"A different lover is not a sin Believe capital H-I-M" - Born This Way by Lady Gaga

I've heard of Lady Gaga for quite awhile now.
I know she's a hit in youtube, her songs are awesome
and she's kinda weird .
***clap! clap! clap!
but too bad, she isn't one of my interests in the music scene.
She is just maybe cool, popular and that's it.

But today, Lady Gaga has finally caught my attention thru her latest
hit "Born This Way". I decided to watch the "Born This Way" mtv which
was on my facebook newsfeed awhile ago...and hey..
Did I hear it right??
because she has mentioned "God" in this song.. I played the video again and
again just to hear her say, " capital H-I-M" ...and I thought, it could be HIM!

 She's talking about God in this song! It's like a worship song in a different way.

ok, so I wanted to confirm it and quickly googled for the lyrics.

Voilaaaaa!

Yep. yep. yep. I was right.

It's in the lyrics..CONFIRMED.. It's HIM! The capital H-I-M!

This video made me smile and I can feel and tell there's a lesson in here somewhere.
... You just need to open your heart a bit ..

C'mon!

Enjoy the video...Sing along with it because I have included the lyrics below.:)






It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M 
Just put your paws up 
'Cause you were born this way, baby 

My mama told me when I was young 
We're all born superstars 
She rolled my hair, put my lipstick on 
In the glass of her boudoir 

"There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are" 
She said, "'Cause He made you perfect, babe" 
"So hold your head up, girl and you you'll go far, 
Listen to me when I say" 

I'm beautiful in my way, 
'Cause God makes no mistakes 
I'm on the right track, baby 
I was born this way 

Don't hide yourself in regret, 
Just love yourself and you're set 
I'm on the right track, baby 
I was born this way 
(Born this way) 

Ooo, there ain't no other way 
Baby, I was born this way 
Baby, I was born this way 
(Born this way) 
Ooo, there ain't other way 
Baby, I was born this way 
I'm on the right track, baby 
I was born this way 

Don't be a drag, just be a queen 
Don't be a drag, just be a queen 
Don't be a drag, just be a queen 
Don't be! 

Give yourself prudence and love your friends 
Subway kid, rejoice the truth 
In the religion of the insecure 
I must be myself, respect my youth 

A different lover is not a sin 
Believe capital H-I-M (hey, hey, hey) 
I love my life, I love this record and 
Mi amore vole fe yah 

I'm beautiful in my way, 
'Cause God makes no mistakes 
I'm on the right track, baby 
I was born this way 

Don't hide yourself in regret, 
Just love yourself and you're set 
I'm on the right track, baby 
I was born this way 

Ooo, there ain't no other way 

[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/born-this-way-lyrics-lady-gaga.html ]

Baby, I was born this way 
Baby, I was born this way 
(Born this way ) 
Ooo, there ain't other way 
Baby, I was born way 
I'm on the right track, baby 
I was born this way 

( Queen , 
Don't be , Queen ) 

Don't be a drag, just be a queen 
Whether you're broke or evergreen 
You're black, white, beige, chola descent 
You're Lebanese, you're orient 
Whether life's disabilities 
Left you outcast, bullied or teased 
Rejoice and love yourself today

Baby, I was born this way 
(Born this way ) 
Ooo, there ain't other way 
Baby, I was born this way 
I'm on the right track, baby 
I was born this way

God Has A Plan For You!

Sometimes, you feel down.

Mixed- feelings of confusions, fears, depression and frustrations brought about

by external events of your life attack you

and then lead you to ask yourself this question, " Am I believing the right thing? or person?"

Let me answer your question.


If you believe in God. I say, YES! DEFINITELY, You are believing the right person.

If you believe in Jesus as your savior, I say YES again! Because Jesus is your SAVIOR as written in the
Bible.

So keep holding on and stop entertaining your negative thoughts and emotions.

Listen to praise songs like the  one I'm watching right now --->ONE WAY JESUS by HillsongUnited

For SURELY, you are on the right track with Jesus!

Things that you wish or want to happen may haven't manifest yet , I say, be patient
and enjoy the bumpy ride. Because God never promises a smooth journey, but He promises a safe landing.

Don't ask too many questions now. because it's a trap!

Just say, " Thank you Jesus, for keeping me...Thank you Jesus for saving me from these unhealthy, negative thoughts."

One more thing, you need to write this down again, and read it everytime
you doubt in God's plans for you.

One of my faves.:)

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD,


 “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give 


you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come 


and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me 


and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” 




(Jeremiah 29:11-13) 






Beauuuuutiful right??


TGIF everyone!

Prayer of Protection

Let us all pray for the people and victims in New Zealand, ChristChurch's earthquake Beloveds.


We are BLESSED because we are here, online, blogging , facebooking or twittering whilst the other
poor souls outhere are fighting for their lives in different calamities like floods , terrorism, tsunamis and earthquakes.




Let's pause for a moment. 


Close your eyes now and just say a simple prayer for them.


 D E E P       S I L E N C E.










------------------
There you go.
Take a deep breathe.






------------------


I actually spoke in tongues with the Children of God in mind. 


When situations like these gives fear in your heart.. I say, "BE STILL". 


Because we have our Abba's promises of protection written in the Book of Life!


Keep this verse in your pocket. Write it in your notes where you can look or read through it anytime, everyday.


Memorize it.

"The LORD is my light and my salvation; I will fear no one. The LORD protects me from all danger; I will never be afraid. "

-Psalm 27:1.

I have created an artwork for this so if you have the chance, you can print it out yourself.

Can you stand above your problems?? (con't)

Ok. I'm back!

Are you still there?

Hope so.. :)

Anyways, I just had some cool revelations this afternoon.
Now, I'm gona continue this topic with a simple illustration
I created while taking my lunch.
Please a look closely in my drawing.






As you can see, someone is standing above the bubbles of career stress, fears, big problems, debts, small problems, wrong thoughts, health problems, relationship problems confusions, and the list would go on.

Like I said, anything can be a problem as long as it makes you feel uncomfortable for a long period of time. Because that in effect will eventually
result to stress, highblood pressure if ignored...then you will have health problem.
Still a problem, right?

The man above it all, lets assume that it will be YOU!

Wooow!

Yes! You are standing above your problems now dude!

Halleluyaaah!

Now.

because I've demonstrated it as a bubble in time, I wana point out that it would become shaky, and there will be unpredictable movements from time to time that it will lead you to lose your balance.

Now to sustain your strength above it?




You might say, "we must try hard to keep the balance...
and spend all our strength to stop the movements!"
(the shaking I meant is when problems attack you)

I say, my friend, you don't need to do all those things.

That is so exhausting!

My advice is....

Just REST.

When you're drowning, it's safier to just lie on your back and rest on the water than struggling to make it above the water.

Just rest...

How to rest?

Simple.

Just call unto Jesus, shout His name and say,

"Jesuuuuuuuus! I am tired of all these and I want to rest!
Please come into my life ....control it the way you like it
so I can rest!

Lead me to Your peace and everlasting joy, Jesus!

I'm so tired of believing the wrong thing and now I want to make it
victorious with You on my side..

Thank you for loving and dying for me....amen!"

Woooooow!

Beautiful words, aren't they?

Makes me smile..:) really.


(breathe in.......breathe out)

Oopps...

Ok, I'm not sure if I'm going to have part 3 on this..

Stay tuned.
Or you can throw in some questions ..

:)

Can you stand above your problems??

Circumstances may appear to wreck our lives and God's plans, but God is not helpless among the ruins. God's love is still working. He comes in and takes the calamity and uses it victoriously, working out His wonderful plan of love. - Eric Liddel


-------
Imagine a life where there's no problem.
It's a cool thought right?

Life here on earth with
a problem to solve is "normal"..It's an everyday thing,
One courageous encounter.

We live to breathe problems. ( but don't agree with me yet.)

You know, I was almost going to accept that fact.
But fact changes.

Deep within me, something was uncomfortable and I
could feel it was shaking the entire me, ALL OF ME!
---- shouting at the very depths of my soul,

When it finally caught my attention, I heard it said,
"Life is not meant to live with problems!!"

The world can try to talk you out that, it's ok to have problems
and just leave you somewhere in your messed up lives wonderin
for awhile and maybe forever.

If your bestfriend will comfort you with words like,
" I also go through the same things that you are in right now. It's ok.
There's always tomorrow. Everything will be alright."

I bet! You'd be just listening to him with a blank, frozen face,
still sobbing and full of fears and tears ..

You try to hide in your confused mind. Nodding, just to pretend
it's going to be ok.

But guess what,
problems may be resolved now, but believe me, another problem will surfice
again not maybe tomorrow but the next day.

It's a cycle.

It's a loop.


No, I am not being negative.
Look around you. It's happening everyday!

You gotta wake up!
Only movies got a happy ending!

( but dont believe me just yet. I'm almost there)


In the dictionary,

Noun: Problem
1. a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved


I hope you really are following me, because I accept I am not a good writer.


Pause...

Ok, example.

Right now, as I'm writing this blog, I have a problem.
I know, you too have a problem because you found yourself
in my blog while searching for something on the internet, right?

Small, little things in our mind that make us uncomfortable,
I consider it as a "problem".

Going back from what I said that I have a problem..

I am reaching in my forties and as I evaluate myself , on that age
without having my own car, home, savings or any other property
is for me quite a problem.

Steve Jobs- a technology icon with billions and billions in his bank account still got a problem..reaaaally big problem because his health is deteriorating..

A poor man's wish-- " I wished I have all the money to solve all this problems" stands to be useless when I feel and know that Steve Job's only wish right now is to be healed!

You see, problems are everywhere!

But do you know the TRUTH that you can stand above your probems??

Yes. It is possible!

It's happening to me and I'm gona share it with you today..


But oops...it's 12.17noon ..it's lunchtime and I'm quite hungry.
Hold on will be back after lunch.

Told you, I am not a good writer and Im no way fast so please you need to bear with me.

Thank you and BRB....

Life Above The Sun by Joseph Prince

Life Above The Sun by Joseph Prince

John 10:10
10… I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

When you are not enjoying abundant life, you will feel as if life is full of toil. In your heart, life is meaningless and empty. You feel like someone “grasping for the wind”. (Ecclesiastes 2:11)

It seems as if nothing you do adds up to much. The Bible calls this life “under the sun”. (Ecclesiastes 2:11) Someone who lives life under the sun may or may not know God, but God is either forgotten or not the center of things in his life. His thoughts are earthly and he does things to gratify his flesh. In the end, he finds life depressing and unfulfilled. Life under the sun is full of despair.

But this is not so with someone who lives life above the sun with God. For life with Him is filled with joy and pleasures at His right hand. (Psalm 16:11) Life is abundantly full and good just as Jesus promised — “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly”.

When you live life above the sun, your thoughts are heavenward and you become Christ-occupied. You live for Him because you know that all things were created through Him and for Him. (Colossians 1:16) When you live for His glory, your life takes on a new meaning and purpose.

God’s Word says, “And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.” (Colossians 1:17) The Greek word for “consist” means “held together”. In Christ, all things are held together. And that is why when Christ is the central figure in your life, you will have it all together. Your mind will be held together. Your hopes and dreams will be held together. Your family will be held together by the cords of His love.

Your life will not be empty, but full of God’s goodness because “Christ in you, [is] the hope of glory”. (Colossians 1:27) It is a wonderful life — this life lived above the sun. And you will have an even more wonderful life to come in heaven!
