Wait for your Boaz

For all the single ladies in such a hurry to get married here is a piece of Biblical advice. Ruth patiently waited for her mate Boaz. So while waiting on your Boaz, please do not settle for any of his relatives … Broke-az, Po-az, Lyin-az, Cheatin-az, Dumb-az, Cheap-az, Lockedup-az, Goodfornothin-az, Lazy-az or Married-az and especially his third cousin Beatinyo-az. Please wait on your Boaz and make sure he respects Yo-az!

So easily distracted

We are so easily distracted. like kids.

One moment we are praising God and thanking Him for His goodness, and another moment later we find ourselves entertaining thoughts of unworthiness, thoughts of despair, thoughts of negativity, thoughts that are obliviously ungodly and we forgot to ask ourselves hey why are we even entertaining them in the first place. But instead we let our mind and and body do what we don't want to most of the time.

And we thank God again on Sunday or Saturday, forgetting how we have behaved during the weekends.

And how long do we want to do behave like this? Until He comes back to judge? I dare not think.

Perhaps some of us needs to wake up our idea, and open our eyes to see that we need to live more consistently in our condition of our heart and not letting it rule us but overcome it everyday with the New Spirit that lives within us. I feel so bad, because every time I give in to a negative thought I almost felt that I am suffocating the Spirit that I have invited to live in me. It almost felt like I have been ill treating Him living inside me.

Perhaps what I am struggling is not just a mere laziness, but a peace-less state within myself of how I am living that I find it hard to come before Him. Yet I must, and the longer I procrastinate the longer I delay His work of His will that I am suppose to live out in my life and I missed out the daily work and calling that He has for me simply because "I am away" or "not around".

I personally experience the lost and the pain of the consequences for "not being there" when I know I could have, should have...for somebody. But I was not there. And things happened. And there and then I experienced what you do with your calling is never about you alone.

This is when I realize that it is NOT OK to missed out on God's calling, not even a single day. Because you would not know which day you would make a difference, or MISSED making one. And in exchange devil took your place and seize the opportunity to grab more souls.

IT IS a scary thought isn't it?

Therefore, it should not be out of fear, but in reverse out of a Determined Courage that we continue to live everyday CONSISTENT, INTACT always with our calling, dreams, vision and most importantly a walk with God that is Godly in our every aspect of life, thought life especially. Trust God everyday to keep us strong.

Let "i can't" die with Christ, and let Jesus' friend "I can" take over you every thought, every fear, every anxiety, and let Faith run rampantly in your walk with God.

Take my life and let it be




Take my life, and let it be
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee;
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.

Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love;
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee,
Swift and beautiful for Thee.

Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King;
Take my lips, and let them be
Filled with messages from Thee,
Filled with messages from Thee.

Take my silver and my gold;
Not a mite would I withhold;
Take my intellect, and use
Every power as Thou shalt choose,
Every power as Thou shalt choose.

Take my will, and make it Thine;
It shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart; it is Thine own;
It shall be Thy royal throne,
It shall be Thy royal throne.

Take my love; my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure-store.
Take myself, and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

Layman's Language ..

Layman's language - 10 commandments .. my ex-colleague shared this with me. Great read !
1] Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble, but it is a "steering wheel" that directs the right path throughout. (Reminded me.. let Jesus be the driver in the driver seat! Amen!)

2] So a Car's WINDSHIELD is so large & the Rear view mirroe is so small? Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, Look Ahead and Move on. (a big ... AMEN!)

3] Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes a few second to burn, but it takes years to write.

4] All things in life are temporary. If going well, enjoy it, they will not last forever. If going wrong, don't worry. they can't last long either.

5] Old Friends are Gold! New Friends are Diamond! If you get a Diamond, don't forget the Gold! Because to hold a Diamond, you always need Base of Gold!

6] Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from above and says "Relax, sweetheart, it's just a bend, not the end!"

7] When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities; when GOD doesn't solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.

8] A blind person asked St.Anthony: "Can there be anything worse than losing eye sight?" He replied: "Yes, losing your vision!"

9] When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them, and sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you.

10] WORRYING does not take away tomorrow's TROUBLES, it takes away today's PEACE.

Why is it so hard to get it right

Poooooi...

Darn bookmark, so hard to get it right. But nevermind all the wasted construction paper can recycle as paper. *cunning face*

Been trying to experiment making my own bookmarks but its okay I learnt alot from the mistakes and some times even got some new ideas out of it!

IT IS just that the frustrations of getting it right and making things consistent that I am still not used to yet; and it can get over the top at times. >_<

Am still experimenting with the different materials. Origami books are arriving this Friday and paper crafting books next week. Gosh I need a schedule planner,oh no, I need to plan my schedule!!!

God guide me and give me patience.


Love you guys!!!  Help me pray for God's flowing creativity!! <3

Starting a blog business idea..maybe?


It is a little sarcastic to add in the word maybe judging from the materials that I have already invested in, but the truth is there is a lot more work involved than I think. I feel kinda embarrassed for saying this when I already knew how much work it’s gonna cost.

It happened when I was just musing with my own thoughts on my bed half asleep, when this image of a blog shop selling "mini" stuff came to mind. These ideas partly came from the conversations I have made regarding blog shop with people who are interested in starting one and I was telling them what might work.


Ever since that morning, I have been having a flow of ideas that is adding on to one another. Somehow, for something that I have already given a “dead sentence” like this won’t work, it’s not productive or its not cost effective sorta thoughts. Elias add on to the thoughts that some else already done it very well before us and it might not work. And yes of course I knew there are people better than me, there will always be people better than me unless I am the best right? But still there is this feeling of peace and encouragement to continue and everywhere I go, whatever I need things seemed to be provided and favour somehow. So, I have decided to take foot on a step of courage and accept this challenge. I am treating it as a learning phase that I am “using” and “sharpening” the gifts that He gave me until I am mature and perfect in His given gifts. BUT today I want to add on that it must also make money thinking tha it won’t be so tough on me for my study years and the loan, and I trust that if God is with me He will surely enable me and bless me to bear bountiful fruits for Him in due season. It must be both fruitful and talent-giving.


So far He has showed me through ideas and thoughts and ways through people around me to get me cheap reference books (thanks Elias), promotion sale and cheaper price on materials (thanks to Lijuan girl) and even colleagues when I asked for advice on where to get the different things and she is so willing to share. That is the spirit I wanna have, a spirit of sharing and learning in my business, DIY or whatever I call it later. I also know that this is a humbling experience as God is showing you the way and you gotta be humble in order to receive well. And yes when I do my research He provides the ways. Loves God.


The idea is to start a blog shop that exudes individual artistic style and craft pieces that is both inspiring and looks professionally handmade.


Here come the problems:



1)      While I understood the shoppers buying nature and am confident enough that I know what might sell I realise that my skills still need more work to meet up to the consumer standard.


2)      As compared to the past, I realise that I am less patient and tend to want to “get things over with” that is obstructing my productivity. Don’t get me wrong I can spend the whole day doing this won’t get tired of it but it is the impatience that is causing me to make more mistakes than I should and expect of myself to.


3)      Money. I need a part time job for now.


However, as it is a journey likewise I have learnt and realize more about myself since childhood. I have become stronger, wiser and less naïve than before and perhaps than most people all glory to God but I have also realize that I am less tolerant, more impatient and hmm perhaps less kind due to distrust in man consciously and unconsciously. I still thank God that He had brought me through a lot to have learnt and receive compassion and acceptance in people and in myself that has brought about the change and confidence in me, through all the suffering and pain.


So perhaps I am really on the right track, judging that God is actually speaking to and through me every day as I hear and obey his calling. That He continues to teach and remind me of the things I need to change and work on until the day of Perfection come. The whole thing is personal only to me, as it feels like He is reversing the effects of the past through actively developing and recreating back the fullness of the trust, love and faith inside me until I am fully restored. How, by using the childhood memory, because every time when I do something for somebody I always think about how it will bless and bring joy to the person that I am gifting to, all the good thoughts about people and good things. I think that is what we need to exercise consciously every day yet; we are not doing enough because we are busy and even worse for hurting people because they are constantly being attacked by bad thoughts.


I am that hurting people but redeemed.


The greater the hurt the greater the extent of the genuine love and joy you need to have to live every day for God.


and yes He provides. But everyone is different, He has given me a way out personally by bringing me back to my “original” state when I was trusting and pure in my visualization, and by giving me a dream, a passion that is greater than the pain, He has spoken life to me and I accepted. We all need to ask God for one too for a way to get out of our pain and live hopefully in His glory everyday.



Working towards Purity, Praise God!
