AFFECTIONS

5 areas we should set our affections upon:

1. Set your affections on God
=> presence of God is fixed on the heavenly tings, not on the tings made by man
=> the love we have for pple cannot be more than our love for God!!

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. -Deuteronomy 6:5

He who loves father or mother more then Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. -Matthew 10:37

=> God should be no. 1 in our lives!!

2. Set your affections on the commandments of God
=> God's commandments are an expression of God's charactor
=> if you forget the commandments of God, you will forget God
=> God's commandments bring enlightening of the eyes and joy in the heart

The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandments of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes; The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgements of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. -Psalm 19:7-11

=> when we put our affections on the commandments of God, we are protected from sinning against Him!!!

3. Set your affections on the House of God and worship Him
=> where ur treasure is, there your heart will also be

"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on this earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. -Matthew 6:19-21

One thing i have desired of the Lord, that will i seek: that i may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple. -Psalm 27:4

My soul longs, yes, even faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God. -Psalm 84:2

ask yourself, what is the ting that u love most?

4. Set your affections on God's people
=>we must have a special love for the people of God! our best friends must be christians
=> we must inconvenience ourselves sometimes to help others
=> be there to be a blessing; to see how we can help

Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith. -Galatians 6:10

5. Set your affections on heavenly things
=> gifts of the spirit

Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.
-1 Corinthians 14:1

=> Second coming of the Lord
-we should be living for His coming

Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.
-1 Thessalonians 5:6

=> God is coming to judge
-we should live clean and righteous lives (Kingdom-Living)
-we should be walking right with God

Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil; for the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. -Romans 14:16

=> Put our focus on God
-our calling from God for our lives
-God can turn around bad things into something good

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. -Romans 8:28

Let us redirect our affections on God!!! n when we do so, God will pour down His blessings so great tt our storehouses will not be able to contain them!! Amen!!

(down-phase)
thank you MOST HIGH
You've showered me wif blessings
You've filled mi cup to overflow
sometimes i'm mean
other times i've sinned
nv turning Your face away
You've held on to me tightly
Your grip soo real
You whispered words of forgiveness
my guilt n shame You took
THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME WHOLE!

(stressed-phase)
heavy-ladened n worn-out i came
covered wif scars n bruises;
knocking on the gates of heaven
sobs n whines filled the place
taking me in Your arms
You cradled n soothed my soul
You gave me the reassurance i needed
You met my needs
You breathed down my neck
You stirred my heart
You enveloped me wif Your presence
changing mi heart n thoughts
You silently rearranged mi priorites
THANK YOU MY SOURCE OF STRENGTH AND REFUGE;
MY EVER-PRESENT HELP IN TIMES OF NEED!!!

i can't give You the praise tt You soo rightly deserve
there's only soo much the english dictionary can describe
but out of mi heart i offer to You
the song of praise n adoration..........Hallelujah!!!

*BLESSED;THANKFUL;HAPPY*

a wonderful friend i've found in you
always willing to sacrifice
through thick n thin we emerged
holding on to the memories we treasured
the tears n joy we shared
i'll nv forget!!

tempers flared
misunderstandings arose
hearts broke
tears flowed

i once thot of letting go;
memories wouldn't permit me to do so
tongue-tied n distant we became

months passed
new friends were made
challenges in life faced

in the absence of one another
we learnt to be independent
to tk blows in our stride

on 13 april,
you showed n told me how much u cared
you took mi hand and brought me back into ur world

thank you mi friend
for your love, care n trust!!!!

thank you mi friend
for allowing me to mk a difference!!!!

thank you mi friend
for not giving up on me!!!!

thank you mi friend
for always being there!!!!

no turning back;
no turning back....

THANK YOU JESUS!!!!!!!! I'M SOOO BLESSED!!!!!!

ack...dis entry is going to be wierd...but jux wanna get it down larhx...bear wif me k? hur hur hur...

well, i'm currently rather fond of beetles becox one lil black beetle thot me smt while i was bathing on mon nite...

ok, jux picture mee wif shower foam all over, holding the shower head in 1 hand n singing at the top of mi voice...
i was doing all tt one dark dire mon nite when dis irritating beetle starting advancing on me...
as a result, i had to pause wat i was doing n use the shower spray to push it to the far end of mi bathing square...
wif tt done i started scrubbing n soaping miself...but when i opened mi eyes, there was tt beetle jux a few inches away frm mi big toe...maaan!!! i thot i had gotten rid of him jux a few minutes ago...
sooo, i scolded him n proceeded to move him to the place where hair n water get sucked down the tubes...
but, again n again tt beetle would crawl out frm where-ever i placed him n attempt to seduce mi succulent flesh..seeing it struggle through the watercurrent which must haf seemed like nigera falls to him realli set me tinking...
if such a small creature wif puny brains understands determination n doesn't gif up wat more us rite??

hahhaa, thanks to tt black beetle i studied till 2 plus 3am tt nite...no link but i jux wanna type tt down..heee...

thank you Jesus for showing me wat a lil black beetle can do...

Wove Rainbows At Monday, April 11, 2005

there was a lil ger hu lived wif here dad here in singapore
she owned a very large doll collection
her favourate doll was an angel made of fine china
it stood high on the shelf out of her reach

it was a rainy day n she couldn't go out to play..
stuck at hme she got bored
longing for some entertainment
both she and her dad started sparring
a kick countered by a dodge

cornering her dad by the window in her room
the lil ger advanced wif a karate chop
instinctively, her dad stuck out both hands 2 block
while doing so, he's elbow hit the shelf
sending the angel doll tumbling frm where she stood
both daughter n father tried to save her
but in a split second, she lay a sorry sight on the floor
smithereens of her were everywhere

guilt-striken, her dad immediately gathered the fragments
took up some super glue n started fixing her
piece by piece he painstakingly glued together
the hours flew by
when he was done,
crevices could be seen everywhere
she was no longer the perfect lil angel doll

dad tried to appease he's lil ger
he told her to throw away the broken doll
he would get her a new one; an even better one
gathering the doll in her hands, the lil ger answered softly
"no dad, don't throw it away..i still love it though its imperfect"

wat an amazingly profound answer given by a lil ger...dis story nv fails to remind me of how much God loves us...He accepts us jux the way we are...He knows tt we have sinned, we are sinning n we will sin but instead of forsaking us, He said : "Come back to Me and I will make you whole again...I will erase all ur sins n will not remember ur transgressions...u shall be Mine and I shall be your God.." wat unconditional love!!~

no more whining n complaining bout how the world works...no more i hate u, u hate me...no more this world is soo unfair....no more questions bout why pple get hurt...why hearts are broken..why lives are torn apart...wat do u expect since we live in a broken down world...rather, thank you Lord for everyting..its a new day, time to tackle the world n satan can't bring me down becox U'll be there protecting me...thank you for ur love!!!

i'm blessed...
