Be a Do-It-Yourself Person

Hey there!

I purposely write on this blog to share what I've been through yesterday, ha! so.. yesterday was a new season launch for the brand I'm working with now. It's very crucial, where we receive lots of new arrival (in huge qty as well). Night before, me and my team had a meeting for manpower planning, coordination, etc.. everything and everyone seems okay. Until the day, 3 staffs non-show without any info. sigh. I'm very disappointed because those people are people I can rely on. So, it's just me with few staffs training. I think it won't finished perfectly, I think there'll be a huge mess. I rotate the coordination 3 SECTIONS all by myself while controlling the operational. But.. It's done. Sometimes I'm wondering what God has made me from, He really equips me.

Do you still remember when God told Moses to tell Pharaoh, "let my people go."? Moses said, "God, I can't do that. I'm stutter. I'm not a good speaker. Please send someone else." but I love what happened. Just when Moses stood before Pharaoh, something rose up inside him. Moses put his shoulder back and held his head high and said: "Thus says the Lord God of Israel: Let My people go." (Exodus 5:1).

The things I've learned that you don't need someone to do something for you. You don't need anyone to tell you what to do. YOU'RE EQUIPPED. God wouldn't have presented you with opportunities if He had not already given you every thing you need.

Don't let anyone play upon your supposed 'weaknesses'. Yes, there may be times you need help, and that's fine. But don't let someone do for you what you can do for yourself. Don't become too dependent on others.

God would never have told Moses to go to speak in front of Pharaoh unless He knew Moses could do it. You may have limitations, but you don't need a crutch. You have been equipped with everything you need to fulfil your destiny.

Have a great Thursday! :)

In Love with Being in Love

You know that yummy feeling you get in the pit of your stomach when you are in love? You know how world looks brighter, the birds sing louder and your heart is happier? Being in love has got to be one of the most amazing things that can ever happen. It's a drug, it gives your body high, setting off all kinds of endorphins that make you feel invincible. Love is so amazing that a lot of times it can be an addiction. When that happens you fall in love with the feeling of being love. And while the feelings of love aren't bad, to be in love with them, rather than actually in love with the person, is a messed-up kind of love. And it can do all kinds of things to your heart and mind. 

When you're in love with being in love, you do stupid things. You settle for stupid love rather than real, genuine and true love. See, true love doesn't always feel good. It sometimes requires you to give up things you want and to do things you don't want. It's sacrificial. When you're in love with love, you miss out on the true purpose of love, and you become all about feelings and less about action. 

If you notice that you have a guy in your life in order to feel happy, then you might just be in love with being in love. Feeling love should never be your goal, but giving love should be :) 

If you are in love in being in love, then it's time to get your life straightened out. Consider these facts about love and look at the love you crave to see how it compares: 
- Love doesn't get mad when it doesn't get what it wants
- Love isn't jealous 
- Love isn't happy when other people grovel 
- Love doesn't require good feelings
- Love keeps no record of wrong 
- Love isn't 'all about me'
- Love is selfless
- Love doesn't make demands. 

Bloom Where You're Planted

Too many people are negative and discouraged because they don’t like where they are. They don’t like their spouse. They don’t like their jobs. That’s not where they want to be. They are always fighting against something. They are always trying to go somewhere else. But I’ve learned that God is more interested in changing me than He is in changing my circumstances. As long as I’m getting sour, upset and discouraged, that attitude will keep me right where I am. If you want to see change, if you want to see God open new doors, the key is to bloom where you’re planted. You can not wait until everything becomes better before you decide to have a good attitude. You have to be the best you can be right where you are.

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD” (Psalm 37:23, NKJV). That means as long as we’re in faith, where we are is where we’re supposed to be. When tough times come your way, instead of being negative and complaining, say: “God, I may not like this, but I know I’m here in Your divine plan and You would not have allowed it unless You had something good for me. It may not feel good right now, but I know it’s helping me to grow and become all that You created me to be.”

When you pass the test of blooming where you’re planted and keep the good attitude even when you don’t feel like it, and stay calm when you don’t get your way, and honor authority even when you don’t agree, you are sowing a seed for God to take you where He wants you to go.

Have you ever thought that God may have you somewhere on purpose so you can be a good example? You’re not in a position for God to promote you if you’re not the best you can be right where you are.

Understand, God has exactly where He wants you. If you’ll learn to be happy where you are, God will take you where you want to be. He’s promised He will give you the desires of your heart. (quoted from Joel Osteen)

just want to share my new favorite song from my friend.. it feels like God is hugging me while singing this song! http://youtu.be/1AtjWBwFfGE

Here I Am, by Leona Lewis

This is a crazy world
These can be lonely times
It's hard to know who's on your side
Most of the time

Who can you really trust
Who do you really know
Is there anybody out there
Who can make you feel less alone
Some times you just can't make it on your own

If you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I'll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, hmmm

If you have broken dreams
Just lay them all on me
I'll be the one who understands
So take my hand

If there is emptiness

You know I'll do my best
To fill you up with all the love
That I can show someone
I promise you you'll never walk alone

Well if you need a place where you can run
If you need a shoulder to cry on
I'll always be your friend

When you need some shelter from the rain
When you need a healer for your pain
I will be there time and time again
When you need someone to love you
Here I am, oooo

Everybody needs somebody who
They can pour their heart and soul into..

In Which Zone Are You?

The God Girl with Her Enemies

love by it's nature isn't picky. it doesn't just offer itself to the lovable, but it must be offered to the unlovable as well. If you only love those who love you, then what good is love to a world that is dying? Jesus asks, "If you love those who love you, do you deserve a reward? Even the tax collector do that! Are you doing anything remarkable if you welcome only your friends? Everyone does that!" (Matthew 5:46-47). Love must include even your enemies. Jesus makes it clear when He says, "But I tell you this: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" (Matthew 5:44).

you know some people will hate you for a ridiculous reason, or just because they've heard something bad about you from others, or even they will hate you for no-reason; don't be surprised! I know what it's like to be hated, but you and I have no reason to fight back. To hate is to lose and to love is to win. God says: "Don't repay evil for evil. Don't retaliate with insults when people insult you. instead, pay them back with a blessing. This is what God has called you to do and He will bless you for it." (1 Peter 3:9). See it as an opportunity to prove that God is more important than anything anyone could throw at you. You might failed to love your enemies like I did before, but God wants us to have a selfless love as it's written: "Freely you have receive, freely give" (Matthew 10:8) and today choose to trust your life and your love to the God who never disappoints.
