all the riches and all the favors

Ezra 1:6 All their neighbors assisted them with articles of silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with valuable gifts, in addition to all the freewill offerings

i am starting on Ezra now. i love old test. all the stories spur me to learn from mistake and it never amaze me to know that those victories of the past are always make available for us, the children of the present, to claim. i have problem keeping my $$ in the bank! i love to spend and its a bad habit from young. =6 i believe that one should never be stingy and keep keep keep. i love spending $$ on eating, cuz i love the time shared over a meal or drink. i love spending $$ to buy gifts for others cuz i love the smile on their faces. these are my weak links.

last weekend, i pledged a certain amount for the building of our new paya lebar TCC's youth hub. "its a building to host the generations to come and nations will be touched because we trinitians gave." i believe it is true. cuz i am reaping the fruits of the older trinitians who had sowed into TCC-adam. not just the $$ but all the prayers and their hardwork in SB-ing us.

Ezra 1:6 had taught me 1 thing. God is able to turn the hearts of people around us. they may be 'different' from us but when we are under the protection and care of our Lord Almighty, riches and favor will pour into our lives! *jumping up* LORD I CLAIM THIS PROMISE INTO MY LIFE! i may never be rich enough to have gold and silver to give to the entire world but i believe that if i relentlessly follow my dearest PAPA in Heaven, He will never let me go in lack or empty-handed. cuz my PAPA loves me. i am so secured in my PAPA's embrace!

do you need that tight embrace from this wonderful PAPA of mine? you can too! and you know how to... *puppy eyes* i know you do... its just a matter of opening that long... forgotten... closed door of your heart. *smile* i know some of you are so sick of me 'preaching' so i will just let you decide... but... you know who to call when you are ready lar... *wink*
