My blog is covered with infinity cm of dust @@
New semester starts and I really can't help but feeling excited after Asia Conference. Even its already 2 weeks after the conference, I still can feeling the fire burning in me where nothing can really practically quench it.
I've change my course to architecture!! And I'm very enjoying my course now. The course changing thought comes in a very special way. After Asia Conference one thing that I learnt is to listen to Holy Spirit. And a few days after my semester starts, a thought comes in my mind, "Change your course". And I wonder "what course?". Right after I asked that question, my friend answer my question, amazing eh?
It happens today too. David Oh ask us to listen to God in silence and quietness during the service for almost 3 minutes. In that 3 minutes, I felt God hugging me and telling me that He is standing beside me and will be right where I am. And after that, David said the same thing that God told me, same sentence and same word! I'm so amazed and really excited where this voice will lead me too. But one thing for sure, it is leading me to a higher level, leading me into growth =)
Was reading my friend blog just now, reading how she fuss and telling about unfairness in the world. How the criminals get away from laws and punishments. How people put up a mask and being hypocritical and make themselves acting in a religious or rather a 'holy' way of life. Or how unfair is some people can excel in everythg while some work hard and cant really achieve anythg at all.
It makes me realise that I used to be thinking that way. So many people need to repent and so many people deserve punishments. The society need to be fixed and people cannot be trusted. Using biblical theory to condemn the society in so many ways. Disgust smokers, gangster, beggars. Even despise nerds, weirdo, fatties. Ya, especially fat people, I have no idea why they used offend me so much. My mind is always filled with perception to people like "they should be acting like this, this, this.....etc". Trying to correct people in every way I can.
But now my eyes open...Its not how unfair the world is. Its not about how people should change. Its not about who to be trusted and who cant be. It is because of all these, Jesus died on the cross. He practically tortured to death so that all this crime can be forgiven. We disgust people of the fakeness of not acting the real them, but what about us? We are borne naturally to tell lies, to gossip, to hate. And all these are sins,crimes, that in God's eyes it is as if we murder people.
Sometimes we might think that hey, how can he/she be a leader or how can he/she can excel? She's not up to the standard or doubting the person in every way we can. The truth is, God elects insignificant or even rejected people to show His significance. Yes, there's justice but in God standard not ours.
Redeem and not condemn. Love and not hate. CHC culture =)
