Got so busy...

The ways of the world have gotten me so busy lately..

And I kinda missed the Lord...missed u Jesus.

Please don't go so far from me..Let me feel your presence

for the world has weaken and exhausted me.

Yeah. I had so much fun. But you know how it is.

In me...it is just You who can satisfy my cravings.

Let me draw strength from You know and let it refresh me.

(takes a deep breath. Drawing air from Jesus.)

Got a lot of things to share but for now, let me sleep for awhile.

I love you..Jesus.

Thank you for everything...:)

Happiness is Freedom!

I used to Google "How to find REAL happiness" a lot.
Hoping I'd find the answers somewhere like on my emails or even on Facebook.

Heheh!
Happiness is elusive, don't you think?

Sometimes, you got hold of it and just hope that it would lasts..

Sad to say..while you're in this world ..it does not.

(Unless of course, You try to shift and change your mind a little bit.
Tweak your faith and follow the right PERSON.)

I used to think having all the things that I wanted will come
to shut me off.

Get a good career, have lotsa of money, go anywhere, have a life.

Pathetic huh?

If you think on the worldly, natural way..well, happiness is indeed everywhere.

Obviously, it comes totally in different packages.Depending on how you percieve
and imagine it would be.

Chillin out in Starbucks having your fave cuppa is Happiness..

Shopping till you drop is happiness.

Clubbing is happiness.

Having a great dinner with someone special and being romantic is happiness.

Spending a holiday on the beach is happiness.

Getting that macbook pro and iphone is happiness.




The list is endless.



Partly, I have been there.

Done that!

(There's one thing that I'm curious about though.
Like if having that Lamborghini would make a lot of difference. Lolx.We will see.)


Well, there's one thing that I'm REALY sure of...

The above which I've mentioned have only one common denominator.

That is.

They are all...

T E M PO R A R Y....



It's not lasting.

It doesn't stay with you for long.


At the end of the day, when you are most alone, you find yourself facing a
blank wall. Trying to figure things out. Ask so many "whys","hows"and "what ifs".
Searching for more.


Some will accept it and just say "This is life!" and start to do things all over again. In cycle. Leaving with nothing but unsatisfaction and an impending doom.

Others will seek more wisdom from almost on anything. Books, religion, etc.


Me?

For years, I have come to level up my so-called "happiness" and have stopped
associating it with worldy stuffs.

For me, happiness is FREEDOM!


Freedom from all pains, sickness, stress, confusions, boredom and poverty!



When you are free from all these..or even just one of these... Woow!
It is when you start living! For real! Without worries and all.

Amazing isn't it?



..to be con't.

Seeing ugly me draws me closer to Jesus

The more I fall unto sin and see the ugliness in me.. the more I see
and feel the great love of Jesus has for me.

It's amazing. How one man can sacrifice Himself for someone, a nobody - like me.
Saving me from hell and giving me LIFE at its truest, fullest sense.

Yes, without Jesus, I'm a total wreak!

I could turn around many times twisting my own fate..playing on it everytime.
Enjoying temporary self-gratification... For whatever.

That's the power of Choice!

I choose what I think is better for me to do.

I choose to be in this state.

I choose to be where I am.


But above it all.

I choose to be with Him.

Because in Him ..I am filtered. I am protected. And blessed.

I thank you Jesus, for dying for me on the cross.

Let me praise you in my own ways...

...I will get there.

It's about Him...

Everytime I feel depress or sad about something or over a situation.
I just listen to God's songs...
While hearing them...a realisation takes place.

It's not about my heartaches, pains,hatred over someone
and struggles in life that matter anymore...

It's Him.. It's Him on the cross.

Yeah , it's just HIm...

As I keep thinking of it that way...feeling of Peace fills my soul.
PEACE that no one in this world can fathom..

It's just beautiful..
And I wana do it all over again.

Ten Rules for Being Human

Ten Rules for Being Human
by Cherie Carter-Scott

1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period.
2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life."
3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work."
4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.
5. Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.
6. "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."
7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.
8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
10. You will forget all this.

Sometimes I Hide By: Amber Riebe

Got this nice message from my Facebook friend, Amber.
BUt I just need to tweak the title a little bit...as for me..
I always run to Jesus 24/7...no matter what.
Read on...and may this have a revelation to your current situation too.
Whatever it is whether heartache,financial setback,sickness,boredom or depression.



Sometimes this life is too much for me.
and it’s all I can do just to breathe.
Sometimes the wind blows way too strong
and I feel like I’m barely hanging on.
Sometimes this life drags me down
and it’s all I can do just to crawl around.
Sometimes Your plans are so hard to see
and I feel the walls of life caving in on me.

When everything becomes too much
and this road I’m on becomes too rough
I feel the stress rising like the tide
So I run from it all…and I hide.

Sometimes this road seems too long
and I find that the way I thought was right, is wrong.
Sometimes the pressure of life is more than I can take
and I feel like I’m walking a tightrope that’s about to break.
Sometimes it takes all my strength just to pray
and I don’t know if I can make it through another day.
Sometimes I just stop and fall to my knees
and it feels like no one’s standing up for me.

When everything becomes too much
and this road I’m on becomes too rough
I feel the stress rising like the tide
So I run from it all…and I hide.

Sometimes the waters are just too high.
And when I look over the ocean I fall apart inside.
Sometimes I think I only want You to hold my hand
but You pull me to my feet and help me stand.
Sometimes in the midst of my trouble I smile
and people wonder why.
But I know it’s because when life becomes too much,
in You I hide.

When everything becomes too much
and this road I’m on becomes too rough
I feel the stress rising like the tide
So I run from it all…and I hide.

Sometimes I’m not sure what to do
and all I can do is run to You.
Sometimes by my fears I’m chased
so I run to You ‘cause You’re my hiding place.
Sometimes I feel my life begin to crumble
so I hide in You and You preserve me from my trouble.
You help me through every circumstance
and You surround me with songs of deliverance.

When everything becomes too much
and this road I’m on becomes too rough
I feel the stress rising like the tide
So I run from it all…and I hide.

When I just can’t figure out what to do
I give up on myself and I turn to You.
When the mountain of trouble is too high to climb
I don’t even try, instead I hide.

You are the place I go to hide.
You draw me in and bring me close to Your side.
Sometimes people ask why I smile when I should cry
and I tell them, “sometimes I hide.”
You’re the reason why I make it through,
I prevail over my troubles because I hide in You.
Jesus, I know the only reason why…
is because in You is where I hide.
