sad news today

Today as usual i came to RKC (Randiant Kidz) a place where i serve as a children leader.

There is a boy by the name of Andy( fake name- to protect his identity), he is a young boy of only 4 years old(i guess)... but since young after the parents seperated, he lives with his ah ma.

All these years it's his dad that gave his daily expenses to his ah ma. Now the father has stop giving and his mum has stop visiting him...
Now THE WORST NEWS is he will be send to a orphanage in KL~~!!!

I dont know what should i respond? Should i respond in anger or should i respond in love?

This is iroonic~~ When 2 falls in love... they "dot dot dot" then when the kid is born... they ran away from their responsibility...

I am speechless......

WIll andy grows up hating this world? Will he chose to see this world from another angle?

I do have the sudden urge to adopt him... but i am disqualified...speechless....
