THE SERVANT KING

From heaven You came, helpless babe
Entered our world, Your glory veiled
Not to be served but to serve
And give Your life that we might live

This is our God, the SERVANT KING
He calls us now to follow Him
To bring our lives as a daily offering
Of worship to the SERVANT KING

There in the garden of tears
My heavy load He chose to bear
His heart with sorrow was torn
Yet not my will, but Yours he said

Come see His hands and his feet
The scars that speak of sacrifice
Hands that flung stars into space
To cruel nails surrendered

So let us learn how to serve
And in our lives enthrone Him
Each other's needs to prefer
For it is Christ we're serving

Majesty

MAJESTY

Here i am
humbled by Your majesty
covered by Your grace so free

Here i am
knowing i am sinful man
covered by the blood of the Lamb

Bridge:
Now i've found
the greatest love of all is mine
since you laid down your life
the greatest sacrifice

chorus:
Majesty, majesty
Your grace has found me just as i am
empty handed but alive in Your hands

Majesty, majesty
forever i am changed by your love
in the presence of Your majesty

here i am
humbled by the love that you give
forgiven so that i can forgive
here i stand
knowing i am your desire
sanctified by glory and fire

goto bridge..

This is my prayer - i can simply live for my God, my Lord, my savior...

I simply live for you!
Say the word, and I will sing for You
Over oceans deep I will follow
If each star was a song
And every breath of wind praise
It would still fail by far to say
All my heart contains
I simply live, I simply live for You

As the glory of Your presence now fills this place
In worshiping we’ll meet You face to face
There is nothing in this world to which
You can be compared
Glory on glory, praise upon praise
You bind the brokenhearted and save all my tears
By Your Word You set the captives free
There is nothing in this world that You
cannot do
I simply live, I simply live for You

Isa 49:15-16, In God's Hands
The Lord says, "Can a woman forget her nursing child, or show no compassion for the child of her womb? Even they may forget, yet i will not forget you. See I have inscribed you on the palms of my hands."

Dear God, thank you for the gift of life. Help me to live each day knowing that you hold us in your hands. Amen

When we feel inadequate and overwhelmed, God is especially close to us.

Matt 14: 22-33, Lord save me
Why was Peter sinking? In a similiar vein, why do we falter and sink when faced with adversity in spite of the fact that Christ is with us? Peter looked away from Jesus and saw only the waves that surrounded him. Like him, we may focus on our immediate circumstances and look away from Christ. We may not see with eyes of faith. We look to God to grant us faith so that we can keep our eyes on Christ and face life's challenges without fear, confident that God is always with us.

Loving God, may we always look to you for guidance. What we focus on determines whether we will be able to stand.

John 14: 15-27, Peace in Chaos
He is named Wonderful counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
I thought about what happened today. I may feel disturbed cos ppl are just insensitive tour feeling and need, and they may just think of themselves first. How they feel upset by me. In me, I feel v guilty. I hv ppl feeling, i am at fault...but this is not what i want to see it happened. Should i also get my justice back by telling my bxxx. if i dont clarify what will happen? bxxx thinks that i am incapable.. if that is the case, so be it... ppl asked me not to mention it to bxxx. what should i do?
i think it's ok...afterall what is so big deal by not telling my bxxx. i want to let the matter rest...
The Lord is my peace that guard my heart, and i dont want my heart to be troubled.

Dear Lord, help us to open our hearts to your peace so that there is no place for worry.

INDEBTED
Romans 1:8-17

Father, keep me faithful
Father, keep me grateful
This is my prayer everyday
Father, keep me serving,
Father, keep me telling
of your love wherever i go

YOU GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO EAT (06.04.07) - Good Friday
THEIR EYES ARE OPENED AND THEY RECOGNISED HIM (08.04.07) - Easter Sunday

I can be an instrument to bring blessing to others and make an influence.
I believe...
But do i wanna let God use me for his glory?
or do i still hear it and not respond to it?
again, i hv a choice

Do i see the Lord and recognise him?
Or am i still so slow in recognising him in my life or at my work place?

Lord, help me to be convicted by your words
and i can respond to your call today.
Lord give me the strength as you are God
help me to trust and obey.

hello... i m back !!!

will update the blog ..

my blog is not working... it wont display...
is the blog dead?

i am inspired by today's message...

i wanna put them into practice.... do remind me if you happen to see me and rmb wat i post here... thank you friend.. heehee..
i found the sermon inspiring, and i realli love it and i wanna share wif u guys.
i hope i can rmb and do it just like Jesus did.

Lord, help me to socialise with the outcast, help me to reach out to those who are rejected by the society... help me to be where you will be.
Say is easier than done... Lord, i need you, help me not to live with regrets...

today sermon title is "will u eat with them?"
the preacher mentioned 3 points:
1. Jesus understands God's heart for the lost.
2. Jesus embraces God's calling and fulfill it wholeheartedly.
3. Jesus knows the true meaning of compassion.

the preacher left with us 3 questions, i thk they could be a gentle reminder for me.
1. Do we understand God's heart for the lost?
2. Do we embrace God's calling?
3. Do we know the true meaning of compassion?

Your peace that guard my heart... your gift of PEACE is just timely

u know sth, i appreciate my centre manager very much. though i am a new staff, she sent me for training course. u know i am attending the "Management of Family Violence" course... phew ... it was such a helpful and beneficial course for me. i realli needed it badly bcos i m oso handling family violence cases.

during this 3 full days, i feel like i am just having honeymoon, NO work stress, No cases assigned to me... cos my centre manager requested the admin staff not to assign cases when we go for course as we will not be able to respond to our clients within 3 days. i am thankful that my manager has a sensitive heart and reacted timely... thank you Lord... can u imagine i wanted very much to send an email to her to make an request that morning, but i deleted the email that morning, and u know wat happened, i rec'd my manager 's email at nite which is exactly the desire that i wanted. i was sooo happy that God has blessed me thru my manager's response.... i wanna testify God's goodness that was showered upon me this week... thank you Lord... may i cont to be your channel of blessing ... amen..

tired but was fun. din realli get sun burn...sigh. the gathering was good la. 16 ppl turned up. enjoyed quite a lot under the sun... think it's good to hv some outdoor sport once a while ... heehee...

Refreshing words if we believe in it...

I just like these verses very much bcos they encouraged me and i sense the presence of God enbracing me.

Ps 19:7 The LAW (words) of the Lord is perfect, REVIVING the soul.

Joshua 1:6-9
Be strong and courageous, bcos u will lead these ppl to inherit the land.... be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave u, do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever u go. Do not let this book of the Law depart from your mouth: MEDITATE on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Have i not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified, do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you forever you go.

like what pastor andrew peh has explained abt these 2 words:
Prosperous - To advance, and be victorious. Not in terms of material sense.
Successful - not measured by our possession, but it is becoming wise, prudent and insightful.

Give the word of God opportunity to INFORM your life: MEMORISE it.
Give the word of God opportunity to TRANSFORM your life: MEDITATE on it.

Today pastor Andrew Peh came and shared about meditating God's words.
