REAL HOPE from hopelessness.

We lost. It felt like hope was gone. Seriously. For a minute there, I really felt like crying. But I was in my friend's house and I held it in. My heart and dreams seemed to shatter into pieces. Suddenly there were rumors about new boxes of ballot papers coming in. What was told about the opposition winning was gone in just one hour of recounting. That was all. One hour of recounting demolished the hope and dreams we waited since 8pm.I cried and prayed to God. Talked to my friends on 'Whatsapp', expressed my dissatisfaction. Psalm 91: 2 : I will say of the Lord, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; My God in Him I trust.' came to me. Held on to the verse and went to sleep with a prayer. And yet, when I woke up I saw some articles, posts and comments on Facebook that made me boiled inside of me. How injustices just happened in front of me? How corrupted this country? How I was really angry inside of me that this is the government that going to rule the country? How long will it be till the next election? How can this happened? Why did the evil prevails? How can hope become hopeless in such a short time?
I thought to myself so long. I am dwelling in my hopelessness and my anger towards injustices that I am blinded that I still got a GOD, that is the LORD of this nation. I remembered praying before election that no matter what will the result be, I shall rest in HIM. But where is my rest? One day of dwelling in sadness is enough. I told myself that I will move on from this. Picking up the broken pieces and march towards the justice, free and fair election that my God is planting.
And thinking back of what I've asked.
Yes , injustices happens but my God is a GOD of JUSTICE . He will not stand still and not do something. He is doing something big for this country. His time is always right. And I will have to learn to submit unto His timing. Yes, this country is corrupted but you are not, Fong Wan. You shall not dwell in anger and curse with negative words that are ungodly.Yes, you can be angry with the government, but they are still your government . Learn to respect the authority.Yes, next five years seem like a long way to go but please prepare yourself while anticipating for the next election. Don't give up! NO, Evil doesn't prevail. You are wrong. God prevails. His goodness prevails. Yes, hope become hopelessness in a short time but hopelessness can turn into hope in long time too.
I only waited for 4 hours to witness my hope being crashed but some leaders waited so long. The people of Israelites waited for so long too before Jesus, the Messiah, came. God knows what HE is doing. :)
Time to rise, people. Our country, Malaysia still needs us to fight for her. With that, I carved in my heart 'I still love nation and will not give up because God loves this nation and He is not giving up on this nation. If He did not, neither should I.' The biggest lesson I learned is to place my hope not in men, but GOD.
And in fact, we won. We won because our votes are clean. We won because we are upright. We won because we stood united. We won because our love for this nation. We won because we did not give up. And because of that, we won the real honest victory.
Indeed, I will say of the Lord, 'He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God in Him I trust.'
My God in Him I trust.'

What touches me the most.
POSTED ON: 30 April 2013 @ 2:37 PM | 1 comments
What touches me the most is not the promises the opposition had made,
Neither the determination of bringing down another party.
But what touches me the most is how determine WE are ; young and old,
To strive,
To go all out,
Even under the pouring rain.
What touches me,
is the realisation that we can stand strong and united,
to stand for what is true and right,
to cry out for justice that was not served,
for the dead that cannot speak,
for the weak that being trampled on,
for the poor that deserve sympathy,
for the voice that cannot be heard.
What touches me,
Is the spirit to march on,
With all that we have,
Even with the fear , the worries and the uncertainties,
Knowing that we are the agent of change,
for this beloved country.
What touches me,
Is that we are marching on,
Step by step
Toward transformation and betterment,
because of the love WE have for this country, MALAYSIA.
and THAT...touches me the most.
:')

The BEST!!!

Giving your BEST to God.
This is my quote that going to stay with me for this week or till I learn to apply this in my life. I learnt that I have been taking this life for granted, always finding excuses for myself to do what is Second best. I am delightful that I am finally grasping this truth that in whatever and no matter what I do, I shall do my BEST for Him. It will save a lot of procrastination, time and not taking things for granted. I don't want to serve half-heartedly and live my life not as a champion. I want to live my as a champion for God, to win for Him, to serve Him in everything I do...I shall do my very BEST..!
Colossians 22-25: Servants, do what you’re told by your earthly masters. And don’t just do the minimum that will get you by. Do your best. Work from the heart for your real Master, for God, confident that you’ll get paid in full when you come into your inheritance. Keep in mind always that the ultimate Master you’re serving is Christ. The sullen servant who does shoddy work will be held responsible. Being a follower of Jesus doesn't cover up bad work. (P/S: I love the MSG translation)

God is not only watching over us and acting on our behalf, but He is REJOICING even though we don't know or see it. It is like someone throwing a party in your favour even though you are not there.
Jared Anderson
This is how beautiful our God, how compassionate and how loving He is for you. I can't wait the day I will be in heaven partying with Him and know that I have finish the race with joyful smile of His face.
For now,
I'll be faithful till death so that My Heavenly Father will give me crown of life. ( in ref. of Rev 2:10).
My country, Malaysia.

Remembered it was in the PLAN 11 back in 2011 that I sang Malaysia anthem, Negaraku with full of love and dedication that declares Malaysia is my country and I love Malaysia for the first time.
Jesus loves Malaysia. My God loves Malaysia and its people.
And because of that, I will not sit still , being feared and not do anything. I will continue to march on with all I have to stand strong in Him and with Him for this upcoming election. If you ask me honestly 'Why change the government?'. It is not because they ruled too long but because I want OUR voices to be heard. It doesn't matter who rules the country but I want a government that listen to the cries of his people and to sit down with his people and take time to do what is BEST for his people.
It is not because of the race differences, not because of the religion differences, not because the historical background differences..it is because it falls to only one thing , we are all HUMAN and we deserve all the equal rights and privilege as human.
The leaders that I hope and pray for is the leader that will think of his people, love his people and would even sacrifice himself for his people despite whoever and which race because that is the leaders that will put his people first.
I remembered watching Lincoln (Abraham Lincoln biography movie), with his famous quote 'Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth.'. He managed to lived this quote by breaking the chain of American African being the slaves. He even sacrifice his sleep to think of the way to use all he can to stop the Whites from using the Blacks as slaves. He stood for equal right even though he , himself is a white. Today, Barack Obama is the first American African President and yes , it came from a long way since 1861. But it is all worth it, isn't it? Because everyone deserve to be treated Human with the same rights, truth, love and attention and care.
In this crucial time, let's us not sit at our comfort seat and watch these things that happens around and do nothing about it. Simple things such as pray unceasingly for our beloved nation, share the information that it is important is more than enough. Walk the talk!
Greater things are yet to come if all of us do our part as Malaysians. Don't look away. Change yourself too if you want the change in Malaysia. The future generation depends on you too. You too , can make a difference in this country starting today.
' I don't stand at white's side. I don't stand at black's side. I stand at God's side.' (Bob Marley)
'I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.' (Abraham Lincoln)
'Be a good citizen. All governments are under God. Insofar as there is peace and order, it’s God’s order. So live responsibly as a citizen.' (Roman 13:1; Message Translation)

Packing Process
POSTED ON: 17 April 2013 @ 12:54 AM | 0 comments
'When you travel to another destination, you don't bring EVERYTHING with you. You pack what is the most ESSENTIAL to bring with you to the other place. Not because you don't want, but because you can't. Too many load , it makes it hard for one to travel.'
I heard that from a wise woman about closing a chapter in your life before sailing to the next one. So, who do you want to bring , to journey along with you for the rest of your life? Why? Is it mutual in thought, action , understanding and love? What values that you want to keep that you've learnt and what do you want to throw?
Think about it. :) Let God be your guide. *smile*
