sooooooooooooooo disappointing...

had 1) mid wk n 2) spent time w marilyn (watched e movie "Click") today, as part of e deep teaching series as usual, quiz....

1) e lesson,

i was quite confident n lookin 4wd to it coz last wk i had 5/7, prev wk i had oni 1/7.. repented + chapter2 is a topic i'm interested in.. laws n decrees - god noes better.
it's all abt health..
eg: - laws concerning leprosy = it's actually stated in e bible dat ppl w infection remains unclean = muz quarantine.. [leviticus 13:46]

- laws against touching e dead = after touching e dead or anyth dat has germs muz wash hands [ numbers 19:11-13, 19:17-19]

- laws commanding sanitation = muz haf specific place to relieve ourselves [ deut 23:12-13]

- laws to circumcise, the miracle 8th day = muz to cirumcise coz chances of getting urinary tract infection is 10X more n chances of getting AIDS is 8X more; oso tis muz b done on e 8th day of e new born coz new borns nd vit K for clotting factor in e bld.. n on e 8th day, e prothrombin level is e highest.. [gen17:12]

- laws against sexual immorality = juz 1 century ago (100yrs ago), 97.5% of brides n grooms had their first encounter during e 1st nite of marriage.. (Klassen, Williams, Levitt et al., 1989) [ hebrews 13:4] ;
if a man is burning w passion, he shld marry [1 Cor 7:9]

n many many more like laws against worrying [ matt6:25-34], even to anger [prov 29:11]; our anger most of e time is actually due to our EGO; when we'r tired, we tend to stop thinking n analysing.. [romans 12:3]..

so amazing at how relatable e bible is, n once again deepen my conviction on god's e maker of e world n it's literally e world = all mankind, man's brain, technology, germs, hygiene..

i could even memorise all e 3 memory scriptures [ deut 10:12-13, hebrews13:4, psalms 34:18].. i was encourged by my results last wk.. but to my surprise, i oni got 3/7.. so sad.. partly coz i couldnt understand wat e qn was asking, another reason is becoz i didnt study wat was asked..

wat was asked was deeper n more detail than wat i studied.. did i take e deep teaching series, god's words too lightly? i tink i did.. coz abt half of wat was asked was actually frm e New Testament which is e homework = quiet time series for e wk.. which i haven been doin consistently..

dat's so bad.. my relationship w god is kinda affected i tink, esp recently i started helping out at my fren's shop.. more n more projs.. i started to lose focus on him.. which is VERY VERY bad.. i noe it but i'm not doing anyth abt it.. leaving it getting worse, drifting further n further away frm him..

so selfish of me.. for all dat he has done, was juz to 've a relationship w us; to teach, rebuke, correct n train us to be a better person.. [2Tim 3:16] he set exact commands, standards for us in e bible.. all we need to do is to follow..
thou i struggled alot during e 1st n 3rd (today's lesson) chapter, one thing i managed to understand frm today's lesson is dat he wants to see unquestionable obedience..

gosh.. watelse can i say, we'r all sinners.. [romans 5:8], tis is smth we cant change, we'r one everyday except e fact dat when we accepted god n putting him first in in our life = getting baptized, our sins r all washed away BUT dat doesnt mean dat we dun nd repentance..

e very fact dat we'r aware of repentance, cant say "no" to it for we noe e consequences; sin seperates us frm god.. oso dat goes to show dat i'm taking god for granted..

i tink i really gotta start repenting.. god bless me w ur wisdom n strength.. repentance brings time of refreshing.. [acts 3:19]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2) oh ya.. abt e movie "Click"..
gosh.. it's such a nice movie.. movie w climax n really caught me off guard..

thou it's juz a movie, hey hey..
god's in e pic too..

lookin at how Adam Sandler neglect his family to wrk n earn more money; resort to doing things e easy way out caused him to missed every impt detail in his life..

one of which moved me was e part where he realised dat oni he's grown 10 or 20 yrs older, he missed his father's death.. w e "UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL" he has, he went back to e last time he met his dad.. lookin at how he IGNORE his dad n son, makes me think of my relationship w my dad..

frm dat part where he ignored his dad n hurt his dad by telling him dat he actually knew his "magic" trick all e yrs n his dad still tell him to take care n he loves him, i start crying non stop till e end..

gosh..

*cry* *cry* *cry* *cry* *cry* *cry*

haha marilyn oso cried!!! haha..

e scene where adam sandler bought a "female" dog for his pet dog, was so touching.. he was so determine to put family first, change his mistakes n priorities in life.. he nv forget abt getting a partner for e dog too.. BUT who noes, e dog he bought was another male dog too.. i tink e funny part abt tis scene is matching a bull dog w a i tink labrador.. hahahahahaha..

i'm gonna watch it again when e dvd is out.. can watch w felicia.. poor thing.. cant watch it coz tml still got last paper n today's e last day e movie is screening.. hee.. no worries ok.. i'll watch w u one.. ;)
