Seeing many many natural disasters had occurred for the past 2 years and i have not experienced it first hand but mostly are watching through the television or the internet and the power of nature is really cannot be fathom at all. Looking at the recent tsunami in Japan, the waves were so powerful and really can't imagine the strength of the waves that hit the coast of northern Japan. We humans

I was in TAIWAN recently visiting my wife's relatives and unfortunately the person we wanted to visit passed away a week from our arrival. We didn't manage to see her last time but it was ok as we shown our respect to the family. As the trip turned from vacation into a more solemn stay, so most of the time we spent with the family and the relatives who came back from near and a far, and also

Ya I'm asking myself this solid simple question, why am i away for so long? I feel there are so many new things happening in this internet world that i was being tempted and gone into other new things...Well, i think most people are doing that as our time are really quite limited as there are so many things to do that we will not be bored for a second, but are these good signs??Even we can be in

I was very impatience about my fellow brother in Christ for not listening to my Godly advices recently, and i kept forcing him to seek God as he shared his life problems with me. After that, God reminded to me that i used to be like that. Yesterday night when i had cell meeting with my new cell group, my leader invited a brother who always come to church but he shares he is a in and out christian

It think i wrote something about worry 2 years ago and i remember i wrote don't worry and lay them to Jesus...Maybe this is new revelation to me but Jesus actually didn't say don't worry, He says don't worry about tomorrow as today has it's own worries. As we worry about many things daily but don't worry about the things in the future as today has enough things to worry. But i think we worry

Ya why? I always like to ask why this why that? School teachers always like to see their students to ask many questions... But my teacher scolded me for asking too many questions... i will not forget that my whole life...Will God scold me for asking HIM questions about our lives? Because i have so many questions about life to ask HIM... My daughter asks me lots of questions, and she likes to

wow, it was a tremendous experience that chili padi sauce hit my eyes. The small plastic package is filled with the hottest chili sauce of sabah, blended chili padi sauce.

Just passed my birthday the other day normally, and to me everyday is important and not only birthdays and other special occasions. But I'm confused to see the world is in a very big mess as people are getting more empty inside and people are over self centred, people are trying to fill their emptiness with whatever available in the world. I see we are very very concerned with our flesh or body

Are we over burdened with life in this modern world? Are things too fast for us? Can our mind handle all these tasks, responsibilities and information? I really can't imagine the pressure when people are staying in the big cities, how do we release the pressure? If we are too busy, how can we release the pressure?

I always write down my resolutions for the next year on the eve of new year's day and review the downs and ups as well to make sure I'll not repeat the same mistakes. I have not done so but in my mind, I have this compassion for the poor, needy, widows, orphans and the sick. ya, let Jesus' name be glorified.

Ya, is everything meaningless? That's what King solomon said... everything is meaningless..I had many ambitions when I was younger, I remember when I was 12 years old, I wanted to play in the Football world cup, playing like Pele, the world greatest footballer.

Ya, have not been updating my blog for almost 2 months now, had many inspirations but i was not in front of my computer most of the time when i had the inspirations.

I was having my breakfast at one of my favourite foodstores and I ordered a bowl of mee soup. And it came so quickly, and I suddenly saw a lady next table was picking out all the vegetable and put them aside, I thought what a waste and I like that vegetable very much. But I looked at my own bowl of soup, before me there was these small cut chopped green onion which I dislike since I was born... I

We all worry about the future, especially nowadays we don't know what will happen the next minute, everything seems not to be in our control. We feel hopeless with no control of our lives... Earthquakes, typhoons, tsunami, political unrest, financial crisis, sickness, diseases, so many terrible things happening everyday as they seem to be normal for us.

The world economy is very unstable and is manipulative. Recently, the oil price shot up to don't know how much, and it has brought a deep worry into people 's hearts everywhere in the world.

Is our mind belong to ourselves?People would say I'm crazy to ask such question. why would I think of such question? It's my logical thinking but I can't say is true because I'm thinking with my mind which I personally feel is not trustable. I analyse it this way, even before my mother gave birth to me, my mind was started being filled with my mother's perception of the world. If by God's grace

Haven't been writing much lately , since 2 months ago. Wow, many things happened in this short 2 months, really can't recall much as too many things happening. But most importantly God is moulding me, challenging me... Don't know why suddenly, heard a short sermon from my pastor really woke me up all of a sudden, woke up!

Have not shared with you my Bali trip yet but now already came back from my Taiwan trip. Time really moves very fast in this modern age as we are filled with so much things to do and we need to keep a consistent pace to finish our things daily, if not they will pile up and pile up... I think we can plan our life properly but of course we need to plan it according to God’s purpose for us. So what

Well, it has been a very busy month for me in May. It has 31 days but I felt like the 31 days just like lightning! Wow! Could not even remember what I have done in May. Anyway, just went to a inspiring worship seminar from 30th May - 3rd June. Our Church invited the 1am ( 1 accord ministry )(www.1am.com.my team) from KL, learnt a lot about worship in these 4 days, yes worship is not about singing

Have been quite busy with so many responsibilities in life... As we grow older and older, it seems like more and more responsibilities for us, but we may need to sit down quietly and ask God for wisdom in this area - set our priorities in life. I don't think we can do all and fulfill all responsibilities. Even our dogs are our responsibility. I think my dog's ancestors were working in the circus,

Just returned from Bali with my wife, yes Bali again. Don't know why, I have this special feeling about this island, maybe is because of the people, or the environment, just don't know. Well, is very economy to visit Bali, and it is a five star location but 2 star price. Compare to KK, or KL, it is much more expensive than Bali.

I have just been a parent for almost 2 years. And I have shared with the new parents even the older parents with a little of my wisdom on parenting. I'm not saying I'm wiser than them or what but I see one thing which I really want to remind the parents that we are the adults and babies are just new in this world. But many parents always do the reverse, they think the babies know all about

Actually it has been on my mind for many years , I think there was one pastor preaching using this as his illustration. When we buy goods from shops , often there are instructional manual to come with them. Even buying medicine, there are instructions printed on the box and maybe manual in the box. the most common would be electrical goods, or modern gaggets like handphones, gamestation so on.

One afternoon, I was walking from my office to a bank nearby and I was crossing a road which has little traffic most of the time, and at that moment the traffic was blocked as due to the traffic going forward ( drivers are selfish ), but suddenly, I heard tires squeaking and engine ramping, and I was just crossing the road standing in the middle of the road...First instant i looked at the vehicle

It’s an honor I cherish, and one I seek to live up to—but I don’t always do it. It’s the privilege of hearing my wife say, “You’re my best friend,” which she does often. As much as I love her, though, I occasionally do something that is not so “best friend-ish.”In reality, no matter how hard we try, we cannot live up to the high standard of being a friend who never lets others down. We all fail

A story was told of a wealthy man who felt his son needed to learn gratefulness. So he sent him to stay with a poor farmer’s family. After one month, the son returned. The father asked, “Now don’t you appreciate what we have?” The boy thought for a moment and said, “The family I stayed with is better off. With what they’ve planted, they enjoy meals together.

There are no “normal people.” Everyone deserves judgment. We are fallen creatures under a spiritual curse in a fallen world (Romans 8:18-23). Apart from God’s grace, hell is our natural state of being. Apart from God’s grace, this world would be a place of unmitigated horror and suffering.In the natural world, a desperate struggle for survival defines existence. The strong survive by dominating

A decision always comes with a consequence or a result. Each day we make many many decisions, I think the most popular one right now is where to eat or what to eat? Food has become a very important part of our lifestyle. I admit I made a lot of wrong decisions due to my self-centreness. Some decisions have given me a lot of worries, some have given me many sleepless nights, some have brought me

I have this burden to write a song since last month, as the title of the song is " the narrow road" , actually is based on God's words Matthew 7:13-14 The Narrow and Wide Gates 13"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.Is

Ya, everyone knows this song "amazing Grace". But when I was very far from God, I don't know what is it all about at all, amazing grace? I was a normal kid just wanted to be rich and be a successful businessman. I was born into a business family, I think that's why I was born an entrepreneur. During my way to success, I was sucked into the world, the lifestyle, the status, the glamour, the

I think everyone knows about Airasia nowadays. But during last time when they were still at the subang airport, nobody wants to fly with them. I flied many times with air asia to KL at RM299 nett round trip with inflight meal.

I haven't been to Sandakan since year 2000. I can tell you it has been a lot of changes. I always remember that my mother was born in this town, and the orang Utan rehabilitation is near here in Sepilok. Well, many people here are cantonese, maybe that's why it is nicknamed the small Hong Kong. Arrived Sandakan in the morning, picked up by my friend, Lai, went to have breakfast. A simple sparerib

    This is my last journal of my holidays in Macau. For me, I like to taste the food which the locals eating daily, to experience their lifestyle and to enjoy their fellowship. There are a lot of varieties of food in Macau, they have portuguese food, thailand food, Chinese food, Japanese food, Casino food, many kinds of Chinese food, so many so many. Mainly they eat a lot of noodles, they have a

    We really enjoyed very much of our trip, and I really wish some company will hire me to do writing for places i visited. Maybe just maybe one day. We didn't do much on the first night at the Senado square, so we went back to enjoy the world heritage again, and today was so crowded, another kind of atmosphere. We shopped for some souvenirs and mainly are local food, and a few bossini tee

    Market can also be a tourist attraction? Like the fish market in Sydney, but what about the KK market? This red market is just a normal daily market selling vegetables, fish and gloceries but it is painted all red. Actually, nothing much but it is just a normal market painted red. So we moved on to the streets, called 3 lights street, similar to our pasar malam. As if we didn't visit Red

    I don't know if anyone has stayed in Macau for 4 days for a holiday or not? But we have. Personally, I think 4 days are just the right time for a trip to Macau. We really can cover the whole Macau, Taipa, and coloane in 4 days. For me, is to enjoy people's lifestyle, culture, history, architectual, and food, many many more...We went to the Grand prix museum and the wine museum, and it was

   This was a long day as we went out since 8am in the morning, now still roaming around in Macau. After visiting Taipa and did some shopping, we walked back to our hotel area, and eveyone was so exhausted. Well, the name of this tour is " the walkathon cost free Macau tour " , took some pictures of the night lights and the musical fountain in the Wynn hotel, well, Macau is a 24 hours city.

   After a good rest, recharged with breakfast, time to move on with our plan - to Taipa, and coloane. Hac sa beach here we come. The sand of the beach is black colour, what happen? I also didn't research about it. The weather is quite hot in the summer and the humitidy is around 80%, i sweat so much and need to drink lots of water.

  Very tired after a long day walk. Had dinner at Sands, not cheap but reasonable, good food eventhough. Observed all the customers and mainly from China, and their eyes are filled with dollar sign. Well, this is the world right now, money is the most important thing in life for them. It is important but not the most important, as God knows all our needs and He will surely supply. Be content.

What if I told you that the source of most of your problems could be found within you—from the neck up? You’ll find it in the thoughts that come from your mind and the words that come out of your mouth. We must realize and understand the power carried by our thoughts and words. They’re so powerful that they can bring either blessings or curses into our lives, depending on their nature. Our

Maybe it was like that before going back to China but now the government is investing in its tourism sectors. This is our 2nd day in Macau, this is the afternoon as we strolled

    Woke up quite early to watch joyce meyer preaching on HK tv at 6:30am, wonderful sermon. Then we adjourned to breakfast near one of the local market. We had some dumplings, porridge, soya bean then we took the bus to the Macau tower. It costs 80 MOP , that's RM35 to enter to the top floor. It is not as tall as KL tower but it's nice. a few of the white tourists did the bundy jump. But there

   After checked into the sintra hotel, (do not visit Macau on the weekend, friday, saturday as the hotel fee will be much higher.), we started our free tour. We walked to the St'Paul ruins, wow, many times I watched it on Hong kong TV series, now I'm here in person. The pathment of the whole macau city is tiled wonderfully, beautifully patterned.

Macau has been changing and the government is planning to make this place a tourism attraction. Macau is now a world heritage. my trip with my wife and 2 friends were there for 5 days and 4 nights. Many people questioned me why Macau so long? Well, it is really subjective. Nobody stays in

Most of the time, I could not remember a bit about my dreams, maybe a bit but after a few minutes they were all gone from my memory.I had a dream last wednesday and even til now i can still remember it.

After checking out from the Tuaran beach resort, everybody is going to eat at Tuaran where we had our dinner fortnight ago. We decided to travel to Tamparuli town for its special fried noodle and ABC ( Ice mixed fruit, very famous desert in sabah ). It's not far from Tuaran, by car about 20 minutes. I think they open everyday, never see them closed for 1 day. We order the famous fried noodle and

What a wonderful morning, wonderful breakfast, after a wonderful time at the resort, it is time to go home. We will miss the holidays, the fun, the beach, the food, the pool, but life is not always holidays like this. There are lots of challemges ahead in our life but sometimes to enjoy this way, I have no complaint. Many times we have our own goals, own life plan to satisfy ourselves, saitsfy

We quickly walked to the beach, to enjoy the wonderful weather, not too hot. The sand is soft, and the waves is coming to the shore nicely. As we were strolling along the beach, we can hear God through the waves, we can see His marvellous work as well. But many of

But when I see people died of illnesses and diseases, I don't know if they die due to overdosing of toxic ( from processing food ), or by other reasons, food ( including drinks ) definitely plays an important role.Our diet nowadays is really scary if you analyse it carefully.

People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. 1 Timothy 6:9-11.The Bible says it very clearly even around 1500 years ago. My conversation with
