Is that You God?

If you have been reading the newspapers lately, they seem to be highlighting a lot of plights regarding transexuals. Another article came out today which you can read here about how a transexual alleged that she was humiliated and forced to strip in front of three policemen after being detained for suspected vice. And all this happening right after the "infamous couple" incident.

I'm beginning to wonder
..."Is that You God? Are You trying to say something to the Church?"
 I actually went to the bookstore to find out how does the Church in general address this issue on gays and transexuals and reaching out to them. And what about gay churches? I was actually quite surprised that I couldn't find any...or maybe I was looking in the wrong bookshop.

Well, this issue has been around since Noah's time so why so hard to find a book that addresses this issue....maybe God is asking the Church and maybe specifically the Malaysian Church to wake up and do something about it. What say You God?

Why so downcast O my soul?

Recently I seem to be having a few upheavals in my personal relationships and also those around me. Don’t you get the feeling that sometimes months go by without something big happening and all of a sudden it all just comes pouring upon you? Is it me or it is absolutely no fault of mine. *blinks innocently* In the past few weeks, I seem to have upset one of the most patient and sweetest guy I know…though not intentionally. I’ve apologized and tried to make things better but he hasn’t been replying my messages nor picking up my calls. Zip. Nada. Nothing. I don’t know but lately I feel like whatever I say or do, people seems to be reacting negatively or things just blows up in my face. Then my brother did a very good job in making me feel like a failure by letting me know I am not making enough to help with the family finances. It’s bad enough that I am already frustrated with the fact that I do not have the resources to get a degree or get a place of my own… or even my own wheels. Now h...

RM 1 Million Dollar Wedding (Part II)...Go ahead, throw the first stone!

Just saw another article on the 'infamous couple' this morning and was feeling a little outraged. Transsexual drama queen?? Sinful couple?? Who gave these people the right to condemn them? Who do they think they are? God? My anger is not because he is my friend, but the at the judgemental attitude of society. Too often we are ready to accuse others unjustly of wrongdoing. We fail to see that we, ourselves, are guilty of sins. Judging is necessary in life, but it must be done fairly. Even as we judge, so we shall be judged (Matthew 7: 2). Sometimes, our motives for judging are for improper purposes. Putting someone down makes us feel superior but it is actually a manifestation of pride. When we enjoy besmirching another, we become "stone throwers" and we lose grace. If you look in the Bible at passage (John 8:1-11) , Jesus didn't condemn sinners but extended outrageous grace. The scene is the temple courts where Jesus was teaching. The Pharisees, unable to g...

Christmas Time!!

It's Christmas time!!! My favourite time of the year. I love the ambience and the mood...the Christmas carols. The Christmas decorations...the whole works. I was at Mid Valley recently and they decorated the place really well. It kind of reminded me of some magical Christmas dreamland....something like the land of Narnia. I took some pictures of the landscaping but since my handphone camera wasn't very good, it didn't really do justice to it. I really like the this one. It was like going into some sort of medieval castle....probably the Snow Queen's castle or something like that. Well, being an artistic person and pretty much a dreamer, I would have loved to do this kind of visual merchandising...if only just for fun. I love creating beautiful stuff and love to be surrounded by things of beauty. Just going up into this little "fantasy architecture" just kinda makes you forget time and just for a while, it seems you are in another place, another time.....
