Prophesying

Just came back from a church seminar,
the pastor was Indian and apparently is the prophesying type.

Just googled him (not gonna mention his name here),
apparently he does have a fair few prophesies on the net.
not gonna check them out now cause its not important.

Main theme was about walking or being with God.
Being able to listen to what God says (hence prophesying/healing/etc).

End of talk he prayed/prophesied to every individual in the room.
Some hearts were moved,
some souls were mended,
some eyes were wet.
It was a remarkable scene.

For me, can’t remember the exact words,
but the gist of it is…

I’ve been running around in circles getting nowhere…
there’s plans and ideas (business) but cannot realize them.
this year I’m gonna make it happen.

Its a bit eerie because I did had some ideas and plans but they never did work out.
I guess knowing whats going on in one’s life is just simply helping one see better of one’s situation.
It is still up to the person to take the initiative.
He can obviously bless someone,
but in the end, if the ‘blessed’ does not have a willing heart to change,
it is still useless.

Dear Lord,
Grant us child-like faith,
so that we can open up our hearts to You,
and accept Your guidance in our life.
Amen.

Leap of Faith

Sometimes when we feel that we are at a dead end,
we need to trust and believe in God,
and make that leap of faith.

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." - Jeremiah 29:11

诱惑

有谁可以说他可以抵挡诱惑?
我想只有经得起诱惑的人吧!

没经历过诱惑的,不可能知道自己经不经得起。
经历了诱惑,抵挡了诱惑,
才知道自己的抵抗力。

不是说,没经历过诱惑的,
就要去寻找诱惑,测量自己对诱惑的抵抗力。
反而,应该尽量远离避开诱惑,
免得自食其果,伤了身边的人,后悔莫及。

傻人,傻福

有时做个傻人也不错,
没有忧虑,没有顾忌,
没有烦恼,没有畏惧,
天真烂漫,天真无邪,
就是这样才有傻福。

我想做人该以傻人为学习榜样,
不是学习他们的傻,
而是学习他们的天真烂漫无邪,
他们的单纯无私,
这样才会有福气吧!

不完美

如果, 我没有你想象中完美, 你还会喜欢我吗?

在男人眼里,我想情人都是完美的吧!
尽管情人如何的不完美,都会被爱包容或蒙蔽了。

没有人是完美的,没有人有资格要求对方完美。
女人说:如果,我没有你想象中完美,你还会喜欢我吗?
男人说:会的。

The Right Answers?

Gal - I don't wanna complicate your life.
Guy - No, I want all the complication you got.
Gal - Maybe you should go.
Guy - Maybe you should stay.

Following Your Heart

The saying goes... 'follow your heart'..

I suppose this is a good saying,
but it doesn't necessarily lead to fairytale-like happy endings.
When our conscience intrudes,
I guess that's when we should follow our conscience instead.
'Follow your heart' can become our biggest excuse or reason to hurt others, the ones we love, and also ourselves.

After all,
our conscience is God-given.
Conscience will always tell the truth,
(perverted mentality excluded)
following it will never go wrong.

They say 'follow your heart',
I say 'follow your conscience'.

The Secret

[The Secret] is basically a new age self-help book claiming it holds the 'secret' of the universe. In a nutshell, the secret is about harnessing the huge potential of our mind to get us whatever we want (calling this the 'law of attraction').

Is this really the Secret?
Personally I think its a blend of truths and falsehoods.
It has one of the biggest truth in it but it also blends in the biggest falsehood or sin there is.
Of course there's some truths in it.
That's what makes it persuasive and believable.
But how much truths and which are truths are up to the reader to find out.

Don't believe something because it is different,
or cool, or easy, or unique, etc.
Believe simply because it is the Truth.

笨女人

友人甲说女人真笨。
明知吃亏牺牲也心甘情愿,死心塌地。

男人知道友人甲的弱点。
就善加利用,详细过程不方便在此叙述。
友人甲明知如此,也只埋怨自己笨。
但说了嘴角还挂着一丝甜甜的微笑。

我对友人乙说了。
友人乙说女人恋爱中IQ最少减低一半。
让我想起李紋‘美丽笨女人’这首歌。

其实何止女人笨。
男人有时也很笨。
一段感情里有笨女人,聪明男人;
但也有笨男人,聪明女人。
我想只要一方懂得珍惜保护另一方的天真‘愚笨’,
那过程结局一定十分完美美丽。
当然,如果有两个笨男人笨女人在一起会更好吧!
