Be still and know that He is God

"KUALA LUMPUR: The Metro Tabernacle Church in Desa Melawati here was damaged after a group of youths threw flammable materials into the ground floor of the church located in a shoplot.

No one was injured in the incident as the church was empty at that time.

It was believed the incident, which occurred at about 12.30am, happened after a group of youths on motorcycles rode up to the church, smashed the glass panels on the ground floor of the three-storey building and later threw some materials into the building that started a fire.

I woke up this morning and as usual log into my facebook account and was curious why were there so many of my Christian brothers and sisters stating in their status about some church being burnt and stuffs. At first I thought it happened in another country, later did I realize it happened here, in our once peaceful Malaysia.


Theres nothing more we can do but to pray for one another. I can still remember what uncle soon lim told us when we were in prayer meeting just now, ''The most interesting part after these incidents is what are our reactions as Christians towards this matter?''Where will our stand be? We shouldnt be pointing fingers at one and another but to pray for each other, that our Lord Jesus Christ will change their perceptions and work in them and reminding not only them,but us to accept each other the way we are.

Another thing is that we need to really Appreciate being able to worship freely here in Malaysia,wherelse Christians in other countries are being persecuted. We must not take our Oppurtunity or may I use another word, privillage vainly.We should in fact cherish them, cherish every moment of being able to sit around in a table having bible study together, singing praises together, and to even have fellowship mixing around with one and another sharing jokes and encouraging each other.

I do pray that after experiencing such tragedy, we should be strong and be bold in Christ and therefore pray for one and another.

Matt 5:44
"But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you"

A simple song that I would love to share with everyone.=)

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is holy
Be still, O restless soul of mine
Bow before the Prince of peace
Let the noise and clamor cease

Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is faithful
Consider all that He has done
Stand in awe and be amazed
And know that He will never change
Be still
Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know He is our Father
Come rest your head upon His breast
Listen to the rhythm of His unfailing heart of love
Beating for His little ones
Calling each of us to come
Be still, Be still
