Following our Hearts

For those who are really close to me who know as someone who is in full support of trusting our hearts as we walk with our lovely Lord! For me, as I’ve said or blogged about many times, “The heart is the greatest gift that God has ever given because its only at our hearts where we feel the love that Go has poured out so amazingly upon us and its also at the heart where we truly are able to recognize and meet the love which Jesus himself poured out upon us through the death of his cross.

I guess its also why I always love walking upon God. Its just mainly because God embraces & respects that I need my heart whenever I walk with the Lord! Its only at our awesome hearts where God speaks to us and allows his grace to flow. And I am sure that its at our hearts where we feel the grace of God flowing in us, not even brilliant our minds are able to feel the grace & love of God. And of course using our hearts is something that this world of ours will never approve of.

As many guys would say that using our hearts is for girls but here comes a revelation from the heavens:

“It takes more courage to follow your heart that not to follow your heart because when you follow your heart, you will enter into a state where you will be left venerable and a feeling of unknowns of what would happen. It’ll lead you to a place where you could easily be abandoned but could also lead you to a place that's closest to heaven.”

It really does take true courage to follow your heart and the sad thing today is that even people in our parishes of our ministries don’t follow their hearts due to the influences of our seniors. But would following your heart lead to the evil one?

This is when the brilliant Spirit of God comes into place in our lives. If we are constantly indulging in things that are mastered by the evil one, then so too will our hearts be guided by the Spirit of the Evil one. This is what God himself did teach me whenever I followed my heart. For my heart to be seeking God, then it must be guided by the Spirit of God! But then I asked how? And that was when God revealed to me; ‘Prayer’ is the key for all of this to add up positively. Prayer is what keeps us constantly in the Spirit of God and allows our hearts to be molded by God & his Love.

So, following our hearts and always immersing ourselves in prayer is the key when we walk with God and know that along the way, God will always teach us the knowledge of God himself. Sin is what tries to separate us from God and steers our hearts towards the evil one. That’s when the true knowledge of God and his love is important. This knowledge would lead us back to God. And once we are the state of grace & love again, we will always be able to delight in God because our hearts always belong to him and he’ll be guiding us always.

Stay in tune with the Spirit of God and follow your hearts! Praise God!

What is Desire?

What is desire for you? And what is the strength of your desire? This has been the latest wondering thought and reflection in my mind of the past 2 days. I guess these have been due to the reason of questioning what I am doing here and also what i hope to achieve while I'm here. Its been a trip that I'd been planning for 8 months but here there is a questioning of what I'm doing now that I'm here.

There's been many feelings of frustration as I just waste these precious days but in the depths of my heart, I am so aware of the great desire I have for this quiet time with God. But I am sure that time and again, the evil one keeps drifting my desired attention from God to something to keep wasting the whole day. But in the midst of these frustrations, there is a immense desire to read the brilliant books I bought, spend time in prayer, do writing on my reflections and also just delighting in God with the lovely views. And none of these desires have been touched with real depth.

But today as I reflect on Desire, i realize that Desire is something that's deep within your heart. Desire has the ability to make someone great in the sight of God when its worked upon. Desire can either become a negative influence or positive influence. And as I go a little more into depth, I conclude that desires we have in our hearts have got to do with what is it that we are do with our lives.

If we find ourselves caught in sin all the time, then obviously, we keep realizing that our deepest desires within our hearts are negative influences for us. We keep finding ourselves coming back to the starting point where we think about what we are doing with our lives.

But then again, most of the time, if we find ourselves being contented all the time with what we have and are given, we'll find ourselves filled with grace and joy as we are constantly driven by the awesome god-given desires in our hearts. And as a result, its a huge reflection of how our desires serve us as amazingly positive influences.

And in the spirit of lent, what is your desire? And is that desire drawing you closer to God? And if it is, then pray to God for the grace cause he has placed it there for a reason. But don't let anyone stop or discourage you from achieving that God-given desire in the depths of your amazingly glorious heart!

Beautiful Beach Day

I must say that there's never been a more beautiful sight that I've seen with my own eyes and also be at the actual venue. I mean, I've have seen on the internet pictures of beautiful beaches but its a totally different story when you're actually there!


I know it looks so fake but its seriously real! Don't you just agree with me that its so beautiful?

And on top of the beautiful sight, I had such an excellent time with God at the beach. The beach made it so excellent for me to just soak in the presence of God and also got down to do some journaling as well. It was so easy to reflect in such a great beauty of God! And although it took me a week to settle down in Perth, the day at the beach was the best to really begin the joyful pilgrimage with God.


So Lord Jesus, I truly do praise and thank you O Lord for the beautiful sight which truly does underline you magnificence. Praise God!

Here some more pictures from Cottlesloe Beach on Perth. Enjoy!

The Arrival

The arrival to Perth has been made. Last night as I arrived, feelings of awaiting something so special overwhelmed me. I started to feel God, just awaiting for me to arrive and spend the next 6 weeks of my spiritual holiday with him.

The past 24 hours has been quite fast though, and I am fully aware that there are many people betting that I’ll end up after the 6 weeks, just hating Perth for the boredom it gives. But so far its been so great I must say. My Godfather’s place is really good to relax with God.

How can the sights below, not give you a expression of God?



And how awesome is God to have given me a really awesome room i my Godfather's house. It's been such a blessing to have my Godfather to help me out with full accomodations in Perth. But in all things, I guess I'm really just excited to start entering ino full gear for prayer and whatever God wants me to do.

In the meantime, I know God has alot planned for me in the days of Lent. And I'm sure he's got alot planned for each of his children too.

Also, for those who need to reach, you can sms or call me at my usual mobile, without the need of any additions of area codes. I will update you on revelations from God as soon as I start with prayer. Please keep me in prayers! Thanks!

Praise God!
