Proverbs 16:3

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3

Saw this verse on one of my friend's MSN messenger nickname. Well, i remember my Church Pastor talked a bit about this verse before, and it kept me thinking.

Dear friends, what will you think when you look at this verse? I'll give you a few examples, hey, i better follow the LORD, this has to be the way for my plans to succeed; hey, i think i have to commit to the LORD, doesn't the Bible says that those who commit will succeed?

I guess not all of us think in such a manner. However, i'm just trying to bring out a point here: You don't commit to the LORD because you want your plans to succeed, you commit because you have to, because you call Him your LORD. I guess the order of things in which people think might be a bit different. Anyway, it's a bit dangerous, possible point for the health and wealth ministry.

It's now 1:27pm and i'm in office now, doing nothing much, but have to really buckle up on that ASP.NET thing, the boss have not really given me any datelines yet, but i guess once he starts giving me, i won't be able to finish, if my programming skills are still at this level.

So i guess--That's All Folks!~!

Byes

The sicko strikes

It's 9:17 am, tuesday, had lots of sleep yesterday, partly because i'm sick, and partly because i took some pills that made me drowsy.

Anyway, it ain't the sickness that's bothering me, it's the "nothing-to-show-boss" that's bothering me. As i've been quite unproductive these few days, so, a bit scared that my "points" has dropped. It's the performance issue, i guess i'm a bit obsessed at getting the boss to like me. but anyhow, this asp.net, dhtml, javascript has been getting on my nerves, and i need help, real solid help.

I guess i need peace too, and that's more important. Maybe the LORD guide me thru this period, and may i also, give my best for him, to him.

Amen

Aren't there too many things to worry about?

It's 10:50 pm now, Sunday night, probably the date shown on the last post was some western time zone. Anyways, felt that there are too many things to worry, too many responsibilities.
Although Jesus said, "do not worry about tomorrow", but anticipation of tomorrow's event is indeed real. If i know that i'll be getting a pay rise tomorrow, won't i be happy today? Well, i could be happy first, and then of course you might say that i might be disappointed if the pay rise doesn't happen later on. But, isn't it the same? it's plain and easy to see that i cannot do anything when i worry, and it quenches the liveliness within me, but how do i overcome it? I guess there are many verses to tell me that, just that it sometimes seems not that close to me.
Work, relationship, things to learn, things to settle, people to meet, standards to keep and improve on, if i were to worry, it's either a long list of many small things, or a short list of a few big important matters. May i find peace in the LORD.
Well, i guess probably the concept of success is still in us. We tend to think that things ought to happen this way and that way; we have a picture in mind, and if the current situation doesn't match up, we worry, why isn't things happen as it's supposed to be? i though my work should be ok, that i should be able to handle the programming stuff, and have a good show to my boss, but coming face to face with a few books, each 500 pages thick, i'm not that sure where to start, how to start, or should i even start from step one?
Simple life, it's good, but how about responsibilities? shouldn't i care for people? shouldn't i provide? i remember last time when i went to the graduation camp organised by the Christian Fellowship, i said, one of my life aim is to be a provider, a provider of needs. And here i am, still trying to sort out my stuff. I guess it's needed for all these, ain't it so?
May the LORD help and guide us, and may He be our light, our lamp, our Way.
Amen

Friday, oh friday

It's a normal working afternoon, i'm now at the lab trying to get my first blog out. Well, at least for al l the hype and attention it's getting, i might as well try it out.

I came here primarily after reading up on the forum set up by Elder Yong, it's at stephentong.org and there was a really really lengthy discussion on is Jesus real? started by a non-believer. Well, arguments after arguments, views after views and points after points, finally she left the forum. I'm not sure about her condition currently, but i guess a brother is taking care of it, and his name is Hedonese (which i don't know what it means either).

So, hopefully this will be a place where by i can continue to posts my thoughts on things, reflections, questions and others. I've named it Wilson's Bar, not because i'm Wilson, just because i like the name. Sounds comfy, cozy with a nice ambience.

please do email me if you have anything to chat or talk with me. My email is suming82@yahoo.co.uk
