We will keep in case we could use its parts as spares for other electrical equipment that breaks down. So we keep screws, wires, cables etc to the extent space permits. However for pottery and cookery, ifContinue reading “Broken Pottery”

https://odb.org/MY/2021/12/16/what-are-you Born, raised and growing up in Malaysia, most if not all of us would have experienced some form of racism as minorities. In fact, Malaysia is well known for her institutionalised racial discrimination that every Malaysian knows that if a level playing field was established in all economic sectors, we could at least beContinue reading “Racism”

https://odb.org/MY/2021/12/13/a-worthwhile-wait I think this is one of the major issues those of us in the faith always face – how do we trust God to do what’s best for us? As humans, we have a tendency to take things into our own hands. We are impatient. We want fast resolution. Even in counselling people, weContinue reading “Where Does My Help Come From?”

https://odb.org/MY/2021/12/12/heroes-tyrants-and-jesus I recently heard someone say that Paul’s story is second only to the story he told, the story of his Jesus and Him crucified.

https://odb.org/MY/2021/12/03/truth-and-tiaras The catch phrase today is really since we are children of God, then we need to act as children of God. John was very clear in 1 John 2 that if we are children of God, we will not continue to sin because Jesus came to take away our sins. In Jesus there isContinue reading “Children of God”

https://odb.org/MY/2021/12/02/celebrating-diversity It is ironical that as stated in the story on the Tower of Babel in Genesis 11 that God scattered humans and confounded their language, that we are now trying to unite peoples of diverse creed, colour and language in the church as well as out of the church.
