God's Revelation

In His Time

In His time, in His time, He makes all things beautiful in His time. Lord, please show me everyday As You’re teaching me Your way, That you do just what You say in Your time. 

In Your time, in Your time, You make all things beautiful in Your time. Lord, my life to You I bring,

May each song I have to sing, be to you a lovely thing in your time

Lord please show me everyday, As you're teaching me your way

That you do just what you say, in your time

In your time, in your time, You make all things beautiful, in your time

Lord my life to you I bring, May each song I have to sing, 

Be to you a lovely thing, in your time

Be to you a lovely thing, in your time

Just like how God had communicated with me through the heart and mind, and through dreams, God will reveal himself to you in your life as well.  He will do it in his time, as long as you sincerely ask him.  "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened."  (Matthew 7:7-8)

"God, please show yourself to me."  This was what I asked for when I was young.  But God did not show himself to me then.  Perhaps God wants me to learn and experience life first and finally reveal himself in his time.  Anyway, God showed up, communicated with me and what's next?  

I need God to show me the way.  Richard had left the family and he is now married.  Soon after the paper work is done, he got married!  He wore a cross on his neck.  Is that what a disciple of Jesus should do?  

Yesterday I looked through the old stuff and I found a photograph of my first holy communion.  It says God Lives and God Loves.  Take and eat, This is my body.  Take and drink, This is my blood.  Four decades ago, I was at the church receiving my first holy communion.  What does it mean by God Lives?  I do not even know.  Now God still lives, but why is there a broken marriage now.  We spent so much money on the wedding photographs and it was kept in the cupboard to collect dust.  Then in the end we parted.  He said Isaac is my birthday present, and he left us for another woman...

I need God to show me the way, guide me to my next chapter of life.

A Personal Witness

 

    Article by Terry Hapstack - A Personal Witness

Come across this article about the author's personal experience with God.  It was rather similar to mine as I recall and it was so nice to know that I am not the only one.  It is so nice to read of such Faith story.  

In the year 2006, I started blogging.  I started with Blogsvertise where I wrote about why I started blogging.  I remembered my bank account only got 3 digit figures.  Richard was working from home too.  He helped me to publish my blogs at peacebella.com, peaceinspire.com, peacemotivation.com and peaceinspiration.com besides all the blogspot.com.  Soon,  I had advertisers came looking for me and I have opportunities to blog for advertisers too.  

While blogging, writing everyday on the computer, I experienced something unusual.  "Music" or "Tune" just came popping out from the heart and brain.  That was on 25 July 2007, Richard's birthday.  I did not know what tune was that.  But I know it was my sister's or brother's song, songs which they listened to.  I called my sister, asked her, but she did not tell me the answer.  Later I searched the internet, YouTube, and eventually found out that the song was Chiquitita.  I was so touched to know the song, first time I listened to the song and the title means little girl.  

Similarly, the author of the article experienced " a tune popped into her head, like a jingle you hear on television that stays with you the entire day"...  see the image below:

Peace beyond understanding by Terry Hapstack

 That was how God was trying to contact me and the author.  The lyrics of the song Chiquitita was like what God was trying to tell me.

   

 The story behind the song Chiquitita -- Chiquitita is a song by the legendary Swedish pop group ABBA. Lyrically, Chiquitita sees the singer encouraging a good friend Chiquitita, who is downcast and sorrowful, to look at the brighter side of life and not let their sorrow to enchain and control them. 

Lyrics:    

Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong?
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
And the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving

Chiquitita, you and I cry
And the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love's a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
And the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving

Chiquitita, you and I cry
And the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

MBS Staycation

 

MBS hotel stay -- can see the big balcony

Had MBS staycation for several times.  This time is the first time I get a big balcony like that shown in the photograph above.  Watch the video of the whole room here.  It was so nice.  Not only was it spacious, they even have sofa for you to sit at the balcony.  There was also a side table for you to put drinks and food.  Staying at MBS, you also can book slots for the swimming pool, gym and spa.  It was very useful time spent over there.  The most fun time spend there was going to the casino!

Food Court at MBS - Singapore Fried Noodle

Yesterday being Wednesday, the food court was not crowded.  This is the second time I going to buy Soft shell crab fried hokkien noodle.  It is expensive and cost $18, but it was good.  The soft shell crab was very crispy.  They packed the soft-shell crab separately as shown below in the paper box.  I asked the stallholder to put in 2 scoop of chilli.  Then I add in 5 small lime!  It was nice with more lime.  The noodle tasted spicy and a bit sour and saltiness from the crab.

Bird Nest

  

The Sunbird's nest was seen in my corridor garden

When I was in Primary one, I read in the Chinese Textbook about bird nest on the tree.  After school, I looked up on trees to spot bird nest.  Until when I was a teenage, and even older, I never even seen any bird nest on trees. It was until I was 'reborn' and I started to see more birds, more miracles in life.  I also get to see different types of bird nests in real life.  

Last Friday, Isaac came home and he was so excitedly told me that there was a bird nest again!  I quickly went to see.  Indeed there was a bird nest, almost completed by the sunbirds.  A few days ago, there was not any bird nest yet!  How amazing the birds are.  They can build their nest within days only. 

 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”           ~ John 2:19

Last year, we kept looking at the bird nest, so anxious to see the eggs and babies.  In the end, we caused the birds to lost their eggs.  This time we must give them more privacy, more space, to keep their eggs and to see their little babies in time soon.
