Looking Back

All of us have a past, our own story. Bible says, to forget the past and to look forward. Sometimes time is the best healer. Today I went to a folder in my e-mail account and deleted the whole folder. That folder belongs to a person. When I look back, I realised how naive I was. However, I thank God because of His protection. I did not look into that folder for about a year, and today I deleted the whole folder without looking into the content. Does this mean that I have let go?

Looking back, does not mean that we have not let go, it means that we are able to look back because we have let go. If I had not let go, I do not think I have the guts to even look back, because the past showed my naivety; therefore to be able to look back showed that I am able to accept that as a fact

We are not perfect, and we do make mistake. My boss says, a mistake is only a mistake if done twice. I pray to God that I would not make the same mistake again. I trust in His unfailing love. I trust His choice.

At times, when we look back, we are able to appreciate the present. Thank You Jesus for Your love to me. Thank you from my heart.

Love by Jaeson Ma

Now Hollywood wants to make you think they know what love is.

But I'm a tell you what true love is.

Love is not what you see in the movies.

Its not the ecstasy, its not what you see in that scene you know what I mean?

I'm telling you right now, true love is sacrifice.

Love is thinking about others before you think about yourself

Love is selfless not selfish. Love is God and God is love.

Love is when you lay down your life for another

Whether for your brother, your mother, your father or your sister

Its even laying down your life for your enemies,

That's unthinkable, but think about that Love is true

Think.

Chorus

I'll put you in front of me

So everybody can see

My love, this is my love

I know that I'll be alright

As long as you are my guide

My love, this is my love

Love is patient, love is kind.

It does not envy, it does not boast

It is not proud. Love is not rude, it is not self-seeking

It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs

You see love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, it always perseveres

Love never fails. Love is everlasting

Its eternal, it goes on and on, it goes beyond time

Love is the only thing that will last when you die

But ask the question why? Do you have love?

Chorus

I'll put you in front of me

So everybody can see

My love, this is my love

I know that I'll be alright

As long as you are my guide

My love, this is my love

There is no greater love than this than he who lays down his life for his friends

Now are you willing to lay down your life for your friends?

You're probably willing to lay down your life for your mother

your father, or your best friends

But are you willing to lay down your life for even those that hate you?

I'm going to tell you who did that

The definition of love is Jesus Christ. He is love

The nails in his hands, the thorns in his brow

Hanging on a cross for your sin my sins

That is love he died for you and me while we still hated him

That is love

God is true love, and if you don't know this love

Now is the time to know, perfect love

Chorus

I'll put you in front of me

So everybody can see

My love, this is my love

I know that I'll be alright

As long as you are my guide

My love, this is my love (repeat)

Is Figure that Important?

We are living in a fast paced society. There are many times we have to meet the expectation of people around us. For instance, parents, bosses, friends, relatives, colleagues, et cetera.

Am I willing to let go a high pay job to do something which I enjoy and I know I will be happy?

Am I willing to hit the sales target (as Amway member) and forget about relationships?

I have met people who are willing to do anything to hit the figure that they have targeted, and along the way, I believe they need to sacrifice things, for example, friendships. Is it worth the sacrifice?

I believe to hit the target, there are many ways that we can choose, and it is all depends on us, whether we are willing to do it the hard way.

Lord, please lead your daughter so that she has a clear conscience. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
