im back!
yeah! im back!! after a long time of mia-ing frm my blog haha! anw today i've listened to this podcast during my travelling time, Seeing And Hearing Again by pastor wayne!so basically wanna share some interesting things that i've learnt or heard from the podcast.-slipping away from God is never intentional(means u dun plan beforehand to slip away frm God or smth lidat.) but drawing back to God is definitely intentional!!! big AMEN to this!-what we look out for / expect would be what we find! for example you look for faults everywhere u go or u expect problems, then u would definitely find those throughout the whole day! therefore, if you look out / expect for God's work in ur life. u wud definitely be able to see more of God's work! its obvious rite? heh=)-we really make alot of stupid deals on wanting to be the person who claims their privellege to be correct. e.g. risk the chance of breaking out into a quarrel with a friend, just because we want to be right, whether or not u r in the right or wrong. we sometimes refuse to give way jus for the sake of wanting to be in the right so the cost would a sour-ed friendship or smth lidat. aint worth it at all haha.-without a heart of thanksgiving that give thanks to God in all circumstance. sooner or later, we won't be able to detect / recognize God's blessings in our lives.-it doesnt take intentionality to slip out of a heart of gratitude or thanksgiving. but it definitely takes intentionality to get it back!-when God is silent in our situations, He is not drifting away from us. but He is building something in us called commitment, which can only be built without the "feel-good" stuffs in our life. and its only when we face problems and struggles and decide that we still want to follow God and not give up then God is able to build commitment in us-commitment: following / doing something that is worth doing even after the emotions and feelings have died down.i definitely want a heart thats always soft to God's word! never want a hardened heart that will rob so many blessings from me! living everyday knowing God even more is definitely a life i want heh.prayer realli works more than just wonders! a few of us had gathered at church office for the past few days to pray for our groups and our ppl. and God is definitely moving as we prayed! and there were testimonies of hw God has moved in our grp and our ppl. amazing! when u pray more often, u get even more convicted the next time u pray again. and each time u pray, u grow in faith as well! man! praying has really nth to lose but much to gain! yeah! yep tts all for this post haha. cya!
