"who am I" Youth Camp Theme Talk

"Know your Maker, put your life in the master's hand like the clay in the potter's hand, and live the abundant life our creator had prepared for us in Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit."

Thoughts on "Click"

I just watch this new movie yesterday, it stirs my thoughts.
Our character is a refection of our habits, and our habits are formed by our behavior. What we choose today, will mould our character tomorrow. What is our preference when we are in a choice between work and family? Between work and God? Or family and God? If youths today are encourage to choose academic studies before God, I'm sure they will choose their work above God in future.
Adam Sandler had a second chance, I don't think we have.
What kind of life do we want? What kind of life do we want our youths to have? I believe, start choosing now.....

Pray...

Praying is
coming to God in total surrender, trusting that He will give you the best. (Matt 7:7-11)

Intimacy with God

In this postmodern culture, people are seeking to feel close to God, to be connected to the source, to be intimate with God and to grab hold of God, the phenomena is true to both Christian and non-Christian. New ager will say don't think just feel, when feeling becomes dominant what we have is waves of Christian running after created atmosphere that make them feel the presence of God, music and songs that "touches" their heart (in tune with their spirit), contemplative practice that could bring them to an altered state, a closer connection with God and spiritual manifestation that make them feel good or touch by God. But my question is after the music fades, after we leave the "holy place", when we are not in "silence" and when we do not see miraculous signs, who we are before God? How are we related to Him? Is He still relevant to us?
Sex is the most intimate act in a strongly, closely and faithfully builded relationship between a husband and his wife within a commitment. People are involved in premarital sex because they are so drawn towards physical closeness. They want to "feel close" rather than taking time to build a strong and close relationship with their lover. Many of this "instant" love failed when it comes to marriage. Why? Their do not have a strong relationship, a foundation of understanding and commitment.
To have intimacy with God thru feeling close to Him without taking effort and time to grow in His Word, Will and relationship with Him, is just like having "one night stand" with God. This is very Dangerous.....
First let us build a strong relationship with Him by understanding His Word and Will, deepen our worship to Him by offering ourselves as living sacrifice in our daily life, walk closely with Him through daily communion of prayer.
