sense of injustice?
I feel this sense of injust from time to time... its like there's this vibe of favouritism in the group of people I'm in. I know someone out there probably dont like my guts as much as I don't like theirs either.Even though I know I should be reacting this way, still its quite a thorn feeling. In between those two, seeking to be accepted, to be happy, to be recongised.
Then again, I dont have to be dependant on others for recongition, for acceptance and source of happiness. Jesus is more than enough for me - and those things that I need as a human He knows and only He can give all that completely.
Even though its painful though... I wonder if I should confront the person. Then again, I maybe over sensitive. Nevertheless... I want to strive on! Its okay not everyone likes me... I know God does and those people that He blessed me with :).
still - i'm sometimes only human.

I love christmas. The Birth of Hope to the world 2000 plus years ago. And all in His Sovereignty, His Love for His children, in His plan. It was never about US that He came.
NCC bible studies service on Friday is pretty cool. Learnt a great deal just on Friday. I guess I can call it a "divine appointment" that I was there. I was feeling so dreadful about going into a crowded place like Suntec, got there at 7:40pm and thought probably I'm too late and maybe no other people are going up. Turns out that the worship was still on and still streams of people going to the overflow room. They had a special speaker John Burns I think from Victory Christian Center (from canada i think) and he and his wife Helen delivered a powerful message about relationships (and this encompasses marriage too).
I was reminded today by someone through a conversation about this : we should apply what we learn into our lives. I'm astonished by this person's wisdom. This person doesnt really read the Bible a lot (although he knows he should). But does have strong principles and true bible does teach principles on living. this person does apply things read or heard - but does it with reflection and thinkiing. More than just taking in and taking in without thinking. That I think is really admirable. Not many people I know do that - most of us (including me at times when im just so lazy to think) are the textbook folks. We read/listen but dont apply. Outwardly Christian, inwardly ___? I dont know. I cant judge any human. But we truely are guilty of that.
I do hope that this person will not let the experience of life surpasses the things that God is teaching for there is more than these principles and wisdowm to it...

then what or who did jesus really died for?
hun? i dont get u?
I kinda wrote this out of the context... didnt elaborate much. which part u refering to?
"I love christmas. The Birth of Hope to the world 2000 plus years ago. And all in His Sovereignty, His Love for His children, in His plan. It was never about US that He came."
I think what I'm trying to say here is that I'm trying not to making the coming of Christ a self centered thing. That I didnt deserve to be saved by His death on the cross but He still did - in His Sovereignty. I've heard preachings that makes the whole gospel sounds like the people deserves the salvation because simply they are people and every blessing should go to them.
I think God really chose to love the human race He created even though we felt short of who we were supposed to be created. I mean God has all the power and might of creating the universe - He could have destroyed and start all over again when the human race got corrupted. But from the point after Noah's faithfulness, God chose to make a promise not to wipe out the human race again by such tremendous action.
And through out the bible we read of the coming of the Messiah - the Savior.
I think I can explain this with cat and dog theology by Bob Sorjen in summary of essence.
Cat theology says - You feed me, You care for me, You love me - I must be god. (the self self self..bless me theology)
Dog theology says - You feed me, You care for me, You love me - You must be God.
