what an ardent affection and whim that i have for the literature works of Jane Austen. im completely delighted with her novels-Becoming Jane and Pride and Prejudice. I can assure that i am not fond of reading novels and i will tell you how did i come about the reading in the following. Literally, they make movies out of the novels. talking about the movies, I am crazy about the ball, the dancing, the gowns, their tones in expressing the words, the language.
i feel like dancing and subconsciously some of the speeches are reiterated in my mind. in addition to it, i even read aloud the novels trying to imitate the way they speak. haha i relish it and it's quite fun. basically, this is how i did come about the reading. quite unsual i suppose.
During Jane Austen's lifetime, the ball and the dancing were the very great opportunity for the poor single women to get their husbands, yeah the rich one of course. But the main actor and actress not always urge to marry for the sake of prospects or securities. they still wait for the affection to blossom on its own.

while reading the novel, the movie itself flashed back and i personally gained more deeper understanding of the movie and the message that the author is trying to reveal. More importantly, i learn more vocabularies. So, the movies and the novels are worth having.

commitment

What first comes into my mind once prompts with the word ‘commitment’. Well, i would say it embraces a diverse range of interpretations, and i myself interpret as an obligation, sacrifice, calling, discipline, or perhaps it may inclusive faith as well. truthfully i confess i find it diffcult to carry on, sometimes, with the commitment that i have made. However, i always attempt to fulfil it...oh no i should say ‘to get it done’. Devotion, for example, is one of them that i am ALMOST lacking lately. Stupendously, it always takes me by suprise whenever i decided to read even though i do not feel like reading it at all. What drives me is the Holy Spirit i supposed. God always speaks and surely reveals something new to me through His Word uniquely. I relived one day i read the book of esther, and this was happened when i did not feel like doing my devotion, and God spoke differently this time. He spoke about pageant-how Esther became a queen. in the midst of reading, i muttered saying how i wanted it very much. My point is that God does talk about things, yeah for example about the pageant. He will share about things that amaze you and i or even make you and i laugh when things are tedious, hectic or even when things are fine and tolerable.

Today, Pastor Dave was preaching about giving unto the Kingdom of God (Matthew 19: 16-26). It was our second miracle offering. It was powerful indeed. Listen to this “place your gifts in Jesus’s hands and see what God can do with it”-it is basically talked about multiplication God can do as we trust Him in our giving. Isn’t it powerful? God is not interested in your money for He has abundant, but what God takes interest is that the heart of giver and the step of the giver in giving. Take for example, the old lady who gave 2 pennies. What she gave was not the surplus or leftover but she gave all that she had. Whereas others gave from their abundance or perhaps leftovers. Oh gosh, i just noticed the different. ‘That others’ did not have faith that God will provide the $ that He had placed in their heart or perhaps they are afraid that $ did not enough to cover their daily expenses. On the contrary, the old lady trusted God will meet her needs and that’s the reason she took the step of faith by giving all that she had in her possession. in the end of the service, i was challenged to give beyond and above i could ever imagine. I will pray about it and see what God will place in my heart.

Another commitment i recently made is to intercede for my family. My focus would be in the areas of forgiveness, transformation, healing and more love.
This is it. I’ll pray that God will empower and enable me to be faithful to do all my commitments.

true love

i was just so darn stressed out..it's almost 12am.
foreseeing that nothing could be done to get rid of my stressfulness, i decided to watch a movie..
yeah probably everybody knew about the movie. it's called "the walk to remember".
believe it or not, it's my first time watching this. you could probably laugh at me after knowing this very fact.
i was so touched. i did cry..what i learned from that is about true love. while watching i flashed back and asked myself whether i do have a true love.. whether i truly love those peole around me. in the meantime, i caught up by God's love. he always gives me his true love. God says love is never jealous nor resentful. wow what a perfect love that my God has. this love that has kept me alive till today.
i cried out to God to purify my heart and teach me again how to love the way he loves me and his people. i just reliased that sometimes i dont have that pure love,i.e. love without jealousy and resentment...


i want to come back to my very first love...
Help me Lord to love you and your people as well. because it always a joy to love you. i find peace in loving you..this is out of my strength Lord. change me from inside out.
