We are all chess pieces of God's great big plan. Because He chose us first, we are part of the winning elect group. In Ephesians it says.. "for it is by grace we have been saved, through faith so that no one can boast."<br /><br />what i have learned on this journey with God is to be content... to not be of this world... you might wonder... how can we feel satisfied or content when there is sooo much more in life? and what have i learned? as it says in scripture, who are we to blame the creator for the way he has made us.<br /><br />Praise the Lord that all things are done in His will.. not ours.. and for His glory. Amen! God is good and there are still no word that can describe our Father as His mystery is unfathomable by the human mind! =) That is what makes Him God, and not us... and we know how flawed we are and have fallen short of His glory as no good thing comes from us, we were not seeking him first... every good thing comes from above, from our heavenly father.<br /><br />I am humbled that I am one of the elect! Praise the Lord!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21821881-114098790175318540?l=anitacheang.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Anitahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728053748328063989noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21821881.post-1138819688196881242006-02-01T10:33:00.000-08:002006-02-01T13:12:38.866-08:00When I look outside, and see nature, I wonder... how can people not see God? The mountains, lakes, trees, flowers... I am blown away by the details in every creation God has made. I am grateful that He has blessed not only us Christians, but nonbelievers as well... Everyone is able to enjoy nature, even if they are not sure where it comes from. I see how great God's love is for His children and those who are not a part of His family. If God's love can be big enough to bless those who have not found Him, can we even fathom how much God loves us and How much He wants to give us as we are His children?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21821881-113881968819688124?l=anitacheang.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Anitahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728053748328063989noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21821881.post-1138817521506401092006-02-01T10:10:00.000-08:002006-02-01T10:31:23.313-08:00Well, looks like I'll be writing my thoughts on life and what's going on in my life using blog spot as everyone else is! =) I don't know how this will turn out as I'm not usually a journal type of person. But ever since I've been reading the bible more, I guess I started writing out my thoughts and prayers so I guess this can't be too bad right? =P<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21821881-113881752150640109?l=anitacheang.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Anitahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04728053748328063989noreply@blogger.com2
