to be one...

Religious input :D My preacher started his sermon by saying that how wonderful it feels when someone said they will pray for you n they actually does so, n that when u met the person again, he/she is STILL praying for you... this is his real experience... well.. maybe to some of us might think 'praying only... big deal...!' well try it... COMMIT urself to pray for one person... i can guarantee you itz HARD.. n i am so blessed to have sooo super many people around me that alwiz remember me in their prayers.. my parents.. my granma, ev. maria (evangelist back in bdg), my aunts n uncles, and another one is as young as me n already hav a habit of praying.. alxner... :D well,... coming to NTU, im even more surprised,... the youths are really having a very good habit of praying (be prayed for or pray for) before exams, caring one another, having fellowship with one another... itz great! ^_^

eniwei... let'z get to the sermon... it is taken from the John 17 :20-26 firstly, we read how Jesus prayed.. he prayed for all believers! no matter u r christians, catholics, wadever... as long as u r a believer, he PRAYED FOR US!! he prayed that we will be in one another (believers side by side, hand in hand), us in god, us with jesus, and god in us... :D

breaking them down, we know that there's alwiz conflicts between christians.. methodists and presbyterian.. anglican and bible presbyterian... outside our 'christian' community, we have another conflict with the catholics... y is this so?? the difference between US is only our choice of music, instruments, tradition and HOW we carried out our service... our prayer is sent to the same God... our purpose in life is the same.. thatz to glorify our God... then y the conflicts?!

people around us, who cant see God, could see us.. we are the representative of GOD on earth.. by the way we behaving, they will judge how being a christian is... eniwei.. the third one, US with jesus is our vertical n horizontal relationships with god n other christians... hopefuly by having accomplish the 3rd one, the 2nd one could be done more easily.. :D

lastly, God in us.. guiding us through our life.... from now n evermore.. :D bless you!!! ^_^

eniwei... i juz wanna add my own things here.. :D quite a number of people say im not quite sure what im doing in life, what i wanna do, what i wanna accomplish in the future.. people out there in the same situation as me would juz go hay-wire n would be drown in 'earthly' desires.. smoking drinking weeding.. etc etc... but look at me.. im a happy go lucky person tat made people jealous over my life... one of my fren asked me how do I walk this life happily... well.. if that question was thrown to me years ago, i would CONFIDENTLY say itz becoz of God....

i mean, i also KNOW that this life has alwiz been blessed by him n im continue being showered by his love every day... but i also know that my life has not been glorifying Him in any way... the only thing that makes me a christian is that i still go to church every sunday and pray to him b4 my meal n my sleep... THATZ all... thus, i duno y i cant say straight away that it is God's work in my life to these people.. i know that those times they asked were the opportunity to make them knows GOd.. but im afraid they tink im being goodie-goodie or juz giving a plain 'religious' way.. u know wad i mean? coz i hav not been a good christian.. so im afraid they'd tink tat im juz lying through my teeth... aiz... how i wish i could hav time to explain that that's the mercy n grace of MY God.. even tho i havnt been good/faithful to Him, im still his precious child.... beautiful? :D wait2.. do u know WHY im still his precious child? coz of THOSE people who prayed for me! DUH! ^_^ they say my name, asking Him to guide me, take care of me, dun leave me astray.. THAT'Z why....!!!!! ^_^ the power of prayer :D

i hope one day i could do the same to those people... :D praying for them... keeping them near God... :D bless ya bless ya bless ya!!! ^_^
