WORDS
Pst Kong preached a good sermon today.
It really impacted me alot as I've been a distrustful person towards what people say.
I would chose not to believe in words, until it come to pass, rather than be stupidly discouraged thereafter.
I really had enough of broken promises and blatent lies!
Although after hearing the Word didn't change my distrustful attitude towards people, I learnt to examine myself to not fall into the category myself.
We often say, words can kill, be the man of your word, what you say you become, etc...
When we open our mouths to speak, we speak words to people around us and even to God.
We speak everyday of our lives, don't we?
That's how significant words are in our lives.
Be it a Christian or non-Christian, Man or Women.
What's more?
God is particular about His Word!
In pursuit to being Christ-like, we should be particular about our words as well.
5 Principles about God's Word
1. God's Word is the expression of His nature.
Jhn 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
What we say shows who we are.
If you use vulgur, it shows that you are a crude person.
2. God's word is the measure of His Character.
Mat 24:35
Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.
God in His Character will never fail.
What we say shows how much people can depend on us?
Ps 15:14
In whose eyes a vile person is despised,
But he honors those who fear the LORD;
He who swears to his own hurt and does not change
Even if it costs embaressment and inconvenience, the word swore will not change (integrity).
3. God's word is magnified above His name.
Ps 138:2
I will worship toward Your holy temple,
And praise Your name
For Your lovingkindness and Your truth;
For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.
Often we pray in God's name, as His name is greater than anything.
However, God deemed His word greater than ALL His name!
His name is as good as His Word.
4. God's word is the source of faith and the rule of conduct.
Rom 10:17
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
When we promise to do something, the person whom we promised has faith that we are going to do it.
When we do it, their faith increases and their rule of conduct becomes more positive towards us.
Likewise, when we don't do it, their faith decreases and their rule of conduct becomes more negative towards us.
Who can we blame?
5. God's word is His bond.
Heb 6:13
For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,
There's nothing that God can't do! Cos He is God.
The Word that He gave is good enough- the absolute irrevolcable.
Pro 20:25
It is a snare for a man to devote rashly something as holy,
And afterward to reconsider his vows.
Mat 5:37
But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.
Our bonds holds us accountable- a guaranteed deposit- trust.
Dear God,
I pray that you help me to forgive those who fail their promises in my life and also forgive me for those that I failed.
As you've said in
Luk 11:14
And forgive us our sins, For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.
I pray for reconcilation of relationships due to the failure in promises.
Help to learn to say know when I can't, learn to say yes when I can.
Let every decision made be unto you, I pray that if a yes I've said, you will help me pull through it even if it's of inconvenience and embarassment.
In Jesus mighty name, I pray.
AMEN!

Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life. Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism.
David M. Burns
To my sense of "wanting to do my best": I hope that won't turn into perfectionism. People make mistakes and they shouldn't be judged by "not doing their best". Their "best" might not be the same as mine. Still, I need to get over the fact about the frustration I get, when I just can't see the effort and the attitude when I'm already trying very hard to FIND it.
You can't choose how you feel, but you can choose how you deal with it.
Anonymous
To my disappointments: You are always there. The daily challenge of my life. I'm gonna deal with you somehow- not by running away or ignoring it. You are not gonna pull me down. Expectation management- Well, I can't not expect anything >.<
If people did not do silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
To that stupid "afraid to be pai say" feeling: Shoo! It all starts ugly! Doesn't it? If you wanna learn, why be afraid of having the humility to learn? It would be worth to be pai say now then to regret later (when you get too pai say to even take the first step).
The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you.
B.B. King
To my beloved Abba Father: Thank you for giving me the talent to learn and to understand easier than those who can't. Thank you for the opportunities to learn and the conviction to continue to be different. Thank you for helping me understand the beauty of learning:) I want to do it to the end, and I can't do it without You.

Fools for Christ
Context:
King David wanted to move the Ark of God to Jerusalam. While moving it, one of the the choice men of Israel, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it. Then the anger of the LORD was aroused against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by the ark of God. 8 And David became angry because of the LORD’s outbreak against Uzzah.
1 Sam 6: 14-16
14 Then David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was wearing a linen ephod.
15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Now as the ark of the LORD came into the City of David, Michal, Saul’s daughter, looked through a window and saw King David leaping and whirling before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
David, irregardless of his status as King, danced in public, with shouting and with the sound of music to bring in the ark of God into Jerusalam.
He looked like a fool in the eyes of Michal, Saul's daughter.
1 Sam 6:20
20 Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, “How glorious was the king of Israel today, uncovering himself today in the eyes of the maids of his servants, as one of the base fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!”
Many people around us are like Michal.
They deem us as foolish people and despise
1. Our effort to love, when we are rejected or not appreciated.
2. Our effort to try again and work hard, when we fail many times.
3. Our effort to dream, when we have nothing to our name.
4. Our effort to be faithful to God and the church, when they are out "enjoying" themselves.
BUT!
1 Cor 2:11
11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.
1 Sam 6:21-22
21 So David said to Michal, “It was before the LORD, who chose me instead of your father and all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel. Therefore I will play music before the LORD. 22 And I will be even more undignified than this, and will be humble in my own sight. But as for the maidservants of whom you have spoken, by them I will be held in honor.”
God has chose us to be different.
Deu 7:6
6 “For you are a holy people to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth.
1 Pet 2:9
But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;
So...
I encourage my fellow Christians to keep on and keeping on.
We are the difference, we can be, which Our creator made us to be.
Salt of the Earth, Light of the World.
