D'accent@ Final Year Thesis

God is Faithful, God is Good!Hallelujay!!!

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
(Romans 8:28)


My thesis is actually doing about water quality in river and fishes. I was struggling and feeling scare of doing thesis. It seems like need a lot of knowledge and time to deal with it. Actually I plan to send my samples to my uncle's ChemLab because he said he ll run my analysis for FOC. Since i ll send all samples to him, it means i no need to order and purchase any instruments and chemical reagents for my water analysis. But, sadly, when he received my samples, he made a call to me and said, 'hey accent, I need to charge some fees from u due to the economic crisis' and he added that the price is already really far more cheaper than the market price, the total amount is around RM 800. At that time, I was so disappointed and feeling bad towards him, then of cause i rejected him. So, there is no other way for me to choose unless i do my water analysis by myself but there is another problem, i didn't order and purchase any chemical reagents, so how to run tests without chemical reagents???

I sincerely prayed to God and surrendered all of my worries to Him. Although i have a tough path to walk through but if i stronghold to God, He will cast my worries out and make me walk through it steadily. God is Faithful.During the period, i experienced and learned a lot. I truly thank God because my another course-mate who ran the same parameters with me, he got extra reagents and he gave all reagents to me. Besides, I have a good and knowledgeable Lab assistant, who taught me the procedures and prepared all kind of instruments and apparatus which i needed. Since I surrendered my thesis to Him, so i need not to worry about it anymore because God is Faithful, God is Mercy, God is kind, He is Holy one...Amen!!!

Through Him, I manage to finish my Lab-analysis, i done my water analysis and get the data. For now, Im going to start my new chapter, chapter 4, which is 2nd last chapter in my thesis and this chapter is the most difficult and most important chapter in a thesis. Anyway, I wont feel any worries because God is with me...Amen...!

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.
(Psalm 46:1-3)

A laugh, to be joyous, must flow from a joyous heart, for without kindness, there can be no true joy...



The brain is like a muscle. When it is in use we feel very good. Understanding is joyous...



Joyous distrust is a sign of health. Everything absolute belongs to pathology...

Footprints in the sand



One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along the path of his life, there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why, when I needed you most, you would leave me."

The Lord replied,
"My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints in the sand, it was then that I carried you."





You walked with me
Footprints in the sand
And helped me understand
Where I'm going

You walked with me
When I was all alone
With so much unknown
Along the way

And just when I
I thought I'd lost my way
You gave me strength to carry on
That's when I heard you say

I promise you
I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow
And despair

And I'll carry you
When you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
When I'm weary
Well I know you'll be there
Cause I can feel you
When you say

I promise you
I'm always there
When your heart is filled with sadness and despair
Oh, I'll carry you
When you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand

When your heart is full of sadness and despair
I'll carry you
When you need a friend

I promise you
I'm always there
When you need a friend
You'll find my footprints
In the sand

We must have faith in ourselves and what we can accomplish.
Then we can pass on this feeling of empowerment, enriching our lives and the lives of others as well.

Keep Our Lives Free From The Love Of Money

Before i start to share about this topic today, i would like to say that im super-duper weak christian in this particular area. In this year, 2009, it seems like people are suffering of economic crisis and it makes them never to miss a chance to gain more money to feed their wallet. The more money they gained, the more secure they owned. Some people told me that if you want to be secured and to be confident in this world, you have to be rich enough, so that you can speak confidently. It seems like funny and ridiculous theory that man gave me. Anyway, at that time, this 'theory' made a deep impact in my thinking system. The way i think already influenced by this stupid 'theory'. I turned to money-minded, no money then no talk, and if my wallet less than RM 50 then i will choose to be at home rather than go out with friends because of no confidence to step out from my house...Although Im a christian but i was doing some underground business which are illegal and dangerous business. Until God's warning came upon me last 2months before our Chinese New Year. If you re closed enough to me then you might know the incident...From that time onwards, i told to God for the Grace, i proclaimed that i will never touch this kind of UnGodly business anymore.Frankly speaking, you will only seek God when you have troubles.There is a turning point for me before Chinese New Year, really a breakthrough for me to give up all kinds of illegal stuff..God is Mercy, God is Good and God is Holy...Hallelujah...For the Sake of God's kingdom, im willing to surrender all of these to Him...

Hebrews 13:5 - Keep your lives free from love of money

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said,

"Never will I leave you;
never will I forsake you."

"...be content with what you have" - doesn't that sound strange in our consumer driven culture? We have created a co-dependence upon the latest model, the newest technology, or the most desired. Part of the economic crisis that we have created is based on people not buying unnecessary stuff anymore. Yet to tighten the belt economically and being free from the love of money are two different things. We can stop spending but still be consumed with our net worth. In other words, the love of money (whether we have it or not) can easily become a cheap imitation of the satisfaction that only God can give. The current economy becomes a brilliant litmus test of where our sense of well being comes from.


"Who is rich? He that is content. Who is that? Nobody."
Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790)

Thanks Giving to God

First of all, I would like to thank God for existing of www.blogger.com which had offered a place for people to share about what they want to share. For me, I ve no idea about what should I share but for equipping my writing skill in english, Im willing to pick up the challenge and spend a little of my time to stick with my laptop and write something which is meaningful to all people especially my friends who know me. So, i hope that you all can really get and learn something from my blog...Pray that God can speak to those whole view my blog and bless them abundantly. Amen!

Prov 3 : 9-10 : Honor the LORD with your wealth

Honor the LORD with your wealth,
with the firstfruits of all your crops;
then your barns will be filled to overflowing,
and your vats will brim over with new wine.



Bringing our ‘Firstfruits’ here means that bringing our offering which is valuable to us and normally it is money. Offering our tithe is just a way to honor Him, who is the Creator of all creatures. When we give tithe, we are actually proclaiming that He is LORD of all it. What a coincidence that for those who honor God from their wealth are usually found not to be in lack. According to Isa 44:2, “ Im your Creator, you were in my care even before you were born.”

He wants to bless His children, but He wants them to give that blessing back to him. Each tithe is a deathblow to the idolatry of materialism.
