Starbucks Moments

Author: Theresa /

Today went to Starbucks, reason is there was electricity cut off this morning and so I decided to get out from my house and get to somewhere with WiFi. I choose Starbucks Warisan. Well it was a hot day and it's still am. I actually was considering library rather than Starbucks I guess is because in library is just too square for me.

I love to go Starbucks, not because of their coffee I think, I seldom take coffee now I guess that's because of my pass experience with coffee. I would prefer some fruit juice or just a cup of tea. Lemonade was my choice this morning. With my drink I settle myself in a corner with my laptop. I do not know what to expect from going to Starbucks. I wanted to go just so that I can be able to do my assignments. It turns out more than that=].

The main reason why I like Starbucks much is because of their service such wonderful worker they have. No matter what they are doing, they're always with their smile and great attitude. They are just so humble. As I sat down and do my stuff, around lunch time people started to come in. What a great place to hang out, I speak to myself. People with different purpose, different language, different culture, different cup of coffee. Everyone is talking about different stuff. Music, politics, latest news, work. I see joy, friendship, relationship and most of all love. To be able to get together with one another I take that as an act of your love towards others, friends, family, no matter who you are. A smile on my face, even tho I was doing my assignment. I'm just so blessed by this people around me. God shows me the hope for this world. People with different culture, different nation come together and sit under the same roof, sit together in one table. Awesome. I love people.

Another great thing about this Starbucks Warisan is the awesome view and the wind. Sitting inside being able to look tru to the outside of the building is just what I need when it comes to creaking my head for ideas. This great landscape with wind just bring me peace in within me. I really am loving this place. I told myself to return again more often. I'm pretty sure that night scene will be awesome too. Add on with the great music they always had, jazz and swing. Once again, blessed.

One great thing I found out is that I really enjoy spending time alone as much as I enjoy spending time with people around me=] Being able to spend some quality alone in Starbucks is just what I need sometimes. Even tho there's people in and out around me but this is a way that I can get myself on track sometimes. I know that this is another way that God will restore, refresh and repair me. I am once again so blessed by Him today. My love towards Him is just more than yesterday. Thank You Holy Spirit. My Lord. My Awesome God.

Psalm 85:6
"Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?"
Revive in Hebrew not only means "to restore and refresh" but also 'to repair."

This is how God have restore, refresh and repair me. I love You.=]

Blessing peeps.

Worst Curse

Author: Theresa /

Two days ago my neighbor and I realize that there was 2 kitten inside of her roof. We have been hearing kitten cries for a few days, but do not know where is it from. One jump down from the roof that day where leave the other one on the roof. We tried to rescue the other one but kitty just refuse to be saved. man...And so i bring home this lil kiddy and take care of him. This morning while I was still peacefully sleepin, suddenly I heard, "Theresa, Theresa" I was like...yes Lord?. Nah... Its my neighbor. She came over and tell me that the other kiddy just down from the roof and am now in her house. I, awaken with a dizzy head, went over and took lil kiddy. I was like, what on earth are they thinking?? Are they tired of life and wanna suicide?? Anyway, lil black in color kiddy was so weak and am still really weak. Just give her a bath and some milk. Now asleep. When I bring lil black kiddy back, the brown kiddy was so happy and they hug and say "family!" yea...that was my version nway. The first kiddy is brown, male. I name him lil Brown, so that when he's older he can goes with a cool name. hey, my name is Brown. haha! Second kiddy is black, female. Name, lil pretty. When she's older she goes, hey Im pretty. Cool har.


When I was walking back to my house with pretty, my neighbor with his finger pointing at me saying something, I didnt actually heard what he said I smile with a joyful heart because the kiddy is save and get into my house. After awhile I rush out again then he was doing the same thing! pointing at me and say something, once again I don't really know what is he talking about. I listen carefully. Oo then I realize that he was saying Im bringing back bad luck to my house. Chinese believes that cat are no good, they brings you bad luck especially black ones. Furny~ He won't stop saying that, and I told him, nah.. i don't believe in all those stuff. He still won't stop. I didn't talk to him much because I was really rushing to sent my sister to work, so all the while he
told me all those bad luck thingie, I just give him a smile that is not that joyful and with my head doing the disagreement sign, where your head goes left and right..? haha. I got into my car and started to pray. Breaking any curse or mindset or anything and speaking blessing for this uncle. I pray for protection upon my parents too, I'm sure uncle will be telling this story to my parents, we ARE neighbor.

You know, people always talk bout curse and stuff. How bad it is. Even the Bible talked bout it. Where is all this curse come from? Now I think the worse thing ever is our tongue. It is from the mouth of man comes with all this bad stuff. Not only man curse, they gossip and all those stuff. I mean the tongue can be the main root for sadness, stress, broken relationship, fight, or maybe even suicide? Just to let you know, the Bible said much bout the tongue of ours. James 3, its all
about tongue.
JAMES 3: 5-6
5
Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 6The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
-It might be little, but it got great power.


JAMES 3:9-10
9With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made
in God's likeness. 10Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be.

-A tongue that bless and praise Him shall not be cursing. These both don't come together.

We shall really be aware of what we're speaking. Some jokes are not mend to be joke.

Something else. You know, we try to share the good news of Christ to our friends and family, but sometimes it is just really hard. It's like how my neighbor and I tried to save this lil pretty on the roof, but she just refuse to be saved. Some people are just refuse to be saved no matter how much we try. The kitten just down was lil Brown. For some people, you just need to spend alil time with them and they are touched. Like lilPretty, some just need a longer time, when she decided to jump off the roof, that's when they're saved. It is all about God. We did our best, we tried to save this lilPretty, and in the end it is God. In His timing. Try our best and God will do the rest. One important thing, Prayer. Pray, pray, and pray. Even for lilBrown to come down, i've prayed for 2 to 3 days and for lilPretty to jump off the roof, another 3days. Praying might just take you 3days and it is done, some 3years or even 30 years?. God knows. Be courages my friend.

And so I told my hamster, you better be good, you're the brother to both of them, since my hamster born first. And I guess he goes......

ya ya.....go away....


Will upload some pictures of lilBrown and lilPretty soon.

I can't sleep. I guess I have my brain moving real much now and I'm suppose to wake up early later on to go to church. So I decided to share something awesome here.

I love God. I love the way He deal with me, the way He just amazed me. I am going tru a hard time now. This coming week is my presentation week and this week was not easy. I have to rush so many stuff this is because a few weeks before, my laptop and external hard disk was infected by virus and there goes my assignments, some. Then the problems of installing the softwares and stuff, that, delayed my assignments. So have to rush. It's actually not easy to rush, you have to think so much, have to just seek for ideas out of nowhere and my head feels like gonna explode! I really stress out. Really. I've never felt so stress ever.

Day by day as I think that I need to do my assignment, I just am tired just to think of it.I have to push myself. I stared to hunger for something. I do not know what. I wanted so much to talk to someone just to make myself feel better. Out of nowhere, the Holy Spirit I believe reminded me that only God can satisfy all my needs. instead of searching for man, I turn all the way up to God. It wasn't hard and long till I find myself worshiping and praising Him. There I find peace, joy and love and something else! ideas! just what I need. After that minute of spending time with Him, hanging out with Holy Spirit my buddy, I find that I hunger for more of Him every moment of my life, everyday I will just wanted to run towards Him no matter where I am. I guess He's the only reason I'm still doing what I'm doing now. Still holding on. He's my strength, my Love. The sudden of wanting to seek His Word, the sudden of wanting to cry, the sudden of taking up the guitar and praise and worship, praising and worshiping Him everyday, every moment. This is all because I hunger for more of Him. More and more of Him in my life. I am now hunger for even more. I love Him more than yesterday and less then tomorrow it shall be. Take me deeper Holy Spirit. Love is the only word I can describe of what is going on. I am not alone, He always understand me, going to Him is my choice from now on. Not because people tells me to but because I choose to. I am hungry for more of Him. Holy Spirit, I love You. To serve Him is what I wanted so much to do next and that is why I get so excited when yesterday comes. Saturday I will serve in Praise Kids and sunday which is today, will be serving in AL service as the PK team is leading the worship. awesome! I love Him.

To love Him more I choose to be. I'm so hungry for more of Him that I wanna be in His presence 24/7 and I am. The Holy Spirit is in me. Let me tell you something, from the moment you declare with your mouth that you want God to be your Savior and Lord, He gave you the Holy Spirit. Do not ignore Him. He is just like a friend who will hurt when you ignore Him and you might be missing something really important in your life.

Praise You my Lord, my Love
Awesome are You my wonderful Holy Spirit.
In You I rest,
With You I wanna be.
Praise You all my days,
Worship You I will be.
I love You more than anything.
I love You, I love You.


Psalms 145: 1-7
1I will exalt you, my God the King;
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
2 Everyday I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever.
3 Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;
his greatness no one can fathom.
4One generation shall will commend your
works to another;
they will tell of your mighty acts.
5They will speak of the glorious
splendor of your majesty,
and I will meditate on your
wonderful works.
6They will tell of the power of your
awesome works,
and I will proclaim your great deeds.
7They will celebrate your abundant
goodness
and joyfully sing of your
righteousness.

My heart, You.


Blessing.
