I returned home today thinking the blessedness of my life. I received yet another gift ....or more than that from my head librarian Rosalind. We used to serve in the librarian ministry. But now she is sort of a full time grand mother, hoping to spend more time with her first grand child.

I thank her for the things that she has directly and indirectly taught me. Every word she spoke and for the person that she is, I am honoured to be serving with a "general" who loves God. I think this is the 5 times I am getting gifts from her.
The first was appreciation gift from serving in the library ministry , year 1. The second one was for year 2 I think. I lost count of the blessings I get.

Even in the times when I could not see due to my little mishap, she was also there to help. I should not miss out that my girl friend was also there for me, all the time.

Anyway, Rosalind gave me a book last year. Blessings and Curses : You can choose by Derek Prince. This book hold a very important place in my life. It was like an answer to all the times I have failed, and why I kept failing. I didn't get to finish up this book because the devil wants it back. (not Rosalind). The devil doesnt like people reading about him because he knows many of his little secrets will be exposed. I guess his best trick that someone once told me is that he managed to convince the world that he doesnt exist , and continues to speak little whispers into your ears.

One day, this book was stolen. I mean my bag was stolen from my car. This never happened before. I traced back my steps. It was clearly not an accident. A plan spiritual attack I believe. From here I realize how important is that book. So I tried Amazon. Click CheckOut, fill up my credit card. Guess what ?!!? They dont deliver to Malaysia.

So I wrote a little email to Rosalind and sees if she knows where I can get it still. Surprisingly, she has another copy.... God is good Amen! I can explain how happy I am to get this "manual" back. This time I got to be extra careful

Ain't I indeed privileged to have God watching over me?

Tsunami

As I prepare myself for the Tsunami of life... that I know is coming, I can't stop thinkinig about how helpless man can be. Although some may think that having some form of security at hand is a life saver, but in a natural disaster.... no one can be sure , they will survive. Even Malaysia, who once thought to be save from every form of natural disaster, was affected by the 26th December 2004 Tsunami. It was good for Kaa Hui not to be around to see these.

Life can be a pain sometimes. But the idea is how to find hope in the midst of all these. One man can think , " I am born today, and will die tomorrow, what is there to live for?". Another can find himself to be living life preparing for eternity to come. It doesn't make sense to me that when man can , and have rationalized nature to be the awesome force that produced revolution, man cannot think past the fact there is a greater "nature" that makes life revolves to a higher state in being. A Spiritual man...

Not sure how today's blog end up here. But it is something to ponder.....

And my tsunami is still to come....

How do you live life with net loss every month?

It is a wonder for me , because I havent really got it figured it out. Every month seems to be yielding net loss for me. No savings, nothing is left. I am not really talking about break even. I am not yet there. I am talking about NET LOSS. Means, I spend or pay bills more than I can earn. It is a wonder , that this has been going on for 2 years, and indeed, I am still standing.

Though it gives me sleepless nights, and I cant really see, how I can bail out of this ... alive, but I will just put my hope in Him who gives me strength. There is no secret to like how ppl would like to perceive this .... "How to survive with Net Loss" .... No such ebooks.

Most of these that I see (not read), is all on a con art basis. Providing you information for you to act upon, never really the real solution to it. I suppose the advice will you how to do marketing online, but you have to cough out the investments. Some ebooks will say, how to invest successfully, but you have cough out the investment fees.

Oh.. I got to go for coffee. Talk to you in a bit. =)
