Starbucks Tumbler Design 1


Oh, yeah...in Korea I bought this tumbler which has a screw-cap at its base to allow me to slot in my own designs. I thought it was cool to put my graphic design skills back to play...haha.

So, this is what I've came up with. Used mainly Illustrator. Do expect more designs to come, as the heavenly Father pours out His inspiration into me. =)

You know...if you start to:
  • look beyond yourself,
  • claim authority from Jesus to rise above your circumstances,
  • view failure as stepping stones toward success,
  • have a vision worth dying for,
  • do things with passion and conviction,
  • correct your intentions and motives,
  • humble yourself,
  • be sensitive,
  • seek God with all you've got,
  • be still and wait upon Him,
  • make Him the first priority and not the last resort,
  • widen your perspective,
  • stand up for your faith,
  • etc...

...you'll start to live life differently. Very, very, very differently.

God is really real...

Yesterday during service, God spoke to me through the programme, the flow of events, the worship and a brother's testimony with regards to my previous blog entry "Bluntly Speaking 3".

A very long time ago, I was actually wondering if God is real, could He send me an SMS? But this time, He responded to my blog entry and I knew for certain that He's really real....as simple as that.

I myself can see and feel God working mightily and sovereignly in my life after I decided to make an intentional, conscious effort to seek Him with all I am.

Holding nothing back in our service, ministry and worship unto God is something which He desires.
  • I'm tired and sleepy, yet I choose to wake up early to pray.
  • We're doing our own things, chatting about stuff, yet we decided to stop everything to seek God.
  • I will normally go ahead with my work, but I stopped in my tracks to talk to God.
  • I choose to make it a point to pray.
  • I intentionally seek God, not due to events or circumstances.

13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29

Bluntly Speaking 3

It's the heart, not the song
===================

I'm simply tired and quite sick of the fact that you avoid some worship songs because you either don't like them or they're 'over-used' in certain context.

Well, let me tell you. It's the heart that matters, not the song. I'm sure you know that, but head knowledge is not enough. It's gotta be proven in your thought processing and actions.

And if you think that only certain formula or method or style is suitable to worship God, you're so wrong. If you think that this way works because you're comfortable with it, you're also wrong.

How much does your worship cost you? If it costs you nothing, then you won't be giving your best.

I've struggled with certain songs which I rather avoid, but if it's about God (and it should be), then so be it. I'm sick and tired of being stuck in programmes and structure that limit and constrict my freedom to worship God.

"If the Son has set you free, you are free indeed." How free are you? A lot? A little? Or you just don't wanna talk about it?

Programmes are fine, but if you're placing them higher in priority than God Himself, you better watch out.

I've enough of your bullshit.

I hate your ways, but I still love you. Sorry if I sound harsh, but this is something which I have to make a stand for. God deserves to be worshipped wholeheartedly. I'm just defending this.
