Christmas is around the corner. Is a festive season for everyone to celebrate, not juz restricted to the Christians. Have u ever thought of Jesus Christ and whether God really exists? I think all has questioned this before. I dun believe in coincidence and accidents or being "lucky", everything in life happens for a purpose, for a reason. My reason would be God arrangements and His blessings on me.

I went church yesterday and the message really had an impact on me, so i decide to share it here, regardless of whether you believe it or not. The message is God does things in favour of you. It means that when unexplainable good things happened, even minor incidents, is God's favor for you. It is God's supernaturnal power on you like the Ruth & Joseph story. It can be winning money, marrying the one you love & not out of obligation, to small things like getting seats immediately in a crowded place. It is not abt luck, it is God favours on us. All you have to do is to believe and pray to Him.

You may think that you dun need a religion coz your life is smooth sailing and pple only worry abt bread and butter. A religion probably cant feed you, cant give you wealth. You need God coz

1) humans beings are weak physically, vulnerable to illness

2) we are weak emotionally,

3) we have no supernatural power,

4) we cant predict life & death,

5) the good lives we are leading now may not always be this way,

6) our friends & family wont be around to help us all the time.

7) you yourself alone cant solve certain problems

8) His love for us is eternal

IS only in times of darkness or under difficult circumstances, when u're saved and seen the light, then you will realise is God's favor for you and his presence.

I'm not from a christian family. I came to believe in God when i was in sec 2. During that yr, i had those silly friendship problems and there were gossips abt me. From then, i went school's chapel everyday and knew a senior. She and God were my strength and support when i was feeling rather down at that time. I believe God sent her to help me. I went chapel everyday until i backslided in sec 4 until this yr. I'm tryin hard to stay close to Him now, is hard to be really commited. I'm proud of brother who is a faithful devotee, God speaks to him. Even now i'm still qte slacked. I confessed i dun go church every week :( I find comfort in praying coz i think too much.

Religion is a controversial issue...

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. -John 3:16-17
