Romans 3:23-24
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came from Christ Jesus.
These scriptures remind me that GOD has given us most precious gift in our lives which is His Jesus Christ. My salvation is precious gift from GOD. We should praise Him and thanks Him always for our salvation. Not that we have chosen Him, but because He has chosen us. Hahaha... GOD bless

Romans 2:24
As it is written: "God's name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."
We do not live an upright life even after we are saved. We fall short on God's glory. We fail to lives our life that shed light to others 's lives.We hope that God will forgive us if His name is blasphemed by others because of us. We pray that He will has mercy for us and be patient with us and still mold us and lead us on our way to be more JESUS CHRIST like. May God forgive us for our everyday sin whether or not it come to out notice. May God be our everyday guidance. May God be our everyday helper. May God strengthen us and empower us to live an upright lives and bring Him all the glory and praise. May His name be revered through out the whole earth.
He is my LORD and my salvation. Thanks you LORD

Romans 1:18-32
The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities- his eternal power and divine nature- have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they become fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for the images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual imouritty for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worship and served created things rather than the Creator- who is forever praise. Amen.
Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what out not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickednes, evil, greed abd depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanders, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
God's standards are always higher than our standards. God's way is always higher than our way. Don't be a fool to take God's word and commands so lightly and miss the truth that bring us hope, peace and love. We are all sinner and the only way to be saved is to repent and turn to God for forgiveness and salvation. May God bring the light to whoever read this. May God's word be our constant guidance in our life. May God bless those who choose to do what is right. May God has mercy and grace for everyone of us.
May Your name be praise through out the world.
All glory belongs to You alone. We rejoice for the salvation that You have given to us through JESUS CHRIST.
God loves u
God bless u

Proverbs 7:1-5
My , keep my words and store up my commands within you.
Keep my commands and you will live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye.
Bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart.
Say to wisdom, "You are my sister," and call understanding your kinsman;
they will keep you from the adulteress, from the wayward wife with her seductive words.
I think the book that title " boy meets girl" is really a cool book. The author of this book is Joshua Harris. If anyone has chance, just buy yourself this book. Read through it and i believe it will enlighten your soul for all men/boys and women/girls.
These are what the author writes:
"If you want godly men to respect and cherish you as a woman, refuse to buy in to our culture's obsession with being physical beautiful and sexually alluring. This is an attitude that springs from motives of your heart and extends to the way you dress and act around men."
"There's a big difference between dressing attractively and dressing to attract"
For others to respect for who we are, we really need to make a choice in determining what should we dress and how should we act. U will only gain the respect when u do what is right and act from a sincere heart. Don't fool others because you yourself will be the greatest fool. May God enlighten all who read and may God be my guard. God bless

I read a very cool book. The title of the book is " boy meets girl" and the author is Joshua Harris.
I would like to share what he wrote about men and women as follow:
Let's Be Men
1) Assume the responsibility of leading and
initiating in your relationships with women.
2) Be a spiritual leader in your relationships
with women.
3) Do little things in your relationships with
women that communicate your care, respect and
desire to protect.
4) Encourage women to embrace godly femininity.
A challenge to the Girls : Be Godly Ladies
1) In your relationships with godly men,
encourage and make room for them to practice
servant leadership.
2) Be a sister to the men in your life.
3) Cultivate the attitude that motherhood is a
noble and fulfilling calling.
4) Cultivate godliness and inward beauty in your
life.
Let's take courage and embrace to the role that God intend us to be. May God helps us up in our weaknesses and mold us, so we can shine and soar like an eagle.

1 peter 3:4 - Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.
彼得前书 3：4 ‒ 只要以里面存着长久温柔、安静的心为装饰；这在神面前是极为宝贵的。
Jonh stott writes:
The church should be a veritable beauty parlour, because it encourage its women members to adorn themselves with good deeds. Women need to remember that if nature has made them plain, grace can make them beautiful, and if nature make them beautiful, good deeds can add to their beauty.
Hahaha.. I wonder why so many people pursue the outter beauty that will flade one day. Many women and men are pursuing after the beauty of appearance. Why so many people spend so much money to visit beauty salon, some people even spend vast amount of money to go for plastic surgery for the glimpse of the beauty that will flate. The only beauty that will spark and last is the beauty from one's heart. Why so little people caultivate on inwardly beauty that will last? Is it sound funny? I believe the true beauty is inner beauty. Only the inwardly beauty that make a person shine and spark. It is really superficial to strive to grasp on the beauty that is fate and will not last.
Lastly may God lighten everyone who read and has a blessed day.

I had read a christian book. The title of the book is " Boy meets Girl". I have found one very meaningful sentence which is 'You can't be truely loved if you're not truly known'. I believe that is very truth. Many people treat love like an instant noddle. I don't think there is true love. That's why so many marriage ended up in divorce because people treat it too lightly, show no commitment and respect. When disagreement and arguement arose, marriage will be in vulnerable. It is the result of prematured love. When he/she is in "love", he/she does not take time to find out who another party truly is. They follow their feeling and do not take time to find out more about another person's character, thinking, goals of life etc. Hence many problems come along after marriage and endanger the marriage. Love take time to understand and to nurture. Perfect love does not seek our own benefit but the benefits of another person. Perfect loves can only found in GOD. Haha... GOD loves every single one of us. HE know us in person. Praise the LORD. hahaha...

Philippians 4:6-7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to GOD. And the peace of GOD, which trenscends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
When we hope to get anything too badly, we will lose the joy and peace. But when we pray and trust GOD do listen to our prayer, though He may/may not grant us our request, we can stand firm that He will give us what we need and what is the best for us. He will restore our peace and joy. We can find a good rest in Him when we do not hold anything back, but to lay all things under his feet. Hahaha....
Prayer does not change GOD, but prayer changes us. When we pray according to GOD's will, prayer does move the hands of GOD. Hahaha...
I am very happy to have such a great GOD and feel so blessed. I don't know what GOD is doing to me, but i know GOD is doing something freat to my life. I can't see the outcomes now. But i know HE is doing something great. Hahaha... He is doing something great to each and single of HIS. Hahaha...

"The evil in our desire typically does not lie in what we want, but in that what we want it too much."
God will not give us everything we requested for because not all we asked are good to us. But GOD will give us what we need and He know what is best for us. We always miss GOD when we insist too much of what we want. Hahaha...
Have a blessed day.
