Why I go to church?

There are friends who ask me why I want to go to church. I haven't given them a proper answer yet. I shall answer it here. I go to church to feed my soul with God's words, so that it can enable to be a better fighter for the week ahead. "In the world but not of the world." How easy it is to say this out. It really hard to do it; really hard especially in this postmodern world.

It is like refilling oil for my lamp that is sufficient for a week long (or perhaps less especially with so many temptations around), lighting my surrounding. It is like providing strength for a goodfight needed in the week ahead.

Today is resurrection day. It reminds all people of all nations and all tongues of the hope that was promised 2000 years ago.

I wish all of you well and have a good week ahead!

Investment / make money books VS Christian related books

Recently I have some inner conflicts whether to choose those make money (e.g investment) type of book to read or choose books related to my own faith to read. I have spent many years devoting my free time reading the my own faith books. When I see people who use the same years investing their time to books and article about financial stuff and become more knowledge on making money and more better off, I would sometimes envy them and sometimes regret why I did not follow them.

Lord, please delivers me from temptation.

Amen.

True colours shown

Haiz.. finally he speaks. Actuallly there is a class gathering tomorrow. I don't feel like going. He always adopts the "You go then I go" policy. He even encourage me to go since many are going and we haven't seen them for years. When I told him I am not going, he insisted not to go because I didn't but he sounded like he wanted to go. So I encouraged him to go lo and keep me updated what is happening in their life. He told me these and I never expect these from him:

"why shd i? unless u pay me for doing so....nothing is free in this world"

"u want (me) to go and collect info for you foc....no way man!"


I'm quite disappointed with what he told me. I have got nothing to gain knowing how is everybody doing right now. It is good to be aware how my classmates are doing right now. Also, it does not tally with what he said "It is good that we go since we haven't seen them for years."

It seems to be a follow up of my previous post. Finally I wake up from my long sleep . . . trying hard to tell myself that this is not how the society works . . .

I begin to realize ...

Regardless of race and religion,

I begin to realize that it never pays to be a good, nice and honest person ...
It is just a superficial way of projecting ourselves out of rules governed and required by the society as a whole. It does not benefit us unless the "rules of exchange" set in - people waiting for this to take place until they are sick of each other.

I begin to realize that it never pays to concern others ...
People who play concern are due to intelligence purposes -- out to collect information and at the same time to kill time. Some may act out of rules set by the society. Some waiting for the time when they can benefit from it.

I begin to realize that all along I am sleeping in the lala land that think otherwise ... all along, I have been like a fool... suddenly wake up from a long sleep, realizing that the world is even more a frightening place to live in than I had before painted .. All along, I have seen and believed the false side of people - the side which their inner voice call them to be in but failed to achieve. I am wrong about many things I used to believe in and think of.

No matter what has happened to the people, the society and the world around, I know the faith that I have firmly believe in is unshakable. I will stand by it even if I have given in to the other voice - with one leg being shot, limping towards the destination. The light may be getting dimmer but it will never be put out.



Digress ...

End of my 3443 night shift duty

Today is my rest day to adjust back to my normal sleeping hours. Tomorrow back to normal day working and thinking about the "battles" I have for this week and the amount of accumulated work.. I sianz.. I am still thinking.. why does God want to put us in this position? Really no other way? Might as well don't create us? haiz.. When times are bad, or in a bad situation or morale super low or at a lost where to go in life, we will tend to think about these questions de. When times are good, people may forget that is it God Who provides de or just say out the usually phrase "感谢赞美主!" or "Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!" like saying the magic words "Thank You" or "Sorry" like that.. Haiz.. be positive jnwk, life here is a "short while" only..

"You are still young"

Recently, probably a few weeks ago, I went to bank A and B to do some transactions. Both told me to me to listen to their financial adviser or consultant for their financial plans.

Bank A
They told me to go listen to their protection cum savings plan. Need to hold for 15 years. I told them that their scheme too long. They told me "You are still young" and blah blah.. -_-


Bank B
They told me if I am interested in their 5 years deposits due to their higher interest rates (guarantee for 6 months only) and referred me to their financial consultant. After listening, oh it is a structured deposit. I told them the plan too long liao. He told me "You are still young" and blah blah.. -_- Then he went on to introduce me to other 4 to 5 of their plans. In the end, I did not apply for any and simply did what I want and left.

Hmm.. thinking.. Same strategy, same words. Learn from the same master, perhaps. Haiz.. Maybe it is time to think about some financial planning. These days, money never enough. Inflation keeps on raising.

Making money on the internet by clicking ads - Bux.to






I don't know. God must be anwering my post (and in this way, I cause others to make money also... hehe). I just received a message from someone I don't even know in the gladiatus about making extra money over the internet by clicking ads. I made some research and it seems safe (You can try reading this and make your own research: link). So I decide to joined the alertpay and bux.to to try. Ok la.. it seems to be a way to make a small amount of money. If you want to register, please please.. use the link I show.. as I will get some money from you if you register with me as the referal. Thank you :D

Thanks Bojan for the message. I just use his e-mail to convey the message, and I just change the links only. Hope you can join me soon. ;) hehe.. ...so Eunice, KF, SK, debu.. etc... if you happen to come across my post, please join.. hmm.. should I go and invite you over... hehe..



See below for more informations:


1. Go to link: http://www.alertpay.com/?FVxumjBv6LF4vyQAXKbZoA%3d%3d and register. But, BE CAREFUL! You have to write them your right name and surname! It's because you will transfer your earned dollars to account in bank in your country later, on your nam, and names have to be same. You don't need to worry, everything is highly secured, thousands of people are using alertpay for tranfering money and paying online, you can check it easily.


2. When you finish registering on alert pay, go to link: http://bux.to/?r=jnwk and register too. Here you don't need to write your right name and surname, only you have write same e-mail that you have written on alertpay when registering, so they can later transfer you earned money on your alertpay account. Earned money you can spend to buy something online (eBay for example, or buying premium accounts for online games – Ogame, Vendetta, etc.) or you can transfer it into your bank and use it some other way.


Just, please, don't forget to register by this links I have given to you, so I can get something from you too. You don't have anything from that, but I do. If you don't write me as your refferal (register by my link) they will sell you, and you will be someone elses refferal, so it's same for you, but not for me. I hope it's ok with you..

3. And the cashmachine starts! :) When you register, and open your bux.to account on link „Surf Ads“ you will see every day more than 10 Ads, and all you have to do is to click on every, and wait 30 seconds. Than you open next one. And you will get 1 cent for every ad you open! On link „My Stats“ you see money you have earned and everything else. When you earn your first 10$ you can transfer it to alertpay (it's minimum for transaction) but it's not that hard to earn them, you will see... ;)

That's all, everything else is up to you, more refferals you find for yourself later, it's more earning for you. You just give them your link for bux.to so they can register as your refferal, as I gave you...

If you have any other question, just write to me and ask, I am here to help you any way I can.

Life's formula

After living for more than 20 years in this fallen planet called earth, and after going through life stages - education , army, working ... - I am convinced, regardless of race and religion, the life's formula to success is:


1) You must have a good good memory. You will impress upon others when you can quote this and that and say out a lot of things. (You will also be able to remember the explanation should there is.) Ppl will think you are knowledge. Ppl won't care much if you understand what you know... because the world works this way --> PPL only want to know the "what", the "when" and the "how"... seldom ppl want to make the effort to know the "why"... I must be an idiot living my life to put much emphasize on the "why" but then I can remember things much better if I know the "why" mah... The almighty God designed me this way mah...what can I do... ya la... ppl say it is about yourself... if you are willing you can do it.and blah blah.. i think these ppl talk cock ... somethings no matter how much you put in your life to do it, you barely can reach that target.. if I ask these ppl to run like the top runner in the world.. are they able to do it? mai lai mai lai... haha


2) You must be a good talker. Ppl usually will be attracted to the ppl who talk well, nice things, fluent ..blah... like magic like that... the charismatic effect sia... no wonder the mega churches so power.. haha... Ya la... You much be talkative... of cos... must "smoke" well la.. some facts plus some imaginative = tata ... gets it? You must know what to say, when to say and how to say... extroverts usually have the advantages even if they are not really that good in work...

remember when you have good memory, you will be able to talk a lot ... it rely on the things, knowledge and things you see , heard and read... dun have to be really facts.. once you remember what you heard, see and read, you will be able to speak confidently even if you may have the facts wrong.. ppl normally will just accept them and tiam tiam seeing WOW you are so knowledgeable sia.. of cos.. the more discerning few will give these ppl a hard time but usually they don't want much trouble and so....

Thank you thank you..

this is how the world works..

if you care enough, pls correct me. i will listen but what you say may not convince me much.. but then i will still KIV... ppl have their own life experiences and go through life differently... even if we take 1 whole day to talk, also may not discuss finish de...

O LORD... I don't where you are and what you are doing right now... please end this world quick (hehe) or please transform me inside out quick..

Haiz.. the author is facing a depression right now... at the end of the tunnel is darkness no light leh.. :( I quote what my dear SK said: "life sux... and then you die..." oh.. haha

A Christian's life should be full of hope sia!! Where is the motivation? Where is the drive? Where is the formula?
