21 Feb, we drove through the Malaysia checkpoint in second link as we come back from our CNY break. As Ong greeted the officer and handed our passports to him, he said, "Selamat Tahun Baru. Ada angpow ah?" All of us was stunned that the officer was so bold and outright in asking for $$...
Though he may said in almost like a teasing manner, I am sure that he meant what he asked for. Imagine how much of ang pow he will collect if he asked that for every car that pass through .... this is CNY and the traffic that comes through is at its peak!
This is just a tiny glimpse of the ugly reality and the dark truth of the system in our nation ...in fact evil deeds and injustice in the system that is supposedly to govern and protect us had been exposed .... too many cases to quote ....
What are we going to do about it? I
f we love our land and want a better future for our next generation, let's get on our knees to stand in the gap for our land - for God to visit our Land with justice and righteousness ... let it come like a rolling river! ( Amos 5:24)Time has come --- time has come for us come on bended knees in unity rising the harp and bowl for our nation. ("Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints" ... Rev 5:8b) Let there be a roar of rushing waters and like a loud peal of thunder .... for God to intervene and bring justice to our land
Let's flood our nation with intercession and tears ---- till it burst and flood our nation .... till breakthrough comes ... and Jesus to shine through our nation! May this song be on our lips and cry for our hearts daily till He comes ... bringing grace, mercy, justice ... and for His glory to shine in our nation!
Lord the Light of Your Love is shining,
In the midst of the darkness shining,
Jesus light of the world shine upon us,
Set us free by the truth You now bring us,
Shine on me. Shine on me.
Shine Jesus shine
Fill this land with the Father's glory
Blaze, Spirit blaze,
Set our hearts on fire
Flow, river flow
Flood the nations with grace and mercy
Send forth Your word
Lord and let there be light.
Lord I come to Your awesome presence,
From the shadows into Your radiance,
By the blood I may enter Your brightness,
Search me, try me, consume all my darkness,
Shine on me. Shine on me.
As we gaze on Your kindly brightness.
So our faces display Your likeness.
Ever changing from glory to glory,
Mirrored here may our lives tell Your story.
Shine on me. Shine on me.
Calling our all Malaysians ---- If we do not love our nation enough to pray for our land... who then will? Who can God use? How then can God move in our land?
