THE BLANK POST OF THOUGHTS

Turf: in my haven

Dash: just sitting

John 15:3

You are clean because of

the word which I have spoken to

you.

 

I try and reduce myself to an almost blank slate and hope to God that I am creative.

--Ben Kingsley--

Sometimes there are thoughts that are coming in, but it's so random that you cannot exactly pick up the essence, so you just left staring blankly in front of your lappy and you just see the white thing in front of you so blank but you want to put some words on it but it juggles. Gospel songs are playing and it's uplift your spirit. No, it's not that you feel lazy or just want to  lay around. Well, it's Sunday why not everybody is at home doing nothing, as the heat of the sun is too overpowering can't think if I'm going to have a good nap or just read one of my books that has been trap in a four corner of the box. Well, am thinking if I'm going to freed one of them and feed myself a new word. As the tree vines have dancing as the wind blows and the sunlight gives them the energy to survive each day. The hot days are so gruelling that it dries to the meaty thoughts that is popping in, maybe just need to relax a bit since I slept so late like 4:30ish in the morning for no reason at all as I was caught an attended of the time and so busy googling everything on the internet, or maybe one reason is that the caffeine is still active in my veins that keeps me so actively awake till late in the morning and could able to get up at 6ish in the morning to say my morning prayer. Thank God and Glory to God.

...will take a nap or maybe read about one of the books. Still undecided. :)

Admitting that we're guilty,

Acknowledge our sin,

Then trusting in Christ's sacrifice

Will make us clean within. --Sper

JUST MY VOICE IS TELLING IT'S TOO LOUD TO HEAR

Turf: nothing else

Dash: just reading some blogs

Nahum 1:7

The LORD is good, a stronghold in

the day of trouble; and he knows

those who trust in him.

“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.”

 Mother Teresa

Sometimes it is best to pour the feelings in words and write it on as an abstract of emotions, than concealed it which 'cause a rather deep problem. Sealed the lips, throwing words is rather more hurtful, there is a saying that "words is mightier than swords" and I believe in that too. Sometimes, the words just came pouring out as the rain can be, and the wind is blowing you away to a distant place that no one can hear you but you yourself and like the echoing silence sometimes its too deafening, all you wanted is to shout from the top of your lungs before it will explode. But one way or another it just one good outlet to release it.

...too dramatic I guess but that's life. It's one of  the spices of life that makes it more exciting each day. Am getting too boring in here. Oh yeah! Don't mind me. Live life to the fullest thing that you can be, 'cause life is too short to waste on anger, hatred, enviousness, etc., we should appreciate life for real not on any fancy thing that can only be rotten someday.

...I'm getting irrelevant here so I stop before my battery drains out.

Joy is the most infallible sign

of the presence of God.

BOOK SHELVES #1

Turf: in the four corner

Dash: rummaging my books box

1 John 1:5-10

O God, You know my foolishness;

and my sins are not hidden from

You.

Everybody has a bestfriend if other says a man's bestfriend is "dog" for me is "books". When I enter the mall there is one place that only comes in my mind bookstore, it's like an addiction. Well, who doesn't, but I just don't grab a book and look for the cover if it is nice or good. Well, the main factor in buying a book is the Title and then read the sypnosis at the back of the book. I love books who makes me a rounded person, lots of info that I delve into and apply in my everyday life. I took a photo of a few books that I had in my books box just for your reference or you might be interested to read one of this book someday.

1. I Will Not Fear - this book is very much old not because I don't know how to take care of my books but I bought it in a Booksale, when we talk about a book I don't care if I will buy this in a bookseller as long as it contains information that is meaty to read and I find it more interesting. Anyway, about the book it's an inspirational poems, a very uplifting one it's applicable when you are so down and need enlightenment. Of course, the best book for enlightenment is non-other than but "Bible".

2. Single Servings - why I bought it, because as individuals I need a devotional inspiration for the daily life.

3. I Love You I Hate You - I bought this book when my relationship was in a topsy-turvy, this book helps me how to iron things out in a more positive way.

I still have lots of book in my stash as I've said earlier it's one of my best friend beside my human bff. I can pick up some pieces of advice that actually applicable to my situation at times and it opens up my mind to become more positive and understanding in the same way.

RANDOM THOUGHTS #2 - MIRRORING OURSELVES

Turf: bed

Dash: at the peak of sleepiness

Daniel 12:2

Many of those who sleep in the

dust of the earth shall awake

some to everlasting life, some to

shame and everlasting,

contempt.

I'm digging out through my file folders photo when I suddenly get caught of this pic and just thoughts came in.

Sometimes we should look on our reflections, 'cause it speak of who we are...

my niece funny moments

 I love taking pictures via my mobile especially those unattended ones or a snap shot because those one I considered the real actions in life.

♥Quotes♥

An 'enemy' is someone that God

puts in our path that is most in need of our love;

not retaliation or retribution or harm or insult.

RANDOM THOUGHTS #1 - LOOKING THROUGH THE HOURGLASS OF LIFE

Turf: in my nest

Dash: preparing chai

Daniel 12:2

Many of those who sleep in the

dust of the earth shall awake

some to everlasting life, some to

shame and everlasting,

contempt.

Life is so surprising that we doesn't even know what next to come after yesterday, it always teaching us to live for today and live as if we are giving out the best to extend our deepest love, appreciation, smiles, hugs, etc., to someone who is just next beside us even we knew the person or not. To enjoy the moment that is given to us in each every second that we had, and forget about the word "complain", "suffering", "pain", but just live as if there is no better tomorrow than today.

appreciate life, don't waste it

spread your wings and fly, don't doubt yourself; you can make it!

The context of life is so meaningful that we couldn't even define nor we should but the best thing is to live the best out of it, just simply smile when the sun shine in the morning and give thanks to the Lord for the brand new day, or sing along when the birds sing, or just dance in the rain when it pours, life is so amazing in which sometimes we forget to appreciate it existence. We are too busy enough in doing errands, thinking 'bout tomorrow, making things complicated, shall not waste every second of it rather make it more meaningful each in every second that we live for ourselves and for other people.

A DAY BREAK

Turf: Bedroom

Dash: Playing the guitar

1 John 3:10

Whoever does not practice

righteousness is not of God.

One morning it’s like a freshly bake cheese cake, a sweet tooth Mooncake so enticing to wake up your sleepy mood with a freshly brewed aromatic coffee to energize your day.

Every day is a hard day to wake up when you are not a morning person and a lover of sleeping habit, but it’s a day when you say “All Glory to God” for gazing another beautiful sunrise peeping inside your window and those lovely birds singing in your window pane to harmonize the day to begin with. 

Your morning buddies are your alarm clock that receives unpleasing response which hardly beaten just to stop its noisy sound which bother your sound sleep -- pity alarm clock not even appreciated for the value it renders to its unpleasant owner.

I wish it’s always been TGIF and TGIS a day with nothing to do but to lie on my back without a buzzing alarm clock that will spoil my hours of sleep. But no glory without pain everyone needs to work it is one of the necessary things that we need to do to support our practical needs to be able to go on living.

I want to live my day with rainbow colors on a rainy day. Every day is an exciting one to wake up with knowing life is full of surprises which wrapping up the whole day.

While sitting on a soft couch, living on a simple but placid home it’s sometimes slipping on my mind that I’m still lucky to be woken up on each day having this thing around me though it’s not explendid but with a home to wake up with knowing not everybody has a life I had, while others had no shelter to live with, doesn’t have a food to feed their empty stomach nor even gaze a lovely sunrise when some of them sleep behind the filthy bars.

I should be thankful for each day even though there are times when it is hard to wake up and you are tired doing the same routine and not having enough days to beat the stress you had in a week. But the moment I thought of that, I realized that how blessed I am waking up each morning and still doing what I love to do which is facing challenges, and welcome more opportunities that will come my way.

One of a few reasons why I still live and wake up the next day. It's all for the glory of God.

♥Quotes♥

Oh help us, Lord, to live our lives

So unsaved people clearly see

Reflections of your loving heart,

Your kindness, and Your purity. --Sper
