"Happy V-Day!"

It's all about LOVE.

Four(4) types of LOVE:

Storge - familial love (eg. the warm afflection that parents have towards their child)

Eros - the desire to draw out all that is good, beautiful & true (motivated by need)

Plilia - friendship love (Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13)

Agape - GOD'S LOVE (Selfless, sacrificial love - in which nothing is asked in return)

LOVE

Love is: patient, kind

Love does not: envy, boast, delight in eveil but rejoices with the truth

Love is not: proud, self-seeking, easily angered

Love keeps no record of wrongs.

Love always: protects, trusts, hopes, peeseveres

(1 Corinthians 13:4-7)

"And now these three remain: faith, hope & love. But the greatest of these is love."

(1 Corinthians 13:13)

Message:

God's promise for us is in John 3:16.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one & only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."

God died for us on the Cross for our sins when we were still sinners. His love for us never fails. The Lord disciplines those he loves. God has said clearly in Hebrews 13:5.

"Never will I leave you;

never will I forsake you."

The Lord is our helper, WE shall not be afraid. What can man do to us?

For those who are searching for an answer, the time has come. Speak to the Lord and he answer your questions. "Ask & it will be given to you; seek & you will find; knocked & the door will be opened to you." (Matthew 7:7)

So, take "V-Day" as a day to not only be focused totally on our "spouse" but rather to remember what the Lord has done for us on the Cross.

Thank you. "Happy V-Day!".

GOD BLESS !! ORA Et. Labora !

Additional Mathematics

It has been quite some time since I last proper wrote a post so I decided to write one tonight before 12am but I am not sure whether I can finish this in time or not. =.=

Tonight, I went to my aunt's house to have tuition with her & my cousins from 8pm-10.30pm. It was the first time in my life for me to go to her house to truly work otherwise I'll just go there to visit my aunt & my cousins.

I did 7 Additional Mathematics' Questions for the whole 2 1/2 hours. Talk about me being lengthy. ;) It was indeed an unforgettable occurrence for me as I had obtained more proficiency in my studies. xD

I didn't know precisely on what to write so before I end my post I would like to tell everybody chiefly to all the readers of my blog, don't be afraid to ask if you have any problems. I am sure there is always somebody there to help you especially our God in Heaven.

Till then, do go for an Evening Worship with Planetshakers. I am sure you don't want to miss it. Be happy & make it easy-going. Don't take it to austerely.

THANK YOU

GOD BLESS !! ORA Et. Labora !

Your Kuching Blogger,

Make Me Happy!

February 11, 2009 

Today @ This is the way...

Greetings friends,

We hope you find the secret to true happiness.

Clyde and Dee Kilough

Make Me Happy!

Most people really do want to be happy. Our definition of what it means to be happy, however, is one important variable in that goal.

We sometimes think that if we had a million dollars we would be happy—but others who have the million have proven that the money alone does not make people happy. Sometimes we think if we had a more understanding mate we would be happy, or if we lived in a different part of the world—and so on and so forth.

We in America live in one of the most blessed nations on earth. People from other lands seek entry by desperate means—just to be here. We have freedom, plenty, peace and opportunities of all sorts. But the truth is, nothing will “make us happy”—that is something we choose to be by learning to be thankful and appreciative of our blessings (Psalm 100).

Johnson Oatman Jr. once wrote in a hymn, “Count your blessings, name them one by one; count your blessings, see what God hath done!” Happiness is a choice—and it’s up to you.

Redeeming the Time

February 9, 2009

Today @ This is the way...

Hello readers,

The clock is ticking.

Clyde and Dee Kilough

Redeeming the Time

The apostle Paul warned us to “walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:15-16), which prompts an interesting question: How much time do you and I have left to redeem?

The subject of death is never a pleasant one, but sooner or later we must accept the fact that “it is appointed for men to die once” (Hebrews 9:27)—and that this includes ourselves.

We may have anywhere from 60 years to 60 seconds left to live. Regardless, our focus should not be on how much time we have left, but how we’re spending it. Are we making good use of it? Are we walking circumspectly? Are we redeeming it?

The best way to answer yes to all three questions is found in the next part of Paul’s warning: “Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is” (Ephesians 5:17).

There is no better starting point.

Band Idol 2009

Band Idol 2009 was held on the 6^th & 7^th of February 2009 & it has all ended. Band Idol 2009 was indeed a great success as each and everybody worked together as a TEAM to come up with such a great event.

 

I would like to congratulate Daniel Balan for winning the Solo Category for the night. His performance really caught the crowd’s attention.

 

Not to forget, our own SJSMSB percussions who emerged Champion for the Ensemble Category. “Suthi Downgraded”, that is what they called themselves and they had put up an awesome show for the night.

 

Our 1^st runner-up, “The Geeks” had also put up a great show but unfortunately they did not managed to grab the Champion title. Don’t give up, work harder next time.

 

As for the 2^nd runner-up, “The 3A1’s” did a great performance but again I am sorry I don’t know what to say about them as I was not there when they perform.

 

Congratulations to all winners. To all who didn’t manage to pass through Audition, Preliminary Round, or didn’t win any award, don’t give up and do work for the next Band Idol in years to come.

 

Thank you Stage Crew(s) for your support on the stage and thanks a lot to those who had contributed directly or indirectly to the favourable outcome of Band Idol 2009.

 

THANK YOU.
