the tsunami of change....

As we know, today marks a new beginning for our small island.DAP has taken over our state constituency but will they change according to what we expected or vice versa?Change is always good but only God holds the future.Malaysia is a country whereby we are able to practice the freedom of religion;have it crossed your mind what if one day our 'new government' goes against our constitution and forbids us to believe or practice our specific religion?All this leads to one thing-the second coming of Christ.I totally agreed with what Steph said today.Why are we sitting on the bench and watch our peers fall into the pit of darkness and of death?If we were to meet God today,will we be worthy of Him or will we see tears of disappointment in His eyes?The bible said we are accountable of the blood of those souls that we failed or took granted of.We often tell our friends that 'Oh!I love you.' or 'Oh!You are my bestest friend on earth'. However,how could we love them so much that we are not able to tell them bout God and of how real is heaven and hell?We,youth tend to think that telling others about salvation is uncool. How can God be uncool when He laid down His life on the cross and bore the sins of mankind on His shoulder. The Bible said that a true friend will be willing to die for his friend. Isn't God a true friend?Whatever religion we believe, we believe that there is a God. I am not in the position to criticize the beliefs of my dear friends. However, I have tasted the goodness of Christ and I can assure you with my life that God is a good and great God. Christ died for us and now, what should we do to repay God's goodness?God doesn't need the works of us as well as our wealth,our deeds or our actions to make Him kingly or His will be done.We are just vessels that are chosen to be used. Stop thinking that the church will be gone without our attendance. If you don't pick up the task,another individual will have the privilege to serve the Almighty. And when judgment day comes,you will be accountable for it.
As i look back, God's hands have always be in my and Joe's life but at times I admit I do take Him for granted,take salvation for granted and take my own life for granted. I miss the time whereby I saw Jesus in a vision and of course, that time the devil was out to get me that I saw satan several times....but all in all, God is forever faithful.It is going to be 5 more years whereby the new government will rule and reign. Let us not sit on the fence and just watch but instead pray. Pray for peace,preservation of freedom of religion,the lost to know God and the coming of Christ. We must be prepare for His coming as He comes like a thief in the night.Well,let us just treasure our lives,our loved ones and most of all our friends who are non-believers.
