Who Told You That?


<祷告>




As the worse presenter of the night yesterday, no doubt I...

felt defeated.
felt upset.
felt disappointed.
...

Questions like why am i still giving this kind of standard until now and why I cannot even bring what I want to say across, etc, came into my mind.

However, I felt so much relieved after sharing with my beloved Sister, Josephine, about how exactly I felt.

She understands it all because she went through the exact same stage I am in now, and that of a even greater measure.

Thanks for all your words of encouragement and your prayer. I will press on, no matter what, in Him. I guess I am only human. =) I do have my down times too. However, I thank God that I am past the mountain of backsliding. No matter what, I will press on. I will stick on with Him no matter what!

Ken, thanks for your encouraging SMS too. Really appreciate it even if it may not seem so. =)

Xianbi, you are the encouraging one! Felt so encouraged as I read your this post. Thanks so much!

Many times we think we are weak or are constantly restricted by our limitations and we forget who we are in Christ. Have you ever wondered who told you that you are weak? "Who told you that you couldn't make it?" "Who told you that you are not pretty enough?"wasn't God. It was never God.

But yet we allow ourselves and talk ourselves into thinking these ways. And because we are already defeated in the spirit and mind we are defeated also in the flesh. So the next time you feel discourage because of something, ask yourself what God ask Adam. "who told you that?" Yearn for that encounter. It's what that keeps me on and what that will keep you on too.

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the LORD, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the LORD, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive."
Jeremiah 29:11-14



This was exactly the reminder which I need!

This is my stepping stone to become someone of more confidence! My confidence comes from the Lord. ;)

I will build, and keep on building in this area.

3 CHEERS TO ISABEL, HUIZHEN AND JESSICA and all other teams!

You guys did a great great job!! =)

*pats off all the disappointments and says: devil, you won't have it your way!

Isaiah 40:31

"but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint."

Relationship

credits : x the 701th post... opps.. totally didn't realize that it is already nearly a month ago since I last blogged; abt AC 2010... since this is the 701th post, let me blog about something a tad more interesting. (ya right, just an excuse lah. HAHA!) Okay, great... i do not know how to start... but still, i know i got to start it somewhere. 4 to 5 years back when Jo was around my age now shared with me that the topic of conversations is surrounded with the word 'Relationship'. Being an innocent young girl (which i self declared to be, still, HAHAH!!), i didn't know or feel the impact until i actually experience it. Friends will start to ask 'when, when'? or 'Jas, what kinda guy are you looking for', etc etc. Honestly speaking, i was almost totally clueless when these questions was first posted to me... and it was then that i started to think of the 'criteria' I look for in a BF/partner. Let me now share some of them... :) 1) He must be in CHC...

thoughts

beyond the smiles, the laughter and perhaps idk, the strong and courageous girl you see is this part of me who is sad and discouraged. who tears. I do not know where to start and had tried a few times to blog about this, and then finding myself pressing the "X" button. so i will just share exactly how I feel now... you know, it is not easy. to see myself having ezcema. it is hard. to see new spots infected by it. it is terrible to find out occasionally after waking up from sleep that your own fingers, yes, are the 'killer'. all those times of unknowingly itch being attended by them. The spot of blood. the fact that i no longer can wear short skirts and what not. the fact that the scars are so easily visible. Hideous scars. the fact that it got so terrible that two of my colleagues actually asked if i had a fall. it sure did looked like it and i don't blame them a single bit. adding on is my knees who is generally weak as compared to that as a normal person. the ...
