What is the difference between these two women?

I always tell sisters “Beauty flows from the inner being not the outward appearance”

One day as I read this book and finds what they wrote on their book will brings lots of hope for sisters, girls, ladies, aunties, women.

“Janet is twenty-one. She was on the dance team in high school. Small and petite with a fabulous figure. Unlike so many women in that world of competitive beauty, she escaped an eating disorder. But she runs between five and ten miles a day. She watches what she eats. She’s able to wear the cutest clothes. And yet… when you’re with her, your heart does not rest. Her beauty impresses, but it does not invite. The reason is simple: she is striving. She is a perfectionist (an extra two pounds is a crisis; a pimple is a disaster). Her beauty feels tenuous, shaky. It is not following from her heart. It’s almost as if it’s forced, from t

He outside, through discipline and fear.

June is one of the most beautiful women we have ever met. We encountered her a few years ago while doing a retreat on the coast of North Carolina. Her hair was long, swept up loosely and held by decorative combs. She wore unique, dangly earrings and pretty flowing skirts. Her eyes sparkled when she laughed, which she did often, and her smile lit up the room. She was clearly in love with her husband, her face adoring as she gazed at him. June was at rest with herself, at home in who she was. Talking with her, just being with her, made us feel more at rest with ourselves as well. Her spacious, beautiful soul invited others to come, to be, to taste and see that the Lord is good, whatever was happening in your life. She wept at the retreat. She laughed at the retreat. She was gloriously live and in love, both with her husband and with the God of the Universe.

And Jane was about seventy-five years old.

What is the difference between this two women? Rest. June’s beauty flows from a heart at rest.”

Wanted: Precious treasure

My wife lost her precious camera which has been following her for more than 4 years, last year mission trip. She was looking for it up and down and call people that she can think of to help her to find it. As I writing this email to my surprising, I recall that day before CNY when we buy our new camera, we found “the lost”. Joseph is one of the brother we found in our Treasure Hunt Luke 15:8-10. Is amazing, how beautiful are God plans, as we look hard for the treasure that  precious to us. God also has His precious treasure need us to look for. Luke 15:31-32

Food for thought: 'My son,' the father said, 'you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.'

2014 date to switch off traditional light bulb

Good news in Malaysia, Beautiful Malaysia, 

The traditional light bulb will no longer be available by January 2014.

The Government will stop all production, import and sales of the bulbs by that date as part of efforts to save power.

Traditional light bulbs, also called incandescent light bulbs, are considered less energy-efficient and, as a result, not as environmentally-friendly as compact fluorescent lamps, fluorescent tubes and light-emitting diodes.

The second phase, from January 2012 till the end of 2013, will see an end to the production, import and sales of all other light bulbs.

He said the move was in line with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak’s commitment to reduce carbon intensity by 40% by the year 2020 that was made during the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Conference that was held in Copenhagen in December last year.

In a related development, the Housing and Local Government Ministry has proposed the use of LED bulbs to replace conventional light bulbs in street lamps.

2014 date to switch off traditional light bulb

Why Me? Why Now? Why This?

Have you been to the warehouses where snow is stored or seen the warehouses for hail
that I have stored up for the time of trouble, for the day of battle and war?
Which is the way to the place where light is scattered and the east wind is spread across the earth?
"Who made a channel for the flooding rains and a path for the thunderstorms
to bring rain on a land where no one lives, on a desert where there are no humans,
to saturate the desolate wasteland in order to make it sprout with grass?
Does the rain have a father? Who gave birth to the dewdrops?
From whose womb came the ice, and who has given birth to the frost in the air?
The water hardens like a stone, and the surface of the ocean freezes over.
Job 38:22-30 (GW)

1. The World Below: Earth - Job 38:4-7 Sea - Job 38:8-11 Sunrise - Job 38:12-15 Land and Sea - Job 38:16-18
2. The World Above: Light - Job 38:19-21 Snow and Hail - Job 38:22-30 Galaxies - Job 38:31-33 Rain - Job 38:34-38
3. Animal Life: Lions and Birds - Job 38:39-41 Birth of animals - Job 39:1-4 Oxen - Job 39:13-18 War Horse - Job 39:19-25 Hawk - Job 39:26-30


Why would God spend so much time and give so much detail to Job concerning all these things? Although the reason is simple, it is very profound in nature and one that all of us should remember when we are tempted to murmur and complain to God about anything. God is reminding Job that concerning all of the things mentioned in chapters 38 and 39, Job is completely and totally ignorant. God said that not only did he create all these things, He also controls all of them. It was as if God were saying to Job, "Don’t you think that if I can do all these things, I can take care of your life? Who do you think you are to question me"?

Say to your situation how big is our God and talk to God about people

• If you talk to someone and they will not listen because they were so discouraged.
• Take up your authority, Go tell the enemy (person behind the person) to let the person go.
• Talk to God and say everything He command you.
• Do just as He commanded you.
• Result may not come over night; you may have to deal with it over and over.
• But have faith and know that he is the LORD.
• You will see the deliverance of the LORD, he will fight for you. Exodus 14:13-14

Reference Exodus 6-7

Pray that they will come back to the senses, set out and return to the Father. Luke 15:17-18

The key is: -

• Pray – Listen – Obey
• Use the Word of God
• Fight the good fight of faith
