[ENG] There’s always a moment in our life where we would face impossibilities. And everyone knows that where there is an impossibility needed, faith is needed. We all knew that well, right? But knowing and actually facing it, is a whole different thing. There are a bunch of feelings inside one word : Faith.

We all have our Jordan river to be crossed. What is it , your Jordan? Sickness, Family’s feud, disability, financial breakdown, or even intimidation and temptations from the evil that have tied us up to sin?
Whatever our Jordan River is, we can cross it by our self. with bloody efforts, but when we let God lead us in crossing it, we’ll see how He will cut off the waters in between for us to cross over easily.
[ENG] When i saw the oozing wounds all over my body, i mean, what’s the joy about this? You must be mistaken, God! How could you say that this is a pure joy?! – But today i would say that those horrible dark days with eczema that i have been through is one of the things i thank most, it’s not like i want to experience it again, but what it has brought me this day.
[ENG] This passage has only 3 verses but i found it so amazingly powerful and wonderful! These words of God described how Jesus healed me from my experience with severe eczema and How you could catch His presence and achieve your miracles !
[ENG] Faith is trusting that we have received God’s promises even when it’s not happening yet. Faith is trusting God’s love – not just what He can do but more of His heart to us. Faith is to see beyond what our eyes could see.
Let’s start our new year with a renewed faith by God’s grace.
[ENG] I could say that getting hit by a severe eczema is the worst plan that God could probably have for me. Well, that is before i knew His heart and His real plans are. Today, getting hit by a severe eczema is a precious moment of my life, a wonderful set of plan from Jesus’s big plans.
Are you dealing with dark times of your life? Maybe you are thinking just like what i was thinking, that probably this is the worst plan He got for you, or maybe you think that He is so bad that make you this way? If yes, then please hear me out for a second!
[ENG] Have you ever heard the scripture that says :
“I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain. ‘Move from here to there.’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible. (Matthew 17:20)
There is more than just Love and Commitment to keep one relationship alive. You need Compassion.
And let’s learn what compassion’s really like from one person i know whose His loves is at no boundaries and His compassion changes lives. His name is Jesus Christ. I could say that Compassion is one thing that comes only if you are truly loved. How many of us always search for someone who cares, who would sacrifice a thing for us? Well maybe not even a thing, we even ask for our spouse to sacrifice a little time for us often, right? But how often then we also got disappointed for it?
“someone who is vulnerable is weak or easy to hurt physically or mentally; a thing, person, or place that is vulnerable is easy to attack; easily damaged by something negative or harmful.” (source : macmillandictionary)
“capable of or susceptible to being wounded or hurt, as by weapon.” (source : dictionary.reference)
Let’s take the word vulnerable in a different way today.
