God Can!!!

2009 has been an awesome year to me. Its only less than 2 more months, we're gonna welcome 2010. Best is yet to come, Greater things are yet to be done.

I know it is too early for me to write this post.

But I am getting excited as I preparing for next year since after i came back from my personal retreat. I am excited to see things are working after I have invested all my times and efforts since the last few years.

As God has called me with the open doors and given me the passion. I am going to hold few major positions next year in church and market place. I had a meeting with my leaders, cast out the visions and direction for next year. They have really grown up in humility and leadership. I believe in them and I know that they are rising up to be the man of God. I am so proud of them.

However, as i continue preparing and adjusting myself for the few new positions. I finally feel the challenge. In fact, I am facing few challenges now. Sometimes, I gonna ask "is that all?" and shout all my heart out "BRING IT ON"!!! Sometimes, its really bother me.

Today, I just gonna remind myself that "I do not have all the Answers". I am LIMITED.

But God says to me "You will face challenges and trials! But take courage my son. Do not be afraid. For I am with you, partnering with you to the things I have called you to do. I will Never Leave You nor Forsake You".

I may be cant. But GOD CAN!!!

We can do all things through Christ who strengthen us.

BRING IT ON!!! :)

Price to pay

After a long time.

Finally, I have the privilege to hear my uncle (Ps Charlie) preached again last Sat. The sermon was good. Uncle Vinsky told me that his preaching has rise up to another level since the last time he heard him preached in Church (SIBKL) few years back. And I absolutely agree with him. I hope I can preach like him one day.

Ps Charlie was sharing about his testimony, how did he came to know Jesus, his suffers of poverty in his childhood, how he found his security in God, and his fear for God.

His fear for God of punishments and judgment of wrong doing, its an wake up message to me. Whoever does wrong deserve punishment and judgment.

There is a PRICE TO PAY.

I finally realized that I'm paying the price of my mistake instead asking God why putting me in such a position/situation or looking out the window find someone to blame. I am just gonna deal with myself and allow God to correct me and mold me in the mess.

AND i shall give thanks to the LORD for He is Good. His love endures forever

Ephesians 2:3-5 tell us that "All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved."

• Mercy is not getting what you do deserve / withheld punishment
• Grace is getting what you don't deserve / unmerited favor

His grace is sufficient for us, for his power is made perfect in our weakness.

We shall fix our eyes and focus on God. Not the problems. There is no problem too big for God to fix.

The devil came to kill, steal and destroy but Jesus came to revive, redeem and restore.

We do not deserve, but with his unconditional love for us, he sacrificed his life and paid the price on that Cross for our sins/my sins as a ransom of our lives/my life.




If you are not safe by God' grace today, I pray that you will come to know my friend (Jesus) one day. John 3:16

DanLo's Retreat 09

I thank God for a blessed, safe and fruitful trip. I do my personal retreat once in every year since after i graduated 2 years ago. Last year, I went up to one of the mountain in Malaysia . I took my guitar, journal book, bible, and laptop and went up with my car.

However, this year, I have decided to backpack one of the state in Malaysia. Merely travel based on public transport. Because of that, I did not bring my guitar and laptop. But I got my DSLR camera, a book (The Journey by Billy Graham from uncle and aunt for my baptism's gift) and new journal book along with me. I was looking for a place surrounds with Malays and a nice beach.

KUANTAN.

I had a great time with God.

• Taking a Break from a normal routine.
• Do my personal reflection (my past successes, failures, mistakes and etc)
• Planning for next year direction,what's next coming and the future.
• Planning for ministries.
• Re-prioritize my focus and schedule.
• Being silent and have Heart to heart talk with God.

Time passed very fast for 3 days.



Walk with HIM!!!

Jesus is all I need

Im nothing without God.

Jesus is all I need.

i feel like doing this...

Thank God for today. it's 6.45am now. God woke me up. i know im gonna do this. sharing my journey...........

Life is getting busy and Im pretty much enjoying busy. I love doing and working on whatever am doing at the moment. Through study occupies most of my time, and I have sacrificed a lots for it. I know that this is what God wants me to focus on my study and nothing else for this moment or this year. I am patiently to look forward and achieve those I am most desire and wanting for after I am graduated end of this year (Wife is one of my most desire gift of my life).

I am studying in an IT college, through its kind of challenging and I always have to put my self on cracking my head to solve problem (any technical, programming), but I enjoy most of the time. The best feeling or satisfaction is every moment after I solve a problem on my own solution. I am doing BSc (honors) in Computing course. I am pretty enjoying my course, my college, my friends, my lecturers and the environment. Many people comment that IT/Computing courses are one of those tough courses around.

Indeed. But Answer can be Yes and No.

I would say its all depends on how you see yourself dealing with it and most important is your interest. If you know me well, I am actually a very business minded person and I have a very big dream to achieve. And I love my dream; my passion grows each day when I wake up in the morning. I am thanking God for laying such a dream and purpose for my life. And he helps me to discover my gifts, teaching me, talking to me, show me my paths, prepare many great mentors to guide me in many areas to equip me, so I can serve in his kingdom and each others. Yet my passion is not IT, but is BUSINESS. Many people have wonder why I am studying IT yet not a BUSINESS course after knowing me have such a big interest in Business and follow up with a question was I chosen a wrong course.

My answers would be “Why you choose to study some thing that you are already good at it?”, “Nope, I have my own plan”

God is always faithful, he provides you the gifts as well as needs to achieve the dreams and the purpose of your life. I have reasons to choose IT as my sub skill/knowledge few years back instead of others course (long to share, probably will be topic in future). Yes, I had thought of studying psychology as well. And in God’s perfect plan, he had chosen IT course for me, and located me in one of best IT College (APIIT) in Malaysia. So I forecast and analyze the future needs, I know IT is going help my business to be more outstanding and no doubt its one of the largest industry in this generation. My business’s passion grows my interest in IT, and it’s equipping me a problem solving mindset for many business problems may face in the future. And now, Im good at both Business and IT.

I read many business books in areas such as leadership, management, marketing, entreprenuership, internet business, financial and etc. I luv it. I had dealt with number of freelance projects in the past, one of the biggest and most experience was a project involved network implementation in my fren's dad issurance company (ING). I led my team, get the job done, left that place with cash. Last year, i was leading a team on a small internet business. we had learned so much and all. we are excited to see the revenue grow each day. Business is all bout pratical and it must involve pratices. you learn most from your failures not so on your success. John c Maxwell, stated in his book that the ratio of a success is 1:7 failure. in another word, most successful ppl experience average of 7 times failures before meeting the great success. Failure is the best teacher. Appreciate it.

If you always have a plan along your journey, I am glad for you. If you make your stand and follow your plan, I am proud of you.

Never follow the crowd. There are no 2 Bill gates in this world. Practice your rights to be unique.Yeah. Here is my Blogging journey started again. And is my honor privilege to share every single bit of my life to everyone in this planet.

Jesus luv you,

danLo

danLo @2005

tik tok...tik tok... tik tok! shh...times flies! an eye blink, is end of the yr 2005 today! so fast...i miss lot of stuff + the happiness + the sorrow + the achievements + the failures + the mistakes + the overcome... everything will be archived into my memory rite now...

It has been an awesome year 2005,mayb i shud say the best yr of my life... its relly grows me so much in my character,personality,maturity thinking and all... year 2005 is one of the most bz yr for me, mayb i had taken up lot of position however i had gain so much(more than i expected)

1) leadership skill... playing a role as a leader is not an easy yet not that difficult, it juz another role in a team...it's very challenging, leader has to be there to control the enviroment always ,make a solid plan for the project and back-up plan base on different circumstances, hav to understand member's personality,interest,strong skill,weaknesses and personal problem time to time...always draw them a picture of ur plan... team motivation is important,in order to optimise resources(members contribution)... recipe of being good leader for me are : good analytical skill,logical thinking,critical thinking (far beyond ppl can think of),understandable of human mindset(psychologic),problem solving skill,always do analyze self weaknesses inorder to grow urself n grow/influence other eventually u will discover something which is much more valueble... brainstorming meeting is one of the best thing to explore more idea...pretty nice + funny wif ridiculous idea(very innovative,pretty cool), read more leadership book,listen to wat other leader style may suit u...and u can try apply to ur role(would be a pretty cool stuff to do)...yeah,overall it's all bout teamwork+strategy to achieve the excellent output!

2)business minded... it was started on june of 2005! juz felt that it was the time for me to start improve my business skill+gain experience and mayb do some small business..started with reading lot of books,acticle, marketing survey,talking to business minded ppl...God relly awesome, he totally understand my needs...and always answer my prayer at the rite time... one of my aunty had open up a discussion upon a business plan(bout IT sector,good business plan + profitable + demanding) wif me at the end of june(kind of surprise).. it was relly a good motivation...with the trust toward me, and dat large amount of money to invest on me.. unfortunately not a rite timing,the project just need so much time n effort to contribute for me yet i hav to concentrate on my study at the moment therefore my aunty ask me to back to them when im ready... two month ago,i received a call from Jason... he ask me to particate in the HSBC young entrepreneur award...wow,this competition was full with challenges...started wif cracking a unique innovative and cretive business idea (is absolutely not ez) rite till the business marketing strategy,implementation upon the business product n service...is not as easy at the begining as i thought..it;s relly full with challenge however i hav learn so much on the journey so far...the business workshop which i attended,public speaking skill...attend interview fr reporters,experience was brand new and reality...im really glad to enter round two... i hope will be all the best us for the next round rite to the final... here the entrepreneur mindset started!

3)IT skill... improvement upon IT skill was juz slow down slightly...mayb i was too bz with other things or i had learn most things i wanted! pretty awesome i had capture most of the famous +realiable hot programming language; C, VB, Java, .ASP, .PHP...i hav a whole picture of program development, from system design to implementation phase and improve lot of logical thinking... it makes no problem for me to develope an application rite now... webpage programming is simply great skill inorder set up a terminal on the internet wif the low capital to run a business, a media medium to provide information... since i was left my position as a Software department manager, i tot would be a great impact for me in software deployment fields n software update...well, team members were frequently approached me while they were facing difficuties in software+server+pc configuration wise..im pretty glad to be there provide necessary guidance for them ,discover solution together wif them...the more i teach and share the deeper i learn and explore... and rite now...i m involving in the webgame developement,was pretty brand new for me during the starting... my team(peter,gan,vasan,giap) had develope a webgame using .asp on last 2 months...originally wif our own game concept,theme design,database design...ohh ya,another project rite now...everything will keep as P n C rite until it launch next yr.
