My House??

“And if it seems evil to you to serve Jehovah, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served Beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But as for me and my house, we will serve Jehovah.”

Joshua 24:15

Out of the down and busyness of the pass week, this verse have been ringing in me this whole week. I’ve heard pastors, elder of the church and even my friend said this to me. I don’t know what to say of it.

After much seeking God and taking some time to find out this verse in the bible and after that looking on why Joshua of the Bible said so.

The 1st time I read the entire chapter seeing that what God has done for the people of Israel and his faithfulness. And before Joshua die of old age, god gave the Israelite a choice to choose which God they want to worship. Such heart broken! I’ve been through heart broken experience just recently in my whole life and I can tell you that God is being God! The people who he saves turn their back on Him.

Anyway what kept me wonder of this verse is that when Joshua spoke “But as for me and my house, we will serve Jehovah.” Does he mean only his family? The 2nd reason is that this book has the same name as I do. So I just wonder why my parent could have come out this name for me. Is it by chance of so?

Lately I’ve visited a church in Penang and the theme of the Sunday school there was “The Joshua Generation”

The question now is. Is this my calling of my life? Ok you guys can ignore this part..

Lord I surrender all that I’m to you,

Take charge in my life and Jesus,

Teach me your way.

Amen

Weighted Down..

Last night, the whole campus breaks into darkness which I was just about to finish up my design. But end up in darkness. The only thing I could do was to sit down and pray.

I’m now in my friend’s room surfing as I upload this entry to you guys. My internet connection in my room was disconnected due to the power failure yesterday morning.

I attended the talk on industrial training of my campus, which the talk really snatches off and took always my moral to this very moment as I write on. I’m feeling down and under the clouds and I suddenly feel that I’m clamped up with works that is still yet to fulfil. Heavy burdens suddenly just fall on my back and I’m stuck to the ground.

The wanting to know what I will and can be in the future is really clouding my vision. Need to let go and let God do the things that He does best. I was speechless and my mouth is hardened to say and sing the song “How Great is Our God” just now in CF.

What I expect of God (to a certain extend) as if we are limiting what God can do and under estimating what he know the best for us. As you can see now, I’m contradicts my own thoughts and thinking. Sound childish? That I think is what happens constantly in my mind always.

Class.. huh?!?!

Some time I just wonder, when I see my friends go for class. Going for class that are super ultra boring, make me ask why they do as such. They go because of attendants or reasons other than listening to the boring lecture that are in front talking things that don’t make senses now until exam?

Looking back at myself as a Christian, some time I question my intentions. The intension of going for class is it merely to bring good testimony that Christians are good and because they are good they go for class, never missing anyone of it?

The main point here is that some time we do things because it is needed to be done as our job. So some time we will have the mind set that God need us, He needs us to do his works and etc.

The bible always reminded me that God choose us to be his hand on earth. God doesn’t need us to show the world, those who believe in Him will go class every day. He has the power to harden or even to soften any ones heart that he wants.

So it is the intention that’s God is looking at. If we continue on, don’t we just sound like the Pharisees in the olden days where Jesus walked the earth?

A point to ponder
