Those who love money will never have enough , true ?

Ecc 5:10  Those who love money will never have enough. How absurd to think that wealth brings true happiness!

Be careful with the verse , it is LOVE of money NOT those who have money ! you can have money but don't love money , or you can have NO money but love money , your mind , heart and soul think about money all the time , money set your life priority , money drive and run your soul ...

So you decide whether love money will never have enough whether is true or not by first and foremost decide whether you love money ...

Two is better than one!

Ecc 4:9  Two people can accomplish more than twice as much as one; they get a better return for their labor.
Ecc 4:10  If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But people who are alone when they fall are in real trouble.
Ecc 4:11  And on a cold night, two under the same blanket can gain warmth from each other. But how can one be warm alone?
Ecc 4:12  A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.

In your work , who is your partner ?

In your spiritual life , who is your partner ?

So that when you fall which , as expected , anything can fall will fall some how , be it serious or simple and it will be challenging when you fall alone and no one help you to pick up yourself ?

As the bible said , it is good to have two or better is three ... one can be your spouse , your co-worker and i proposed another one is God , what say you ? if interested ,we JBCF love to share with you the idea and contact us ...

In today , modern context ...

When i was reading the book of Nehemiah , Chapter 13 , it mentioned not everybody can enter into the temple court and Nehemiah even used Solomon as an example that because he compromised the standard of God , that has caused him to sin ... in our churches as we embraces the world how much convictions or will we react if we know that we have compromised God's standard ?


Nehemiah reacted as mentioned in V8 - V9 , restore everyone responsibilities , put trustworthy people in charge , along his responses and execution of his followup after the completion of the wall in 52 days , the bible mentioned that he continue pray , and he confronted the leaders who did not follow God's commands (V19), then he further noticed about working on Sabbath day and enforced the loosen expectation ...

then Nehemiah continues his follow up in inter-marriage among themselves and making sure that levites and priests doing God's will and in fact he go into expecting people bringing their offering on time...


Everything that Nehemiah did , served as a reminder for us whether we are leaders or non leaders today, THE MODERN CONTEXT that as a person who are not working as a full time minister that ...

when it comes to sunday service , church commitment most importantly God's standard, are we absolutely have convictions, having totally clear conscious that we do not compromise and give valid excuses to ourselves and to the people that we leading ?


it challenged me as well as inspired me to lead JBCF to start our mini 52 days spiritual dream revival project from 15/Aug to  7/Oct , for myself , my goal is to get everyone in JBCF to start our spiritual dream again.
And for myself , it will be a daily praying for the goal to be able to achieve !

why don't you try to change God's mind?

We may not always be possible to change God's mind but it is not totally impossible , Abraham,  Moses , Joshua , Elijah ... and many people in the bible did it !

as a father , we may failed in many areas and in fact we may be able to see that our children foolishness and we missed our time where we suppose to do something to discipline them where we didn't and end up they grow up not glorifying God and we , if study the bible we know God's standard and it will end up a cursed live ...

in 1 Sam 3:1 ~ 18 , we know Eli knew his sons is rebellious (1Sa 2:22  Now Eli was very old, but he was aware of what his sons were doing to the people of Israel. He knew...) , but after he heard what Samuel told him in  1Sa 3:18  So Samuel told Eli everything; he didn't hold anything back. "It is the LORD's will," Eli replied. "Let him do what he thinks best." ,


Eli only responded look like submission or so called surrender to God's will "Let God do what he thinks best" but the truth is he has no "determination" , "no passion" and "no love" for him to at least "KEEP ON TRYING TO BEG GOD FOR MERCY" and try his very best to fight till the end ...





we read these ... but have we too learn the lesson "never stop trying to ask God for our family salvation ?"

Crossing over

Joh 5:24  "I assure you, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life.

We have passed from death into life , do we have deep conviction about this ?

Do you wanna get well ?

John 5 : 1 ~ 8 , If I am lame for 38 years , either i become SOOOooo deperate to get heal or i look at a negative perspective ,"no way" ...

sometimes when we or our character are too negative and if we do not change , we cannot see God is offering help and we cannot hear what God is trying to say .

so today is your decision , do you want to get heal SPIRITUALLY ? then start to read God's word instead of complaining or mourning !

of course we may know that in our character , sometimes our upbringing and environment do effect us... something that we are learning more from

Schema therapy is an innovative psychotherapy developed by Dr. Jeffrey Young . 

stay tune for more about this... in spiritual perspective for schema ...
