Ephesians 1:18-20

New International Version (NIV)

18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,

Its Christmasssssss….^.^

She looked at the gift. It looked sooo different than the others under the tree. It was so carefully wrapped and even had a ribbon tied in a bow. In rich red paper it was beautiful! This gift was larger than the others too. Something was missing… It didn’t have a name on it. She couldn’t ask whose it was; it seemed too special. She just looked in wonder. Just having it under the tree added something special to Christmas.

That Christmas, along with other holidays, was not special. Holidays, in her home, were filled with lots of misunderstandings.

And it always led to yelling. . .

Yelling led to fights. . .

Fights sometimes went beyond words . . .

In the home the “special” had been lost in holiday events. This Christmas in particular was framed in angry discussions of job loss and financial stress.  She overheard a lot.

The GIFT was so mysterious; it was a blaze of red color in her black and white world. It captured her mind.

She could hardly contain herself as the time came to open presents! She is the youngest of four. Presents were handed out in order, oldest to youngest. Each time another gift was handed out the anticipation built.

It did not go to her sister. . .

Her youngest brother did not get it. . .

Her middle brother was given the box next to it. . .

Next, her mom’s hand reached for THE gift . . . her world went into slow motion when she handed THE mysterious, beautifully wrapped gift to her! For just a moment she didn’t move. Maybe it was a mistake… then she saw the hidden tag; it said, “To Alice from Santa.”   It was real. It was for her. Her fingers began to un-wrap the box; she was still in disbelief.  As the paper fell away, she could hardly believe my eyes; a brand new pair of pink ice skates. “New for ME!” she said.  Being the youngest daughter with two older brothers almost nothing was new coming to her. Now right in front of her were brand new shiny ice skates.

She remember nothing else of that day beyond skating up and down the ice covered country roads. She was the only one thankful for the recent ice storm! In the next few days, she is sure she must have broken some world record for the distance skated by a 9 year old girl.

That gift lifted her out of a fog. She is not sure what she would label the fog. Maybe it was the expectation that somehow Christmas should be special. Maybe it was TV or maybe comments she heard at school but somehow she thought Christmas should be a special time. The mysterious gift made that Christmas the most memorable of her childhood. She never found out who “Santa” was. She wish she could say, “Thank you” and let them know how much that gift meant. Someone’s kindness made a significant impact and a memorable Christmas.

She now know there is another mysterious gift that makes Christmas special.  Often it is missed in the busyness, emotion or misplaced focus of the season. This gift has removed the fog of despair that had a grip on her life. This mysterious gift came in the form of a baby born in a stable. When she consider that Jesus left the perfection of heaven, it is almost incomprehensible. He came to walk the planet He created. Each day, His heart was broken by the people he came to serve. He did this for nine year old girls. All this is wonderful, mysterious and beautiful. What a gift. Since she knows THIS gift giver, she can say “Thank you” for a life changing gift. 

Have you considered Jesus, the One whose heart has been broken and He knows all your hurts and sorrows. Would you like to know Him personally?  You can by simply opening up your life to Him and asking Him to come into your life, forgive you sins and be direct your life from this moment on. You can pray a prayer something like this:

Lord Jesus, I want to know You personally. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life to You and ask You to come in as my Saviour and Lord. Take control of my life. Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me eternal life. Bring peace to my world this Christmas. Make me the kind of person You want me to be.

If you invited Christ into your life, thank God often that He is in your life, that He will never leave you and that you have eternal life. As you learn more about your relationship with God, and how much He loves you, you’ll experience life to the fullest. Have a early blessed Xmas guys and girls, enjoy the story…and this seasons of love. and blessings….Alex.

The Heart Conscience

Deep into the very being of us, there’s this urge to try out a vast range of stuffs either we are conscience or not about the ending part that we are going to endure. But when success turns out to be an aberration, we starts to put the blame either on ourselves or those that is so close and mean the most to you.  The perpetual abhoring of situations prolonged one’s suffering and pains with the clear heart conscience of what’s happening around. Despite the arcane fact that darks remain hidden, and lights remain uncovered, some non-fruitful and selfish demands are not to be seen or treated as an acquiesce, far more indulging yourself with alacrity with a purpose of appeasing both side. Such avarice of heart its gonna takes some time for it to gain back the original conscience and coherent of thoughts.

Its always been a grey matter to have a clandestine liaison without realizing what’s the consequence that we have to endure finally. Some party suffers or other words, coerced into a dark matter which in one way or other, affects those surrounding people. Complacency heart has been too naïve to connive plans that will strike the very deep of one’s heart, hurting so much that even the truth shall be forcefully twisted. Its only through the power of love and the Blood that Christ has given us which surpasses all understandings, all thoughts and no greater sins or mistakes that we have done are too massive for Him to deal with. Yet even with this in mind, heart can be debased and deceived into conceiving negative thoughts and feeling rather to detest the truth within one’s action.

Excessive deferential to one’s character can be fatal to our heart conscience even without us realizing it. Too much of indulging ourselves into one’s shoes and thoughts of their heart has proven to be fruitless and yet we still wanna remain in it with the so-called clear conscience of our heart. Its time to abraid our heart, our soul, and our mind to be wise in everything that we are dealing with, not to be sloppy as before, as this will only lead to wider misunderstandings and hurts. This is what we called an evolue, primitive thinking that has been shaped and educated in modern ways.

Our ways of doing and coping with things has been a very verisimilitude situation, in which we are unaware of what we have done until the stage of harboring this consequence and foolishly troubles those that are giving you much concern. Learn to appreciate, instead of being a tyro and tractable person, to give your beloved one a fair treat, I believe is far more decent act rather than indolent or feel that oneself is inept to carry out any tasks.

The heart has been a weak source of spring and thoughts in which one can be either deceived or learnt from it, gaining enough information to justify it. It has been a link to different mentality, relationships and school of thoughts, with others regard it as a stressful mechanism that makes someone crazy after years of studying it. Chances don’t just come by and go, its either we learn to appreciate it or leave it. The more we suppress ourselves into doing what is right in His sight, we’ll never learn or accomplish anything big in our lives.

As far as the tile goes by, with our own heart and mind conscience in doing things that are so appealing to us sometimes, learn to differentiate between good and evil. Since we are already accepted and He has given us a second chance, grab it seriously and learn to strive upon it, without looking back, but instead keep on pressing for Him till you see His face, embracing you with a welcoming love, whispering in your ears saying ‘I love You’. Alex.

Good Time With Him

A sudden reminiscing of my younger days, school days, whereby whenever I’m done with my homework and studies, esp during  weekends, at my lovely home, grabbing up my beloved tools, my guitar, times when I haven’t own my very 1st rig, just dedicated a simple praise song to Him, and tat time, this familiar ‘Give Thanks’ song opened up my heart and love enjoying in His presence everyday of my life. His everlasting love is just amazing………

Its been 4 yrs since I recorded my very own video, nt sure whether shd I continue to do so, but then here’s a simple message, a simple text, a simple song, a simple guy, with strong love for Him, with a crappy electrics skill…thank you Lord for bringing me through everything ya…this is for u only, Lord, blowing my kisses to u, take care of me ya…^.^ Alex.

Lithe Stability…

It has been a cold, winter-like weather for the past long weeks. Temperament..yet phlegmatic individual like me would just breezed through these calm and affectionate weather, softly lingering around me like the fragrance of roses. Its been tractable and docile to lie down emotionlessly at those comfy bed inheriting those fresh sumptuous air around…while waiting for the time to pass….and pass…………till at a moment of time when I realized its been too sweet and comfy to just been impassive and morose..sullen..gloomy…

Next chapter of event would be little guy like me waking up with sleepy rabbit-like eye hovering around like the spirit, didn’t capture that incoming time moment of intensity schedule, but just relaxing and enjoying that particular frame of time, as the title goes, with lithe stability…..4pm in this breezy evening filled with harmony chirping sound of birds lingering around just….just makes me feel insoucient.  Melodious with dulcet singing of wind blowing around fairly with ease just makes one’s soul calm down, refocusing on the next event going on….

Sometimes I’ve been too obsequious in certain things without realizing its been a while and changes need to be done, or rather keep it right with God. Its returning back to Him, back to his lovely yet gentle embrace that is far…far more truthful than any other things in life, things u pursue after, things u sought after, things u wish for, things u dream of….and even things u care the most….sought after His love, with a pure heart, and u shall see His riches, His glory, His mercy pouring upon u endlessly and all these things shall be added unto you…and those joy and love that u will be experiencing are truly, truly the very best that you can hold onto…even tears of joy starts dropping down, into the very wells of my eyes, the very deep space in my heart just filled with the hovering of His love, His spirit, enjoying these lil’ moment of absolute zenith peace in my very own heart…and soul….

Being sensitive to the soft gentle touch and voice from the spirit is a key to your lithe stability as the title goes by….gentle and tickling yet beautiful voice of life breathing into your ear, passing by your auditory canal, and striking the very deep in your brain, your cerebrum, your thoughts, …….it starts to build up the stability of yours little by little, reminiscing all those little stuff that had been cruelly kept aside in the past by our own insensitiveness. Ohh, how the little angel of Him has been comforting us, reminding us since we open up our heart and our ear to just listen to Him…

Our very own etiquette maxims are sometimes been cared upon too much in a certain state of bringing us down instead of pursuing after Him. The very trifling things that we sought after are insignificant in His eyes, yet we still unknowingly following it without realizing how unimportant is that till we opened up our eyes. Too much stability and how firm we are in life doesn’t reflect who we are in Christ, unintentionally makes proud and selfishness creeping slowly like the first sins that had ever been committed…luring us into the very deep of darkness.  Shifting our thoughts and actions towards Him, and Him alone shall overcome all these, even if u already knew about this, yet it’s the gentle reminder from the spirit that these are the things that u should know, and by the wisdom that He gave us, shall makes us the great overcomer in life……

Its 4.30pm, spending half an hour crapping…teehee….its isn’t just a mere crap of words, but rather enjoying in His wonderful blessings and love that makes our life really counts, so much so that the bond is getting stronger and stronger, each and everyday of our lives….smile, for God has given us the very pleasing gift of life, that is your lovely sweet lil smile…^.^ Alex.

Wishes & Dreams

 

Its been a while since I left my blog untouched, winded around the hardwire, stranded upon like a free-flying bird stuck upon certain tree branches.  Indeed it had been a hard time and brought upon much strain and tense chilling up my veins.  Going through the state of emotions so deeply pressed upon not to mention the players involved, had been an acquisition of myself, or rather being taken over, being stopped momentarily for a moment of time frame, being halted of my own pace, being relentlessly stressed up with others who acted so called vigilantly upon watching every move and step and even every contacts that I made.

Shouldn’t be much of a problem for anyone, anyone in this earth to have its own wishes and dreams no matter how truthful or faithful to its own faith.  No matter how much thoughts are poured upon, no matter how much pains and sacrifices you made, its of no intention in terms of harming others, why?  Wanna know why?  The title speaks for itself, do you find anyone who willingly sacrifices their own dreams and instead of pursuing for it, you are influenced and lastly halted just because of no reasons?  Guess it ain’t and not going to happen for those who have dreams.

People might have a vast range of thoughts and so called intellectual opinions to fight with your dreams, doesn’t matter how your dreams and wishes appear like, some will try their very best to oppose it and when it comes to their own, they will push so hard and spending so much time blasting out their intellects and so called righteousness just to defend it.  How funny is this thing happen to all mankind which includes you and me.  Certain reference or leverage had been called upon and done through non-stop inspection upon you.  Doesn’t matter where you are, they seems to know everything and anything you think and do.  Its crazy isn’t it, sometimes we talk about freedom in Christ and be free of all bondages and yet people are trying so hard pouring their thoughts on others, knowingly or unknowingly stopped the flows and work of Christ upon us. 

Learning is a process that had to be gone through not only in terms of academic performance or just how well you win a conversation/thoughts or how good are you trying so hard to justify yourself until the end of the world, (laugh at this for a while, guess I’m trying to be a bit hypocrite here, blah..) you never gain any approval for it.  Yes, 90 percent above of all approval are co-related with hatred and envyness.  Truthful approval hardly acknowledged nowadays.  Let alone your wishes and dreams, as the title stated.  Its has gone so far, so far away from this reality world, seemingly flashing out, bursting away in a millisecond, care-less of your thoughts and time.  Pursuing for it? Nah, at some moment of truth, you will be stopped.  Trying to be pushful and acting strongly for it? Self satisfaction alone is what you will get in the end.  Not to be negative or what, the world just revolves around and around.  People just have their thoughts pouring out and out like the fountains and most waterfall that you can imagine. 

Indeed its had been a long way to go, I’m just 22, just.  Some thoughts its time to do that, to pursue after certain things, well, I have my own, and if you were in my shoes, you weren’t want to tie the shoelace, let alone walk with it, if you know what I’m trying to say.  The moment of truth had long gone, gone after the wind.  Its been a long journey of this life, and yet it seems so fulfilling.  Fulfilling for yourself is good enough rather than trying every methods and old-school stuff that you can possibly learn in this earth to satisfy others.

Wishes and dreams, here you are, positive thinking and relaxing all the way from your creation and there is no end for it.  People had been using both of you for their own and for others.  How unfair to you, wishes and dreams.  Stay strong and steadfast, for one day, you might be just the sparkling pearl that stay shining at some point of one’s life.  Alex

Intermittent Route

Coming up at this stage of life and moment, even at this mind jabbing distinctive transfer of time frame, framing on myself has becoming a touch and go situation whereby listening to people has always been a priority till the stage of becoming one of them.  For the phrase ‘way of life’ has been so intellectually debated and poured out as if its some thoughts of wisdom kept on lingering on each others mind like a perpetrator.  A perpetual character is somehow surfaced among issue of becoming more and more self-upholding.  Its all begun with bringing up as well as circle of friends.

Somehow gaining a simple motivating rotor is much more crucial than just justifying oneself to elevate our mood at that particular moment of time.  Restricting self in giving and accepting compliments have become too stringent as people are beginning to bring up as many reasons as possible to somehow crooked up words that you have spoken.  Intermittent route as a way of escaping from all of these has been a priority in many people’s lives as in withdrawing oneself to a so called wilderness in order to accomplish so called self indulgence and self priority moment of truth.

Does all these make sense at all?  Does doing good deeds earn us salvation?  Or does our ‘intellectual way of life’ guaranteed us a bright future? And if that future of brightness is just our short life on earth, what the significance of that……it’s a shame to get to know someone who are so into this life until the stage of silence, like the sound of bullets injected out from a silencer, bringing up the whole atmosphere of silenceness just to install a wise thinking or movement for self?  What a waste is that.  Considering others better than yourself,  the writer himself struggles sometimes in this particular moment of time frame.  And that’s why a shifting of time or simply deletion of time frame is so important as to move on with our lives and leaving back what is over. 

Its 10.30pm, Sat night, after service, what a time to regain back my consciousness, feeling the freshness of splashing thought running through my room, its an atmosphere of greatness surrounded with joy and passion for the Lord, as the Sprit leads me, oh, and great joy just overflowing in me every moment.  The word ‘backslides’ just peeping through my mind, my cerebellum….instead of looking back, press forwards towards that goal, have you ever regret your position now? Think of this while you are alone with Him, calming down your mind, asking Him for the road, the way, the life and the truth of all these. 

It’s a great moment to endure in this challenging yet fulfilling life, filled with His purposes for us to finish the race………..above all, Your Grace Is Enough, Lord…Alex

The Mis- Term

Mislead, misuse, misunderstand, misguide, credibility of those who invented those words should be questioned.  At this particular moment of time, of neither side preferentially biased or chosen, given the freedom of thought and speech, to an extend of falsifying terms have been a common so called ‘mind truancy’ assets as in view of most people and sometimes by myself, or rather the writer himself.

The act of valor, so called perpetual harness of mind blowing universal ladder ‘climbed’ till the end full with morale and self-faith assurance is itself a destructible act.  No one is self assured until that assurance given by the Lord actually penetrate into thy heart without winning any arguments or snatching ones’ thoughts away.  Its spiritually fatal to overuse the vast range of mis-term in every single day of our lives either in speech or in our action.  Its a gentle yet stern reminder of me and everyone in this area of interpreting every corner of the context of our lives, be it universal alignment ways of thought, common speech rehearsed during meetings, in depth preaching, or maybe just a simple communication taking place between us.  Leading is only applicable as in persona of who leads who, or who is the leader.  The great thing that we can see from here is THE leading by His word.  Fatal way shall be manifested through a deep and thorough conversation leader, typing leader, or rather speech winners, I shall called.  Words spoken will become distinct when it is spoken at the right timing, reminders for those readers to never speculate about anything negatively as the world is already so crooked and so called wise to be able to think, handle and voice out their speculated thoughts.  And then it all begins, the mis-term family tree……

Question is, how about speculating on His word? Well, depends on how readers interpret the term speculate.  Sometimes, words are termed and being understand in a rather not pleasing way, either to themselves or others.  Well, most people, regardless of age, clarify things through so called experiences.  Doesn’t matter whether good or bad experiences, whatever it is, its all fall upon judging your living environment.  Meaning of word, or simply the dictionary itself is man-made, man-written and man-thought.  Can ‘speculate’ be the nice guy? Yes it is, yes it is.  Even the great magician and witchcraft artist Daud Tony, who is a ‘santet’ master himself after being saved by the Lord, was being thrown with tankful of questions by who? By the scholars and those with doctorate level of philosophy in theology.  How he handle them? Well, asking God to help, that’s the only thing that we hope for, the ultimate help from God.  Never ever underestimate the faith that you have, hard work with faith shall not put you in vain, as He says, your work in the Lord shall not be in vain and you shall not be put to shame.  Back to the black magic master, well, answering questions regarding the deepest things about Him show you that those people came to learn more about God, some readers might speculate that “ Well, maybe they do this just to satisfy themselves in asking so called wise questions or just to justify themselves”.  Sometimes, we humans are too fast in making decisions, or rather helping others to make decisions, in other words, we are a bit speedy in making conclusions and judging others by just based on our experiences, age and circumstances gain and learnt from relationships.

Just by an addition of ‘mis’ to word such as understand, guide, lead can be very discouraging especially for those who regard this life as temporary.  People ought to give them a piece of their mind, well, that’s one of our human weaknesses that is kinda hard to be excluded from our lives.  That mind piece of us will either ruin ourselves or ruining someone else lives.  At this point, people might be judging you of acting wise or having snobbish character, but what we can do?  Hypnotise them? Give them a punch? Arguing with your own knowledge? Starting a fight? Or like some other mental calmness guy who is so good in saying, “ Chill up la bro”.  That’s a pity, too quick to judge.  As simple as that.  Further elaborations will just getting us nowhere.

Relationships sometimes or rather most of the times, ended abruptly or slowly when it is in contact with the ‘mis’ family.  Nemesis of relationship itself, it is often overlooked in some way or other, that result in serious I called ‘earthly vocab combat’  that ruin people’s lives.  Relating with one another is often counterfeited by another party, not necessarily human, but stuffs like gadgets, money and tech geeks.  Further details can be ignored in this area, as once again, if you are not a part of any problem nor you are a part of solutions to that problem, gossiping arises.  Avoid this.

Whoosh, fingers starting to trigger badly, but with functioning mind….hmm…emo? Nada, just relax, folks, stop and smell the roses….be still and meditate upon His words…..open for speculations and questions asking.  Readers who have interest in giving a piece or thousands pieces of their mind, bienvenidos.  Have a good night sleep friends, God bless….and be holy, as the Lord is holy.  Alex

Spare

A sparing, doubtless sparing, high-end morale, just walked out of it without a scratch.  That very moment pitched you to a state of so called trauma, ended abruptly just like that.  Safety measures are those that kept you alive, His words are those that kept you in the walk, kept you out of doubt and fear, kept you fulfilling you purposes, and that’s worth much more than anything else.

Its half past ten driving along with cozy, breath-taking air, kept on reminiscing what happens past day, past weeks, even past months of my lives.  Never cross in my mind that something that is so struckful will ever happen.  Giving all hope and trust unto Him, I ended up abruptly, merely hanging on from that very fall, that very fall into the drain.  It’s just nerve catching and spins filled, pressurized by the blood that drains all over inside my vessels.  And suddenly, consciousness falling apart, tear away with no mercy, ended up balancing myself in the middle of nowhere, no cars, no traffics, no sounds, just the rolling of wheels, trance-state of mind wondering where am I at that moment of time………

Samaritans as described, apart from Jewish, God chosen people, with a heart full of compassions even we are the Gentiles, they are the Gentiles as well, oh gosh, just mere tears flowing down as the tracks of alphabets flowing along by my little fingers, they are those that pulled me out of that little mighty strong vehicle.  But the one that safe me is the one that is much more greater than all, for He has overcome the world, and is defending the victory just as you and I.  Angels do appear in our life, small and cute little angels, far away from those fairytales, far away from children tales telling by young adults sometimes, that actually blinded most of us and kept us from the truth, the way and the living One that lay down all His rights, literally stretching out His hands, saving those who are saved and yet to be saved, I do prefer the phrase yet to be rather than unsaved.

Laying down on bed, with green shirts and pyjamas-like pants, typical of ‘men’s hospital’, there am I, turning my head around, with a bit of what I had been diagnosed with, so called cerebral concussion, are those moaning sounds, sounds of life-sparing, sounds of pain oozing out from their very vocals, with imparted screws and metal plates, looks eerie to me that very moment and for the next day.  Finally, I got myself crawling out from the bed, to the nearby washroom, get myself a pee, a nice peeeeee……and I was discharged soon after I just about to enjoy the free stay…xD

A life sparing moment has just begun, a journey that will reminded you and me of His love, His mercy and His thoughts and ways in our very lives.  Moving on, as His words say, “Fear not, for I am with you, to the very end of the age.”.  Alex

Art of Sound

Despite all the talks and murmurings around about the so called ‘age of the geek’ stuff, pause for that for a moment and let the art of sound, the ding and the dang and the oozeness if there such a word, just to flow around and encircle the atmosphere to an extend of nurturing health and providing comfort.  Living in a tension-filled place and I don’t mean it specifically at your profession area or so called study discomfortness, but rather the general earthly place that we are born in, has given much haste to humanity pace of life.  The geek, jeez, blasting pick-a-tech quotes have in one way or other, tagging people to the fact that we are living in the end world now have certain way or other affect our daily thinking, actions and way of living.

From major keys and scales to minor ones, from pentatonic variation to some blues’ pattern scales, arpeggios, these theories in music have been founded and given much shot by major musicians throughout the world including the great Beethoven, flawless movement of scales by Maxim, and the jamming guy who inspires a lot of people in the world, Joe Satriani.  The blending of this art has been a perpetual succession and has given us a time for settling ourselves into a state of mind where it provides soothness and generates calmness in us. 

There’s cons to every major events and occasions in the temporary world we are living in now and that include the theory of the art of sound itself.  Some major singers, musicians, performers, dancers and some stage-controlling people have made a huge impact either in affecting people’s lives, their thinking and including installing an institution of so called faith elevating mood even if this lasted only from a range of 5 minutes to hours.  Not to mention their names or surnames, not to impart condemnation to people, things that they given to us through their so called famous outfits and a vast range of misleading act of faith acted upon the art of sound itself have much impacted people’s lives when they are in cars, working or for some students, have their own ear-stuffing gadget filled with those.  How bout some stage performers that had not been so eye catching until their demise were announced publicly to the world and caught so many people’s ears and their lives.   Some ‘lady’ or the famous ‘backdance’ that had given their vows to people through their astonishing performances have been a major songs that people listen to nowadays without realizing their real and truthful meaning as well as their internal impacts that will result in much ‘sufferings’ later in their lives.

The feelings of mundane and bored have surrounded me much even during this much anticipated holiday.  Somehow in times of despair, prayer and musics are a good blend and be in mind that not all musics are good, as simple as that.  The world might suggests to you a couple of ‘nice’ musics but don’t fall into those temptation as He will provide a way through for us if we just open our heart to trust Him, accepting what is good and shunt away from what is bad.  Whoosh, trigger fingers stuff had caught me for months, gonna relax and enjoy the so called ‘the art of music’.  Happy holiday to all.  Alex

The Serb’s Djoker

Sounds like jokes, well he is a joker, a well-known one.  Jokes around courts, making fun, indeed a great moment of imitator and hell of a steel in court.  A Serb, one the greatest in his nation, has brought upon glory to his country, besides the mighty powerhouse Nadal, vast range shot by Fed-ex and propelling wheel of patience shown by another British man, Murray.  His dominance on court and out-court has been flawless and flawless indeed when he showed his superiority in a gruelling full sets match against the muscle-hitter Spaniard.  How on earth he survives both semis and final against two top players with full sets?

An imitator of Maria and the Spaniard himself has been a controversy yet exciting one that has been shown on court.  Maria, with her loud anguish-like shout while walking back and forth to the baseline and hurling her right hand along her hips while serving has been well followed by the Djoker.  The mighty Spaniard, who’s on his never-give-up will and mental strength, scratching his backs, his lower backs I mean, guess habits die pretty hard huh..xD..as well as panting around like animal while swirling his long side hair to the back of his head and his peculiar way of serving, different types on his first and second serve have all been imitated so well by the Djoker himself. 

Instead of showing his pride and strength on unnecessary stuff like comparing himself with others or how well certain people can cope with mental issues or some over-rated stuff like ‘beating someone up at the corner of the street’ or ‘prevailing against others in terms of exam grades’ which is a common phrase and situation lingering around schools, colleges and universities, he busted up and fired his will with his famous TOP rackets over the court.  Excellency in certain area like sports need a lot of courage, will and ammendment to be made each time a point was loss.  On top of that, we need support.  And the greatest person who can provide ALL THESE is the Lord himself.  Its amazing to see this joker moves around the court in a flawless manner couples  with the faith that he and his family have and the hunger for the Lord which brings him much success.  Instead of offering stuff to deity, which ‘most people’ do as in expectation that their will and request be fulfilled, praying to the dead, or even saying chants to justify themselves, he put his trust, faith, hope and love to Him that gives assurance to His people anywhere and everywhere.

His most recent success of winning a Grandslam title by beating his nemesis has open up the eyes of most of his opponents of how can a person be so sophisticated on court and overcome the same player for 3 grand events in a row in which the Djoker himself has created a history on this occasion.  Trusting in someone or putting your faith up instead of believing yourself and trusting others which many earthly motivator or some psychologist will have to offer has been a crucial point in life, a turning point of getting success.  Those who have watched him played should have notice this. 

No matter how much effort someone has put, like the ancient Greek who carved for themselves an image with an inscription ‘To The Unknown God’ in which they put their faith and trust and when Paul himself had to justify to that and show them who is that unknown God tat the ancient Greek scholars believe in had opened up doors and minds to most of the literate Greek and Romans at that time and their efforts are not forsaken.  His flawless forehand and groundstrokes as well as his movement to the net court has been a tough one to match with.  Such a will and faith shall be a reminder to all believers that one shall get up from his comfort zone, stand up for Him, and be a sophisticated ambassador for Him.

A man of faith, a man of wisdom himself on court and in his expertise, and a man of exceeding love for the Lord.  The Serb, the Djoker, Novak Djokovic.  Alex

Mentality vs truth

The greatness of mankind shall fall.  Reason is due to mankind themselves and shall be or precisely, already been manifested through their different and so called ‘truth’ behavioural patterns or simply means their manner.  Perhaps humanity need to reminisce their past and find out the real truth behind their mentality motivated actions.  And it has all begun when the foetus brain is completely formed in their mother’s womb.  Either it develops into what has been expected or the other way around, it’s all has been planned as He says, even before you were born, your identity, birth and the very being of yourselves has been known and well planned.

Thinking patterns have been a huge controversy and been discussed wisely even among the elite to the very society which we are living in right now.  Like it or not, we ourselves sometimes get involved in this very much until at a certain threshold, we brings upon judgement to ourselves as well as to others.  Some might consider it as an elevation to their faith, some believes it has got to do with increment in wisdom, while the typical mankind will view and use it as a rotor or rather powerhouse engine to move their life forwards, thinking that it provides sufficient push force and expecting it to be a process of life changing. 

The way we treat others, communicating and socialising among our known and unknown as well as yet to be known person have in some way or other, being manipulated by ourselves rather than others.  Different behavioural patterns have been manifested in this area whereby we rather believes in ourselves more than others and putting ourselves in a rather higher position as to win a conversation or just to provide soothing effect to our heart and soul.  It might not be as soothing as it sounds to be or as the person thinks it should be, but rather expecting what is the circumstances that shall prevail at the end of the day might have to be considered. 

Arguments and misunderstandings have often grasp hold of mankind until a certain stage where it leaps to hatred and grudges that brings upon unforgiveness and pain in their lives.  Certain people view it as a norm or rather ‘chill up stuff’ that make themselves feel better, in an understandable way.  It’s hard sometimes when someone has to put in timeless efforts just to give assurance to others to what is right and wrong in an unconscious manner.  The writer himself struggles in this area and ammendment has to be made by Him as a process of restoration of thinking.  If winning an argument or conversation or even patterns of thinking have been so important to you and loses a relationship in the end, how sad it is, how sad it is.

Certain understandable and regarded as well-writing pieces of well-known authors have often brought upon misleading issues and controversies to us until a point whereby people regard it as a faith that they shall believe in.  As you can clarity from here is that people believes in what they saw rather than believing in things that are unseen but eternal.  The writer himself shall not quote any books or quotes or specific writings in this area as he is not part of the problem.  If anyone who is in part of any problem but not a part in solution to that very problem shall brings upon gossiping which is another huge issues to be talk about.

Truth, on the other hand, surpasses mentality.  How bout way of life? Certain people believes in certain way of living either created by themselves or some famous old and modern scholars who think that this it it, this is the truth behind all truth.  Well, how truthful is that verbalised ‘truth’?  Or it just got to do with a piece or a few pieces of someone’s mind that has gotten into your very inner heart and penetrating into your soul like a double-edged sword?  Think again.

Considering facts as truth is far more virtual than depending on certain arts, writings or believes as a way of living life.  Are you in doubt of the things that you believe in right now or are you clear of what you are believing in right now?  If ego and self-respect have been so important to you and you regard it as a key that is capable to unlock everything in this entire universe for what you believes in, try to  pause in that and get yourselves a cup of coffee, relax and reminisce.  Listening and opening your heart to accept is then crucial to know and later on differentiate between mortality and immortality.

That’s enough for the day, shall pause to relax and go into the Word which has been made flesh to us and it will be a moment of truth, process of refining as well as moulding our thoughts, minds and soul into becoming an ambassador for Christ.  Still its Chinese New Year, dragon’s year or leviathan’s year, but hardly can see any of this species on this surface of the earth, and the truth is? That’s depending on you to figure out deeply.  Have a nice day ahead.  Alex

Holiday

Some says it’s the time for relaxing, enjoying and just do whatever cool stuff they want.  Some says its a festive moment cherishing together with own family.  Others define it as a moment of suffering, emoing and indulging their mind and thought into some so called ‘deep moment of truth’ while reasoning whole lot of universal thoughts just to spend their idle moment ‘as wisely as possible’.  Well, as for the writer, there’s nothing much to be cool or chilling about, far more elevating my thought to certain extend of being a moment enjoyer.  By the way, not as what u think of as ‘in the saddle’ of driving yourself into certain responsibility as to settle down ur mind as calmly as possible, well, guess the phrase ‘chill up bro’ ain’t gonna work for me right now.

Amidst peace, songs of this upcoming great festive of the asian chinese had been lingering around my ear, thought as well as my sound mind.  Its a great feeling of peace in my heart to be together once again with the ones that u had been with since you are born, a.k.a family.  Take a good look at this word created by the Lord, well, he created all things, just to be firm in our thought.  FAMILY – Father and Mother I Love You.  That’s the family bond that we have since we were born into this earth.  How great is the will of the Lord for the ones that he chose to love before we even know Him, before we even heard about Him, for His plans are always good and prospering to us. 

Comer or dining has been a common word being used and practised when reunion comes together and by the way, what’s that cracking noise that I’ve just heard? Guess it started even before 12 huh? Sometimes I find it annoying while at some moment of the state of mind, it reminds me of the creation of the Lord to make this earth a beautiful place for we to live in it, isn’t that so?  Well, where did I left just now? Oh yes, reunion huh, reunion as it is, blending of love, fellowship and relationship as it is all about.  The Lord creates relationships, restores them and taking them to a greater level or heights.  Family has been a crucial element for every mankind but for those who don’t have one, well, prepare for the eternal one will ya? That’s the greatest reunion that we can have folks, together with all believers, together as one.

Blurps….oops, dinner time ends, its time to let go unwanted gases and sounds, ha.  Well, great dishes we had, drinks, chatting around, reminiscing lives, sounds old, haha.  Enlightening sometimes just to spend this moment with my beautiful family each and everyone of us blessed with different gifts.  Excelling in life requires one to use his or her gifts well enough, be sophisticated, motivated and move on as He leads us through.  Guess its time to spend with family huh, writings shall resume back and I myself don’t even know when, as He leads, of course.  Bling-bling, some dishes that I savour on New Year’s Eve.  Happy Chinese New Year folks and friends.  Alex.

Friends

 

What about them, or simply what to describe about them.  Generally, some are good, some are not-so-good, while some are wise in their own eyes.  Make it simple, its hard to differentiate and even harder to make it simple.  Some are like a plunger or looter, some are born with a caring heart, some are helper but anticipator, a.k.a people with certain levels of sincerity only.  Indeed, He is good, as He has shown me all these sorts of bro’s, dudes, pales, partners, or just friends. 

The annoying ones are the ones who only come to u and visit u when they have intention to slow you down if u are a student or tear u up and bring you down if u are a worker, co-worker I mean. (The most annoying ones are yet to come)  Those that will only making use of u are the ones that mostly wise in their own-self or feel that they are good, but the truth is, are they?  U know, some might be Hollywood-actors, Grammy’s winners or some legitimate talents show champs, and then they will shout in their hearts, ‘Here comes the Champs’ just to clarify and so called sanctify themselves.  Worst still, u know, literally i mean worst still, which suppose to shoot someone hearts like a double-edged sword, gosh, are those that consider themselves u are their best friend.  Wondering why huh?  Simple, if u are weak, u are easier to be manipulated  and at the end of the day, they will shunt from u instead of u shunning away from them.  That’s why I prefer the quote which stated that sometimes bad friends make the best good friends, if they are bad enough, they will be somehow be your best friends.  Agree?

Ever meet with friends who are friend-grifters? I have.  And here it comes, the ‘yet-to-be part.  U know, sometimes, its a matter of the hearts when u want to make friends or be friends or strengthen your relationship with someone, and if anyone of u think that relationship its all about bgr, think again.  There is only two kinds of relationships in this world, one is with Him and one is with men, which include XY.  Forfeit either one, u will ended up worst.  Its hard to ‘step in one’s worlds, be with them or convince them’ literally.  They can behave so well that u can’t differentiate between wolves or panda, but the zebra colour-like organism is not that flawless after all huh? 

God helps those who helps themselves, agree? Well, not for me, not now, not ever.  Quotes from tv series ‘Leverage’ had been a popular one these days, beside from other I called ‘wise-in-their-own-eyes-quotes’, which only serves their purpose or purposes for those who need to be serve either healing of their hearts or matching with their thoughts.  Truth is, He doesn’t do that.  Search for His hearts, His thoughts, His ways, why? Basically, His ways and thoughts are higher than ours, pals or ‘pals’.  He came, He comes, and will be coming as a server, not to be served, for those who can’t even afford to help themselves, and that’s why He mention to us that He wanna visit those that couldn’t feed themselves, couldn’t even clothes themselves, the poorest of mankind, the bad guys literally.  He doesn’t need to lift up those who are having tonnes of so-called root of all evil stuff, or those that are so good in helping themselves, He doesn’t need to, for He came to seek and to save the lost, to lift up the humble but brings down the proud, to minister to those who are in needs and to give sufficient grace and mercy through obedience to those who are crying up to Him, for His yolks are lighter than ours, shout Heaven yeah instead of Hell yeah for these.  For He is our best friend of all.

Well, judging others brings judgement upon ourselves.  Enough for now, keep pressing on for Him, not to be wise in our own eyes.  Keep your heads and eyes up, focus on Him, why focus on non-lasting crafting, illusions, all sorts of non-permanent stuff huh?  Friends, dear friends, know where u stands is the most important than knowing what u are capable to think.  There are ways that seems right to men, but in the end it only leads to death.  Love you, all friends.  Alex

New Year, New Season, New Chapter

Beginning peace.  Starting well off.  Ain’t bombastic.  Courage to move on.  Its a new year, new season and a whole new life.  Easy to read, understand, nothing to be proud of.  Crazy? Well, i don’t think so.  Short and simple.  Cute and adorable.  Oops.  Yup, its boring.  Never ask u to read though.  Had been through heaven and hell, roses and thorns, lilies and mud, above all, eternal peace.  21st century though, blast tech, creepy skills to work on, sound mind to write on and thought to be think of…its an never-ending life for me, yet. 

Stepping in this manner, manner of thought, whether its real or realm, physical or spiritual, hallucination perhaps, ….perhaps.  Peeps, or nerd, who gives your uncontrollable thought on this writing, think again.  Its had been moody, greedy, stucky, unfunctioning brain to its peak.  Count on number of ‘thought’ i wrote huh? Or..or just adoring yourself for the purpose of adoring yourself…again, its gloomy season had past, had become bygones, in a flush.  Flush in bets, poker.  Playing with it though.  Fun, yet flesh consuming, like consuming fire.  Hillsong United again, consuming fire. 

No pictures, words enough to describe.  Peaking at this moment, or rather momentarily visualizing, not yet everything, at least there’s something.  Hardship endures, lordship awaiting.  Starting off weirdly, its a shame, but the Lord never put His people to shame.  Strengthen your feet, guiding your thoughts, light to your path.  Again, eternal peace.  Giving, leading, enduring.  Its all that you have. 

Awake people, looking at ‘it’ again? It will destroy your mind, your behaviour, patterns of thoughts.  Discern, o man, to His hearts and to His thoughts, for He has overcome the world.  Smile, for salvation is here and it is now and its here….Alex
