2 Corinthians 12:7-10

And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure.

Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.”

Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Vision

If I am a millionaire, I will use my money to build the following for God's glory!

1) Hospice - To provide a home for the terminally-ill patients
2) Hospital - To provide free medical services for the poor and needy
3) Old Folks' Home - To provide a home for the abandoned old folks
4) Orphanage - To provide accomodation for the homeless orphans

Yes, I pray that I will be a philanthropist to help the poor and the needy!
Thats my vision for my lifetime!

Encounter with God

I was worshipping during service last week, when I remember how Jesus literally appeared in front of me 6 years ago. I was attending bible study back then with Pastor Tan on the tabernacle series. He was demonstrating on how we can draw reference of worship from entering the outer court and into the Holy of Holies. Still remember the worship song that we sang – “I want to sing”.. The presence of God was so strong that night. As I slowly search for God during the worship, suddenly I entered into a state which I have never experienced before. The song was still playing, but I could hear nothing.. it was so quiet.. everything seemed to come to a standstill. The presence of God filled my heart and I felt as if God is in front of me. I dare not move, for I feared that His presence will leave me. Unknowingly, I have entered into the Holy of Holies!

Suddenly, a huge silvery face (similar to the liquidated form of T2000 in Terminator 2) appeared in front of me and said to me “Hi Jack, How have you been?” I froze at that moment.. I have met my Lord Jesus Christ for the first time, literally see Him face to face! I was so happy! After about 10s, I went back to normal self and opened my eyes. The worship was still going on and the silvery face was gone.. Though it was just a short moment that I saw Jesus, I will cherish and remember that experience forever in my heart! I hope I can have similar encounter with Jesus once again during worship, where I know that I know, that He is there in front of me and talking to me directly. What an encounter with God!

God give us all

Romans 8: 32 - He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

What a powerful verse! God has already planned out a great future and the best things for us even before we were born. Though we may not see it now, it is because of His wonderful timing. Sometimes, we get too impatient when things did not turn out the way we wanted, but rest assured, when God said in His Word, it shall be done according to His perfect timing and will! Praise God for His plan in my life! I can hope and look forward to His great plan for me!
