海潮
如果你听过海浪澎湃
你不会不在乎我
摔碎的心灵 你可想重拼凑过
独自航海的身影如此单薄
如果你到过天涯之落
也许已岁月蹉跎
编制的浪卷 已经航成沉默
那不自觉的爱已融入生活
我已坠入 天涯下海角沉没
是不是这样就不会再迷惑
海啸 到底在吹奏些什么？
唤醒了我你的声音 依然清晰在我耳边穿梭
海涛 浪花 海潮
是不是在衬托着你我
可知道我已等了多少日起日落
听 海潮也寂寞
*我在1999年创作的一首歌，由我的好弟兄俊龙作曲我填词,先有词后曲。

What does the Bible mean that we are not to judge others?
What does the Bible mean that we are not to judge others?
Shared via AddThis
Question: "What does the Bible mean that we are not to judge others?"
Answer: This is an issue that has confused many people. On one hand, we are commanded by the Lord Jesus, “Do not judge, or you too will be judged” (Matthew 7:1). On the other hand, the Bible also exhorts us to beware of evildoers and false prophets and to avoid those who practice all kinds of evil. How are we to discern who these people are if we do not make some kind of judgment about them?
Christians are often accused of "judging" whenever they speak out against a sinful activity. However, that is not the meaning of the Scripture verses that state, "Do not judge." There is a righteous kind of judgment we are supposed to exercise—with careful discernment (John 7:24). When Jesus told us not to judge (Matthew 7:1), He was telling us not to judge hypocritically. Matthew 7:2-5 declares, "For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye." What Jesus was condemning here was hypocritical, self-righteous judgments of others.
In Matthew 7:2-5, Jesus warns against judging someone else for his sin when you yourself are sinning even worse. That is the kind of judging Jesus commanded us not to do. If a believer sees another believer sinning, it is his Christian duty to lovingly and respectfully confront the person with his sin (Matthew 18:15-17). This is not judging, but rather pointing out the truth in hope—and with the ultimate goal—of bringing repentance in the other person (James 5:20) and restoration to the fellowship. We are to speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15). We are to proclaim what God's Word says about sin. 2 Timothy 4:2 instructs us, "Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage — with great patience and careful instruction." We are to "judge" sin, but always with the goal of presenting the solution for sin and its consequences—the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:6).

Happy Family
Labour Day fell on last Friday, and it was a public holiday. While I am not working Saturday and Sunday, it should be sufficient for a long rest for 3 continouus off-days. Yet, my eldest brother's whole family came all the way from Ipoh and paid us a visit. I thank God for the weekend as we spent good time together, which means no quarrel for this visit, haha...!
I think my nieces spent a very good time here with us as well as got enough shopping experiences -.-|||
Sunday evening, it was a little ex-sccc mates gathering at Lizhi's house. Lizhi, Jee Jin, Algene, Harvard, Siew Teen, Chee Ming, Yi Chuan and I had a very delicious and filling steamboat. Chee Seng and his girl-fren did not make it this time as his gf had a voice recording somewhere out-there and we hope that he could join us next time. Through-out the nite, we had steamboat, wii, PS3, web-cam with aunty ruth and the rest of them at Boomspring Lane at UK, as well as singspiration and praying session. Thank God for the time and sharing we spent together... :D Hope to meet u guys soon and may God be with you and do walk closely with him.

God Bless America
I read two news articles yesterday and today about Miss Carlifornia, the beauty queen defends gay-marriage comments. During the pageant, Hilton asked Carrie Prejean if every state should follow Vermont in legalising same sex marriage.
She replied, “I think it’s great that Americans are able to choose one or another, but in my country, and in my family, I think that I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offence to anybody out there, but that’s how I was raised.”
After the pageant, she further defended her views, “At that moment after I’d answered the question, I knew that I was not going to won because of my answer”. Still, she stands by her statements. “I don’t take back what I said,” she told Lauer, adding that she “had spoken from my heart, from my beliefs and for my God”. “It’s not about being politically correct,” she said. “For me, it’s about being biblically correct.”

Wait
Desperately, helplessly, longingly, I cried;Quietly, patiently, lovingly God replied
I pled and I wept for a clue to my fate,
And the Master who gently said,
"Child, you must wait."
"Wait You say wait!" my indignant reply.
"Lord, I need answers, I need to know why!
Is your hand shortened? Or have you not heard?
By faith, I have asked, and am claiming your Word
"My future and all to which I can relate
Hangs in the balance, and YOU tell me to WAIT?
I'm needing a 'yes' a go-ahead sign,
Or even a 'no' to which I can resign.
"And Lord, You promised that if we believe
We need but to ask, and we shall receive.
Lord, I've been asking and this is my cry;
I'm weary of asking! I need a reply!"
Then quietly, softly, I learned of my fate.
As my Master replied once again, "You must wait."
So, I slumped in my chair, defeated and tout
And grumbled to God, "So, I'm waiting. . . for what?"
He seemed, then to kneel and His eyes wept with mine,
And he tenderly said, "I could give you a sign.
I could shake the heavens and darken the sun.
I could raise the dead and cause mountains to run.
"All you seek I could give and pleased you would be.
You would have what you want — but you wouldn't know Me.
You'd not know the depth of My love for each saint;
You'd not know the joy of resting in Me
When darkness and silence were all you could see.
"You'd never experience that fullness of love
As the peace of My Spirit descends like a dove;
You'd know that I live and I save . . . (for a start),
But you'd not know the depth of the beat of My heart.
"The glow of My comfort late into the night.
The faith that I give when you walk without sight.
The depth that's beyond getting just what you asked
Of an infinite God, who makes what you have LAST.
"You'd never know, should your pain quickly flee,
What it means that 'My grace is sufficient for Thee.'
Yes, your dreams for your loved one overnight would come true,
But, Oh the loss! If I lost what I'm doing to you!
"So be silent, my child, and in time you will see
That the greatest of gifts is to get to know Me
And though oft' may My answers seem terribly late
My most precious answer of all is still, "WAIT".

Visit to Laman Baiduri
I visited Laman Baiduri show unit today. What a discriminated experience!
The person in-charged aunty there were friendly to us when we first visited the show unit, but after a while she observed us might not be a potential customer. Her attitude changed 100% and rude to us. When I walked out from the show unit and went to the sales counter asked for prices, she pointed to the board and told me the prices were all there. When I confused with the stickers on the board, she did explained to me, but with a unfriendly attitude. The worse is when I wanted to snap a photo of the prices, she said "Sorry! You cannot take a picture of it!" ... Well, I didnt know I could not do so, but at least you can say it in a polite manner.
When we about leaving, she didnt further explain or say anything, at least a "bye".
The interior design is amazing, but the attitude of the sales person is disappointed.

RM100 "Soul-out"
Bad hair day!
In year 2007 before I left Malaysia to Sheffield, I experienced a 'terri-gible' incident with a durian trader at street, today I faced the same to a 'un-known' no balls uncle. It was really irritated to meet this kind of people. I would not say it is an argument, because there is no 'points' at all to argue, they distorted the truth and created new story.
I went to 'cheng beng' (so called remembrance of passed away relatives at grave yard for Chinese) with my mom. I accompanied my mom to go, not because I am joining them to 'worship' the people who died and buried there. But my mom wanted to go and I would go and take care of her. We care for people who is still alive, do not focus on people who died!
I told my mom we got to hurry and finish it early in the morning. My mom is old, she walks slowly and she like to touch here and there. So we went up to the hill around 7.15am. There was quite crowded yet I still managed to drive in to up hill and park my car quite near to my grandma's grave yard. For me, I would rather park far outside and walk inside because the 'road' is narrow, wet and swam. When we finished and about to leave, there are two cars, one parked behind my car and another one right back, and my left is blocked. So I asked the person who just about to leave his car from right back to move his car away so that I can leave. But he insisted to help me to guide me, to drive out the car between the narrow path. So since they would want to guide me, so I took the offer and listen to his instruction. Too bad! When they asked me to drive near to the car near left to me, and asked me to drive backward, they said ok to drive backward, yet he forgot to help me to see my front car which was so near to the left car. Here it happened! I walked of the car and asked the guy to help to drive instead of giving 'kind' instructions. The guy said 'ok, but wait for me to put my things and I will be back'. He left...
The owner of the car that my car scratched, walked near to us and ...well, you know. They wanted compensation in terms of cash. I really did not know whether the scratches on his car, is new or old. So I just making a statement, "But I am not sure whether is this new or old!" "Can I pay you RM50 rather than RM100?" These were the questions I threw to the owner of the car.
When we were still bargaining for the compensation, suddenly there was a 'uncle' walked passing besides me and said "if you would pay for RM50 better dont pay". Well, I took the 'advice' and answered him, "oh ok, then dont pay then." and sat back into my car about to leave. But suddenly that 'uncle' scolded us not giving money, swore and cursed, and spoke 'bad' words to my mom and I. We was like "what?"... My mom scolded him back for his faulty words, and he scolded even more faulty words and swore to the sky. Gosh... and he said he wanted to use his car to bang my car and did some kind of posture to kick my car. I was like, is he so called 'Malaysian'? 'Chinese'? 'Civilised'? 'Aging uncle'? Poor him ... shamed on him. He started to say we didn't want to pay the compensation and argued that we did not do that scratches. People surrounding all sided to him and asked us to pay. Most of them are his relatives and friends, if not mistaken. But anyway, he is really ... I could not described or named this creature of the earth. I find no words to name 'it'. Adam named all the animals on this earth, but I really not sure whether is 'it' included.
There was no point of arguing with them, because they were all uncivilised. I asked the owner of the car, "is he your friend?" The owner of the car didnt say anything, is he or is he not? Or even worst, we all did not know him. Where did he burst out from? I paid to the owner of the car, and I said loudly "Sorry yah, pai seh yah!" to the owner. When I about to leave the area, I turned back to the crowd and said 'Sorry yah everyone, if anything offended!" No point of arguing, I would rather use 'apologise' to slap their faces... and sadly, I bought their souls and pride with two pieces of RM50- RM100. What the earth!!!
What are those creatures? One day, they will definitely have to face what they had done on this earth in front of God, every scene will re-play in front of them and before God. How would they face it and feel? Will they ever realise what they have done?
On the way out of the hill, I told my mom. They lost the balance/standard of good and bad, right and wrong. "Do you know how good is good, and how bad is bad? What right is considered right, and what wrong is considered wrong?" "I dont know" "It was all written in the Bible. But people just ignored it and turned away from the truth."
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord. On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.~ Romans 12:17-21

Busy
Satan called a worldwide convention of demons. In his opening address he said,
"We can't keep Christians from going to church."
"We can't keep them from reading their Bibles and knowing the truth."
"We can't even keep them from forming an intimate relationship with their saviour."
"Once they gain that connection with Jesus, our power over them is broken."
"So let them go to their churches; let them have their covered dish dinners, BUT steal their time, so they don't have time to develop a relationship with Jesus Christ.."
"This is what I want you to do," said the devil:
"Distract them from gaining hold of their Saviour and maintaining that vital connection throughout their day!"
"How shall we do this?" his demons shouted.
"Keep them busy in the non-essentials of life and invent innumerable schemes to occupy their minds," he answered.
"Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow."
"Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work 6-7 days each week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty lifestyles."
"Keep them from spending time with their children."
"As their families fragment, soon, their homes will offer no escape from the pressures of work!"
"Over-stimulate their minds so that they cannot hear that still, small voice."
"Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive."
To keep the TV, VCR, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their home and see to it that every store and restaurant in the world plays non-biblical music constantly."
"This will jam their minds and break that union with Christ."
"Fill the coffee tables with magazines and newspapers."
"Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day."
"Invade their driving moments with billboards."
"Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogs, sweepstakes, and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products, services and false hopes.."
"Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines and TV so their husbands will believe that outward beauty is what's important, and they'll become dissatisfied with their wives. "
"Keep the wives too tired to love their husbands at night."
"Give them headaches too! "
"If they don't give their husbands the love they need, they will begin to look elsewhere."
"That will fragment their families quickly!"
"Give them Santa Claus to distract them from teaching their children the real meaning of Christmas."
"Give them an Easter bunny so they won't talk about his resurrection and power over sin and death."
"Even in their recreation, let them be excessive."
"Have them return from their recreation exhausted."
"Keep them too busy to go out in nature and reflect on God's creation.
Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, plays, concerts, and movies instead." "Keep them busy, busy, busy!"
"And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences."
"Crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek power from Jesus."
"Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health and family for the good of the cause."
"It will work!"
"It will work!"
It was quite a plan!
The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busier and more rushed, going here and there.
Having little time for their God or their families.
Having no time to tell others about the power of Jesus to change lives.
I guess the question is, has the devil been successful in his schemes?
What do you think?
