Negaraku, Malaysia

Negaraku, Malaysia.

It is 31st of August tomorrow, a date to remember for all Malaysians. A day where Malaya had achieved its independence which later on led to the formation of the modern Malaysia consisting of the Peninsula Malaysia, Sabah, and Sarawak. 

It is a historic day, a day that had change the destiny a nation.

A nation called Malaysia was born. 

I'm proud to be a Malaysian! A place that is so unique in it's own way. Not often that you can find a country with so many different races living together in harmony, respecting, adapting and accepting cultural differences among races and cultures. I would say the country can boast of its people ingenuity in gauging between languages! An ordinary Malaysian would have at least spoken more than 2 to 3 languages in their daily lives!

Different races studying together, 一, DUA, மூன்று!

And not often, only a slightest of chance that you can find a country like Malaysia where it is free from almost all types of natural disasters and add on to that, we have so many beautiful natural heritage in this country that would put natural lover in awe of the creation of God! This I can say is a gift from God to all Malaysians, assuring that we could live in this land peacefully given that we won't take these blessings for granted.

Pulau Redang - One of the most beautiful island in the world!

Mount Kinabalu - Highest peak in South East Asia

And the food. The diversity of the food here can almost make sure that you can have different types of food for each of your meals daily and you can go 1 week or more without needed to repeat the same menu! This is certainly one of the greatest asset that the country possesses!

Nasi Lemak!

Asam Laksa...

AND MANY MANY MORE!!!!

Many had said this coming general election would be one of the defining moment in the history of Malaysia. Regardless of how it would eventually turn out to be, let us just take one day off to just appreciate the blood, sweat, tears and sacrifices that people and leaders had made to give the country a brand new hope, an Independence.

Revive this land, heal this land, and restore this land into glory and glory! 

Reliving the moment of Merdeka...

Rahmat Bahgia, Tuhan kurniakan!

I love MALAYSIA!

I dreamed a dream

Dream, dream, dream. Whats the dream about? 

What were your dreams? 

Dreams that you dreamed when you were a young innocent kid,

Dreams that you dreamed when you had the boldness and youthfulness of youth,

Dreams that you dreamed when  you stepped into the world with so much passion and expectation,

What were your dreams?

Had a chance to share about (yea, you guessed it right) dream during cell meeting just now, a word that I had almost forgotten in the midst of things happening around me. Dream.

So amusing, so lovely. That was how we perceive dreams in the earlier days in our life. Dream, a noun and an adjective. In order to make the earlier true, the latter has to follow suit. But hey, its easy to be said than done. How many in this world had actually achieve the dream they dreams? 

Dream seems vague, untouchable. But some people live by the existence of it, it is the life and breath of many  human being that lived and is living on this world. Some people are cynical of it because it sometimes mislead you into a non-existing Far Far Away Kingdom, making you to believe what was impossible, to believe reality overrule, ultimately, your dreams.

But then, fact that we could not deny; Dream makes the impossible possible; Dreams make the non-existence exist; Dreams drive thousands and millions of lives. 

 

One of the most inspiring fairy tale I've heard, which gives fellow dreamers now more reasons to dream.  

Fellow dreamers, let's dream! ;)

The Revelation in Taiwan

22/08/11-29/08/11

Out of the country for the first time, I found myself in a foreign land that seems all so familiar. Every faces here are so alike and familiar, at a point I was questioning myself did I actually went oversea, anyhow it was a wonderful experience. Apart from the life, the food, and the people here, this post will focus on the focal point of the Taiwan Trip.

The first 6 days we spent attending conferences, yes, 2 conferences that I am attending. 

Kingdom of God. 

Becoming the real us.

The conferences had reveal what I perceive is what God has to say to this generation of people, to His people living in the very end of days: The Kingdom of God does not only lie in the future, but it is already here, and we  the citizens of God carries the kingdom with us wherever we go.

Christians should be the head but not the tail, and our life style should be of a royal prince and princess, carrying the honor and glory of the kingdom of God for we were made according to the image of the God that  had created the universe and the world we are living right now. Was listening to Ps Jaeson Ma message on the Kingdom Mandate, he mentioned that in Genesis God had told human, let them have dominion over all creation on earth and thus God himself cannot cannot turnover what He had said, thus he grant human the authority over all creation on earth and thus be responsible for every deeds that human made. Not that God cannot intervene and allow that to happen, it is because God cannot turn over what He had said, that is entrusting human to rule over the earth.

Thus as we live on the earth, we are the medium that God needs to propagate among the people. He requires us to work with Him in order to bring His kingdom down to the earth and thus God is searching for a person, a righteous man that earnestly seek Him and His will. We are no longer condemned by our sins and weaknesses when we accept Christ as He had died for us on the cross to restore our identity in Him. When we live like a prince, living a kingdom lifestyle that we are only becoming our real self. 

Repent may be broken to "Re-pent". That is returning to the pinnacle, the highest point (JMA). Yes, it was to restore us back to what we had fallen short of, the us that is glorious, honored, holy,  and majestic. Only when we realize who we are that we know what we are capable of doing. A slave will never rule the world, but a King will. Thus through Christ when our identities are restored that we would start realizing what we can do through Him: Healing the sick, raising the death, casting out demons, see visions and dreams and etc. God's kingdom is limitless!

I thank God for this wonderful Taiwan trip, where I met my God so intimately, and spending time with the great servants of God is definitely a big big bonus. God had reveal Himself to us, to our church, and seeing our leaders so passionately talking about youths just excites me! And yes, one word that I had received from God: "Finally". I need not elaborate further right? Yes God, finally!
