Problems...

a very interesting and comforting fact i found out today..

Psalm 30:1-12

history teaches that every problem and every experience of suffering has a life span. No problem is permanent. are you suffering? do you have problems?

they will pass; they will not last. your problem will not live forever, but you will!

storms always give way to the sun. winter always thaws into springtime. your storm will pass. your winter will thaw. your crying will end. your problem will be resolved.


trust in the Lord with all your heart, because He loves us.

sometimes.. it's very easy for those who is in great life, achieving everything and have a perfect life tells us to trust in the Lord. but how about when we suffers? and having everything upside down and still say they trust the Lord?

"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted, and he saves those who spirits have been crushed" Psalm 31:18

i'm comforted by those brothers and sisters. they are the glorified witness to Jesus. because they teaches me how to still trust in the Lord even then times of trouble, and problems. therefore, this verse. meant a lot to me.

你对撒但的了解有多少?

a very interesting topic i came across today... in Job 1:6-12

God is really great!

(1)它要向神交代。所有天使,不论良善的或邪恶的,都要在神面前交代(1:6)。
(2)神对撒但了如指掌(1:7),他知道撒但有意攻击约伯。
(3)撒但在同一时间只能在同一个地方出现(1:6-7),它虽然有邪灵的帮助,但作为被造者,它是有限的。(4)撒但不能看透我们的心或预言未来的事(1:9-11)。如果它能的话,便知道约伯不会在压力下屈服的。(5)撒但若没得到神的允许便甚么都不能做(1:7),所以属神的人能通过神的力量胜过它的攻击。
(6)神给撒但定下了可做之事的界限(1:12;参2:6)。撒但的回应(1:7)告诉我们,它在地上是真实和活跃的。这些关于撒但的情况有助于我们靠近强大过撒但的神。

What a day.. what a life...

think of the days when moses trying to convince the people to cross the red sea, saying God will lead them all the way...

well... nothing special came to my mind and i always read this story for the sake of it.. a true amazing story.. until recently.. when my life become... what it seems to be waiting patiently for God to make the move, instead of me.

then.. i suddenly realised, i am just like the Israelites, waiting to do impossible things, waiting and prepare to cross the red sea!

it is so unthinkable, but yet so true and real.


oh well.. few more chapters to go and i am moving on into the next stage of my life. can't wait.. hehehe...

The Greatest Encouragement!

this song reflects totally what i really felt inside. no more strength. no more confident to overcome what i faced right now..

cried uncontrollably when i heard this song.

thank you Jesus, because of your love. your strength. and your promise. because of you, i can face my trouble, I can walk the stormy sea and stand on the mountains... just like He promise in Isaiah 40:28-31

Song by Selah - You Raise Me Up.


When I am down, and oh my soul, so weary.
When troubles come, and my heart burdened be.
Then I am still and wait here in the silence.
Until You come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up so I can stand on mountains.
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas.
I am strong when I am on your shoulders.
You raise me up to more than I can be.

You raise me up so I can stand on mountains.
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas.
I am strong when I am on your shoulders.
You raise me up to more than I can be.

There is no life ?No life without its hunger.
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly.
But when you come and I am filled with wonder.
Sometimes I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up so I can stand on mountains.
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas.
I am strong when I am on your shoulders.
You raise me up to more than I can be.

You raise me up so I can stand on mountains.
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas.
I am strong when I am on your shoulders.
You raise me up ?No more than I can be.
