One day in a classroom, students were given one mathematic question. The question was 1+1 = ? Student A: 1+1=2 Student B: 1+1=3 Student C: 1+1=0 Student D: Hmm, okay, just let me see what the rest answer. Student E: Yea, me too. Student A: 1+1 must be equals to 2 la, how can it be 3? Student B: It's logical, trust me it's 3. Student C: The world comes from nothing and when things come together, it's nothing. Student D: A, B and C could be correct too. But I believe, no one holds the absolute truth. 1+1 couldn't be 2, who knows? A, you must tolerate with B and C, because it's true for them. Student E: Everyone wants to answer the question, and I believe they all wants to answer it, I guess I'll be good. Student A: NO! of course not, it's all the while 2, from the very beginning when teacher taught us. Student B: A is a liar, don't believe him. How can 1+1 be 2? Student C: Teacher? don't be silly, there's no teacher. Student D: A, how can you insis

I tried so hard to love my friends, I would risk my time, my future and my life for them. But when you pour out so much, they just pull their cups away, it's more hurtful than just saying no. When you tried every single way to pull your friends back from the pit, you realise your friend was only going down deeper. Then I doubt, am I doing the right thing? The way I want to help my friend, are they right? I always believe a friend is really a friend only if he/she would die telling you the truth and the right thing to do. I would risk my reputation and even the comfort of my own couch to do that. But, what I did, are they mistakes? I'm a human, I could be wrong, I never ever dare to claim that I have no fault, I never dare to claim I'm wisest. I would give my help, with all I can. Exactly because I'm a human, I can't be as faithful as God Himself can be, I will give up. It's hard to be disappointed by your loved ones. All I want to say, I see you as friend, I wou

It's turning into obsession. Sometimes I question that little, faint light of passion for you. So much time I told myself to love, but instead it causes me more pain than pleasure. Jealousy, insecurity, uncertainty surely have their ways to strike me. Perhaps it's a mistake to fall in love with anyone. Or maybe I never learn how to love. I can't tolerate, that's not love at all. It's obsession. I expect everything from you knowing I have no right to expect anything from you, hence disappointment that I should not be feeling in the first place. You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. (Psalm 56:8)

I dunno if it's appropriate to post this but today's topic was about Motivation. There were so many sources of motivation, but Xiao Chun made a good point, if we do not motivate ourselves, there's no way we could be motivated by anyone else. I did not quite agree at the moment when discussion was going on, because my idea was a car can never fill up its own empty tank and a car can never run on empty tank. But it was kinda true, because if we do not open up ourselves for anyone else to fill us up, there's no way we can be filled. If we remain defensive, no one could reach beneath our heart, to know what's stopping us from going forward. Our God, God of Trinity, remain in constant relationship between the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit even though He is the God Almighty, because He, as God Almighty knows clearly how important it is to be in relationship with others. As strong as God, needs a strong relationship, how much more, as mortal man would need relationsh

Better is one day in Your Court, Than a thousand days in the riches of the wicked. Better is crawling on Your road, Than to drive on the highway of the wicked. They turn "Hallelujah" into curse, The words of their lips are crushing me. They turn Your name into ridicule, The grins of their teeth are haunting me. They speak against You and me, Like a spear pierces right through my heart. Hostile in their land, I fear, Cold and covered in darkness, I fortify, With brutality and profanity, That I may look like one of them, That I may walk on their path, That they may fear me. But that is not the road I tread, I wanna fight, On the back of Your horse, Buckled the belt of truth, Wearing the breastplate of righteousness, Shielded by faith, Salvation be my helmet, Wielding the sword of the Spirit, The Word of God, Prayer be the slash of my sword. To strike their pride, Crush their ignorance, Mute their foolishness.

Approached two elders of The Church of Jesus Christ today in the LRT. They are Mormons. Bearing the name of Christ, sharing not the Word of God. We can call ourselves Christians all we want, but who is a Christian? If we continue to allow ourselves to divide into denomination, then we allow Satan to constantly creep into our Churches. The Mormon's founder, Joseph Smith was confused by different denominations and was looking for the RIGHT church to settle down but he couldn't. Mormonism does not abide in God's Word. They have different Testament to follow, calling it the Book of Mormons. It's important to be careful of all these doctrines. Whatever gospel that contradicts the Holy Bible, is not from God. Joseph Smith is not a prophet, we need not to acknowledge that (professing that Joseph Smith is a prophet is one of the step of receiving salvation, but who died for us on the cross? How come I've never heard that I have to acknowledge that Martin Luther is the leade
