He's got the whole world in His hands

There are too much to worry about in this life we live in today.
Some are worth pondering upon, some are just pointless to dwell on.

Ecclesiastes 7:14 (NIV)
14 When times are good, be happy;
but when times are bad, consider:
God has made the one
as well as the other.
Therefore, a man cannot discover
anything about his future.

(The Message)
14 On a good day, enjoy yourself;
On a bad day, examine your conscience.
God arranges for both kinds of days
So that we won't take anything for granted.

(NLT)
14 Enjoy prosperity while you can,
but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God.
Remember that nothing is certain in this life.

Our future is so uncertain. Anything can happen tomorrow.
But as for today, lets be grateful and thank God for it.

Nothing is certain in this life we live in.
Put your trust, security and find your identity in Christ and let the truth set you free.
-As I put my sense of security and identity in some one or some thing, it may fail, it may vary, or change and it's unstable. But rooting oneself in Christ is the best bet as He'll never fail nor will He change. When our sense of identity, security and trust (pro-active) is in Him, we realize that we don't need to cling on to things or people so tightly.

Keep it simple, guys. Life's too short to worry about every single thing.

Communion with Huey

Communion After we celebrated Huey's birthday in cell on the 29/5/14, I brought out my wine and bread that I've bought from Jaya Grocer with the prompting of the Holy Spirit to have communion with Huey, honouring her and God as we journey in this refreshing time of experiencing God together and intimately. Initially I thought of the idea of communion to be the usual ritual that we do on the first week of Sunday; little did I know God had a different plan in mind for us. After we sat down and I surprised her with the wine and the bread I bought, we truly had communion and devotion together with each other and in the presence of God. We began talking about what we see God doing in our lives. Huey started with what she was learning from the books that she's been reading and how it is relevant and meaningful now compared to if she would to read it a few months ago. How she danced with God this afternoon and had such a great day just sitting at the feet of Jesus, soaking...

Make Room

Never knew I enjoy expressing myself through writing my thoughts down. Was it therapy or was it the lack of avenue to truly experience freedom in personal expression? If there's something I learned studying theology, it's probably both/and rather than 'or'. It's been 5 years since I've posted something on this blog. Honestly, I didn't know it was still hosted! It's been a crazy few years and the journey of how I felt led to join Alpha Asia Pacific is another post for another day. Now that I'm here, 10 months in, I think a reflection and a review is due. I got what I came for, Growth! I was certainly stretched! I had to learn and grow or be left behind. It's like being a beginner again. I enjoyed learning in Alpha and in htbb; the process was hard. Navigating everything with Huey by my side gave me perspective and hope. She challenges me Godwards and that is what I invaluably love about her. Funny how I never thought or 'liked' to travel, ...

The Movie In India

We (Me, Simon, Meeri (Varathan's brother), Kim and Ethan when to the cinema for a movie last night. We when there expecting that no one will watch a English movie entitled "Be Cool". Yea, I know what you're thinking. "We're kinda outdated here." It was so cool, I took a picture of us in the cinema. Actually Meeri took it. Anyway, we when there on a "tuk tuk" or more like the "auto" with 3 wheels and no door kinda small motor thingi. 5 Of us plus the driver was in that small mini "auto". It was alright actually. Quite fun ride, not to mention, Scary! So we reached there and guess what? The movie tickets were SOLD OUT! And we're so sad. BUT the miracle happen, one guy told us about ppl asking the manager and getting tickets from him. I'm like, well, it's worth a try. So we when up to the manager's office and there were 3 other people besides the manager and Kim just dash in and say, something like "Hi, man...
