God's Creation (Mystical and Unbelievable)

Chance upon this link lately. This is a documentary series by Discovery Channel that explore the human body by investigating the ultimate testing that human body is able to take and to find the superhuman ability that we have never discovered.

Perhaps this superhuman ability is what people say "God's Strength". This is the strength that perhaps God has put it in way in the beginning that it will only be used and run on overdrive when challenges, crisis and danger happens. That is the awesome and mystical creation that we never knew.

Ironman (Remembrance of Heroes) - Part 1

In the spirit of the Ironman, I decided to take us through some of the heroes who has raced the Ironman over the last few years that brought many of us to tears and inspire us to be strong the chase our dreams.



First stop is none other than Jon "Blazeman" Blais. The Warrior Poet that fought strongly with ALS. Though he was gone last year but his Will and his Spirit lives on and had spurred us on to keep fighting and to have action against ALS. The famous roll to the finish line still can be seen at all the Ironman race and Chrissie Wellington did just that during this years race.

Blazeman, we salute you!

This is just one of the famous poem written by Jon Blais and it can be found on his website:

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your hearts longing.

It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dreams or for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your sorrow. If you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shriveled and close from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fit it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own; if you can dance with the wildness and let the "Meatheadedness" fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, or to remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn't interest me if the story you're telling is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself, if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. I want to know if you can be faithful and trustworthy. I want to know if you can see beauty even when it is not there everyday, and if you can source your life from its presence. I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still shout stand on the edges of a lake, river or mountain and shout to the silver of the full moon. Yes! I'm a Meathead...

It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after a night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done for someone you love.

It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself, and truly like the company you keep in the empty moments of your life and still remember me...

Your friend, Blazeman - King of all "Meatheads" 2004.

Sabah My Second Home!

Its official. Sabah, Borneo, East Malaysia is my second home. There so much more thing about Sabah than in Singapore I can rave about. Its the place where I seek refuge and a place to slow myself down so that I can think properly and of course a place where it never fail to renew my Faith in God and the future. A place that God speaks to me the most clear.

What can I say. Perhaps this song by another youtube guy will tell you. This is the same feeling I have.

Post Sabah!





I know this had been long overdue but I guess if I don't put it down I will definitely forget totally about it.

Final Week Reflection:

I haven't been so overwhelmed for a while, but this is the week that I reflect and realised that God has been really speaking to me about issues that I have been escaping.



1) What is the purpose of my life?
2) What is my current state spiritually?
3) Who is God to me?

The Verdict


Well, I had forgotten to thank Him for who I am and I have forgotten to could my blessings and my purpose, I am kinda lost. I have no direction, I have forgotten my main purpose and that is to outreach to people and make disciples that I have totally forgot and I am not making any apology about spiritual word and statement here. I am first a Christian, a Child of God before anything else. I have a mission and that is to make disciples. Where is my Brother? I have to face it, for so many years that I have forgotten about that. I need to get back to it. Passionate of it!

Action

Go back to Singapore and Start doing what I have left behind and not let work overwhelmed me. I need to start getting back into Ministry work and not allowing the blessings of skills gone to waste! I need to make a comeback and draw on His strength to pull me through. I need to keep the spiritual throttle on!
