Text Me When You’re Officially Changed

Posted on | January 3, 2010 | 1 Comment

I've been doing lots of bonding with people lately, having deep talks and also lame talks, I must say either way they are pretty productive. Getting to know people more, getting to know their passions, their problems, getting encouraged and inspired, getting to encourage and also help them. I think it all can be summed up with one word, CARE. The love of da awesome J is everywhere.

This is the love that should exists in the Body of Christ today. Really. In fact this is ALL we need. LOVE and CARE and SUPPORT for each other. That's all we need to change the world, to go for Greater Things together, to set a fire of revival in the nation. Somewhere along the way, some people have gotten carried away by how to run a service or a church or a fellowship and to make it great rather than our Great Commission, to bring the love of Christ to people.

"Let me give you a new command: Love one another. In the same way I loved you, you love one another. This is how everyone will recognize that you are my disciples—when they see the love you have for each other." - John 13:34-3

The same book that tells us the TRUTH about greater things, told us this as well. True genuine unconditional love that overflows from the love of God to us shown to the world, that's revolution. It warms the world up with love and care. Spiritual global warming anyone? haha!

Think I'm being Idealistic? Think I should come back to reality? Yea, pretty much! =) A few decades ago, it was idealistic that blacks and whites should enjoy equal rights in the US. A decade ago, It was idealistic in Malaysia that the parliament should achieve equilibrium. A century ago, it was idealistic that you and I should even go to school! Yesterday, It was idealistic that you'd even survive today! So tell me, WHAT IS BEING IDEALISTIC?

Have i mentioned that in His words, He believed in us that we would succeed in Great Things? Have I told you that it is psychological to think that you CANNOT? that you are NOT PRO ENOUGH? that you are NOT READY? Before the word TEENAGER was introduced in the 80s, there was just childhood and adulthood and you and I should already be qualified to lead an army, to work as an adult, even more effecttive becuase of our physical advantages. Then the word 'teenager' was introduced, 'teenagers' turned into some lowly creature with accomplishing your chores and cleaning up that bed as a BIG DEAL. Not that you shouldn't do it, it should come naturally. So the expectations dropped, so did the performances. Tragically. But the fact remains, WE ARE GIVEN THE ABILITY TO ACCOMPLISH IMPACTFUL THINGS.

"Either you think you can or you think you can't, you're probabaly right.", says Henry Ford, the founder of Ford.

So how does it relate? I suppose it's time to stand up, everyone and anyone. The lies from the evil one shall be revealed. CHANGE IS POSSIBLE. Any kind of CHANGE.

He said 'Let there be light' and there was light! He said through a prophet 'A child shall be born unto us' and yearrss later it happened, it changed the world 360. Gosh I have no time and space to list tonnes of the others. But according to that trend, what do you think would happen if He tells us these?

"For NOTHING is IMPOSSIBLE with GOD." - Luke 1:37

"I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father." - John 14:12

PS: I think the title is GREAT! haha! Janice left me with that. Though she was referring to my change from DiGi to the Hotlink Youth Club plan. But if you take it deeper, it does mean a lot. Miraculously fits the title for this post as well. Way to go sis! =P

She's an awesome sis by the way, really inspiring person, proud to call her a sibling and to look like her (or vice versa) or whatever.. haha! Check out her blog here and here. ;)

So telepathically, Janice my sister wrote something that pretty much compliments this post without really knowing what i wrote. It's pretty cool. haha! So ladies and gentlemen, the OTHER part of this post. =)

    AMEN DUDE!!! When we change to be like Christ, that's when everything else will follow. Spread Christ's love people!! : )

    Oh, btw, have you heard of Joyce Meyer's book, the Love Revolution? Sounds just like this post man. I soooo wanna get that book.

    Janice, awesome title la. Though I have a feeling the sentence is wrong for the purpose you intended.... but this has a deeper meaning than the original intended purpose.

    Anyways, signing off!

    I want to be in the world, but not of the world and try my best to change the world for His purpose.

    What do you think I am referring to as 'world'?

    This good-looking person you're looking at serves an audience of One, and loves to do that, loves to play, loves writing, loves designing and filming, loves his country ALOT. Syok sendiri very often. L.A.M.E (according to multitudes of friends).

    Seriously serious when he's seriously serious. What? I'm serious!
