making everyday count?

ever wondered how? these few days: been wondering,
how and what should you do everyday to make it count for eternity? not wasting a single second, making every minute glorify God? then, i come up with a schedule :D do this this, that that, all seems good! then the day ends, and you just feel like the days been wasted! how can?? it just feels as if you've been using your own strength to do things.... and you know its wasted because you just cant feel God's presence with you at all. then the question comes, so how do you do what counts, yet not by your own strength? what do you do to glorify God?

AND THEN,

AN ANSWER!

yeah!! thats the best part! when God answers your questions! love it! :D
Fixing your eyes on Him and Him alone! hehe doesnt seem like it clicks eh? well heres how it does :)
making things count, heres the verse for it!

And whatsoever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, give thanks to God the Father by Him. Colossians 3:17

as long as you're doing all things (action, words, thoughts) in His name, dont ya think it gives Him glory? and in His name, there is only good, so if you do all things in His name, you cant possibly be doing anything bad! reason for the verse " clothe yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ" and if you do things only in Him, you'd be only doing things He approves of :)

next question. how about all those normal stuff? for eg, work, washing dishes, sports etc all the normal things you can think of, do those count? how do you make them count? they're nothing special, just everyday things.

same answer. Fixing your eyes on Jesus, while doing those things. this verse makes it more clear :)

Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything; and do it, not only when their eye is on you and to win their favor, but with sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord. Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.
Colossians 3:22,23

when you focus on Christ in whatever you do, we'd want to please Him, and so in whatever we do, whether the dishes, normal work etc, we work with ALL our Heart, as working for the Lord, not for men. all your heart. your heart is an important part of your body, if not the most important. you heart keeps you alive! so now ya know what it means by working with ALL your heart? :)

so we wash dishes, as washing Jesus' plate! what an honor! we'll scrub it till the cows come down if just a speck wouldnt come off! sweep the floor with al lyour heart! doing the best in all you do, focusing on Him alone, and what He thinks of you!

Working as for the Lord.

the moment where it counts the most. the test.

God has been so good!!
when desire really is something you choose to do even when you dont feel like it, and choose to go beyond what you feel, i can tell you as long as you keep pursuing God, searching for Him, and never stop, you're in for something great!! when you dont feel like it at all, but still say you will continue your search for this God wanting to know Him more, you find out later on it really is a mind over matter thing! ever since God started and stirred that hunger in me for Him, i was so hyped up wanting to tell everyone my testimony, wanting and just searching for every single opportunity i could find to tell someone and everyone my story, they hype was just great! it felt so good! that you are actually close to God, especially the wonderful experience that you actually start to hear his voice is just amazing! words cannot express how happy you'd be!! and then! all you learnt, will come into practice. where suddenly, for me, the hype slowly died down, God still was working greatly! but i just didnt feel as excited as i was before. And thats the time where it REALLY COUNTS! where all you've learnt and really does come to a point where its HARD to do, where you just dont feel the excitement as great as before. but this is the part where you show yourself faithful, and show yourself worthy to be His soldier, and His servant!

" To the faithful you show Yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless."
~Psalm 18:26

Because my hype went down, and my excitement for things also was down, i realized, this is the moment i have been preparing for. its where all i learnt when my excitement was up, comes intor practice, and where results WILL show up, even if it looks as if it wont. But, to make things worse, i didnt obey Jesus when he told me to spend more time with Him, and because of that, the results was, i felt even further from Him, and the old strongholds had a chance to get back in. but God is gracious and Merciful! Praise Him! He gave me the strength and realization, and i chose to stay faithful and realized its mind over matter! and really, when you are faithful, God shows Himself faithful! Praise the Lord!

He does what He says He will do!

hello people! Happy New year!! God has been great! hasnt He? :)
He works in ways and does things beyond what we can imagine!
its gonna be a great year! He has so much instore for us :D far BETTER
than we can every imagine! He is beginning to open so many doors!
I love the way He starts to work when you have that relationship with Jesus!
once you choose to take the leap, we'd think, it might be a dangerous walk, but instead of walking, we'd be flying! soaring!!and you wont imagine how high you will fly! He is the best there is! its just the start of the year, and Hes already moving! He always is, but when you desire Him, He opens your eyes to see his moves!! I really encourage you to take that leap! if you havent already ;) it'l be a wonderful flight :D dont miss out!! its too good to be true! He really takes the lead! when ya let Him, that is :) if you have already, believe He will work, and continue getting closer and closer to Him!
He told me this year is gonna be where he is really gonna start working, and He says it, i believe it, and because of that, We've met so many people we thought never exist, doors begin to open, connections begin to be visible! all in His time, as long as He is leading, you are following, all is exiting! now i really understand what exiting times are! i thought they were times to dread. but NO! it really is exiting!

just a simple card :)

alright! second post :D
So, i made an early birthday card for someone :)
give me your comments eh? :)
alright, enough chit chat, and bopety bob, lets just get to the pictures.







there! :D all done :) thats all for now kids :)

Hamsters down under. and more ;)

oolala! first post :D
heh. Recently, i've been learning so much! God really HAS been actually taking me further and further! i learnt Desire really IS a choice, not a feeling :D when you desire God, it doesnt mean that feeling, emotion like you feel like reading the Bible, feel like washing the plates, feel like waking up early it really is a choice! when you desire God, and Desire(/Choose) to do His will, you will CHOOSE to wake up early, CHOOSE to set apart 2 hours for your devotion, CHOOSE to do the right thing, CHOOSE to Say the RIGHT thing etc :) basically, it doesnt mean you only do the right things when you feel like it. You do it because you CHOOSE to, you dont feel like it, but you still do it! :D now THAT, is really being GOD's Soldier, dying to self :)
OH, did i mention, its IMPOSSIBLE to do it by yourself? :) we are born in SINFUL NATURE. its our nature to do sinful things. that is why you NEED GOD, who is everything good, to TAKE CONTROL OVER YOU :) haha, to be continued........

alright, lets move over, to that wonderful creature of a hamster(s) :)
so one day, i got two hamsters for my present! gahhhhh! the pain, the agony. nah, just kidding. haha! well, i was rather scared, because i thought they gave me white mice :D so anyways, the story goes, lots of things happened to the smallest cutest hamster we had. for eg, (in summary)hamster went downstairs at night, got stuck in the cicak trap, cicak bit the eye, hamster ate cicak head, and so on. so, hamster recovering, other hamster bit the same eye again, recovering. after all that comotion, the nice small little guy, running, hopping like a snail, was fine and sorta recovered :) woohoo, praise God. i took a picture of him one morning, and guess what?. he got heatstroke later in the afternoon and died. :( oh well! and as for this other FAT guy, hes still alive and greedy :) haha! so sorry for this horrible story but it is, reality :)

so this is the small guy, is the one who had the exciting life.


and this, ........ is the fat one. hah!



so, right now, sadly that small hamster really is down under.. the ground. sadness, but! uh, yes just that :) so thats all for today kids :) stay tuned, goodbye.
