Free Will to choose

God created each of us with free will. He did not want us to be robot. We are free to choose but of course there is a consequence if we made bad choices. In the garden of Eden, he set the choices before men. The consequences of the choices are explained clearly to them. If he choose the tree of life, he will have everlasting life but if he choose the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, he will face the consequence of death. Everyday we are faced with choices to make. Sometimes we made some good choices and at time we made some bad choices.

As christian believers, we can override all the negative things Satan has planned for us by simply exercising our willpower to agree with God and His Word. Many times we choose to believe the lies of the enemy. We choose to believe that we are too insignificant for God to care. Thus we develop low self-esteem, unworthy and thus no confidence in whatever we do.

But if we choose to believe God's word, we can start to enjoy God's best for our life. In John 4:16 (New International Version) And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. We can trust God's love. He loves us with an everlasting love. We can take a step of faith and believe that we are valuable and God has a great future planned for us!!

New lawyer Darren Tan once spent 10 years in jail PUBLISHED IN ST ON AUG 25, 2014 11:47 AM

I love to hear testimonies of God's transforming works in a person's life. It encourages me & I hope when I post it here, it encourages you too! Mr Darren Tan with his proud parents - Mr Tan Chon Kiat and Madam Ong Ai Hock. The new lawyer changed the course of his life while he was behind bars. BY CHANG AI-LIEN SENIOR CORRESPONDENT Darren Tan, 35, is finally a full-fledged lawyer. He reached that milestone yesterday when he was called to the Bar during a mass ceremony at Nanyang Technological University. It was a far cry from his shaky start in life when drugs and gang activities led to over 10 years behind bars and 19 strokes of the cane. "This is the culmination of what I've been working towards for the last 10 years," he told The Sunday Times. "It's like waking up from a dream and finding out your dream has become reality." His life of crime began at the age of 14, and he was in and out of prison for offences that ...

Ego, a female feline - adoption & what to expect after that

My daughter adopted a kitten (2.5 months) from SPCA. We pay $65 to adopt her and this covers the cost of sterilisation, vaccination and microchipping. Initially she had spotted one that was cute but while we reached there, the kitten was already adopted by someone else. She decided to adopt the kitten which I found uncomely, didn't look cute at all. Furthermore she was a very active kitten and displayed alot of temperament, she meowed at you and tried to force open the cage. We were told that our whole family must be there to receive counselling before adoption can be made. I think the reason is to be realised by me later. It is a lifetime commitment with considerable responsibilities. A cat can live up to 20 years of age. Having a kitten is not easy. First of all, it is the droppings that we have to clear. She is a smart kitten, she knew how to use a cat litter tray. Each time she excretes, she will bury her droppings under the litter. No matter how she buried, the s...

This is the greenhouse also called a glasshouse or hothouse and is a building where plants are cultivated. From Wilkipedia: A greenhouse is a structure with a glass or plastic roof and frequently glass or plastic walls; it heats up because incoming solar radiation from the sun warms plants, soil, and other things inside the building faster than heat can escape the structure. Air warmed by the heat from hot interior surfaces is retained in the building by the roof and wall. These structures range in size from small sheds to very large buildings This is Butterhead lettuce. Their leaves are soft and pliable with loose heads. They can be made into drink....
