Faith like Potatoes - Movie

Mountain moving FAITH


Last night i was watching a christian movie called Faith like Potatoes. It's about a farmer who has a temper, reluctant to hear about the church, works day and night just to raise his family. One thing that inspired me most is that it's based on a true story and to think that some great miracles that were shown in the movie were actually part of the story is just amazing. How God works in many of us, use us as vessels to witness to others. It's truly an inspiring movie and i urge you guys who's reading this to watch it. Movies like this don't come out very often anymore as the world is slowly changing and becoming more and more manipulative. What is common to the world now is consider "Right" if you get what i mean. I certainly won't wanna tell you more or i'll ruin the movie for you(spoiler).

Just recently, many problems arose from my friends. Mostly dealing with relationships. I find it rather hard as well and i can feel what they're going through. If only they knew God and trust Him, all things would be made well in Him. IF ONLY... they humble themselves to pray and seek God, getting rid of all ignorance and just believe, I'm sure God would answer their prayers. He has greater plans than what they already have in mind. Plans far beyond our expectations. God called us to be in this place, in this family, with these friends for a reason.

This is because God loves you. That's right, YOU.

2 Chronicles 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Chinese New Year Blessings!!!

GONG XI FA CAI!!!! And of course here comes the angpows.

Chinese New Year isn't about angpows for me but it's about reunion with family and friends. It's a little quiet for me this year because some of my good buddies can't join us for house to house visiting but nevertheless, the others still made the time worth while. =)

I see Chinese New Year differently this year. God opened my eyes to see that everyone has their own perfect culture. From wat i've learnt in the bible, God put us in each place, career and even culture for a reason. I'm glad i'm a Chinese and living in Malaysia. There must be some importance of my existence, not forgetting you guys who are reading my blog right now that you play an important role by just standing where you actually are. Do not forget this, but cherish every moment of it.

Just yesterday, my mum was sick with sore throat and that her mood went really down. It was early Chinese New Year and pharmacies weren't open and even Guardian didn't have a pharmacist inside. What we could do was to pray. A simple prayer that my mum would be healed and we're off to find any opened pharmacy. On the way, I felt God speaking to me suddenly as my dad and I were finding a pharmacy. God said this " Do not worry, ask your dad to drive back home, your mum would be healed tomorrow." I had my doubts and kept silent until my dad and I could only find cough medicine and panadol. I believe God was testing my faith in Him and that i should keep practicing my faith in Him. He wants us to trust Him and place Him in the center of our lives. So i urge you all to try this, if you're having any troubles, say a simple prayer.

It's easy! For example if you're sick : God please heal my sickness, In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Believe and you'll be healed. Amen means I agree/believe/entrust.

Oh btw, my mum is recovering quickly from her sore throat =) It's times like this we can entrust our Father in Heaven.

Have a Blessed Chinese New Year!!!
