timidity

There is too much “timidity” among Christians on every campus I visit. There is a fear of what others think…and it is justified by an “I don’t want to offend others” mentality. It is compromise. The national average of Christian’s on each university is 4% and more than 90% of those 4% come from Christian backgrounds.

In other words, Christians are mainly reaching Christians on campus. If we don’t see revival now, we will have a post-Christian generation tomorrow.

It’s time for radical Christianity…or should I say “normal Christianity” to be released on
this generation with power.

- Jaeson Ma

Sad reality. Do you believe in the faith you hold? Make a stand then.

starfish

Starfish Story

A wise man was walking along the beach one evening and saw a little boy throwing starfish that had been washed ashore by the tide into the sea.

He thought the boy was silly in trying to save the starfish, as he knew it was impossible to throw every single one of the starfish back into the sea, with the tides washing them up.

The man walked right up to the boy and asked him why he was trying to save the starfish. “You see sir; the starfish would die if they are left on the shore. They need to be in the sea in order to live,” answered the boy with all the innocence of a child.

“But son, how are you going to save all of them? Every time you put one back, another would be washed up. It doesn’t matter to them, son.” The boy picked up a starfish, looked at the man and said, “But sir, it matters to this one.”

After saying that, he threw the starfish back into the sea.

cure for something more

“If you found a cure for cancer, wouldn’t it be inconceivable to hide
it from the rest of mankind? How much more inconceivable to keep
silent the cure from the eternal wages of death.” — Dave Davidson

So lets not hide it under a rock, for we are the salt and light of this earth, called to go out and obey the great commission.

“The Great Commission is not an option to be considered; it is a command to
be obeyed” — Hudson Taylor

“He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain that which he
cannot lose” — Jim Eliot

prayer is like a sail

I met up with Alex Lam and he told me something really cool that deserves to be shared,

Prayer is like a sail.
The more you pray the bigger it gets!
Of course, you won’t move very fast with a small sail
for it only catches a little bit of wind,
But logic denotes that with a bigger sail,
you will catch more wind and move faster.
And God is like that wind that we’re trying to catch.
His wind is always there, always constant
Invisible, but flowing in our lives
But it’s up to us to pray and catch his wind in our sails.

Praying requires faith. And faith pleases God. And when we have faith in Him, God will invade our lives like a rushing wind.

Having a healthy prayer life makes all the difference in the world. I think I’ve posted like a million things about prayer over the last few months. Really when you find the time to pray and chat with our maker in Heaven, you’ll learn so much more.

So pray, pray and pray!
