the story of a panda

hubby loves to tell stories and joel loves to hear his stories. unlike me, hubby will make each story pretty interesting. somewhere early last week i was lying on the bed almost dozing off into my dreamland..... hubby and joel stepped into the bedroom..... joel sat on the bed and waited anxiously for his daddy to start the story.....

once upon a time there was a panda but not kung fu panda (joel is very much into kung fu panda - so hubby needs to clarify) who join the olympic game(since is so hot now).

he went to join the running competition. he was so fat and big and this made him run very slow. he was so sad because he turned out to be the last.

then he went to join the diving competition. when he dived the water splashed so high. he was sad because he lost again.

the panda decided to try at the badminton game. but he was not able to run fast and lost again.


with my eyes closed, i was giggling in my heart wondering what game will hubby go next. i guessed he will say "lontar peluru" (forgot the english term).

the story continue.....

then the panda went to join the weightlifting game and he won by using only one hand.

hubby: joel, u see..... GOD create everyone to be special. you can be good in this thing and your fren can be good in another thing. the panda is not good at running, diving or badminton but he did well at weightlifting. and the panda never give up when he lost his games.....

ok. end of the story. lights off. joel satisfied and time for bed.

clap! clap! good one hubby.....

NEVER GIVE UP AND WE ARE ALL SPECIAL!!!

i am a blessed child

i am going to be 12 weeks pregnant. my morning sickness started exactly on week 6. i was so sleepy then. like sleeping beauty. the hormones continue giving me surprises: nausea, vomiting, feverish, cry a lot, sensitive to smell like garlic, dynamo, syampoo and etc... and now i will wake up middle of the night or rather morning at 4am on the dot and stay awake. it's like an alarm thing. bravo to u hormones..., u win.....

at times like this i am very much affected both physically and emotionally...i literally drag myself to work everyday and at the end of the day my energy level is zero.....

IT IS ALSO......

at times like this i feel the presence of GOD. i can sense HIM so near to me and i desire so much of HIM.

at times like this i feel the love of my family especially my 3 darling at home.....walter ling, joel ling and how ling. they are my "kaki" and "tangan" at home.

at times like this i feel the warmth of my church. they pray for me and support me in every way. i received phone calls, sms, emails, sandwiches, herbal drink and etc.....

at times like this i feel the closeness of my relatives. my prayer warrior aunt will proclaim GOD's promises on me each time i call her. my aunt at hometown told me yesterday that she will send some "kampung chickens" all the way from sitiawan.

i am so blessed for the people around me. i thank GOD for each one of them.

so hormones, i think u lose... sorry....

覺得這首歌的旋律好好聽喔,有點輕快的感覺!
我第一次聽這首歌就愛上了,
一開始聽的時候,還不知道它的歌詞,
但今天當我找這首歌的時候,就發現原來它的歌詞也好好喔!

這首歌,應該不是詩歌,但是...
當中的歌詞就好像上帝爸爸在對我們說話一樣!
他正對你我說著祂的愛
在說著浪子回頭與迷失的羔羊的故事!

當你在外面流浪了太久,迷失了你的方向,
當你迷失了自己,感覺孤單無助,
當你在外頭遇到很多的攔阻,委屈,難堪,責備

別忘了回轉你的腳步,回到上帝爸爸的面前
上帝爸爸的愛是永不止息的,永不更改
上帝爸爸一直都在等著你回家,
上帝爸爸一直都愛著你,等著你回到祂的懷抱當中!

孩子,你在聽著嗎?別忘了上帝爸爸愛你,是永永遠遠的哦!
你還未出母胎,他就已經為你謀算你的前程了!

一場痛苦的疾病,讓教聖經的比利沃克老師有好幾個月無法照常上課。後來他對學生說,因為不能教導他們,使他心裏很難過,但上帝卻藉著他的病和康復教導他。

在臥病期間,有一天,他在禱告默想的時候,被使徒行傳28章中的一段經文所吸引。這段經文記載了保羅在馬耳他遭遇船難的事蹟。他從中看到,除了保羅被毒蛇咬了卻沒事的神蹟外,還有好多教訓。

這位偉大的使徒,曾向千萬人傳講福音,行過許多神蹟奇事,寫了新約中的多卷書信,卻成了囚犯,被困在小島上。他曾否躺著哀嘆自己的遭遇?他 是否想過自己因為是使徒,就應該享有比其他人更好的待遇呢?不!聖經告訴我們,他的選擇是去幫助船上的同伴和照顧大家。當時下著雨,天氣又冷,所以保羅 「拾起一捆柴」,放在極需添柴的火堆上(第3節)。

因著困難的環境,你也許被撇在一旁好一陣子了。也許你的生命到了一個地步,不可能再參與需要消耗精力的行動了。不要悲觀失望。

請記住保羅的榜樣,
去做你所能做的事,哪怕只是簡單地「拾起一捆柴」

上帝絕不會把你放在不能服事他的崗位上

Praise the Lord !


Recently, I was reading a book called A WALK TO REMEMBER. The story is about a life changing of a ‘typical’ teenager—alien and weird. (Let me call this teenage, Mr. A). Mr. A was born in a rich family. Whose grandfather did many harmful things to others in order to benefit him self. The story happened in a country side. In this town, there was a pastor. This pastor worked for Mr. A’s grandfather before. He knew all the bad things about Mr. A’s grandfather; therefore he did not like Mr. A’s family. This pastor had had a wife. But his wife past away when giving birth to his daughter. His daughter—Ms. B was a faithful Christian. Ms. B did many good things for the town residents. Grandpas and grandmas, daddy and mummy, little boys and little girls loved her so much, except, the weird group, teenagers. The reasons they did not like her were because of her good deeds and out look. One day, Mr. A invited Ms. B to a prom. The reasons that Mr. A invited her were because he had no one to invite, and he did not want his friends to make fun of him. Therefore, reluctantly he invited her. After the prom, Mr. A’s perception toward Ms. B had changed. Mr. A and Ms. B were in the same drama class. Every Christmas, the high school drama team would perform a story written by Ms. B’s father. This year, Ms B was chosen to be the prime female role and Mr. A was chosen to be the prime male role. At first he was reluctant to do it. However, Ms. B’s sincere requirement made him no reason to reject. Days after days, Mr. A fell in love with Ms. B. With prayer Ms. B had changed Mr. A. Mr. A started to do good deeds to the residents. However, thing did not go smoothly. Ms. B had leukemia. Mr. A was so sad. During the last few months of Ms. B’s life, Mr. A father helped Ms. B a lot. Because of this, Ms. B’s father had forgave Mr. A’s family.

Although the story was sad, the ending was good. Our lives full of good things and bad things. When good things happen, we say “Praise the Lord.” When bad things happen, we say ‘praise the Lord.’ Do we really praise our God? Saying “Praise the Lord” during bad things happen is a tough homework that every one needs to learn. By God’s grace we are able to learn it. Sometimes, Mr. Tan—satan means it for evil, but God means it for good. Let us encourage ourselves with this verse “ And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” Romans 8:28

我们每个人都是作家


那天,有人问我为什么没有把新的文章放上来!其实我也不知道该怎么回答她,告诉他我最近有点忙,但其实我也不是很忙。我一直都认为这里要放的文章应该是见证,是一些能够鼓励到弟兄姐妹,能够造就他们的文章!所以当我没有写见证,没有一些特别能够鼓励的文章的时候,我就没有文章贴上来了!

但是现在,我把这篇文章写出来,却是为了要鼓励在我们当中每一个写文章的朋友。我相信而且认为我们每一个人都是一个作家。每一个人都可以写,你会讲话,你就能够把你讲的话写出来,希望你们也可以这样认同!其实我真的不知道看这篇文章的人,有多少个是在写文章的人,有多少个是没有写的!或许你会认为你不会写文章,你不会用很美的字眼来到把文章写出来。但是我却觉得最主要的是在于你愿不愿意去写。即使是一小段的文字,短短的几个字,我相信都有那种能够影响人的能力!

很多时候我们写文章的人也是不知道我们写的文章是否能够感动到读者。但是我知道的一点就是,如果没有人写的话,就不会有造就人,鼓励人甚至是感动人,让人看见上帝的爱的机会。很多时候,我们不需要自己写,当我们看了某一篇文章,感动了我们的心,我们可以把它贴上来,与弟兄姐妹分享啊!是简单的,我鼓励大家,多一点阅读,多一点下笔,把你的见证,你的感动写下来与我们分享!或是你读了我们写的文章之后,就写下你的读后感,你的心得,这可以鼓励到往后阅读的弟兄姐妹,更能够鼓励到写文章的人,让他们写得更有动力!

希望在这篇文章之后,我们能够看到更多的人愿意下笔!还有一点就是,当你愿意使用上帝给你的恩赐的时候,我相信上帝会更加的祝福你!

我们一起加油哦!

Walau! 佈道是一个过程, 也是一种生活方式!

那天我与同事一起午餐, 谈起了一般星期天他都会一早起来洗车, 然后跟家人出外吃早餐等...
我忘了从几时开始, 我和琦琦已经没有想过星期日会很悠闲的起来, 然后跑跑步, 去吃早餐, 然后去超市或巴刹买些菜肉等 ... Walau! 听起来像很不错似的真令人羡慕!

但我马上知道, 这个"walau" 只限于可能几年, 或者最长几十年.

我也知道有一个造物的主人,他计划让自己放弃了祂的"walau" 身份,来为祂造的家伙牺牲.来给我免费的永生.我也知道, 因为有一些人, 他们也放弃了他们的 "walau"时刻, 来为神工作, 在主日时与神同工来服侍我, 我才能免费得到我的永生, 有永远的"walau"在我父的家等着我回去享受.

你预备好了吗? 愿意把这永恒的"walau"介绍给你朋友吗?
我常想, 有一天回天家,耶苏看到你时, 我想祂可能会说:"Walau eh! 你做得真好! Come, come,这些record里都是你儲起的reward point, 让我来帮你claim你的赏赐!"
