Reflections: Turning To God

Thank God for the blessings we have. Pray for peace.  Turn to God  - even in the darkest hour.

Reflections: Are All Our Dreams From God?

Not all our dreams are from God. The ones that lead us away from God are usually not from God. So sometimes we do need to take our dreams with a pinch of salt. Yet we do need to reflect on some dreams as they do teach us something sometimes. For example the other day I had  a dream of eating cheaper ice cream, so I went out to buy some-  and guess what - the cheaper ice cream tasted just as good as the expensive one that I had been eating. (update:16-4-2014 -  well this does not  apply to all ice creams as the latest  chocolate ice cream I ate  at Baskin Robbins is probably the best which can be quite expensive)

So what about the  dreams that are  not from God? Sometimes those dreams could mean that there is an underlying weakness somewhere or they could be just junk or spam! Just like in life -some of the things that people say or do may not be of any help - so we got to treat  those   as spam!  So we should not follow those dreams.

The dreams that are repeated may have a better chance of coming true. Dreams will be dreams  but  the ones that come from God usually  teach us something and help us to become better people. Don't eat too much ice cream though.

Reflections: Mixing With The Wrong Crowd

Mixing with the wrong crowd can get us in trouble. Sounds familiar but it is something to reflect on.

Reflections : Almost Like Fighting A Devil

Getting rid of bad habits can be almost like fighting a devil. When I gave this advice to one of my  friends, he did not seem too happy about it- these days people don't like to listen to my advice much. However I found this philosophy to be helpful to me as it made me realise the enormity of the task ahead.
