It's so good to be found in God's love again.

Today I want to thank God for the Holy Spirit.

Today is pentecost Sunday. 50 Days after jesus rose from His grave. Ten days after Jesus ascended into heaven, the twelve apostles, Jesus' mother and family, and many other of His disciples gathered together in Jerusalem for the Jewish harvest festival that was celebrated on the fiftieth day of Passover. While they were indoors praying, a sound like that of a rushing wind filled the house and tongues of fire descended and rested over each of their heads.

_________________________________________________

There was an outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Human flesh.The disciples were suddenly empowered to proclaim the gospel of the risen Christ. They went out into the streets of Jerusalem and began preaching to the crowds gathered for the festival. Not only did the disciples preach with boldness and vigor, but by a miracle of the Holy Spirit they spoke in the native languages of the people present, many who had come from all corners of the Roman Empire. This created a sensation. The apostle Peter seized the moment and addressed the crowd, preaching to them about Jesus' death and resurrection for the forgiveness of sins. The result was that about three thousand converts were baptized that day. Acts 2:1-41

That happened thousand years ago. The same spirt that ressercted Jesus, that brought forth revival was the saem spirit we have in us. The power of the Holy Spirit.

Pastor SL has been preaching a series of revival messages in WRPF. Today, he gave us the definition of revival , also he went on telling us about who the Holy Spirit is and also the works of the Holy spirit in the Old testament and New testament.

Revival is returning to loving and longing for God. I always thought that revival was just more people coming to know God. But, it's more than that. It's more than God in heaven sending forth His Holy Spirit and after that start counting the new added numbers to the kingdom. God is more interested in our being than the numbers or our doing. Being is more important than the doing. And in order to return to love and long for God, it's totally impossible. Pastor sl said it is impossible to be a Christian without the Holy Spirit.

It's true. I have noticed the pattern of my own spiritual life. During my JC years, I will make it a point to pray before leaving house. I find that when I rely on the Holy Spirit for strength, whatever I do becomes more efficient and also it's always during the busiest time of my life that I rely on God more, hence seeing more growth in my spiritual walk with God. Now, I need to return to that habit, to pray before I start my day. The Holy Spirit is God. He has the same attributes of God. Therefore we need to relate to Him.

Today, before service starts, God gave me this badge picture in my mind, it's like a glowing round but white circle with an inner yellow glowing circle in it. Then it has like a dove ( represent the spirit of God) in the middle. The image was very clear, but I'm just wondering what is the image for. Interestingly, when Pastor showed his introduction slide, guess what? It was 90% the same first image I saw in my mind earlier. I swallowed my saliva and my eyes were opened wide in amazement.

" God, what are you telling me?" I asked quietly in my heart.

After the service, God answered my question. God said that He will bring about a new increase of spiritual interest and will bring me back to love and long for Him. God will revive my lukewarm soul.

I am excited for the work that God will be doing. Like today, during altar call, I experienced the power of the Holy Spirit when we call on Him. It has been a while since I experience Him in that very familiar way. When pastor prayed for us, at the moment when the manifestation of God comes, I began to let out a cry. I wept quite loudly. ( Think mary and anna heard me) I will usually withhold myself,( ya, because I'm conscious in a new environment) but when God comes, my human being just cannot stand. I just began to wept, I began to cry out for the forgiveness of God and asking that God will set me apart to live a life that is worthy of His name. I think He has been preparing me for that. For the past few weeks, God has been speaking to me. He told me to drop all the wicked things or things that will pollute my mind and return to loving Him. God also asked me to live a Holy Life. It is more than just purity but one that is specially set apart for Him.

I really that God for the Holy Spirit working in my life.

I will worship.

May the lyrics of the song bless you heart to know the true and awesome God we worship. And may you manifest God's character in your life.

Be bless!

Today I want to thank God for His grace and mercy. I Finally pass my driving on the 2nd attempt. Now come to think of it, it's really God that helped me through my test. I was the first few to be called and out I go to get my car. I made my first mistake by greeting him good afternoon instead of morning. Hmm.. not a good start.

When I got in the car, he was already telling me where to go. I felt kind of rushy. He will keep repeating his instructions many times in a harsh tone, I felt intimidated by it. My second mistake was when he asked me to turn left, I turn right and of course I got a lasting earful from him. When I'm on the road , again I made a few mistakes as our judgements were different.

So I was panicking big time and at the same time, conversing with God by speaking in tongues. His long papaya face and harsh tone was really nasty. Well,it all ended fast, the whole tense driving process was about 20 minutes. Back to the school,I was asked to wait on the testee' seat.

GAWD! I tell you I was almost going to cry. So nervous . My stomach met lots of butterflies. I smsed my instructor that I m going to die this time. Then he smsed me to tell me that I pass. I didn't believe. I was really praying hard while he is computing the final results, somehow I just felt that I will screw up this time again. I don't want to come back ubi again. So dreadful! When he asked me in, his face was still as black as ever before.

Then he picked on my mistakes and reprimanded me. But, he gave me room to speak up, so of course must fend for myself right? I told him that his tone was harsh and fierce, so that's why I turn left instead of right. I think he got hearing problem as I had to repeat my words 3 times. but I fend myself after he told me that I pass. ( I think) If not, he still can change my results. LOL. So, I scored a total of 14 points. (all in circuit.) My performance on road was alright.

When down to thank my instructor, Uncle Gordon. He told me something, do you know that your tester (Ng Seh Hock) (Pss.... people beware he is a Chinese man with very small eyes and sulky face) is the most rushy and nasty tester? Most people died in his hands.

My eyes were wide in amazement, woa!! That must be God controlling my limbs man. How could I manage to pass in his hands when I couldn't even pass in Robu Bin Isnin hands ( very nice instructor). Thank God for his grace and mercy. If it's not for God I wouldn't pass my driving.


(: (: (: (: (:



Now, I kinda fear driving on expressway after watching the video.

Jesus, be the center,

be my source,

be my light,

be my hope,

be my song,

be the fire in my heart,

be the waves in these sails,

be the reason that I live,

be my vision,

be my path,

be my guide,

Jesus.
