trust in the midst of troubles and worries
:
hi i know its a little unusual for me to update so soon but listen here.
I dunno if i should call it a prophesy but i have this recurring picture in my head that Singapore is going to fall soon. This may be a little sensitive to all those govt people or even the police. But its not like im involved in this operation or whatever. But i can just imagine that the HDBs that house 90% of us will collapse one day, just like putting faith on the wrong things instead of God.
Last thursday, Mr Koh showed us a video of 911 and the other terroists attacks. After I saw that video it just so affected me that i feel for all those innocent people. Just imagine that one day you just happily go to work, say good-bye to your family, and the next thing you know it will be your last time. I find the activities of the terrorists to be so terrible. Please. Stop. It.
Recently I have like had quite an experience with 2 people. The first one hate the other guy, then I dont know why I was so kpo, but in the end, instead of turning him 180 degrees, I ended up offending him. The second one is one that I recently felt guilty for the way I treated him. It was like, I made friend with him, then I tao him. How would you feel? It only occured to me when another friend said something to him, hit a raw nerve in him, and made him feel very sad for the rest of the day. It is like the whole is revolving around me. I cannot take these changes like someone having negative feelings towards me, and another one Im trying to accept him as a friend. I cannot take all these changes! But I know I can continue to trust in God, and when you trust in God, you are never disappointed.
The recent escape of Mas Selamat is also another issue here. It could mean the upcoming potential of the terrorists or the complency Singaporeans have. I really hope the police find him. With him lurking out there, something is just not right anymore. Imagine Mas Selamat connecting himself with Singaporeans here, just think how great the damage would be.
You know about the persecution of christians I have preached about. If the time ever comes, I dont know if I can ever do it. Im serious. My knees would probably be shaking, and i'll close my eyes and say yes. I think there is a message behind all these that we should only trust in God, for He is the only one who sees all, knows all and wants the best for all.
