Righteousness




I never truly understood the value of righteousness and justice-until the events in Malaysia were made public

The powerful decked in extravagant luxuries, with nary a thought for the poor family who cannot afford to eat anything other than egg and rice
Those who take delight in throwing money at boutiques overseas (where one handbag costs at least RM 15000)-robbed from the people who struggle to make ends meet.
The corrupt who speak empty lies-throwing our medical system into disarray while flying overseas themselves least a headache comes around
Those who would kill-snuffle a life of a future father, breaking the hearts of his family-just to amass money they don't even need, to buy million dollar houses overseas, away from Malaysia.
The defenceless brave people who wore yellow, walking in peace only to be bombarred with acid gas.

The anguished cry for righteousness.....

Oh, how precious it is that my God, is a righteous God.

Psalm 9: 8 He rules the world in righteousness and judges the peoples with equity.

Psalm 7: 17 I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness;
I will sing the praises of the name of the LORD Most High.

A new horizon

(taken in IMU/vista where it was one of the great leaps growing in God....but yea, the best is yet to come!)

A hopeful realist

Looking forward to taking on a new job next year
Not because I know heaps (on the contrary-I know nothing!)
Not because I crave titles or achievements (rather be a housewife though that's up to God)
Not because I love exams
And frankly I feel unprepared and unqualified...

Yet I am excited because it's a chance for God to shine!
Haha
To show me that only through Him I can do it
A chance to depend on God more.
And a chance for me to know more about the enduring faithfulness of God
