Truly, Malaysian.

Someone posted about being Malaysian.
My friend: She is not Malaysian meh?
Me : You can be a Malaysian without truly knowing the real meaning of being a Malaysian.
Being a Malaysian takes so much more than what you think it is. It is about loving one another regardless religion, culture, financial level, ethnicity and status . It is about taking off whatever you are and going extra miles for one another. It is about compromising and the willingness to understand the beautiful differences we have that make each of us unique. It is about doing what best for our Malaysia. It's the heart of acceptance despite the differences knowing that we have one thing in common :
THE LOVE for MALAYSIANS and MALAYSIA.

Cheshire-Provoke My Thoughts.
POSTED ON: 04 April 2012 @ 1:17 AM | 4 comments
We doubt what we can do. Even to the extend of underestimate our abilities and gifts. Sometimes, we compares ourselves with people who are better than us in things we are capable of. You see,what I've took back from Cheshire was even disabled were able to teach a lesson or two. Why? They are of less condition than us but why they encourage us? Because who they are. Because they use every skills and every ways to continue living. They use everything they can. They make full use of themselves. God wants to use us to establish His kingdom and do His will with everything we possess-our strengths and weaknesses. But why we do not allow Him to make full use of us? Why we do not use every skills and every ways we can to continue to do His works? Such provocative thought. Why some of us even doubt ourselves?
Smile. A smile wasn't easy for this man. To be able to smile despite his disabilities provokes me. You see, I was a stranger. But he smiled with friendliness. But why people in our society do not practice to smile to strangers or people we just met when smile is an easy thing for us to do?
''A smile is also a gift. We may not know who we can impact with our smiles.''
What do you see in this picture? Did you realise the overturned swing? Personally, I like the concept of the whole picture. For me, I think it's pretty despite the overturned swing. It may look normal too. But not every scenery pictures have an overturned swing.
We often frown for obstacles that we can't handle. Often, we forgot that these obstacles(weaknesses as well) made our life. It makes our life-pretty. And each obstacles may be viewed 'normal' but not every one have the same obstacles. You see, some obstacles are meant for some people so that very obstacles could be lessons for people that are facing it. Our lives is kind of short to make every mistakes therefore we learn from other peoples' mistakes too.
''Your life is beautiful with obstacles that are meant to make your life wonderful for God,Himself is beautiful and wonderful.''

''I asked and I was given.''
How do you feel when you do something out of a norm?
When nobody seems to care about that particular person and there you go,doing something for that someone.
I was in Khaleel (a typical Malaysian place where they sell all kinds of food-we call it 'Mamak' here).There was this old man asking for money.He said he wanted to buy a drink.My heart sore.I wanted to give him money as I took out my purse but one of my juniors said 'You can buy bread for him.''.I asked him whether he wanted a drink and the type of drink he wanted.He said 'Ice Tea''.I ordered for him.I gave to him personally as to show my sincerity.
Do you know what happened?
After he finished his drink,he said,'Jie jie,thank you for the drink.I am from !@£$% hospital.''.I smiled to him.I realised that he couldn't even utter those words properly.I was so sad that I held my tears.I saw his hand,it was physical deteriorated.He was older than me but he did not have the ability to distinguish.I was sympathetic.
Then I realised.
In church today,I asked God to grow in Him for his gift upon me.To use me to help the poor and needy.To have His heart.And He gave me one.It was great to feel(and sad as it was heart-wrenching) what He feels on the poor and needy.It was amazing that I had a chance to exhibit His love.I pray that I will continue to shine for him and to help the poor and needy.It is a great joy to serve the poor and needy.=)
Prov. 14:31 Anyone who oppresses the poor is insulting God who made them. To help the poor is to honor God.
Prov. 22:9 Happy is the generous man, the one who feeds the poor.
Prov. 22:9 Happy is the generous man, the one who feeds the poor.

''Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me''
Break my heart for what breaks yours
Everything I am for you kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to eternity''
I love this song.It stirred my heart when I listened to this part.Being a Christian in USM-What a blessings?I was asked why would I be a leader in PKA?It was to equip myself with His words and to be the salt in my family.God is doing greater things in my life.
''I am glad I am different.Because being different is different.''
I wrote that in my Facebook.I am actually very delighted that I am different because I know Christ the Lord in a personal way.It is seriously different.There are things that I have seen,believe with my faith and listen as well because God was and is with me.I used to think that you know,I am loud and I was just another I-don't-know,some crappy person that talks craps.But having sense of humour is a gift itself.It put smiles on people.It relaxes people.It draws people to you.It's a gift,I believe from my MIGHTY GOD.I am happy to be different.Different because He made me different.
It is the same message that I was receiving-LOVE THE PEOPLE.LOVE!!I heard it in Conference and now I hear it again in Leaders' Retreat.To love unconditionally to everyone.Love is PURE because He is PURE and HE IS LOVE.HE created to love each other.EVERYONE!!
Dear:Heavenly Father,
Thank you,Lord once again for opening my heart to love people I know and to stretch me to love people I have yet to know even more.I believe Lord that you gave me these gifts that I could never realise if I do not use---to love PEOPLE in USM!!I believe Lord you are doing something that is remarkable in my life.I may fall Lord but I would know YOU WILL BE THERE FOR ME LORD like you've always been.It's time for a revival-To be an agent of change.I was worried Lord that I couldn't cope but I realised that you are in control,Lord and who am I to worry when you are working through me,O'Lord?Thank you Lord for everything that was blessed in Leaders' Retreat.I pray for PKA to be a stronger body of Christ and that you will dwelt in each and everyone of Us.In Jesus' Name:Amen

''Stretch Your Heart For People''
Deuteronomy 4:31
For the LORD your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you or destroy you or forget the covenant with your fathers that he swore to them.
How does God view the world??What will he see if He look down upon this Earth that was created by Him?Malaysia?Australia?Africa?Chinese?Indian?Malays?
The answer....
''God will see people without political boundaries,countries,skin colours..No difference between races,nationalities...etc.''
''God will see people without political boundaries,countries,skin colours..No difference between races,nationalities...etc.''
Those are man-made divisions.
BUT,Jesus Christ died for ALL..for YOU and ME.
BUT,Jesus Christ died for ALL..for YOU and ME.
Do you even realise that Holy Spirit and God have already prepare the hearts of those people that He will use you to be the vessel?All He need is a vessel.Will you be the vessel?
''It's not the destination but the journey.''
It is not what you do for God that matter but it is HIM and the journey with HIM that matter the most.There are many people out there who don't even heard of ''Jesus''.Be a blessing.You are saved so that u can be a vessel to spread the Good News----To be saved by Jesus who died on the cross.
Isaiah 43:10(ESV)
“You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “and my servant whom I have chosen, that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he.
LET'S MAKE OUR GOD FAMOUS!!!
Matthew 28:19(ESV)
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
LET'S GO!!!!!!!
