This is our great God

I would like to apologize to all my readers that I've not been updating my blog. Anyway I would like to Thank God for sending different people and different prayers in my life that touches my life and help me to continue to move on in his ministry that I'm in. Specially those youth who care and love me, for who I am and what I have in my life. And not to forget those who already left for further studies and supervisors and pastors and leaders of my church. Thanks you and I appreciated it.

Recently my life have been changed after half a year struggling. Although most of our life we are covered by lots of dark smoke which cause us blind, disappointed, being judge, being rejected, unable to trust, unable to love, hurts, insecurity about our future,uncertainty about our love relationship.

Well, I would like to share my testimony that I've been through recently. This is how I felt about what I've mention above. My life is in chaos, I have not consistently building a good relationship with God. What a shameful answer for those who would like to question my daily devotion as an example of a supervisor, leader and church staff.

I've been continue striking and fall and run away and heart harden from this relationship with God. Even though my body is in the church mostly everyday but my heart is far away from God. What is the meaning of continue to stay as a church worker? What I'm doing here? Why I want to trouble my life.

One day a friend also a leader of mine, pass me a copied of book entitled "Power of Praise" this is how I started seeing God change the way I think after reading it and allow me to be test and continue to move me forward naturally. God help me to overcome this struggle through this book, through continue helping people, continue going to young adult cell group and continue to serve, continue to build relationship with others and being prayed and minister by intercessors during last Saturday night Service. God used me and spoke to me. I want to Praise Him and He is indeed Good to me and every human being.

I'm thinking We as a supervisor, leader, church worker and missionary, how much effort we have place upon those who we need to nurture, we need to follow up, and love. How many ways we've tried a to help them or we've cried over night and day when we would not know what to do, so that they can experience our Great God. I've try many ways to find answer and to asking question and counseling and meet people for just to have close relationship with my God. But being a christian for 16 years. I still don know how to solve this problem which hidden me for so long. And I believe is not just my problem, in fact most of the christian face this situation as well.

Finally I've found the answer for myself, the reason why I've failed. It's because I do not know who my God is. When bad things happen what is my first respond? I will use my own understanding to deal with the situation, or I will panic and just ask God why this happen, or I will just ask people around me to solve the problem or share with Friends but not Praising God and Praying to Him and I might not know Who my God is. Just like you know Michael Jackson but you don't really know him personally.

I'm a lazy and proud christian, not that I've show my laziness in work or not being responsible or tying to show off my stuff or being proud when I've success. But in fact this apply to my trust and honor and allow God to intervene in my life.

So from this book it filled with testimony, people that praised God finds healing and ministered and the reason why we should praise God. After I've read this Book, I apply it in my life. When bad things happen, such as having judgmental or conflict with my college, which is a negative ways of seeing this person. I started to praise God for placing this person in my life, I thank God for this person's good personalities, and I give thanks for placing this person to bless others and ask God to continue to bless this person more and ask God to use this person mightily.

Of course God will look into our heart and see is this what you really mean? Well this is what I've been reflect the child's faith in the Bible. Children are pure and narrow minded. So I've learned to be a child, I don think about the person's weakness or what the person have done or the history or whatsoever that stop me praise God. And I just praise God sincerely for the good side of this person and I really mean what I've prayed. Then what happen is the next day, this person suddenly share that their problem have been solved and they're so blessed to see what God has done in their life. And I'm happy because of their Joy. Even though I didnt specify or mention what are the problems I want God to change in this person's life. But God already know how to move according to His own ways. So the more I praise God for the person with prayers. The more I know God. The more I recognize God's character. Not just knowing God from the bible but I've experience His Greatness and Lordship.

Well I guess, This is what I wanted to share. Life is a choice. I've make a choice to allow God to clean my mess and also remind myself to walk with God. Not faster than Him or slower than Him but just walk beside Him and see what is my God trying to do. And recently I see God in me and He is here with me. Praise God and Glory to God.

So I want to encourage brother and sister in Christ. Try and change our attitude towards our relationship with God. and make sure we have the consistency of praising Him listen to worship songs that encourage use to draw near to God and watch testimony and others christian materials that you are comfortable with. Surely we able to see our life changed.

Here is a good song plus preaching from Pastor Jaeson Ma. The album "LOVE" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73kZ6wBoqTk I hope this song may stir your hearts to God's love.

God Bless.

Cult Religion

Just wanted to share what I've read through in Wikipedia throughout some research of Cult churches.

Providence is a new religious movement founded by convicted rapist Jung Myung Seok around 1980. It is widely referred to by the media as a cult, and most of its publicity comes from reports related to its founder's sexual abuses against its female followers.

Other names for the religion include Jesus Morning Star (JMS)(most known name in South Korea), Christian Gospel Mission (CGM, official name in South Korea), Setsuri(means 'providence' in Japanese), International Christian Association (ICA), Morning Star Church, The Bright Moon Church, Ae-chun Church, Young-dong Church, Nak-seong-dae Church, and Seoul Church.

Providence members also run various Providence secular organisations for recruitment purposes.

Jung Myung Seok believes he has come to finish the incomplete message and mission of Jesus Christ, asserting that he is the Messiah and has the responsibility to save all mankind. He claims that the Christian doctrine of resurrection is false but that people can be saved through Jung Myung Seok.

Critics say Jung Myung Seok's teachings pretty clearly derived from the Unification church. The main differences is that:

1. it identifies Jung Myung Seok as the Messiah (rather than Sun Myung Moon)
   
2. it teaches that original sin, originating in Eve's intercourse with Satan, can be defeated by intercourse with the Savior (Jung Myung Seok)

Marriages must be approved by Jung, and both partners must have been in Providence for at least 3 years, read the Bible 3 times, and recruited 3 members according to former members.


Jung Myung-Seok (born 17 Feb 1945) is a South Korean self-proclaimed messiah and leader of a religious group called Providence. He is also known by the names of Joshua Jung, Joshua Lee Jung, Joshua Lee, and JMS.

Jung originally fled Korea in 1999 after rape accusations surfaced and was officially charged in 2001. After nearly 9 years on the run. Jung was finally captured by Chinese police in May 2007. Besides rape, Jung has also been charged of fraud, sexual abuse, and embezzlement.

In January 2008, the Supreme Court of South Korea found that Jung forced two female followers to have sex with him as part of a religious purification ritual. In August 2008, Jung was convicted of raping five of his followers and sentenced to six years imprisonment. In April 2009, the Supreme court of South Korea sentenced him of a 10 years imprisonment.

Being who we are – the Origin of God’s Creation

These few months, I’ve caught into emotional wilderness. I’m so disappointed with the people in my ministry. I found myself close up and argue the point of view that I’ve seen. Facing those people with judgmental spirit, teach them they never learn and even think they know a lot, like to make conclusion about my personality, talk those words that are hurtful, always convince me to walk with them. Those words are no encouraging and make me felt unacceptable.

I felt so frustrated, unloved, no passion, no motivation. I try to run away and I plan to leave but then another new responsibility came. Asking myself when I should leave and asking myself what have I contributed through out the years, asking questions but seems no answer and no good feedback from myself. I have done so much but seem all in vain. What a sad experience. In my life filled with all those negative thoughts, emotion sadness and fighting with God. I said to myself that I will not obey Him and I will try my best not to listen to Him. I want to complaints, I want to fight, I want to leave and I don’t like myself, reject myself, don bother about myself and just let it be, who will cares? Who will accept me?

I feel so shameful about myself after I step back and look at those people who hurt me recently. I just can’t believe my eyes as I evaluated them which some of their deeds is like me!! Very hard to communicate, and even don feel like building relationship with them. I felt so shameful to talk about my past. Past time I didn’t see it, but now God open my eyes to face my cruel inner man.

As I was in the adult cell group just now, we need to answer the question that asking me to share my joy of following Jesus. I remain with a frustration feeling and felt reluctant to share. Then I’ve been call to share, and finally I answered. I remember when I’m 12 years old, I always rely on Jesus, and through the sensitivity I’ve received from God, I’ll use it to pray and to share the Gospel to others, and seeing their respond, I can see their heart filled with happiness and felt blessed and sometimes healing happen. That’s where my joy is.

As I went back, and I look at myself now, I’ve lost my first love to Him and I’ve lost my Joy, lost my trust towards Him, lost my confidence in Him and I seems so empty. The question “Joy” kept ringing in my mind. I keep asking the Lord what is happening to me.

Then an answer came asking me, why can’t you just be who you are? The old you, who are innocent, simple and pure, humble, willing to learn and fully trust and rely on Jesus. And I ask what do this mean? The answer is don’t try to be others or admire being others, but be yourself. The origin personality of me that God purposely created. Accept who I am. For the origin that God has given me will lead me to His purpose about whom I am in the future and why God created me like that. I think I’ve started to move towards a bright side. The origin in me..

It's cool to know this

If the emotional desire for another man is primarily a symptom of the failure to develop a strong masculine identity, then a man's unconscious desire to assume manhood of another male may be more important than the sexual act. The goal of therapy in such cases is to help the client understand the various causes of his feelings and to strengthen his masculine identity. :)
