Good Friday Reflection

Good - In the book of Genesis, the Lord said, "It is good." each time He took a step back and looked at the creations that he had completed. Is there goodness in every situation that we have entrusted to God and working for God?

Friday - Friday is here but Sunday is coming! There is hope for the coming of Christ, His resurrection will bring us hope.

Resurrection - We visit the graveyards of our loved ones who are asleep in the Lord and gone before us to be with the Lord. The visit is clearly not for the- dead, for they are in a better place and have no more worries on this earth, but such visit is for those who are alive and need a reminder that life is mortal and yet resurrection is coming one day.

Jesus Paid it All - re-sung by Newsboys in a faster tempo.

1. I hear the Savior say,
   “Thy strength indeed is small;
   Child of weakness, watch and pray,
   Find in Me thine all in all.”
   • Refrain:
     Jesus paid it all,
     All to Him I owe;
     Sin had left a crimson stain,
     He washed it white as snow.
2. For nothing good have I
   Whereby Thy grace to claim;
   I’ll wash my garments white
   In the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb.
3. And now complete in Him,
   My robe, His righteousness,
   Close sheltered ’neath His side,
   I am divinely blest.
4. Lord, now indeed I find
   Thy pow’r, and Thine alone,
   Can change the *leper’s spots [*leopard’s]
   And melt the heart of stone.
5. When from my dying bed
   My ransomed soul shall rise,
   “Jesus died my soul to save,”
   Shall rend the vaulted skies.
6. And when before the throne
   I stand in Him complete,
   I’ll lay my trophies down,
   All down at Jesus’ feet.

Maundy Thursday

Good Morning, Holy Spirit

This morning at church service, we sang the song "Through it all" by Hillsong. 

You are forever in my life You see me through the seasons Cover me with Your hand And lead me in Your righteousness And I look to You And I wait on You I'll sing to You Lord A hymn of Love For Your faithfulness to me I'm carried in everlasting arms You'll never let me go Through it all Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah

This song touched my heart today as I just learnt about Holy Spirit over the weekend. I have often neglected this third person of the Trinity Godhead. I have much to learn and I am really sorry for my ignorance.  I decided to sing to the Holy Spirit within me. I started weeping and realised the Spirit within was weeping too. It is a small awakening!

Discipleship Journey 2018 - Part 2

Chewing and Thinking:-

1. Radical Discipleship is all about Christ, Character and Calling, this is the central message of Radical Discipleship. Yes indeed, they are the 3 C of Radical Discipleship.
2. Yes, I would love to have this Big Three C as my journey compass, with Christ in my vessel, with the Holy Spirit as compass to steer ny vessel, I can build up my characters and fulfill my calling by the Lord.

Chewing and Thinking:-

1. The 4 Cs - Consumerism, Carnality, Compulsiveness and Conformity are inherent within my carnal man and the arguing with my spiritual inner man all the time. It is so easy to give in and follow the ways of the world. They challenge every step of our dicsipleship calling and discipline.
2. In order to counter the 4 Cs, we need to cultivate Surrender, Personal Discipline and Empowerment of the Spirit, so that authentic discipleship can occur. To me, the hardest one will be Personal Discipline follows by Surrender. Cultivating spiritual discipline is not something that will happen without works and discipline. 

Chewing and Thinking:-

1. Jesus discipled his disciples from fishermen to become a committed and radical disciples. He cause them to transform with His own life. They observed and saw how he operated and they became like Him.
2. My personal encountering experiences with the Lord are many but they could be rather spontaneous at times. Although not consistent, I still have a desire to encounter Him more in my life and being to be transformed.
