SHEism (Safe Healthy Empowered)

1) The old “she” ways of thinking & living haven’t worked. Only God can make us truly safe, healthy and empowered. Only God can make us SHE.
2) A truly protected SHE finds her protection in God & through His arms of family and community, and the wisdom He provides.
3) A truly intimate SHE is a woman who finds intimacy with God, and then allows Him to guide he toward finding safe intimacy with others.
4) A truly beautiful SHE is a woman who finds intimacy with God, and then allows Him to guide her toward finding safe intimacy with others.
5) A truly beautiful SHE is a woman who honors God with her holistic- inward & outward- beauty.
6) A truly pure SHE keeps her heart clean before God & enjoys the health of a pure mind & body.
7) The truly free SHE has submitted to the power of God to free her from all bondage.
8) The truly mentored SHE is a woman who understands & uses the powerful tool of mentoring to enrich both her own life and the life of others as well.
9) The truly boundaried SHE is a woman who asks herself, is it wise? And becomes empowered by building and maintaining strong biblical life fences.
10) The truly purposeful SHE understands her unique calling and uses her abilities and gifts effectively for the glory of God.
11) SHE is every woman who seeks more from God and submits her life to His transforming work and a lifetime of being reborn into God’s original design.


RUN from temptation

Recognize the temptation for what it is
Understand Satan’s desire to destroy you – run from tempting situations.
Never return to that situation or mind game- rely on God’s power through prayer to help you do this.

Proverbs 31:30
“Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised”

May this post be a blessing to sisters who read this. Be encouraged to be a person God want us to be.

Love Has a Price Tag- Elisabeth Elliot

Just finish reading Elisabeth Elliot.

Felt very encouraged to walk and continue the task as a believer. I found so much joy in her when she shares about prayer and also about her daugther. I know that if each and everyone in life continue to lean unto our Creator God everything will be fall into place.

Fall into place doesn't mean that life will be a bed of roses. We sure will still have a life that is challenging. Through life have a lot of challenges and test, it'll help us to have a better testimony if we continue to presevere =0).

learning about prayer as a tool of communication to God and a main duty to do, I realised so many times in my life when I seek God through prayer, God seems to just bless the work or bless things that i lift them up to Him. Personal life or work life everything seems more comforting than before. Even when have a little problems faced at work. There is an omnipresent God and provides His support each day. I'm thankful for the encouragement each time. Blessings after blessings He had shown each day. I cant wait to be with the Father one day. I cant wait to be forever with Him. =)

May you have the joy in Him as well.

To be reminded abt grandad.

Yesteday morning, 630am. I could hear granma in her normal urgency..woke me and my younger bro up, a rountine each year to pay a visit to the graveyard.It was like any other once a year family gathering near grandad grave. This time without youngest granuncle (grandad's youngest brother), eldest sister and youngest sister.

Mum and I as usual needed to clear up the memorial place of my grandad by just using green sponge
with a little soap powder to clear up the dirt on the grave area. While dad and samuel "cangkul" / hoe and use a "parang" to clear the bushes. I was afraid that it might hurt Samuel and kept asking him to be careful and not to play around with the "parang". Scarey i would say. Well Samuel is just 13 years old. But i could see the little boy growing up to be bolder and more confident each day. i hope that one day he'll have the confindence that comes from God. I'm still praying for that fact. For now, i thank God that he grew up to be a healthy kid. Without sickness and will a strong will power. Just hope that bad influence will not allow him to draw away from God.

Granma is still very particular in paying respect to the dead due to her past tradition, I remember her asking dad to pray for grandad. It is not easy for her. Grandad passed away when dad is a near young adult.

Eldest sis wasnt around this time because she went to Spore for holidays.. hope that it is a good trip for her there and good time of relax from her work... it is good to take a break from stress once awhile. As for Desiree, she'll not be able to come home so often because she is currently working until Saturdays. Will miss her back home. I know again that God will keep her safe and keep her occupied and help her grow bolder each day and be a more confident women of God.

Someone love and care that i did not realise most of the time...

I remember the times when i was sick on the bed due to personal issues that i faced. Mum tried a best to take care of my daily food and necessities. While i just take her for granted. Maybe i was really brought up being closer to my dad, yet mum is still mum, no matter how unthoughtful i was, she still show her love.

Recently I could feel the closeness i have being with her. Especially when my wisdom tooth area is aching. She tried her best to help me make lunch and have proper dinner, without me asking. i felt my heart appreciating the fact. Mum was all the time taking care of me throughout my 23 plus years. just that i dint realize it.

I never have a chance to stop my busy days and reflect what God has given to me, a mum that really cares. I remember those times where i felt that mom doesnt really care about me and also mum had favouritsm with me other siblings. but then over the current years, certainly have proved me wrong.

Now i thank God for every moment i had with being my mum. Trying to help her do some daily chores to lightened her burdened after working hours. As she also work to support our finance together with dad. There are so many things that she have done for the family and yet sometimes i forget that she was all the time in my daily life picture.

reflecting back, i think i've wronged mum so much during my early years of teenage that is growing up to be young adults. She just loves me. Now i know, and i know it is not too late to show her my appreciation =). Thank God for her.

the wisdom tooth, gum ache.

It has been a long time since i get a pain on my tooth. Initially I thought that I've extract all my wisdom tooth two years ago. i was so wrong. The top jaw still has 2 more wisdom tooth that is giving problems to my teeth and gum when i chew on hard things. Giving me uneasiness. Causing pain on the gum and effecting other areas.

But i thank God that i do not need to suffer the pain of going through sugery as my wisdom teeth grew healthyly upward =) and it not grown into the gums. =) i really thank God about that. So this few days I haven't been eating well. Infact this morning I was just eating a light meal of "mee sua" i asked the stall aunty to cut into pieces for me to chew on it easily. I need rice and mee for energy... not use to just eating bread and drinking milk whole day long.

Still i'm thankful for concern from parents =D and friends. Having a wisdom tooth without care or concern seriously make someone like me even moodier =.=" if you know what i meant. But i'm happy that although there is a pain on the whole area, I'm glad that I can still feel God's presence and peace in everything i do. Maybe through prayers every night and day, did a lot in strengthening me and given encouragement to me. Thanking God for everything each day.

I've found a friend, O such a friend

I've found a Friend, oh, such a Friend!
He loved me ere I knew Him;
He drew me with the cords of love,
And thus He bound me to Him.
And round my heart still closely twine
Those ties which naught can sever,
For I am His, and He is mine,
Forever and forever.

I've found a Friend, oh, such a Friend!
He bled, He died to save me;
And not alone the gift of life,
But His own self He gave me.
Naught that I have my own I call,
I hold it for the Giver;
My heart, my strength, my life, my all,
Are His, and His forever.

I've found a Friend, oh, such a Friend!
So kind, and true, and tender,
So wise a Counsellor and Guide,
So mighty a Defender!
From Him who loves me now so well,
What power my soul can sever?
Shall life or death, or earth or hell?
No? I am His forever.

such comforting hymn that i would love to share with my friends =) especially to a friend that is far away from the Lord. Hope it brings comfort to you when you feel lonely.

Footprints on the Sand

Footprints in the Sand


One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints,
other times there were one set of footprints.

This bothered me because I noticed
that during the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering from
anguish, sorrow or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.

So I said to the Lord,
"You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you,
you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during
the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one
set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most,
you have not been there for me?"

The Lord replied,
"The times when you have
seen only one set of footprints in the sand,
is when I carried you."
Mary Stevenson

I am Thine O Lord

I am Thine, O Lord(Draw Me Nearer)
Words by Fanny Crosby
Music by W. How­ard Doane
http://my.homewithgod.com/heavenlymidis2/thine.html

Refrain
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice,
And it told Thy love to me;
But I long to rise in the arms of faith
And be closer drawn to Thee.

Refrain
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord,
By the power of grace divine;
Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope,
And my will be lost in Thine.

Refrain
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

O the pure delight of a single hour
That before Thy throne I spend,
When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God
I commune as friend with friend!

Refrain
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

There are depths of love that I cannot know
Till I cross the narrow sea;
There are heights of joy that I may not reach
Till I rest in peace with Thee.

Refrain
Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To the cross where Thou hast died.
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord,
To Thy precious, bleeding side.

may you oh Lord help me to focus and be closer to you as an individual. =)
Thank You for everything.

Songs that encouraged me =D




Only a Boy Named David


Only a boy named David
Only a little sling

Only a boy named David

But he could pray and sing


Only a boy named David

Only a rippling brook

Only a boy named David

But five little stones he took.


And one little stone went in the sling

And the sling went round and round

And one little stone went in the sling

And the sling went round and round

And round and round

And round and round

And round and round and round


And one little prayer went up to God

And the giant came tumbling down.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Be Thou my Vision,

O Lord of my heart;

Naught be all else to me,

save that Thou art.

Thou my best Thought,

by day or by night,

Waking or sleeping,

Thy presence my light.


Be Thou my Wisdom,

and Thou my true Word;

I ever with Thee

and Thou with me, Lord;

Thou my great Father,

I Thy true son;

Thou in me dwelling,

and I with Thee one.


Be Thou my battle Shield,

Sword for the fight;

Be Thou my Dignity,

Thou my Delight;

Thou my soul’s Shelter,

Thou my high Tower:

Raise Thou me heavenward,

O Power of my power.


Riches I heed not,

nor man’s empty praise,

Thou mine Inheritance,

now and always:

Thou and Thou only,

first in my heart,

High King of Heaven,

my Treasure Thou art.


High King of Heaven,

my victory won,

May I reach Heaven’s joys,

O bright Heaven’s Sun!

Heart of my own heart,

whatever befall,

Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Jesus our Savior


There is a fountain filled with blood



There is a fountain filled with blood

drawn from Emmanuel’s veins;

And sinners plunged beneath that flood

lose all their guilty stains.

Lose all their guilty stains,

lose all their guilty stains;

And sinners plunged beneath that flood

lose all their guilty stains.


The dying thief rejoiced to see

that fountain in his day;

And there have I, though vile as he,

washed all my sins away.

Washed all my sins away,

washed all my sins away;

And there have I, though vile as he,

washed all my sins away.


Dear dying Lamb,

Thy precious blood shall never lose its power

Till all the ransomed church of God

be saved, to sin no more.

Be saved, to sin no more,

be saved, to sin no more;

Till all the ransomed church of God

be saved, to sin no more.


E’er since, by faith, I saw the stream

Thy flowing wounds supply,

Redeeming love has been my theme

and shall forever be.

And shall forever be,

and shall forever be;

Redeeming love has been my theme,

and shall forever be.


Then in a nobler, sweeter song,

I’ll sing Thy power to save,

When this poor lisping, stammering tongue

lies silent in the grave.

Lies silent in the grave,

lies silent in the grave;

When this poor lisping, stammering tongue

lies silent in the grave.


Lord, I believe Thou hast prepared,

unworthy though I be,

For me a blood bought free reward,

a golden harp for me!

’Tis strung and tuned for endless years,

and formed by power divine,

To sound in God the Father’s ears

no other name but Thine.

A little prayer-to be SHE ( Safe Healthy Empowered)

Dear God,

I know too well to be unsafe, unhealthy, unempowered "she" that I don't want to be anymore. Lord, you have made me aware that there is more to womanhood than what I've seen and experienced. Free me from the burden of my past failures. I long to know completely how much You love me. I want to soak up Your love, finding my security and wholeness in You. Change me, Lord; tear away the old habits. Let the faulty mind-sets melt and be replaced by the truth. Break the power satan's lies have had over me. Help me to grow from the she to the SHE as I trust You to transform my life.. I love you, Lord. Do what you want in my heart and in my mind. In Jesus name, Amen.

Bz but not Lz week =P

i just came back from penang. First time being a team supervisor was indeed a blessing. I do not know why the lord specially plan it that way for me. I currently felt the love and care from God. Maybe i've not been attentive about His great love for me until when lately I had persistent prayer with my current prayer partner. (you know who you are, I miss you)

My heart was very glad to see how prayer does change things. In team BLICK, i realize how important is it to trust God and to pray and acknowledge God in the picture). My team and I could really see the hand of God working in each mission task, even my prayer partner knows about the importance of prayer. Although there were some external problems, we could see everything fall into place because God was there with us. I thank God ...that through this mission week i could be able to see God working...it was indeed a great experience that i have never encounter so much of His blessings and power working so greatly. It certainly had much impacted me this whole month by just praying and trusting God. (addition to it, reading His word).

Last week was a busy week. Penang trip, meeting up with friends in KL (Suan, Norman, Des & Cla gathered together for a meal). I thank God for that. Saturday seems like a reunion for our own family back home with our special friends. =P. Parents look very happy and proud....haha..list goes on. And i thank God for that.

Seems that this would sum up the whole Bz but not Lz week of my life. Thanking God for His goodness. Hope that I'll continue to love Him more.
