Delight thyself in the Lord

Psalm 37 verse 4 states, "Delight thyself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." If we will just spend some time on meditating on His word, the Bible and pray and draw closer to him, then God Himself will give us the desires of our heart. What is your heart's desire for today? Make more money? Be surrounded by loved ones? You can also pray in tongues for a more effective prayer. Afterall, the effective fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much (James 5:16).

Going to Langkawi in a Short While

My colleague just called and I will go to Langkawi at about 3:00pm this evening. This is a business trip and I should be back the next day. I have been to this sleepy group of islands numerous times and feel very relaxed with much greenery and slower pace of life here in the mostly village type of lifestyle. The happening place is Kuah where the Langkawi's government complex, LADA, shopping lots, food outlets and more are situated here.

Just Came Back from Kuala Lumpur

I just arrived home in Penang an hour ago after taking a short nap. There are a few quotations to be done and I hope I can get them completed by today. It seems that there are new enquiries almost every day and here I am busy replying them. Some of them have turned out to be our customers while others are just curious enquiry to check pricing. I am getting used to travelling and shuttling between Penang and KL and back again.

Going down to KL this evening and then to Pahang

I shall be travelling more frequently now as my company business will be concentrated more in Kuala Lumpur. We have already rented a condo for business purposes and need to furnish it with a computer, printer, fax, etc. This way, whenever we travel from Penang, there will be a savings cost instead of staying in a hotel. Let’s say the hotel stay is RM250 per night. If there are many trips down per month, say 10 days of stay, then it would cost RM2,500 but our rental is RM800 for whole month. Plus a bit of spending on furniture, etc, it will save the company money in the long run. So this evening, I will be away for a business trip to KL and then to Pahang.

You are Crowned with Glory and Honor

Psalms 8 verse 5 - For Thou hast in Christ mercifully restored man to his primitive estate, wherein he was but one remove below the angels; from which he was fallen by sin. Crowned - Man, fallen and lost man: who is actually restored to glory and dominion in Christ his head and representative, who received this crown and dominion for man's good, and in his stead; which he will in due time communicate to his members. And so the two expositions of this place concerning mankind and concerning Christ, may be reconciled. For he speaks of that honourable estate conferred first upon Christ, and then by his hands upon mankind. But the words more literally rendered are, Thou madest him a little less than God. And hence some have inferred, that man in his original state was the highest of all creatures.

Some people fluctuate from superiority complex to inferiority complex because they do not know who they are in Christ. Folks, as a Christian, you are crowned with Glory and Honor after Jesus's resurrection. So don't take yourself lightly and feel itimidated by other people's comments about you. It is not what others think, but what the Lord thinks about you; that He willingly died on the cross on your behalf.

Blessed Easter to All

I would like to take this opportunity to wish my readers a Blessed Easter. It is not about bunnies and colorful easter eggs, but all about Jesus. In fact Easter Sunday is equally important or more important than Christmas but it seems to be more subdued. Watch the YouTube video below to see the true meaning of Easter, Jesus's resurrection that saves the whole of mankind.

Proverbs 27

Here's my reading this morning for Proverbs 27.

Proverbs 27

1. Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth.
2. Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; a stranger, and not your own lips.

Verse 1 is poignant today...telling us not to show off or boast about tomorrow and the things that you have; for you never know what will happen next. There was this news that a particular foolish woman exclaimed so loud when she won the lottery that people around her heard it. The next thing that happened was that she was robbed of all her money... most probably from someone who heard her foolish exclamation. The moral of the story is if you have wealth, don't flaunt it and shut up!
