Dream - Purpose - LIFE

Hey... it's be a while since I jot down something.. recently, there are too many happenings around my life but I thank God for every bit of it. But one thing I really thank God is, He is my Inspiration. Back early March, I wrote a song named, J.E.S.U.S... and now, end of April, I wrote another song named, Lift Up Your Hands.

I don't know how to express my feelings but God truly make me awe in His presence. Never have I ever thought I would write or to say, compose a song. But now not just "a" song, but two songs already. I can see how God is using my life and bringing me into seeing His BIG picture.

I think it was yesterday that I tweeted about this. "The game of life is one big struggle. We got to hustle just to make it everyday and to find ourselves a way. To fight the fears we facing and grab those dreams we chasing because there ain't no competition when we rise to the occasion, come on!". Think about this, Deogracias might not be one big thing but it is a passion that we dream about and this dream will not be just about dreaming, this goes big. Because behind, in front, next to us, we have the Big G.O.D. Yes, we have God.

And it always starts with a dream. I love dreaming, whether day-dreaming or night-dreaming, I just love dreaming. Because it is there when you dream the impossible. And while you're dreaming the impossible, at the same time, somewhere in the world, God is turning that impossible dream to possible! Soon you'll realise that possible just arrive at your doorstep. God is way greater than what you think He is. He could use a somebody, turn him/her into a nobody and use him/her to show how great God can use a nobody to be a somebody! Think about it.

Think about Joesph, the dreamer in the Bible. He was the favourite son among his brothers. He was somebody. But his brother hated him and sold him to slavery. He was nobody. But Joseph was given a gift. A gift of dreams. And with that gift, God brought him into a path which made him the most powerful man in Egypt after the Pharaoh. God was watching over Joseph and kept him safe. (Read the book of Genesis for the full story)

Sometimes when you have a dream, but things happen and your dream shattered or your gave up on it. Maybe you have people that pick on you or discourage you. Or maybe nobody not even your family or friends supported your dream. But you need to know this, God wants you to know that He is always with you. He gave you that dream. You take that dream, take a step of faith, and go with God. He will turn the impossible to be possible. No matter what you are facing, if God is with you, when you pray to Him, He will listen to your prayers.

Dare to dream and live on for a purpose. If you don't have a purpose worth dying for, you have nothing to live for. God bless.

真我

人最难做到的是个“真”字。对人真、对一件事真都未够对自己真重要。 随着年龄的成长,往往就会少了这份真。欺骗自己是局限自己,是对自己最大的折磨。但我庆幸能遇见“你”,让我找回真正的自己。

Ignite our hearts



Part 1.5: Korea, here I come!

Let’s start by a flash back. I wanted to study abroad in Korea because I wanted to participate in movie production. Well, God’s ways are not our ways. It turned out that the movie was postponed because we couldn’t get the script right. I’m sure that the movie will be produced sometime in the future, according to His timing. Anyhow, I have secured my study abroad offer and was on my way home. I got to spend quality time at home; I wanted to come home anyway.

Besides going on two family vacations, the highlight of my short stay in Malaysia was definitely Chinese New Year. I did not spend CNY in Malaysia last year. I was alone in Mountain View, CA. What was I doing there? Dog-sitting for my cousin and family because they went back to celebrate CNY in Malaysia. I was miserable! Thankfully I had my faithful companion, Junior, who kept me company. Spending CNY at home was awesome! During this period, I watched a concert production which got me thinking of my dream again. Do I think this is a coincidence? No. Like all good supporters, I youtubed the singer. It turns out that she has a new album. Not just any album, a gospel album by the name “Faith信”. Now that I think of it, God is definitely trying to tell me something. There’s a song in the album that speaks to me so much that it got stuck in my head. 上帝早已预备 or “God has already prepared” felt like a reassurance from God. Tears never fail to fill my eyes when I listen to the song. The singer, herself, went through a lot in the past few years. I am touched by her declaration of faith.

I was troubled again. Each time when I thought of my dream, I would almost always automatically start the process of talking myself out of it. Unknowingly, each time that I succeed in talking myself out of it, I am piling up frustration. I feel angry at myself for not being able to have the courage to take that step. I feel that I am complied to live by expectations that my family has for me. I am angry! I am frustrated! I feel that I am not being who I am, who I was made to be! I am bounded-not free! I know that I will someday regret that I did not take the chance. Yet, I couldn’t find it in myself to go against the tide.

Fast forward by two months, so there I was, on a plane to Korea. I boarded the plane with many unanswered questions. However, I did not leave Malaysia with a heavy spirit. I’ve been quite a traveler, but I’m ashamed to say that still feel it whenever I have to leave home. This time it was different. I feel a sense of peace. I feel refreshed. I thought that Korea would be good to take a break from all that boiled up emotions. I also felt an unexplained excitement for that which awaits me; an excitement that is now justified.

P/S I just realized that this post totally fits the theme of Jing Ling@ Angel's previous post. Is God good or what? Amen!

Our Passion, our Dream

Stop doubting, stop looking at our inabilities, stop looking at ourselves and look up to God. He is the author and perfecter of our faith. What are you daring to dream for God?

“God always rejoices when we dare to dream”
