Kops muse

"Yes, maybe as a manager I should think more and worry more about the goals we conceded, but I couldn’t care less, to be honest. For development, it’s the most important thing that you react in the right way. There’s a perfect football game all these boys can play, but a rather difficult game is what we have to make them ready for. It was a difficult football game and they worked their socks off and played their soul on the pitch. I really loved it. " - Jurgen Kloops

 I like how Kloops sees it. A tough match is the training field for the boys to be ready for what Kloops sees in them. He looks at their spirit of excellence, more than just the goals. It kinda translates well who we can be and for what we are toiling for too... :)

the right one..

While the world urges me to focus on finding the right person, my Lord and Saviour tells me to focus on BEING the right person. He says "I'll help you find the right person, you don't need to sweat over it. Fulfilling your need for companionship (or another other need/want like wealth, fame, approval for that matter) is not so important that you need to emphasize on it so much.There are more pressing and urgent things to sweat over, things that matter to me. People in need, people who are hurting, people who have yet to experience my goodness. These things are more worthy of your energy and attention. Seek first my kingdom and my righteousness, I'll take care of you. Focus on BEING the right person." Finding the right person is self-centered, BEING the right person is God-centered.   .

God's will through the storm

  First Bread with love at TPY! Man does not live on bread alone.. but with Sherlynn.. :p What a joy to be able to serve and be His hands and feet in anyways I could, however small it may seems..  Met a 80 year old uncle while distributing bread.. and His story really breaks my heart. It has been a week since I met him but I still feel so burden till now. It feels as though God has placed his emotions in mine.  He works as a social worker, but in the midst of giving, he became skeptical that God is good. As he go on to share about his resentment towards God's silence in natural evil; such as earthquakes and death, and how God can go on sitting comfortably at His throne and watching his people suffer, my heart can't help but to break, for I know all that he is sharing about others is just a facade of what he himself have experienced that compelled him to doubt His goodness or existence.  How can you hate something that you don't believe exist?...

day by day, and with each passing moment

Day by day, and with each passing moment, Strength I find to meet my trials here; Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment, I’ve no cause for worry or for fear. He, whose heart is kind beyond all measure, Gives unto each day what He deems best, Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure, Mingling toil with peace and rest. Every day the Lord Himself is near me, With a special mercy for each hour; All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me, He whose name is Counsellor and Pow’r. The protection of His child and treasure Is a charge that on Himself He laid; “As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,” This the pledge to me He made. Help me then, in every tribulation, So to trust Thy promises, O Lord, That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation, Offered me within Thy holy Word. Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting, E’er to take, as from a father’s hand, One by one, the days, the moments fleeting, Till with Christ the Lord I stand. In Psalm 27:10-14 Th...
