Broken Spirit before Him

Been quite a long time since I last bloged. Been too tired of life and been just too tired to simply do anything. Maybe due to many dissappointment and discouragement in life.

As I do my devotion today here is something I want to share

Today as I worship this familar verse came into my mind as a form of voice Psalm 14:2 - The LORD looks down from heaven on the entire human race; he looks to see if anyone is truely wise if anyone seeks God

The Lord asked me, if I will be the one that seek after His heart, even when people around me are not being true to Him. I being to tear and eventually say yes

However another verse here Psalm 51:17 - The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and a contrite heart

I coming before Him broken knowing that without Him I am seriously nothing. As I worship I was reminded of people in hui say neh village about how much they need Him and how much they need to come before Him broken.

Today is simply a very peaceful and also joyful=)

Honouring God

Thank God is Friday and is a holiday.

Rested well and putting work a side.

Today also watched the dvd call flywheel. Was touched and impacted me.

I also worship and prayed.

Today my only prayer is that I will come to Him broken and in need of Him. Hence my worship will be pleasing and honorable to Him. Also that in whatever I do in my life be it photography, busniess and relationship I do it to honor Him by summiting all this before Him.

Oh Lord be it control.

living a life with purpose

Tomorrow will be having a pre wedding video production and I will be assisting=) although i am only a photographer I really want to learn to observe every aspect.

Anyway a little update of today. Today is rather a roller coaster ride, my emotion went up and down, anger stiring in my heart. Is rather a challanging day. While leaving the office today this song call ' we are the reason' played in my head and I actually sing along. Indeed we are the reason He suffered and die.... if I am in my room singing this i think i will flood the whole room. All this little things that the Lord said to me matters a lot.

=) I end of with a meaningful day with a lesson learnt.

Ps 13: 5-6 But I trust in your unfailing love I will rejoice because you have resuced me. 6 I will sing to the Lord because he is good to me.

Yup the Lord is good to me. my only desire is to love Jesus more and more each day. Is kind of hard here.

goodnight!

Intresting Morning

The moment I woke up this morning then realise that I actually wore my contact lens to sleep. After rolling like 20 min then I managed to drag myself to the bathroom to wash up myself. Was kind of late for work today so decided to just take a cab down, while waiting for cab I actually approached this young man to ask if he want to share cab with me since we are going at the same direction.

This young dude around his age of 21 while on the way I actually have a short chat here and there. From there then I knew that he is actually a secondary school drop out and having no sense of direction in life, I actually see great potential in this young man. However the Lord somehow spoke to me about his broken family and life. Well I also don't what to do about it so I just decided to just say good bye to him.

As the cab pass by geylang road, I was reminded there was a time my friend was telling me about the back alley in that area and how many broken life waiting to be touch by God.

I just hope that I can be that photographer that touches life be it capture reality or selling my possession. I don't know how.

But is really a great morning.

A Well Rested Day

Buying dinner for family as my mummy wasn't at home and also help to wash plate too. So didn't went out to punggol park to spend time alone wif God.

However I rested well seriously.

Beside rested well also having more time to sort out my thinking and my troubles in life.

Something to think about what does it mean to really lay down your life for your friend even when the surrounding does not seem to be in your favour. One thing I know Jesus lay down His life for the church. Still dunno haha..

I thank God for the rest and whatever good or bad happens.

Well I am still surviving.

I know it does nt really matter, because He is my all in all.

A Inspired Thoughts

In a few mins time I am leaving the office and head towards for a shoot.

I decided that i don't want to go through motion, I want to express, I want to shoot with meaning and joy.

Though there is equipment lack, but it does nt matter, I will try my best.

Oh Lord be with me=)!

Loving God with all of your heart, soul, mind AND strength?

Loving God with all of your heart, soul, mind AND strength?

This is the standard of loving Him, seriously I can't do it. God know we can't do it why still give this commandant?

I guess in God eyes loving Him mean to lay down our life totally for Him, dependent on Him only. All I can think of is David now, why is he called as a man after God heart?I guess is because of his Heart for God, even though He sinned , He still choose God wills and repented. Even when he is young, He trusted God totally.

So that why there is this saying 'may you fall even deeper in love with Jesus every day', I guess is a everyday process to CHOOSE to love Jesus.

Love is a heavy word, the most easy to use and the most easy to be abused. That why true love comes with a price. A price of suffering because you know He worth more than Gold.

I guess God made actually this commandant possible=) Because He first loved us and showed us this perfect love on the cross 2000 years ago.

Is not that He have missed out anything asking us to love Him, He gained nothing by sending His only cross to the cross. All He want is us as children of God to love Him as a Father, to be more and more like Jesus. To love Jesus it come with a price=) but we know He worth more than Gold.

Understanding The Heart of God

Throughout the days was very distracted and drained out.

Didn't eat my lunch as I don't felt like it and simply just want to hear clearer from the Lord.

Sometime woke me up is actually a touch of love from the Lord, it actually stir me up and make my heart soft towards Him. Agian I am being reminded of what is more important in life.

Philippians 3:7 - I once thought these things were valuable, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done

I know I will never be perfect enough, no matter how much work I do, how much time I spend in qt, how much time I spend attending church or cell group is never enough. Because one thing I know my God love me and perfected me through the faith in Christ=) To my personal conviction is that loving God is not about doing the things of God but instead it should be an act of worship, understanding the heart of God.

The Love That I can't Comprehend

以 弗 所 書 3:17-19

17 使 基 督 因 你 们 的 信 , 住 在 你 们 心 里 , 叫 你 们 的 爱 心 有 根 有 基 ,
18 能 以 和 众 圣 徒 一 同 明 白 基 督 的 爱 是 何 等 长 阔 高 深 ,
19 并 知 道 这 爱 是 过 於 人 所 能 测 度 的 , 便 叫 神 一 切 所 充 满 的 , 充 满 了 你 们 。

Ephesians 3:17-19

17 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. 18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. 19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't want to blog much about it, just want to tell you guys, I still don't fully understand this foolish love of Him, but it simply broke my heart whenever the image of His cross came into my mind.

Images Filled With Love

A photographer shouldn't just shoot what their eyes is looking at, but rather shoot what their heart is thinking of.

Thank you Jesus for anything that happen today.

Pure As Gold

Quite discourage recently due to some expectation that I can't met. Been pushing myself, been wanting to do it good.

Sometime just felt that I am being stuck and can't seem to move on.

Kind of frustrating.

But I know because of all this I go through, I will be a photographer that go through fire and come out pure as gold.

Attended service last week with the shagged out face and drained body. God is good, He fill me with His love that substain me once again to carry on doing the work.

Be Strong and Courageous

Received my latest pes status and is a B ... Well was pondering about life in ns and start to feel fearful and sian of it.

Today as I am reading about Joshua, was encouraged by how God actually keep reminding them be not be afraid, for He is always with them, also how the Lord actually, how the Lord part the Jordan River. Joshua actually got a choice not to do what God has told him, but yet to chose to do wherever God commanded him to do.

I know NS going to be a tough time, but surely I know the Lord is with me and He will go before me parting the river that I need to cross. That is if I chose to do it.

Joshua 1:5 (NLT) No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live. For I will be with you as I was with Moses. I will not fail you or abandon you.

Joshua 1:9 (NLT) This is my command - be strong and courageou! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Now preparing myself before I go in, and Lord make it through for me, I will go wherever u ask.

3 of Oct

3 of Oct was Andrew and Stella actural day wedding.

This wedding I had is quite different from the previous 2, this I was much relaxed because I had enough sleep the previous night=) I told myself I want to shoot moment not just snaping thousand of photos and pick the best out of it. I enjoyed the wedding and also learning to appreciate the very emotion that is let off during wedding. Wedding day is a big day because is the day they start to live as one, the day they share their joy, the day they share their blessing=)

Meaning In Every Pictures

Every pictures tell a story.

Today as I look through a photo blog and one question came into my mind, that is 'the why question'

Why take this shot? What is the meaning of this shot? after that who is the main focus and why?

Kind of have the urge to shoot now=)

I want to be beyond a photographer, I want to tell a story in a beautiful manner.

Learning to Appreciate and Enjoy Moment

Had my 2nd wedding and it left me questioning how can I improve myself, how can I capture it with the right feeling.

I just read one of my favourite photographer's blog, most of his entry filled with joy and excitement.

Beside mastering technical part, or even getting familar with wedding culture I guess there also a need to enjoy them or else it will be empty shot.

Every wedding is a joyous occassion, from the early morning make up to the last hand shake, therefore there is a need to learn to appreciate this moment because it is really hard to come by for the couple, a need to enjoy because this is the day that they share their joy. Is really an art to master and this require being sensitive and good attitude in our everyday life.

This 2nd wedding I had I felted really tired due to lack of sleep due to many commitment I have, I guess I need to sort out what is more important for me. Because I can't have everything.

Thx God for all this=) is all belong to Him.

The Air I Breathe

The air I breathe today belong to the Lord, I live because He breathe in me 24 hr a day.

I am dead tired.... going to rest early tonight. Tomorrow will be a great day ahead because I believe.

A Lesson of Patience

Feeling dead tired due to the lack of sleep.

However I just live my days running and running and didn't really take awhile to rest, even is resting I am still thinking of the world.

Really a fast pacing world, time seem to be running out always. Especially when we trying to be successful or even just earning to survive day by day. It totally drain our energy off. Eventually when one is close to their death all this are slowly strip away, so what is really meaningful then?

Being patience and not being anxious is a powerful tool. As in it help us to always find the true meaning in doing things. It help us to think and understand. Because today is assist in a school concept shoot, and basicly I am doing my own things and neglect the actually shoot procedure, I am not scolded but was actually mentored and this set me thinking the whole day why I am not being scolded. I found the answer is actually patience.

With patience we tend to live differently from this world. As in slower in pace, even though is slower but it always help one to understand life and what is really more important in life. Because of that patience that person gave it actually make me learn a lesson of supporting and being focus. So what is more meaningful? Actually simply just being patience so that we won't miss that moment in helping a person.

In Deep Thoughts

At home right now. But unsual stuff happen to me is that I actually put aside my work and watch TV. Kind of like my rest? Haha! Instead of going back to work I am actually in deep thoughts after watching a drama series about family, something struck me is the word love.

Indeed is something so fragile but worth fighting for in life even it require throwing away the word pride which is really diffcult. Because love is something can't buy,and true love can actually melts and fill emptiness in one hearts, I said that because I personally withness it.

As i think further my hearts begin to felt softer and comforted, because it just remind me of the agape love that He been pouring in my life. I still remember the day how He actually melts me and that leads to me making the greatest life decision which is to follow Him.

I decided to change blog because I really want to start experiencing life in a different way. Different way as in really open my eyes big big and look at every moment that is so precious be it good or bad.

I really need to grow after my 1st wedding as an assistant I ask myself 'how much do I actually understand all this'. My honest answer is I am not sure. As an photographer it require maturity, all this come by journaling life with a purpose, moment by moment which is everyday.
