The Lord is good and gracious to all who love Him.

equador in orchard

There were EQuaDoriaNs in Orchard Road...spotted today!!

basking, mellow music....
with Red indian hats
(red indians are not related to their culture at all, dunno why they had them on display)

What are these people: From Equador, the jungles which Jim Elliot's and team (during 1950s) reached out to that caused he and the team's deaths.

What are their beliefs: Christianity, because after they killed the missionary Jim and the team of men who were reaching out to them, their wives still went back to reach out to these people and they were so touched i think, that they decided to believe in God.
I asked what religion was their country and one of the men at the side replied "Christianity".....
And coincidentally i'm reading "Through gates of splendour" by Elizabeth elliot. that is one fantastic book.

First time i get to witness a Salvation case.....online.....yay!!!
Mostly through prayer first.

In the middle of a fantastic book now...

yes in a way i'm glad i've kinda really got onto the correct track.... (i think) and i was soo astounded by yesterday's sermon which was in sync with what i wanted to be. and what i didn't want and want. but whoaa......not boasting or anything but i taught 8 hours today?! :P :P but i'm not complaining....my senior teacher was right....how can u not fall in love with faces keep calling "teacher teacher!"

kairos

Kairos missions course --the last day, was held today.

I was writing to someone from Russia for a period of time. Have since last Sat or sunday stopped writing cos i realised it's totally "huh?" writing to someone u do not exactly know!? the bible talks about some people group "praying to an unknown god"....where they offered sacrifices to a god whom they didn't know at all but whom they gave sacrifices to. see the logic why i can't go on talking to an unknown?

Acts 17
22Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: "Men of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious. 23For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Now what you worship as something unknown I am going to proclaim to you.

Even though the person says he is a guy he may be a girl. or at "it" or half half or Both. nowadays, u never know.

i replied the chatty replyable emails of course. which are about Singapore. USSR was ruled by Tzars, that's all i learnt.

So if he (assume its a he) wants to know about Kazakhs I hope he reads my blog about this info:

Let's see, 50% of Kazakhs are Russians....in fact many Kazakhs are mixed blood,
super exotic.
They like shopping. they are hungry....to learn. and are open to new new friendships. even if they never saw you before. sparse population.....very sparse in newly developed states.

facebook? myspace? friendster? what about heaven?

Its amazing that i remember a lot of great quotes when i'm very sleepy and tired now...And i'm rational moreso now than at any time of the day when i'm alert and awake. why is this so, i ask the Lord and he hasn't replied me. the only thing i can think of is that i'm less distracted by things i'm not supposed to be distracted about when i'm tired. He wants our total focus and attention, amen?

And today, now this evening while chatting online, i remember this famous famous quote....from a pastor or some preacher which said our primary goal in life is to stand literally at hell's gates and chase people far far away from hell. its like standing at your least favourite school and telling your juniors NOT to go to this school. that's a quote man! I mean what greater purpose and fulfilment can we get than to see heaven more and more polulated....i mean COME ON! look at places like www.myspace.com and www.friendster.com.....weird comparison but why is it people FLOCK there by the thousands? even the newest craze facebook? its a hit all over the world....why cant heaven be like that?

i hope thus, we'll all listen to the right voice, the right voice of truth that leads us to the only way to heaven....not by atonement of our sins by human efforts but by faith in Jesus THRU grace.

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God"
Eph 2:7
