LoOong post....

Today, my senior was telling me about how the directors at the board meeting started the meeting with a prayer.. it was reali quite unusual for a company to do a prayer at a formal meeting, but im real glad to know tat, and though its juz a general prayer to ask for blessings for everyone present and for the meetin to go smoothly..though its not some sort of a christian organisation..hmm..

Oso, she saw a poster tat read sometin like tat (according to her memory..)

A man was unsure of Christ's love for him. So one day, when he met Christ, he asked Him,
"How much do You love me??"
Then, Christ said "This much",
and then He died.

Got it? think it thru..mayb some parts of it were missing..so its abit abrupt and incoherent..i tried to find a similar one on the Net but didnt managed to..aniway i needed her to repeat abt 2-3 times b4 i got it..coz she simply read it out..i guess it shld be clearer when written down..with the " and stuff.. It sort of touched my heart at tat moment..it reminded me of His first love for me.. I feel so guilty for neglecting..yet so helpless for not being able to do much for Him at this point in time..the next passage describes what im feeling now..

Preparing For Heaven
Read: Psalm 63
O God, You are my God; early will I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. --Psalm 63:1

Some people openly declare that they don't want to go to heaven. I've had people tell me that they would rather be with their drinking buddies in hell than with the church-going crowd in heaven.

Most people, however, say they hope to go to heaven when they die, but I've often wondered what makes them think they would be happy there. They ignore Jesus Christ and want nothing to do with God. They show no interest in Bible reading, prayer, and worship. Why would they suddenly enjoy fellowship with God on the other side?

Although David makes no reference in Psalm 63 to spending eternity with God, there is no doubt about his deep longing for God. And I believe that the godly attitudes and actions we are nurturing in our lives here and now prepare us for heaven's enjoyments throughout eternity.

That raises some heart-searching questions. We say we want God in our lives, but how passionately do we seek fellowship with Him? How much time do we spend reading His Word, praying, and worshiping? How earnestly do we want to please Him? Does our soul thirst for Him and our heart long for Him? If so, we can say with David, "My soul follows close behind You" (v.8). --HVL

Longing to know Jesus better,
Trying to show Him our love;
This is the way to get ready
For our great meeting above. --Hess

Now is the time to invest in eternity.

Today, i braved up my courage, and went to see the partner for the performance appraisal..has been avoiding it for weeks..thot i could juz skip this chat session since im not the only one being called for..but still..with the encouragement fr my senior..and some prayin b4 i step into the partner's rm.. i got the peace from above..and decided tat mayb this partner will be able to enlighten me on some of the issues of deciding on my career..

Well, somehow..i guess i reali looked too sian..esp its a monday..he could sense my dullness and lack of zest at this pt in time..so thruout the 1 hr chat..we were talkin abt life..abt family..abt ambitions..abt edn system..abt how he didnt know wat he wanted to be last time..he could sense tat i hav no interest in audit even b4 me telling him..and his advice for me..is tat if i know wat i wan, dan i shld pack up n go..if i don..i hav to hang on in audit since it's gg to be a gd foundation if i gonna stay in the corporate world..haiz..tats the prob la..i don even know wat i wan..but shall take his advice to:
hang on
be independent in my work
be confident in approaching clients, even upper mgmt

Do Not Worry 25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life[a]?

28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Oh, i like another of my partner's advice..tat is..to find a $rich$ man..n get married..dan i don hav to think much..don hav to work..haha
