The Lord Will Perfect
By Charles Spurgeon
“The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me.” Psalm 138:8 (KJV )
The confidence that the psalmist expressed here most manifestly was a divine confidence. He did not say, “I have grace enough to perfect that which concerneth me—my faith is so steady that it will not stagger—my love is so warm that it will never grow cold—my resolution is so firm that nothing can move...
A call for awakenings
But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
Ephesians 5:13-14
And do this, understanding the present time: The hour has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed....
Proverbs 31:10-31 (Amplified Bible)
A capable, intelligent, and virtuous woman—who is he who can find her? She is far more precious than jewels and her value is far above rubies or pearls. The heart of her husband trusts in her confidently and relies on and believes in her securely, so that he has no lack of [honest] gain or need of [dishonest] spoil. She comforts, encourages, and does him only good as long as there is life...
Awesome God!!

AWESSSOMEEE GODD! YOSH! There is none like our God! :DDD

The Strength of Meekness
Trisha Wilkerson
Sadly, weakness and meekness are largely misunderstood ideas and are often associated with “needy,” “fearful,” and “cowardly.” Even for me, I have filed these words under the “what I don’t want to be like” category.
Aspiring to either seems strange, yet the Bible speaks to both meekness and weakness as admirable qualities. For the Christian to accept weakness reveals a...
Trials & Comforts
By: Charles Spurgeon
For as we share abundantly in Christ’s sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.” 2 Corinthians 1:5
There is a blessed proportion. The Ruler of Providence bears a pair of scales—in this side he puts his people’s trials, and in that he puts their comforts. When the scale of trial is nearly empty, you will always find the scale of consolation in nearly...
GOD WHY SO AWESOME???? :=D
Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy. How awesome is the Lord Most High, the great King over all the earth! (Psalm 47:1-2)
“They all joined together constantly in prayer”
– Acts 1:14a
Genuine faith.
To my mom. I guess you did not have the chance to see the answers of your prayer. I could imagine you must be very devastating (I’m sure I’m not exaggerating) dealing with my rebellious teenage years.
But you had been a great godly Mom. I remember seeing you praying and reading the Bible every morning. I remember your compassionate and generous heart to the needy. I remember how...
Praise for Spiritual Blessings in Christ
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has...
Secret of the Welsh revival
Early in the Welsh Revival (1904) a Wiltshire evangelist visited the meetings at Ferndale. He stood up and said, “Friends, I have journeyed into Wales with the hope that I may glean the secret of the Welsh Revival.” In an instant Evan Roberts was on his feet, and with an uplifted arm towards the speaker he replied, “My brother, there is no secret! Ask and ye shall receive!! From an unpublished...
“The fear of the Lord tends to take away all other fears… This is the secret of...”

May Your will prevails.
Let Your will become my desire, God. I pray that neither my fear nor selfishness hinders You from fulfilling Your purpose in me. Teach me to surrender.

Glory
One day eyes that are blind will see you clearly And one day all who deny will finally believe One day hearts made of stone will break in pieces And one day chains once unbroken will fall down at your feet So we wait for that one day, come quickly We want to see your Glory Every knee falls down before thee Every tongue offers you praise with every hand raised Singing Glory to you and unto you only...
The miraculous recovery
The story behind it is that I got fungus under my nail, caused by trauma. I know having fungus sounds so gross, as if I’ve done something very nasty that fungus grow inside my nail. In fact, it grew because my nail got squeezed pretty hard by two metal-like surface, it did hurt badly. I thought the pain would be just temporal, however, overtime my nail looked so abnormal. Went to the doctor,...
Love like Jesus?
I still wonder how could Jesus love everyone. I wonder how He divided His attention and care equally, say, to each of His disciples.
We Wish to See Jesus
“We wish to see Jesus.” John 12:21
Evermore the worldling’s cry is, “Who will show us any good?” He seeks satisfaction in earthly comforts, enjoyments, and riches.
But the quickened sinner knows of only one good. “Oh, that I knew where I might find him!” When he is truly awakened to feel his guilt, if you could pour the gold of India at his feet, he would say, “Take it...
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. 1 John 2:15-17
“He who lives without prayer, he who lives with little prayer, he who seldom...”

And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified. Romans 8:30
Friday takeaway
Psalm 139:1-17 For the director of music. Of David. A psalm. Lord, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O Lord. You hem me in—behind and before; you have laid your hand upon me. Such knowledge...
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Romans 12:9-10
Take care of your brothers and sisters
Now, brothers, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.(1 Thessalonians 5: 1-2,11) Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and...
Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.
Psalm 62:5-8

Two years since you’ve been gone now. At first i thought it was only a year. Time passed very quickly, or.. perhaps blame on my low-byte memory lol. Never easy, everyone is struggling. But the Lord is good. Who is able to hold us up if not Him? The ship is not fully mended, but we are still sailing. The raging sea did scare us but we made it at the end of the day. We have a great captain...
