Its already Februay 2008

I will say it again! Time flies. I have concluded that nothing flies faster than time. Its already February into the new year!

Work has been busy and yup, i do feel i blog less often these days.

My church is organising a Eureka course or "Alpha Course" as it is commonly known. Its a 6 week course and its main focus is to reach out to non christians and tell them the good news about Jesus.

I am going to give a testimony, which i have already given like 3 times.lol But i wonder what i could say better to tell people of the truth about life? Doesn't anyone find the world so amazing? I look at the trees and the clouds and i know that God has created them. Everything is all linked and inter-dependent on each other and i find that totally so wonderful, so amazing and so beautiful.

I am at a loss actually. I dun know how to tell a non Christian about Jesus. About God. About the way and the truth. About salvation. How to tell them that Jesus has come to save us from darkness 2000 years ago? That God loves us so much that He gave His only begotten Son so that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

How do i tell them that its because of sin that we have fallen short of the glory of God? How to i convince them that life on earth here is only temporary and we have an eternal life to look forward to in heaven?

How do i tell them the good news of salvation that is freely available?

Its tough sometimes because all of us, since we were kids, we were taught that seeing is believing. Even in the court of law, unless it is proven, if not, its not true. But Bible says believe first and then you shall see.

In life, we were taught or it is in human nature to get even with people, to even the score. If u borrow $1 from me, u have to return it. If u hit me for no reason, i am entitled to hit u back! Unless u care about me, then i will care about you. If u love me, then i will love u. If u give me something, then u will get something in return. But the bible says if someone slaps u on the right cheek, turn the other cheek so that the person can also slap u on the left. Love your enemies! If someone does u wrong, make sure u repay him with good. Love your neighbour as yourself. Yup, this is what i am suppose to tell non christians. Tough huh? lol =P It almost contradicts whatever they were taught to be correct. We were brought up to hate your enemies. How ironic now if i were to tell them you shd love them instead.

But then again, if anyone is looking for evidence that God exist, then i would say just look at the clouds and the trees, then look at your hands. If u see a painting, even if there is no one around, u know for sure that a painter did this. Likewise, God's masterpiece is all around us, everyday! =)

So, if u are still looking for the truth, if u are really trying to find the answer, then i got good news for you. For it is written, knock and it shall be open unto you. Seek and you shall find. When u are seeking the truth, you will find it. =)

Praise God!

Amen
