Sermon by Pst Aries during Overnite PM

Went for Prayer meeting today and Pst Aries message really hit many of us present over there.
Today sermon is abt Grace and Trust which is this week's cg sermon.

*Below are the message that i received under my perception:

He was mentioning that even though we, Christian always say that we walk in grace, but never did we know that by just walking in grace is not enough.

It is great to know God is graceful to us but its another thing to know God deeper.
Therefore we are to move from Grace to the truth of God/God's Word.

He carries on by saying abt the 5 loaves & 2 fish story in the bible.

On that day, 5000 men were being fed with only 5 loaves & 2 fish which all of us know that it is nothing more than a miracle.
So after the miracle, Jesus went to another city and the 5000 men who experience the miracle followed. At the second part of John6 onwards, it mention that Jesus speaks to the multitudes and talking abt the partaker of His flesh and blood.(I'm getting very brief over here as that's not the main highlight)
So many who heard that and left Jesus as they(multitudes "Christians") couldn't accept what Jesus had just spoken.

Ask yourself why those 5000 men followed Jesus?
They followed bcos of the miracles that Jesus performed and they are expecting it again.
But to Jesus, His intention is not for them to follow after the miracles but to let them look behind the miracles and know who is the miracle performer.

So just like Pst Kong always mention during service.
"Dun just look at the blessings but rather look at the bless er"

So the Grace and truth thingy is really talking abt knowing the Grace(Miracles) is good and beneficial to us, but we got to look beyond the Miracles(Grace) and see Jesus(Truth of God) is working on it.

Truth of God is also = to truth of God's Word. (The Word is God and the Word was God)
We are to have the WOG in our life by hearing and meditating on it.

So the story mention that those who experience the miracles soon did not follow Jesus at the end. That means when we walk under God's Grace, we might experience backsliding as grace can't keep us spiritual in God. Grace is something that reflect on how God is graceful and merciful to us and that's all.
So to keep us from backsliding it all comes back to the WOG = truth of God(God's Promises).

So when we speak the WOG it will bring life back to us. Amen.

In the last part, Pst also shared abt his revelation he had today.
As he was listening to audio sermon, a preacher was talking abt the Hand of God brought Ezekiel to the valley of dry bones. Ezekiel did not know what to do with those dry bones in front of him and then God told him to speak forth life(the WOG) onto the dry bones and the bones start to join back and flesh starts to grow.

So this story could be link to some of our current condition on Christians or CG.
Pst was mentioning that the (valley = CG's not growing), (bones represent the dead = spiritual "dry" members) and (the word "dry" could represent no presence of God during CG).

So if a CG that is not growing, members starts to backsliding and worse, when there's no presence of God during CG, could you imagine how the CG leader and members will feel...

So coming back to Pst revelation, he was mentioning that the preacher says that even when we are in the valley with dry bones, God grace is still there for us and the revelation part is the "dry bones" are not yet buried.
Funny right.. Bones by right should be buried and not just left onto the ground.
So the point is that no matter how worse our situation is, as long as we are not dead and buried, the grace of God will be there for us.

And all we need to do is to speak the WOG(life) into our lives and we'll be revived once again.

Guys, even in the mist of trials and problems in life, we still have the grace of God over us and all we need to do in our part, is to live on the WORD OF GOD and turn back to Jesus.

I've just received mine a few hours ago.
Thank you Jesus.

Pursuing Degree

After almost 2 yrs of break, I've decided to go back to sch and pursue my Degree in Logistics Management with Kaplan.

I'll soon get my student pass and able to buy student meals at Mac.. Yeah.. LoL

Anyway it's a Bachelor of Science with Honors.
National University of Ireland, Dublin aka University of College Dublin is the Uni I'm in. Yeah..

The sch crest even have the logo of the Guinness Stout beer.


Cool right.. LoL

The story of the logo are as follow:
Dublin is holding the Undisputable Can Drink Competition.

So on the final day of competition, 3 contestants were to finished 200 bottles of Guinness Stout beers within 2 hours.
After a tough fight, the winners each received the 1st, 2nd & 3rd prices accordingly.

All 3 of them are awarded with a castle with the 3rd getting the smaller ones and the 1st got the biggest castle.

Then it happen that the 2nd runner up arrived at his home and burp when he is lighting his cigar which came in contact with his alcoholic gases being expose to fire and resulted in the fire blowers stance which burn the house down.

At the same time, the 1st runner up arrived at his home and he vomited when he is trying to cook supper which resulted those crap from his stomach caught fire which burn the house down.

It happen the same to the winner as he was passing by and saw 2 other castle was brightly lit(he was too drunk to notice that the light was actually fire) and his castle does not have a light so he went over to borrow some light which caught himself on fire and he ran home to lit it before the light burns off.

Hahaha
I know it's not funny and super lame.. Nvm..
It's my sch

New Environment, New Account

This is yet another stepping stone in my life & I'm determine to Conquer it.

Before CNY i was informed that I'll be posting to another client's account to take care of their stocks during the 2nd wk after CNY. I was all excited as it was the path that i wanted to take & progress with.

Not saying that my previous client's account was not good.
But felt that i need a breakthrough & not being restricted to my 4 PCs in front of me.
Haha.. Bet you all didn't know i work with 4 computers. But most of the time i only need 2 PCs. I was enjoying my work but it's getting too mundane day in day out.

So happily went for my CNY & during the first day back at work, i was asked to start my first day with the new account on the spot with not much guidance (My colleague was on leave for 2 days). So all i could do was helping here & there. But it's fulfilling as it was a brand new environment for me to learn.

I'm not sure what's wrong with "1st day of work".
Since i step into DHL, my first day is always a taste of OTing... LoL.
So it means I'm useful since i could stay for OT when i still new to the process. But for this account that I'm handling, system transactions is not a big issue. The main issue is the way/method/process which has passed down.

I've been learning for almost 2 wks now. Most of the SOP i have roughly know. So all i need to do is to master it & implement new process/simplify methods/proper guides to this account which i seriously think it needs some tidying up.

Also the other area to improve was my operational skills.
I'm still very "green" in this area. So need lots of experience & hard work to sharpen the skills.
However, I'm quite glad that I've already able to operate almost all the machines except forklift which requires me to attend course to obtain the license.

I'm also not forgetting to keep in touch with my previous account so to maintain my standards/skills.

I'm really looking forward to some day that i could be able to help all the accounts in my department & implement better processes which will benefit those who are directly working on it.

Yeah!!!
