Be A Landmark

I went  up to Kundasang to have a silent time so i could get away from all the distractions and  spend sometime searching for God. And to Listen to what God wants for me.

There are a few things i would want to Pray for:

1. Intimacy with God (i need a breakthrough)

2. God to speak to me regarding my current spiritual state

3. God to show me the vision for my spiritual life in the future (goal or dream or greater purpose)

4. That i may listen to God, be clear of distractions to really hear God.

5. Whether He wants me to go to Tung Ling seminary on 1st to 11th july or not

6. What kind of future or situation is He bringing me in the physical. (work and life)

7. For work (which job will delight Him if i do)

And Just as  i was spending time praying, I felt God is saying these things.

When you mention Sabah, you think of mount KK. It's like Mount KK is the icon of the State of  Sabah. Just as  Mount KK is the  landmark of Sabah. I felt God ask me to become a landmark. And to Be a landmark by first follow after Christ. I have to Wrestle, Fight, Run, Try, Endure, and Enjoy this journey. Have pleasure in doing these knowing God is with me. And to be Chrsitlike by obeying God. I Felt God is saying that i should focus on the "being" rather than the "doing". Because "being" is me but "doing" is my expression of love from being me. And through this becoming a model for many.

I felt  it is not fair! That the others don't deserve it. They don't deserve this sacrifice and hard work that i have to put into this. But then God said I don't do this for them but I am doing it for me and for God. Because God wants me to be more and more like Him. And I want to be the person God created me to be. And in being so, i will end up doing the things God wants me to do.

God place me on earth to be Christlike. Not to do things but to BE. Because my presence is important.

Luke 11:9 - 10

9 “So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

In Luke 11:9 - 10  says to ask and you will receive. So I started asking God, have I not been asking? Why is it that my dreams are not coming through? Should I ask for a longer period of time? What is happening?

So I started reading the entire chapter of  Luke 11 so to find out about the context God is speaking about. What is it that God is saying about us asking and he will answers?

And I felt strongly when I read this part in Luke 11: 2 - 4. And I Felt God is saying to me that I should be persistent in prayer in these.

Luke 11:1-4

2 So He said to them, “When you pray, say:

Our Father in heaven,

Hallowed be Your name.

Your kingdom come.

Your will be done

On earth as it is in heaven.

3 Give us day by day our daily bread.

4 And forgive us our sins,

For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.

And do not lead us into temptation,

But deliver us from the evil one.”

1. Your kingdom come, Your will be done

To seek His will first above all else.

2. Give us day by day our daily bread.

Ask God for Him (daily bread) daily so i am filled to Be Christlike.

To be able to endure and focus in this journey towards Christ-likeness.

3. And forgive us our sins, For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.

Ask for forgiveness and remember to forgive.

4. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one.”

Pray and endure and have self control to overcome temptation.

This is a guide towards Christ-likeness, that God wants to remind me to focus on. 

Prayers:

Pray that We will open our ears and heart to listen to God

Pray that we will focus on things that is pleasing to God.

Pray that we have the strength to endure through while we learn to be Christ-like

Lauren Daigle - You Say. Lyrics

This song have been in the christian billboard for at least 8 weeks. Now considered the top 1 in the chart. Would love to share this with everyone

This is the lyrics

You Say

Lauren Daigle

I keep fighting voices in my mind that say I’m not enough
Every single lie that tells me I will never measure up
Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low?
Remind me once again just who I am, because I need to know (ooh oh)

You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don’t belong, oh You say that I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe

The only thing that matters now is everything You think of me
In You I find my worth, in You I find my identity, (ooh oh)

You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
And You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don’t belong, oh You say that I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
Oh, I believe

Taking all I have and now I'm laying it at Your feet
You have every failure God, and You'll have every victory, (ooh oh)

You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don’t belong, oh You say that I am Yours
And I believe (I), oh I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe

Oh I believe (I), yes I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
Oh I believe (oh)

Trust In You

by: Lauren Daigle

Letting go of every single dream
I lay each one down at Your feet
Every moment of my wandering
Never changes what You see
I try to win this war
I confess, my hands are weary, I need Your rest
Mighty warrior, king of the fight
No matter what I face You're by my side

When You don't move the mountains
I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters
I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers
As I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You

Truth is, You know what tomorrow brings
There's not a day ahead You have not seen
So let all things be my life and breath
I want what You want Lord and nothing less

When You don't move the mountains
I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters
I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers
As I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You
I will trust in You

You are my strength and comfort
You are my steady hand
You are my firm foudation
The rock on which I stand
Your ways are always higher
Your plans are always good
There's not a place where I'll go
You've not already stood

When You don't move the mountains
I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters
I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers
As I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You
I will trust in You
I will trust in You
I will trust in You

This Post is not for me but for a special someone. This post is dedicated to Amanda Voon.

Today, something great happened.
Today marks the change of my 7 year long status.
Today onwards, I am no longer single, after a whole whopping 7 years of being Single.
Today, 27th October 2018 marks the special day that i will have a new start with Voon. 

Here is a little information about her.
I have known Amanda Voon from 2012. So 6 years already. 
She is a very special girl, she is an amazing girl who accepts me and love me as who i am. Mature, lovely, sweet, smart, understanding, gentle, kind, and so so much more.

I know, there are still much more for me to find out in this journey. So i can't wait to walk a beautiful and fun journey with her. 

About tonight, I prepared a box handmade by me.
Have been using weeks to try to get the box ready, and today i used another 6 hours non stop to decorate and design the box. All just to surprise her and pop the question.

This is the video when i pass her the box.

Looking for more awesome memories to come.

After You Cafe @Terminal 21 in Bangkok, Thailand

Today, we went to After You Cafe in Terminal 21. We ordered a few interesting food.

The Hojicha Kakigori is a new item in the cafe. 

This is one of the most prefered among us. It is covered in japanese sugar syrup. (I think it has some shoyu in it as it taste a little salty)

Love this dessert a lot. Refreshing and a brilliant creation. 

Ferrero Mille Crepe is soft and fragrant. Very nice and fluffy. 

This toast is good. Tho strawberry is not the sweet type, it is balanced with the chocolate syrup. Thus, making this dessert not too sweet. Perfect.

Credits to Elaine for this picture. #Flatlayhug

Very very happy with this cafe. Definitely worth our time and money. 

Mortar Cafe Labuan

So after work tonight I thought I should visit a cafe and I thought of Mortar Cafe. And now here I am. 

The place is quite big and cozy. I like the layout and design of the place. Suprisingly the service is quite good. people are friendly and very hardworking. 

The variety of food here is good. They serve western food and also asian food. From burgers, pizzas, chicken maryland, to nasi goreng padang, nasi lemak, nasi kerabu, and even chinese prawn mee, kolo mee, curry chicken mee. 

The menu consist of four parts of food. breakfast, lunch, dinner and late night supper. with salads and drinks even toast bread for light snackers. 

I couldn't list all the food out. 

I took this picture for you guys to take a look at a part of the menu. yes i know, interesting isn't it? 

A very cool place to have in Labuan. definitely coming back again. 

My order of mini burger and special juice.

I like the juice a lot, i was told it is a mixture of apple, orange, lime (Kit Chai) and sour plum (Ham Moi). First sip and i thought, "What a fantasting combination!". This is coming from a person who hates oranges or orange juice. 

However the mini burger is a bit too mini for me. I Thought it is a Sliders sized burger, but instead what i saw is something smaller. Still, I would love to come again for a meal here. I believe there are much treasure to be found in this cafe. 

BTW, the waiter Asnah (I think. If I didn't see the name tag wrongly) is quite cute. Of course the guys did very well, especially the guy who served me. Good job. (No name tag tho)

Hasta Luego! Cheers ~
