展 开 清 晨 的 翅 膀
Artist 讚美之泉

主 耶 和 华 祢 已 经 鉴 察 了 我
我 坐 下我 起 来祢 都 已 晓 得
我 行 路我 躺 卧 祢 都 细 察
祢 也 深 知 我 一 切 所 行

我 舌 头 上 的 话 祢 没 有 一 句 不 知 道
祢 在 我 前 后 环 绕 着 我按 手 在 我 身 上
这 样 的 奇 妙是 我 不 能 测 透
祢 的 至 高 祢 的 尊 贵
是 我 永 远 不 能 所 及

Chorus
我 可 以 往 哪 里 去 躲 避 祢 的 灵
我 可 以 往 哪 里 去 逃可 躲 避 祢 的 面
我 若 展 开 清 晨 的 翅 膀飞 到 地 极
就 在 那 里祢 的 双 手 也 必 引 导 我

It has been a downward spiral for me in these resent days… A fall which I will come back to look for me. Questions of human relationships and self reflection have driven me to a stage where I can not trust myself. My spiritual life was fluctuating as such of the world economy. Just some time I need a big hit from others on the face!

Was chatting with one of my close friend the other day online and here is the conversation (Below are the real conversation without anything hidden).

Me: anyway... u do what is needed to be done la... sorry if i've been an ass to u.... jz to assure u tat i'm doing my best... not taking u guys for granted... thank for all the help.... sorry and thank u..

Me: cant do much for u... cz i 'm worst than u... do bear in mind tat my png is jz 2.33 :(

TT: ?okay.. really need to study. but actually i got a feeling you dont have confidence in yourself.. Abit of advice la. dun care la wat other ppl think.. *i nvr thought or say ur an ass b4 and nvr will. i believe u have a stand. ur principle. watever it is, stick to it, be confident wiv it. ppl will respsct you for your stand. im not sure to how much is the extend you belive dat Gods controling your destiny, but you control your destiny too. okay so you have pointer below 3 but so wat? do something about it then.. show others you can make it above 3 too.

TT: you dun have to thank me le.. the truth is ur a nice person.. always trying to keep others happy, taking care of others.. however ur studies is not so gud.. not fair rite? sure is.. there are ppl who feel sorry for you.. but for how long?do you want them to keep on feeling sympatethic to you? of course not rite.. so time to make a change man.. focus on ur studiees come out top dis year..

Some time its sucks with life. But hey, how can the day come before the night or night before the day?

Psalm 139
For the choir director: A psalm of David.

1 O Lord, you have examined my heart
and know everything about me.
2 You know when I sit down or stand up.
You know my thoughts even when I’m far away.
3 You see me when I travel
and when I rest at home.
You know everything I do.
4 You know what I am going to say
even before I say it, Lord.
5 You go before me and follow me.
You place your hand of blessing on my head.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too great for me to understand!
7 I can never escape from your Spirit!
I can never get away from your presence!
8 If I go up to heaven, you are there;
if I go down to the grave,[a] you are there.
9 If I ride the wings of the morning,
if I dwell by the farthest oceans,
10 even there your hand will guide me,
and your strength will support me.
11 I could ask the darkness to hide me
and the light around me to become night—
12 but even in darkness I cannot hide from you.
To you the night shines as bright as day.
Darkness and light are the same to you.
13 You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
15 You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
16 You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out
before a single day had passed.
17 How precious are your thoughts about me,[b] O God.
They cannot be numbered!
18 I can’t even count them;
they outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up,
you are still with me!
19 O God, if only you would destroy the wicked!
Get out of my life, you murderers!
20 They blaspheme you;
your enemies misuse your name.
21 O Lord, shouldn’t I hate those who hate you?
Shouldn’t I despise those who oppose you?
22 Yes, I hate them with total hatred,
for your enemies are my enemies.
23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

*Everything has been random in this post. As I'm saying my mind out with unrelated topic all in the same moment. But the Psalms concludes it all...

Thank God and Little Potato.

Time is passing away as the finals come to a close. Well, it’s hard to know that deadlines are catching up and the most time, things don’t go your way. Things are getting busy and out of hand!! But hay, don’t worry God says…. And thank God for his gift of love and peace.

As I was doing my devotion with Potato the other day, she reminded me of a verse in the bible written by King David. I’ll leave it to you to wonder. Thanks to her….

23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

Psalm 139:23-24 (NLT)

lately while i was looking through photographers blog, i stumble across some thing that all photographer will enjoy. it's call "What The Duck". Due to the fast internet connection was very few student are here in campus, i was able to catch the animated version of WTD!

This was a hit among photography lovers in the US and now after a year plus continue to find new readers like me myself.

I was reminded of the Cat & Dog Theology as i was reading through Louis Pang's blog. For the pass few days, as I look back things like having to own a car, the gift of taking picture and more really makes me a cat..

To further elaborate it as stated in his blog : A cat thinks, “Wow…I am fed, looked after, loved & pampered. I must be the MASTER.” A dog gets the same treatment and thinks, “Wow…I am fed, looked after, loved & pampered. My MASTER is awesome and I am so fortunate.”

As i think I'm the master, people should bow down to me and follow to my convenient at all times and I'm having all rights to do whatever i like. well, that is obviously not the way that we are though through Jesus' teaching.

May be it is that we are living in of people taking advantage of us that some time we tend to go over defensive! I don't know about you, but this is true to me. This also don't give us the right to be a cat. But lets us be DOG (Disciple Of God), trust that with all His wisdom, He will shower on us so we might live a full life!

Lord,
Teach me to be a dog, that is hunger for your love and your mercy on my life. Use this life may it be the body that will be use in your plans Lord. As I call you my Lord, you are my master and teach me to use everything you have gave to me for you purpose! In Jesus' Name..

Amen

lately i told you guys that I stayed back in campus for Raya. so this are some of the things that me and Lee did. We first, wash my LEW, then we decided to give a kitten a bath! At night we climb to out roof top to take a picture... A Picture!! didn't have my tripos then, so cant take still picture.

** No Animal was being harm during this shooting (info for those amianl lovers) all are being treated well.

I have post this entry on the CF blog,

I can tell you it is because WE NEED TO KNOW. It’s our country and it’s the role for us to know what is happening in the real world. When people ask about such issue, we Christian will know what is going on outside! We have been living in our own world mini world of ideal. We are living in the world but not of the world remember??


In recent month or may be years, there was an unspoken topic about FTA (Free Trade Agreement) between the US and Malaysia. What is the FTA means? Free trade is a system in which the trade of goods and services between or within countries flows unhindered by government-imposed restrictions.

Free trade is a term in economics and government that includes:

• Trade of goods without taxes (including tariffs) or other trade barriers (e.g., quotas on imports or subsidies for producers)
• Trade in services without taxes or other trade barriers
• The absence of trade-distorting policies (such as taxes, subsidies, regulations or laws) that give some firms, households or factors of production an advantage over others
• Free access to markets
• Free access to market information
• Inability of firms to distort markets through government-imposed monopoly or oligopoly power
• The free movement of labour between and within countries
• The free movement of capital between and within countries

In other words, Malaysian farmers have to compete with GM food (Genetic Mutated food) from the US which is better. That will put these farmers out of business! Thus, they can’t even keep up with the imported rice from Thailand which is cheap and good!

What about the country laws are bound to this Trade Agreement. Which mean it’s not free to create its law! Just like the World Bank want people to borrow money from them so that they can get a hold on their economy!Our oil reserves will not be ours as the US are able to buy it without tax! in other words we cant tax them!!

on another hand this will change the whole structure of Malaysia economy, look at Proton, they might end up making batter quality cars to rival with those of Ford and GM cars... Not just this, it might just give Malaysia the push to change the 3rd world mentality that we all have into a country that has the ability to rival the US!

this above are my 2cents. not oppose it entirely but hope it will be a change for the better!! Well I leave this issue for you readers to think as it may be an eye opener!

Lately the Malaysian government are resuming FTA talks with the US to go on with the plan to agree with the FTA in Malaysia and US. At lease you know!

Do Pray for our country!!

It’s a very quiet week it has been since it is the Raya holidays here in campus. I made my way back to campus on Raya eve from Penang Island. While waiting for my dinner from Pasar Ramadan (the last day of its kind in this year!!), I manage to spend 2hours in the evening light to capture some of the things in campus while it was empty! Yes I said empty! As for yesterday before the sun goes to bed, me and Lee was thinking of waxing the car but we end up just washing it as we have no idea on how to wax! Will Upload the picture tomorrow when i got the time... :)
