love this song; Sinking deep. :D

Received another book from Jeanette!
My take-away from it..

Nothing wrong with excelling, but if it begins to twist you, then it's a temptation.
My life was to be more than cars or keeping up with others.
Going for missions meant no spending money that would make us richer than the islanders

If you get proud, God cant use you.

confession to man brings humility and unity and makes a repetent person ready to receive God's healing of mind, emotion and body.

Living the Christian life is difficult, there is only one thing harder--> that's not being a Christian.

Guidance is first of all a relationship with the Guide. it is to lead us to a closer relationship with Jesus. There is nothing wrong with tools, but its sad if the tools ever supersede the lord himself.
This is what hearing God is all about, getting to know him better.
1. Ask him to help you silence your thoughts and desires and the opinions of others that may be filling your mind.
2. resist enemy
3. expect an answer.
4. confess unforgiven sin.
5. purpose of waiting--> pride, presumption, missing God's timing and method, bringing confusion to others.
6. holy spirit never contradicts the WOG.
7. practice hearing God's voice.

"Thirty years ago, my colleagues, younger and more dreamy eyed, settled the words of our pledge. We did not focus our minds on our navels or we would have missed the rainbow in the sky.

And there are rich findings at the end of that rainbow." "To the young and the not too old, I say look at the horizon, find that rainbow, go ride it. Not all will be rich; quite a few will find a vein of gold but all who pursue that rainbow will have a joyous and exhilarating ride and some profit." Mr Lee Kuan Yew Looking at Lee Kuan Yew, how he gave up his life for the good of others, for the generation and future one to come to have a better life. How he sees the value of what he is doing.. Also reminded of Jesus Christ, how he gave up his life, sacrifice for us when he did no wrong, to that he may be sin ...

The heart of worship (Christian Artist)

Humbled by this experience to dance on stage for the audience of One, ministering to others through dance. Thank You Lord, all glory to you.  That first step of obedience is the toughest. I know full well someone else could do a better job than me, and know that it is by the grace of God that I can be involved in His kingdom, serving Him and ministering to others.  When I was doubting my abilities, secretly hoping that the leader will change his mind and get someone else to do it, God never stop searching my heart and tells me who am I in Him, that it is indeed all about Him and not me. He bring me back to this very reason of why I started dancing for Him. "I'll bring you more than a dance,  for a dance in itself, is not what you've required. You searched much deeper within,  through the way things appear,  You're looking into my heart."  (heart of worship) The world looks at efficiency and capability, but God looks at the hear...
