Walking the life of Jesus

Lately Lord gives me some verses to ponder, the 1st time for Lord, the 2nd time for me to realise the purpose of me on earth. I am happy with the answer I got from Lord from the pondering. He said that even though I finished the bible, there were some areas I was not clear, so He let me ponder over them to know better. As Lord told me not to share, I shall not post them here.

I learnt something from watching Marty Coperland, John Coperland’s wife, talking about her dieting. She said she had years of bad eating habit and having problem dieting. Then with Lord leading, she tithed portion of her meal to the Lord from each time she took her meal. Over time, she realised that the portion she had is getting lesser and lesser till it was half the plate of what her husband had. Praise the Lord.

From her sharing, I realised that whatever we do that we don’t have the determination to do, we could start off with doing a little bit of it and tithe the determination to Lord. Using the sow and harvest principle, surely Lord will bless us with a bigger harvest. Just like long ago someone tried out planting corn in a small area and the harvest get bigger and bigger. I am trying this out in my life…on those areas that I am lazy to do. I am trusting Lord to bring me out of my laziness.

Long ago, I have been updating on my love making problem. I am glad to share here that Lord has healed me fully. Finally I could enjoy it, on days not horny, I could pray to Lord to give me the horniness too. This is the goodness of having Lord in my life. Praise the Lord!

In my daily decision making, as I am a pretty clueless person, usually I will consult Lord to decide for me. There was once in Muar, with my daughter’s school outing, the guide offered to help us buy the famous Muar otak. As I have no clue if I will like it, I asked Lord if I should buy. Lord told me not to buy as I won’t like it. It was days later that my sister told me that another of my sister had bought it to mum place before. Then I realised I ever tried it and disliked it. Lord knows and remembers better than me. Praise the Lord!

Recently Su asked me to go to her house; I consulted Lord if I should go. Lord told me no, I was wondering why. That night, Lord gave me some verses to ponder and so, I spend my morning pondering over it. Then I realised Lord had something for me to do, which was more important than going to Su place and have fun. Praise the Lord.

These 2 days, I had thoughts that I won’t get my BMW, I got thoughts of a lower budget car and even have thoughts about I should not have BMW yet. I thought it was voice of the Lord. However, Lord led me to listen to 07/12/2003 ‘The Power of what You Say’ just before I fallen asleep and I listen to it again when I woke up. Lord also talks to me via the daily devotion in New Creation Church.

Today verse is Psalm 89:34 ‘My covenant I will not break, nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips’. From these 2 sources, I know I should continue to confess that Lord surely will bless me, the Righteousness of God in Christ, the BMW and believe that Lord’s Promise will come to past. He will not change what He had promised. Praise the Lord for leading me back from the wondering.

Daddy God, it was a wonderful experience worshiping You in the openness of my roof top garden, looking towards the sky and knowing that You were there looking at me. Thanks for guiding my girl in her inline skating. With Your guidance, she is getting more comfortable skating. Praise You for each leading in my life and my family members life. Hallelujah!

The Word of God

Little that I know what Lord is leading me into when I post about Lord Jesus’ prayer. Upon watching KCM on these 2 weeks of ‘The Power of the Spoken Word’ and ‘The Power of the Unified Speech. Also Lord leading me and Su to listen to a few sermons all pointing to pray in the spirit, it’s all about speaking the truth and there is power in it. After watching today’s Kenneth Coperland Ministry sermon, Wow, what a glorious Truth that Lord is revealing to me.

Today while comparing notes with Su, we both realised that Lord leads us separately to listen to Pastor Prince Sermons that talk about praying in the spirit, and from Billye Brim about speaking God’s word, the truth. Lord revealed to me that daily, we have been talking about doing good and not bad in our daily communication with our family members. This way of talking is talking from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. This is the tree that Daddy God does not want us to eat its fruits.

I realised that to talk align with Lord Jesus, the Tree of Life, I have to talk in the truth. Instead of concentrating on the wrong/right way of doing things, I have to talk about what Lord Jesus had accomplished for me and point to Him in my speech; to live a life flowing in the Life of Jesus.

So far, I had believe in what Jesus has done for me but in my daily speech, I have yet to talk it out in the day in day communication with people. Billye Brim points out Lord Jesus want us to speak in Truth and in unity in His prayer for us. She said there is power in unity speech. Let’s look at Noah after the flood.

Genesis 11:1-4

‘Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. As men moved eastward, they found a plain in Sinar and settle there.

They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” …Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”’

Genesis 11:5-7

‘But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower that the men were building.

The Lord said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.

Come, let us go down and confuse their language so that they will not understand each other.’

Did you see the power in speaking 1 language? Lord said that if we speak the same language, whatsoever we plan to do will be POSSIBLE!!! Lord weakened men by confusing our language and scattered men.

Now that Lord Jesus had perfected His work on the Cross, He wants us to speak the Truth in unity so that there is power in His word and Lord Jesus will be glorified through us. We will be the sign and wonders that Lord Jesus displayed to the world. As we speak the Truth in Unity, whatever we pray or ask will sure come to past, as it is possible during Noah time.

Daddy God and Lord Jesus want His blessing to become reality in us so that the whole world can see Him through us being glorified.

Wow, what a 2 weeks powerful sermons that Lord is revealing to me and Su and you all that read my blog and KCM sites. Lord is opening His flood gate of Blessings so wide and waiting to pour into us, those of us who believe in Him and speak in Truth and pray in the Spirit. Wow, I am seeing my gifts of Righteousness of God in Christ becoming a reality are BIG Possibility now.

Daddy God, thank You for bringing me to realise that I have yet to camp in Your Tree of Life in my daily life speech. I shall align what I speak with the truth and see that the blessings of Abraham come to past for me, the seed of Abraham in Christ. Thank You, Daddy God, Lord Jesus and Holy Spirit! Hallelujah!!! Amen and Amen!

The Power of the Spoken Word

Being in Christ for these 1+ years, life generally has been good. Daddy God has been taken good care of me. He make sure that the weather is good for Jc to walk home daily, He keeps my family in love and peace, He blesses Jc with good memory and good in her school work that I am happy with her. Even without my personal allowance, Lord makes sure I have access to general expenses needs from hubby. So my life has been lifted up into the blessed peaceful life, a lot better that my previous life without Lord.

One thing that I am wondering lately was the manifestation of my career with the Lord and the car. I have yet to see much happening yet. Yes, even me also wavier at time. I wondered if something in me is not trusting Lord correctly. Today, Lord get Pastor Prince to write on the daily devotion that there is nothing wrong with God, nothing wrong with the Word and nothing wrong with me. Praise the Lord.

Yesterday, Lord also get Pastor Prince to talk about someone in church is still having Sin consciousness. He said that if we expect and think that something will happen to us or something had happen to us due to something we did wrongly, and feeling guilty over it, the thing that we speak about ourselves will happen.

We are to be conscious about Lord Jesus had done a perfected Work on the Cross 2000 years ago. His Work was so perfect that Daddy God saw that all our sins were judged on Lord Jesus. As such, Daddy God is no more look at our wrong doing; He looks at the perfect Work of Lord Jesus and sees us as having the Righteousness of God in Christ. Praise the Lord!

Last night, Lord led me to KCM site to check out what they have been preaching lately. I saw KCM has invited Billye Brim to talk about the Power of the Spoken Word, since 12th May 2008. I have watched 4 sermons from last week sermons and they are good. Billye Brim and Gloria Copeland talks about what we speak daily will arrange things in our lives, be it about blessings or cursing that we experienced.

I am glad that Lord led me there. I felt so blessed to speak in agreement with God’s Words to see that my career in Him will come to past. Last night I proclaimed about it through the perfect work of Jesus on the Cross. Lord led me to pray over it in the spirit. Praise the Lord!!!

Billye Brim shows that David has spoken the words of faith when he went for Goliath. Listen to what David said:

1 Samuel 17:36 – 37 ‘Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God. The Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the lion will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine’

1 Samuel 17:45 – 46 ‘David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the Lord will hand you over to me, and I’ll strike you down and cut off your head.

Today I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel.

David not only speak words of faith, trusting that Lord Jesus will deliver him, he even prophesied that the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. His word has come to past. From small to big, we all know about Jesus. Praise the Lord!

Billye Brim shows that Psalm 34:12-13 ‘Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days, keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies (word from the pit of hell).

She also shows that Daddy God had said blessed words to Adam about blessing him with all the fruits in the Garden of Eden and told him not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Devil came in the form of a snake and spoke words of doubts to Eve and Adam. Eve agreed and spoke the word of evil and Adam agreed in silence, they changed their environment, from God blessings to cursing. What a powerful revelation of the spoken word!

Billye Grim was sharing about the Hebrew word of word (dvar) means word, matter or things and the root word of dvar means to arrange, to speak. We can speak words of Christ to change the situation we faced. That’s why Lord Jesus teaching us in Mark 11:23 ‘I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, “Go, throw yourself into the sea,” and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.’ As you can see, we have to say and don’t doubt what we say, it will come to past.

Why would Lord Jesus say not to doubt? Most times when we face challenges, we should not look at the situation. We should speak the word of Christ and look to Lord and believe that He had done a perfect work on the Cross and surely whatever you face will not last. Let Lord Jesus brings His words into reality for you. It happens to Billye Brim and Gloria & Kenneth Copeland when they align themselves with God’s Words. I am going to do likewise too.

Praise the Lord for leading me to know how I should see my blessing come to past in Jesus. Hallelujah!

The Promise

After putting the bible aside for sometime, I pick it up again yesterday. As I continued reading the book of John, I get more revelation of me in Christ. Here is part of the prayer of Jesus for us, His disciples and His believers.

John 17:9 ‘I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours.’

John 17:11 ‘Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name – the name you gave me – so that they may be one as we are one.

John 17:14-19

‘I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world.’

My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one

‘They are not of the world, even as I am not of it.’

Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.’

‘As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world.’

‘For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.’

John 17:20 – 26

‘My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.’

‘May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.’

“I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me.’

‘May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.’

‘Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.’

Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.’

After reading this prayer, I was feeling so honored that Lord Jesus prayed for me, for Daddy God to protect me from the evil one. From the prayer, I realised that each of us that have accepted Christ, is no more in this world. We are like Lord Jesus when He was on earth. Lord has sent us into the world and we are made Holy by Him. Praise the Lord!!! Lord, thank You for the glory that You have given me.

Lord wanted us to be in complete unity in Him so that the world will know that Father sent Lord Jesus and the world is to know that Daddy God has loved us as much as He loved Jesus.

Lord even prayed for us to be with Him in where He is and see His glory. Daddy God loved Jesus before the creation of the world. Wow!

I don’t know how you feel from reading this prayer. For me, I feel so loved by Lord Jesus and Daddy God. He is so good to take us out of darkness and into His light, the moment we accepted Him.

We are sent by Lord Jesus into this world. There is a shift of position for us, from in the darkness, to be sent by Him into it. Though for us, we don’t feel any different when we accepted Christ, but in actual fact, we are no more the same person. How many of us realise this?

I have heard many times from Pastor Prince that when the soldiers went to capture Lord Jesus, the moment Lord said, “I am” the soldiers fell. In my 1st round of reading the bible, I did not register reading it. Today, upon reading again, I found the verse in John 18:6 ‘When Jesus said, “I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground.’

Peter struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. I am amazed by what Jesus said! John 18:11 ‘Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”’ If Lord Jesus let Peter fight, Daddy God’s will to get Lord Jesus to take our sin will not happen. As said by Lord, “not drink the cup (our sins) the Father has given me?”. Lord loved us so much that He did not want Peter to foil the plan. He willingly went for the crucifixion so that we need not be curse by old age, sickness and death.

Praise the Lord and Daddy God for loving us and me so much!!! Daddy God, Lord Jesus, I love You so much because You love me first. Thank You for forgiving me all my sins, past, present and future. Thank You for imputing Daddy God’s Righteousness to me. Thank You, Lord Jesus. In Jesus Name, Amen!!!

The Grace of God II

Recently, on my trip to Muar with my girl, I was to look after my girl and her classmate, J. There was something that bothered me about this trip. There were 2 occasions, where the chance of spending money, J did not bring her wallet with her. I had to pay for her. After that I told J to return me a discounted amount. I was tight on my money as I didn’t bring much and had planned to buy the chewing gum that hubby told me would cost much.

I did not get the chance to buy the chewing gum, at the same time; I was feeling guilty of why I ask from J that small amount. As if I am so stingy.

On Sunday, Lord told me to tithe my $5 to Him. Then He gave me Grace to bless Su’s family with the remainder $50 that was in my wallet. We had a special prawn mee from East Coast Road. Even though I was blessing Lord and Su’s family, that guilt remained.

Lord leaded me to listen to 01/08/2003 “In Christ, All of God’s Promises are Yes and Amen!”. I was so joyful and happy after listening to this sermon. However, Pastor Prince referred to something in the previous week sermon that made me curious. So I seek the sermon, 24/07/2003 “Keys to Anointing – Living in the Grace and Serving with Faithfulness”

As I listened closely to this sermon, Pastor Prince talked about faithfulness in the Lord and Lord will give us the Gift of the Grace, Charismata, to enable us to do create wealth. Pastor Prince also talked about tithing. He said those who cannot be trusted to small thing (tithing), Lord cannot trust them with big things (His blessing) too. I was thinking if I had lack in tithing to the Lord. Yes, even though I had tithed 50% of my personal saving, I am feeling that it is not enough. I am wondering if I should tithe more of it.

On track 5 of the 2nd disk of this sermon, Lord came in and talked as 1st Person in Pastor Prince. I know it was Lord talking as He ever talked through me as 1st Person too. I was so captivated by it. Previously I had listened to this sermon before, but the part on Lord going to create millionaires on someone presented in that Bible Study, did not touched me as much as this morning.

Lord led me to recall that I had not been getting any allowance and I have tithed a lot to Him. He even told me that He will make me a millionaire. My heart response in crying when I heard from Pastor Prince about he sensed in his spirit that the person that Lord is going to bless into millionaire was currently in financial difficulties.

With this sermon, my guilt left me and I am finally at peace. Yesterday as I brought my girl to the art class where J also attended, I saw that J turned her head away from me upon seeing me. I concluded that she was not happy with me during the trip to Muar.

However, when I went to her house to pick JC, her mum who had not been talking to me for some weeks, opened the door with a wide smile on her face. She could sometime be friendly and sometime be so cold and quiet. She let me realised on what Lord told me, don’t trust in man when they are good to me. For the same group who welcomed Jesus back to Jerusalem, were also the same group who sent Him to be crucified. I trusted in God’s favour on my way to her house to pick Jc. Praise the Lord for always faithful and always around for me.

Daddy God, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Thank YOU!!!! Hallelujah!!!

My Thoughts

Since my dad’s death, Lord Jesus has not been calling me for any healing job. When I check with Him, He always said that He is giving me rest.

Last Friday, WK’s uncle had breathing difficulties and was hospitalized. I thought of going to pray for him, but Lord did not give me the desire to go. I asked Su to check with Him, He told me not to worry.

Today, I checked with Lord why I need the rest. Lord told me that my father’s death affected me more than I noticed. Then I realised I have lost my trust in the Lord on His willingness to heal.

This is what happened to me, as I thought about my dad’s death, I wondered if he did not accept Christ, would it be a better choice for Lord to heal him and show him His glory. I wonder if leading dad to accept Christ was a mistake. In a way, I am regretting over not able to heal dad.

Last night, Lord came to anoint my hands. I could feel Him shifting something around my wrists area. After that, He gave me the impression to call WK’s cousin, to share with her about getting her dad to worship Lord for his healing. Her dad, WK’s uncle, his lungs still has the cancer cells. Lately he is suffering some infection on the lungs. When I called WK to inform her to remind her cousin, WK remarked that I still care for her uncle.

This remark had taken me aback. I guess, she might be thinking that my refusal to pray for her uncle showed that I didn’t care. Well, I am just obeying Lord.

Anyway, I was surprised that her uncle’s cancer cells are still around, just like my dad’s brain tumor, instead of healed, it got worst, bleeding tumor.

Today, Lord let me know that in each healing prayer, the faith of the one praying and the faith of the one receiving the prayer, affects the healing result. Lord let me to recall Curry Blake shared about the faith needed in healing. It was then I realised I had doubted Lord in His willingness to heal.

Lord revealed to me that for each time I prayed for my dad, he did not look onto Lord Jesus for the healing. As such, the prayer for healing did not manifest in him. Lord shared that it was this reason that He wanted dad to sing worship song to raise his faith in the Lord. Then I recalled that Lord ever told me that in a congregation, worship songs are necessary to bring believers of different faith level up their faith in the Lord so that they could receive their healing/blessing.

Lord shared that He is asking WK’s uncle to sing worship songs for the same reason. WK’s uncle accepted Christ when he was a young boy. He had rarely been to church all these years; as such he has no knowledge of Lord Jesus’ Grace and Truth. In order to heal him, he need to rise his faith to look onto Lord Jesus as Lord’s blessing only come through when one is in love, joy and peace in the Holy Spirit. I know that when my faith is rise through worshiping Lord, adversary could not disturb, as such receiving blessing is easy.

Today I repent and trusted that Lord Jesus surely willing to heal anyone that turn to Him and trusted Him for deliverance. Praise the Lord for leading me back. Lord is so good to let me go through the process. When I started querying Him, then He revealed to me what I have lacked to do His job.

I will trust in the Lord that He will surely and willingly heal those who turn to Him. Daddy God, thank You for helping me to trust You again. Thank You for letting me realise that I had drift off without noticing it. Praise Your Almighty Name, Lord Jesus! Amen!

Lord's Leading and Protection

Last Sunday, Lord gave me a desire to eat the dim sum at Suntec Convention. Initially Su told me that we would be going to Rock for the sermon. As Rock auditorium is at Tower 4, I thought I would go to the food court for lunch.

Somehow, Lord led Su to change the location to Gallery West in Suntec Convention. This desire on eating dim sum stayed. As I reached Suntec, I had this thought to take dim sum for lunch. After buying the food, I went to search for a vacant seat. There were 2 tables of 4 with 2 persons sitting on the outer side. I approached the 2nd table, it was very narrow to go to the vacant seat, as the 1st table lady was giving me way to enter, the 1st table lady invited me to join their table.

Haha..Lord led me to meet the right person that He wanted me to share about Him. The first table was occupied by a mother and daughter. As the daughter went to buy food, Lord in me led me to talk to the mum. Praise the Lord, they are from New Creation Church too. This mum was attending the Hokkien service. She has yet to go for water baptize. Lord wanted to let her know that without water baptize, she could go to heaven too. Lord let me shared about dad’s blessing. Praise the Lord for this divine appointment. :D

Yesterday was a long day trip accompanying Jc on her school trip to Muar. We visited some small scale plantations. At the rubber plantation, after we observed the demonstration of rubber tapping, there was a scorpion that climbed up the tree right in front of Jc and her classmate. The distance of them and the scorpion was around 20cm apart. Praise the Lord, I did not know how the scorpion climbed up from where Jc and her classmate were standing, with God’s blessing and protection, it did not harm both of them. It climbed up the tree in steady speed. We were so captivated by it to take a photo of it. When we decided to take, the scorpion had climbed too high up.

With Lord’s protection, we had a safe and good trip to Muar. Praise the Lord for His Protection! Thank You, Daddy God! Amen.

Blessings

I had been distracted for these 2 weeks and in tiredness, days just passed before I realised, one week by week is gone. Amidst this distraction, I would like to talk on Lord’s Greatness.

Some weeks ago, I was wondering where I could get some plates that were deep so that can use for some soupy food. The few times I went shopping, most of the plates sold were pretty flat. I don’t know how long have I been pondering. One day, when I was at mum’s home, she offered to give me some of her collection of plates. Praise the Lord, I need not buy any plates as mum had give me more than enough. :D

Jc was out growing her dress fast, it’s time to buy new one for her. As I kept that in the back of my mind, but have yet to do any shopping. Jc’s godmother used to buy her dresses every Christmas time, when she visited me during my dad’s wake, she bought some dresses for Jc again. Praise the Lord, I need not shop for her. :D

Daily, as Jc walk home from school, the 10-15mins journey by the side of the road is pretty hot as the trees along the road is still very young. I had wanted to buy a hat for her. But this girly daughter did not want any cap. As I source around, Su offered to buy one, Jc is her princess. Praise the Lord, Lord has satisfied my need once again.

It was after the 3rd blessings that I realised Lord has delivered what He promised to me. Early last year, He told me that He will satisfy all my needs. These are the 3 material blessings that I realised they are from Lord. Hallelujah!

Other blessings like Lord’s healing power and my driving license both come to past when I did not bother about it. I just trust that Lord will surely bless me and my job is to continue sit on His feet and feed on His Words.

During these 2 weeks of tiredness, I have not been consistence in my daily prayer and praying in the spirit. Lord is being faithful as always. Whenever I need Him and called for His help, He surely came and rescued me. Praise the Almighty Lord Jesus!

Lord also has blessed Jc with good memory. Jc used to need 3-4 days to revise her spellings. Nowadays, around 2-3 times of testing her in a day will do. Praise the Lord that now He is the one teaching her. Hallelujah! Even her Chinese enrichment class teacher also commented that Jc has good memory. I know it’s all blessings from the Lord. :D

Daddy God, thank You for being around and looking after me. :D I pray in Jesus Name, Amen!

PS: Brothers/Sisters-in-Christ, if you did send a comment to me, from 2/5 – 5/5, I have accidentally deleted all 3 comments even though my intention is to delete one. Rest assured that I have read them and appreciate very much for your comments. May the Lord Greatly Bless You! Amen!

Enjoying the Bible

After a few days of not touching the bible, I picked it up to continue reading The book of John again. Nowadays reading the word of Christ with Lord reading for me is real great. :D We both worked together. My eyes focused on the words and He, the Almighty One, read to me. Oh Lord, thank You for letting me knows the emotion that You were going through during that time, 2000 years ago. I love it so much, knowing You in person and getting to know You better.

Months ago, I heard that when 2 or more gather to pray, the prayer is more powerful. At that time, I was talking to Su, being home alone; there was not anyone else except Holy Spirit with me. So I was telling Su that well, with HS and me, there were 2 of us. So, the prayer should be more powerful. Hehe..my reasoning.

A few evening ago, I was reading John and I saw this: John 8:17 ‘In your own Law it is written that the testimony of 2 men is valid. I am (Lord Jesus) one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.’ When I read this, I was think, hey, I talked the same way as Lord! Haha…

I was continued reading John that I came to the part Lord Jesus going to be betrayed soon. John 13:3-5 ‘Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothes, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.’ I don’t know about you, but if it’s me under this situation, I will be panicky or worry, I guess. But Lord Jesus is so calm, peaceful and even caring, cleaning the feet of his disciples.

I was reading another Christian site and like this quote by Watchman Nee very much:

“Because the Lord Jesus died on the Cross,
I have received forgiveness of sins;

because the Lord Jesus rose from the dead,
I have received new life;

because the Lord Jesus has been exalted to the right hand of the Father,
I have received the outpoured Spirit.

All is because of Him; nothing is because of me.”

What a blessed truth that we have! Amen!
