A lifestyle

Hi peeps! Wow Christmas is just around the corner, and the year has gone by so quickly! I will be going back to Malaysia on the 23rd (Tuesday), so this will probably be my last blog here in Melb for the year lol.

Apart from that, this thought of 'Christianity as a lifestyle' has been popping into my head tonnes lately. I know all these things we learn in church may seem perhaps 'obvious' or you may understand it already. That is good for a start, but look at applying it to your life; do you live it out? That is the most crucial part of all that teaching, or its utterly useless.

You may have heard this a million times already, about Christianity being a lifestyle, but all I really want you to take out of this is to make sure that your faith really is your lifestyle.

It saddens me how many times we hear messages at Church, and when the week progresses on, we seem to have completely forgotten all that stuff. We can't be 'Friday or Sunday Christians'; we have to behave in a consistent manner. If we only appear to be 'good' on certain days (perhaps when church is), I could hardly consider you a Christian. I myself need to closely watch everything I do, and make sure it reflects my faith.

When I say 'being a lifestyle', I mean that obeying Christ should be part of our 'second nature' or something like that; meaning that we should be so used to doing good works, that it is a habit.

Don't be a 'Friday Christian, be an 'everyday Christian'! Booyah!

hehe woah the weather forecast recently has been really un-reliable; but thats Good! So looks like the weekend is gonna be ok weather for once! :)

Cya! Keep on shining for God!

Unfailing love

Hiya guys =)

Before u read on, put ur speakers on full blast- i updated my playlist again hhaha.

I am sure we are often annoyed at when others let us down, and even if we let ourselves down at times. Of what I know of, there is only one person that I am sure will never let us down- that is God.

“There has not failed one word of all His good promise.” - 1 Kings 8:56

I still remember all the times that I endured mega-stress or worry. I was thinking it was nearly impossible to go through those situations and still have a positive outcome. I needed a miracle for things to work out well, and I got a miracle. Countless times, I was so stuffed, and I didn’t even notice that everything up to today has gone smoothly. I always put my trust and hope in God, and he has never failed me; his love is unfailing.

Every situation I was so worried about, God hid me safely under his comforting wings. He has NEVER EVER failed me- and I am sure about that. I was too worried that I didn’t even notice I was ok, and I really want to take this opportunity to give all the glory to God. He does indeed keep his promises. I just want to say, put ALL your faith and trust in God, and you definitely won’t regret it. Don’t doubt if he can pull you through the toughest of times, for it is pure faith that drives miracles. Try it, it works!

Oh yeh, for those who don’t read the bible much, I really recommend that you do. Because this verse says that God keeps his promises, so you would generally need to be aware of what his promises actually are before you will receive any of them. Know what God promises in your life, and claim them with faith.

Hope you are learning stuff from my blog =) Cya!

The Core of Christianity

Heya guys!
Haha i've noticed that I am starting to blog way less than I originally did haha. At one point I blogged more than once a day! =o !

(btw i forgot if i already blogged about this. Well if i did, i may aswell do it again ^^ )
This is what we live for; what we hope to achieve- it is the core of Christianity. Personally, I believe that, as Christians, it doesnt really matter how 'pure and sin-less' we are at the current state. When I say that, I dont mean its ok to be constantly full of sin, cause at one point, everyone was a sinner.

Christianity is all about change- transforming into a more mature and obedient person. This is called spiritual growth. Spiritual stagnance is something we should really hope not to have. Each and every day should be an opportunity for us to get closer to God. Of couse this will not happen if we do not constantly seek him, and have a desire to grow deeper in faith.

Nearly all my years of my life, I was hardly growing matured at all. Even up to 13, I was still as childish as a little kid. I may have mentioned this before, but my walk with God suddenly took off at hardcore pace when I started to go to Fungus and serve in sunday school ministry. That was about when I was 14. Two years later, I can gladly say that I am still seeking God with a burning passion, this time brighter.

Man that kidshaper song 'fly' keeps popping into my head. I wanna fly. I seriously do. I want to lift in faith and touch the sky. I want to go deeper than I have before. I wanna soar; I wanna fly!

Well I am gonna go sleep now! Christmas is coming soon! woot!

God bless!

=)

Weekend!

I gotta say the weekend was really busy. On friday I think I played soccer with some Fungus peeps. Oh yeh and poor Shaun had to watch us cause he is a cripple! xD

Sunday had to be my randomest day ever!
K firstly, we had church in the morning, and for some reallly realllllly weird reason, my bro thought it started at 10:30 instead of 9.30. lol so we waited for him to sleep for another hour, then we went to church :S !!! I walked into X-Cite one hour late, and luckily I didn't recieve too much beatings from the Kids pastor!!! *phew*!! yeh soz I was late :)

Church sermon!
I discovered something on Sunday- that taking notes during the message is really good! So i did :) The message was on the topic of Hope. It may seem un-important, but I realized how vital it is in Christianity. I learnt a couple of things:

Hope in todays terms is something like ‘possibility’. You say you ‘hope’ something will happen, but you are not exactly sure.

Hope in the bible’s terms is definite assurance. It clearly states that if you put your hope and trust in God, you will not be disgraced. I took notes of some bible passages too:

Psalms 146:5

"How blessed is he , whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God."

This says that if you put ur hope in God, you are secure and safe.

After Church:

After Church on Sunday, I decided to lose some weight and go running with the fit people at Rufly Lake Park. I think we ran something like 5km, and I gotta say it was pretty fun! I was ahead of the pack at first, then I pulled back. Hahha! Isaac (the tank) still overtook us, even though he took the longer route by! Woah!

Even after that mega long day, my bro and I invited some peeps over, so we kinda didn’t getta rest till midnight, but I wasn’t tired hehhe

This week is gonna be cool lol. On Friday I am going to Hamroll’s party, then playing soccer in the rain afterwards. Christmas is coming soon woot! On Sunday there is carols by glowstick-light at church! Hahah thats gonna be cool !

Anyway i gonna go for now. Cya guys!
