Because of His great love that has touched my heart, and that causes me to love Him back.
He is the One who showed me the way…giving me the meaning and purpose of living...
Who rescued me and sustain my life..
Who provide all my needs…
Who delivered me from the evil one…
Who heals me and brings restoration into my life…
Who strengthens and comfort me…
Who gives me peace….
Who shows me what is right and what is wrong…
Who gives me wisdom and understanding..
Who gives me the courage and takes away my fear…
Who encourages me and always cheer me up!
Who makes me feel safe and secure…
Who makes me feel accepted just the way I am…
Who forgives my sins and gives me a 2nd chance, 3rd chance…even 5th chance, until I get it right!!!
Who always stand by 24/7….and gave me His words that He’ll never leave me nor forsake me…
Who truly convinced me that there’s always hope, and gave me His words that this hope in Him will not fail…
Who showed me what love means….through His son Jesus Christ…
Who adopted me as His own, so that I can be called His child…
I can never understand, the depth of God’s love…
Why He chose me and called me, even sacrificed His only beloved Son for me…
For me…..
Me…who has a sinful nature, selfish desire, and weaknesses…
And how I wish I can change them or get rid of them out of my life...
But again and again, there’s always mistakes that I make, and how I fail to please Him..
At times, it seems that I will never be good enough…and nothing that I see in me that can deserve His love…
When my soul is downcast, I heard a gentle whisper, a whisper that calms the storms in my heart….a gentle voice saying…
“My child, I love you with an everlasting love….and My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in your weaknesses.”
Now I know that …
When the world around me started to crumble…
When no one really understand…
When I’m feeling broken and shattered…
I will look up…
I will look to His love…
I will look to His mercy and grace…
I will look to that hope that is in Him…
I will look into His eyes…that is ever on me…ever looking at me…
And I will say to Him….that He is my all in all…

A Seed for A Purpose
Looking at nuts, such as almonds, walnuts, macadamias…these good nuts are in a shell. Because they contain good source of nutrition and they are very beneficial, so being in a shell gives protection to the nuts.
God is an amazing God, He is the Creator. He wonderfully created those plants, knowing how to design them, knowing the purpose of those plants.
If God is very thoughtful about the plants, how much more that He thought about us…human beings, whom God love so much, whom God show His love for us in every possible way.
I couldn’t comprehend how God would be so thoughtful in creating each one of us. We are who we are, as how He designed us to be. And being created in Him, He placed in us a very special and unique purpose for our lives.
How and when can we discover that special purpose that He has for us?
As the nuts came from seed form, and slowly grow into a tree, at that moment when we accepted Christ, a seed has been planted in our heart. A seed from God, labeled “made in Heaven”.
The seed is planted in the field of Grace, watered by Love and Compassion. Once it started to grow as a plant, He makes sure that it is well nourished. The Word of God fertilizes the plant, and He starts to trim and cause the plant to grow beautifully and in a good shape. Through challenges and trials in life, He moulds and shapes our lives, for He knows what’s best for us and what we designed to be.
Once it’s well nurtured, it will start to produce fruits; it is as God cause us to produce the fruit of Faith, fruit of Righteousness, and fruit of Love…….
And I can imagine how it will put a big smile on the One who has planted that seed, and caused that seed to grow into a tree and bears fruits.
I believe that is what life is all about. We are planted in the field of Grace, in that process of growing into a tree or bearing those fruits. Knowing and believing this, I can be rest assured in His presence, for He placed me in His field of Grace, and I can obtain the grace as much as I need, in times of need; for His word said “My Grace is sufficient for you…”
And when I feel weak and helpless, I can look to Him for strength, for His word says: ”My power is made perfect in your weaknesses…”
When troubles come and anxiety fills my heart, I can look to Him for peace, for His word said “My peace I give unto you…”
When I’m all alone, and there’s no one I can turn to, He is right there beside me, for His word says: “Never will I leave you nor forsake you…”
Lastly, having said and knowing all these, I can believe it with all my heart, that He is all I need.

Deeper in Love
Started reading the book “Enjoying God” by S.J.Hill, which I believe I found this book not just by coincidence! At the same time, it’a a season of my life now where God is bringing me to a place, closer to His presence, His purpose, and His heart. I begin to discover what it means to enjoy God, I mean truly enjoying Him. It was overwhelming at times because of the revelation of who God is, and who I really am!
Unworthy…undeserving…yet, He poured out His love for me. Feeling overwhelmed by His love and grace, I knew that nothing that I could do that can pay back what He has done for me.
And I realised, that the greatest gift that I could offer is the acceptance of His love for me, realising that I belong to Him..His treasured possession, the apple of His eyes.
He lead me to a secret place, where all other things around me started fading and I could see Him clearer and closer.
In that place, I felt broken and poor…realised that I have nothing but Jesus alone, the things in my life will not last forever, and people often come and go..
A revelation within my heart that Jesus only I have, and will always have til eternity.
I begin to fall in love all over again, deeper in love with Jesus…once again He captivated my heart. My heart started to catch His heartbeat, and I started living only for the audience of One.
It all happened, in that secret place….
I believe that He wants you too to come into that secret place, just you and Him, to be with Him, and you’ll discover His beautiful and wonderful love for you.
I can now say this “ Jesus, You are the lover of my soul…”
The invitation is always open, could you hear His gentle whisper in your heart…?
Will you come into that secret place?
Few Words to Share...
Hi, all my beloved friends and family..or whoever is reading this!
Decided to start this blog, as a place where I can share some of my experiences and what's I've learned so far...
I’m inspired by some the blogs that I’ve read and kinda think to myself that it’s actually a good idea. My prayer is that may whatever things that I share can encourage you to continue to pursue Jesus and to walk with Him all the days of your life. So far, I found that walking with Jesus has been an exciting, adventurous, and wonderful journey! Let us walk in this journey together!!
