Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land.  And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” ~ Matthew 27:45-46 Ever wonder what was the feeling of God when His [...]


I am a Christian, since when I was 15.  I accepted Christ when a schoolmate shared with me about Christ daily while we were heading to school.  I only accepted my water baptism and baptism of Holy Spirit when I was 25.  So what happened in that span of 10 years?  I continued my faith [...]


In life, sometimes we forgot to thank God for a day that we are live.  Often we might have taken God for granted.  Although I am pretty discipline in reading His words and having my personal devotion on daily basis, but today’s incident of the road accident, I can only say and in fact I [...]


Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it, Proverbs 22:6. The context in Proverbs is child, not anyone.  Specifically a child.  It is utmost vital to train a child when he or she is young.  I remember a printing course sharing that shared, [...]


I like my weekend, more so I have more days off, thanks to Labor Day which is a public holiday in Malaysia, and probably many other places in the world. We spent the time pep-talking to our sons whom are going for their exam tomorrow.  These pep-talk took place at home, in the car, having [...]


This is the day that the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it. Praise the Lord, it’s our 12th anniversary. We have been together longer than that.  But to make that commitment to be with one another and continue to be one another, that is a real God’s grace and blessing. [...]


My colleague, Retna and I were at client’s place to clean up terrible mess left by one of the irresponsible partner, anyway, that mess is sorted and now not a problem, but an opportunity for us. While driving back, Retna and I talked a lot about our Christian life, our faith in God, what we [...]


Something which I have been struggling for few months, I finally put a stop to it. It’s hard for me to carry on a Godly task, which I never wanted to take on last year.  Before I carry on to the next year, I asked God if I can leave the task to someone else. [...]


As I am preparing my blog entry, our former Cambodian maid is already half way flying from Kuala Lumpur to Phnom Penh, Cambodia.  When I booked her flight ticket, I was tempted to intentionally-planning-to-screw-up her travel itinerary – perhaps entering the wrong passport or misspelled one of her name etc. Well, whatever she has done to [...]


After our yearly eyes examination, I have been told to wear the glasses when I am driving as well as working in front of computers.  I used to wear the glasses few years ago, until I thought I have a better a vision after attending a sermon by then Pastor Daniel Singh, when he said, [...]


I am not an expert of daily devotion. Doing daily devotion, reading God’s word is an important routine of Christian.  However, because many things influencing or rather taking our time away from God, we seldom able to read, and communicate with Him well. Psalm 119:105 > Your word is a lamp to my feet and [...]


Reading Proverbs 1:8-19 this morning, the first verse that spoke to me:- Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.  ~ Proverbs 1:8 Very often the parenting is looking on father for the teaching, but Proverbs has reminded us that the teaching from mother is equally important.  Although in [...]


We went to Singapore on Monday.  It was supposed to be a trip to Singapore Zoo, National Science Centre for Elijah, Ariel and Inez.  However, they did not come with us to Singapore, because when they met the rest of their cousins at grandmother’s home in the morning, they changed their mind.  They wanted to [...]


When I was doing my daily devotion yesterday, I could not do it in the SOAP method, because none of the passage spoke to me.  I must be honest with God, can’t just a passage and so be it. Today, when I read 1 Samuel 26, David again spared Saul’s life. In 1 Samuel 26:11, [...]


It is interesting to read the Bible.  Well, for Christians, it is the Word of God that shines our path & it is His words that encourages us when we are down, to guide us when we seek help, and of course shaping our life, how we should be. Reading 1 Samuel, besides learning how [...]


公说公有理,婆说婆有理。 Ever been in a situation that both parties have something to say, and after they have said what was in their mind, we could not have any solution because neither party wants to come to solution.  Quite often in a case of church raid, many non-Christians are watching how a Christian will react to [...]


A retreat pretty planned for some time.  Like a year or more, but never take place.  Many factors – timing, venues as well as it is really hard to have everyone together, at the same time. Praise the Lord, we did it, despite many challenges that Retna and I faced which would have crippled our [...]


Reading Ephesians in preparation of our home fellowship retreat is truly a God’s given joy and blessing. I read Ephesians 5:8-14 this morning, God is telling us not to hide the darkness, rather expose it.  God does not just wants us to expose it and stop there, but He gives even better things, He gives [...]


Ephesians 3:13 speaks that, “Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.” I could not imagine what has happened to Inez in that 2 hours but I for sure know that God has protected her. She came home safely. I remember sermon preached by Senior [...]


God’s timing. 1 For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles— 2 if indeed you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you, 3 how that by revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I have briefly written already, 4 by which, [...]


Reading Senator Anthony Weiner (Democrat, New York) and potential candidate for the running of New York Mayor, just been hit by the sex scandal, i.e. Twitter relation with 6 women.  Although he claimed that no physical relationship involved, but I remember reading Matthew 5:28, “But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman [...]


Done my morning devotion on Nehemiah chapter 4 and decided to have a short walk with Jackie dog.  But was reminded of 2 important work tasks to be completed, so I did that first.  By the time when I am done, Elijah was standing in front of me, asking if I will be going for [...]


Seriously, I am not too sure what is going on with the two sons.  If the school is complaining about their attitudes, I have met their schoolmates which are too harder to handle.  So why them? Received a call from the school discipline teacher yesterday about one of the son.  All the things the school [...]


I am just not too sure when was told to finish the entire Bible as part of the requirement of the deputy leader of Cinnamon Home Fellowship.  Just to clarify, I did not nominate myself nor promote myself for the leadership, Poh Beng nominated me for the task, I took it after God gave me [...]


Past few weeks, my conversation with the church members, friends as well as clients have been on ego.  According to the dictionary, ego is a person’s sense of self-esteem or self-importance, an overly high opinion of onself. I remember attending one of the John Rosemond’s Parenting by the Book course that illustrated the differences between [...]
