Dear friends,
Hooray, tomorrow is my birthday. It really proves I am 12 years old. I really hate it when people say that I am not really 12 years old. I am so happy because I did my quiet time with God today this morning. I have not done my quiet time with God for a long time(to my shame) and I am really hoping that I can continue doing my quiet time with God every morning.
Even though I cannot see him with my eyes throughout my life on Earth, I can communicate with him. Like a 2 way conversation.

When I pray, I talk him.
When I read the bible, he talks to me. Not in those kind of talking but I can understand what he wants me to do.
Also I learnt some things during the youth fellowship. When I pray, I can pray according to ACTS.

A-Adoration
C-Confession
T-Thanksgiving
S-Supplication

Adoration means praising him, you cannot start a prayer just speaking straight. Of course not, this is one of the startings of a prayer(its all up to you),'' Dear mighty God,''.

Confession-Confession to sins. Confess the sins you have done, ask God to forgive you and repent.

Thanksgiving-Thank God for everything he had provided for you.

Supplication-Praying for yourself and others. Eg. One of your friends fell ill, pray for quick recovery.

Like that, it may seems very complicated and there is no need to be in that order.

The bible is like a book of instruction, teaching you what is right and what is wrong.

The bible is also like a answer to all your question. Like when you have a question, let us say eg. Can christians eat meat? Then you'll read the bible and search for the answer.

The bible is also like a book of records, it teaches us the mistakes of the godly people(they are human, of course they make mistakes.) and teaches us not to repeat the mistakes they make.

The bible also warns us the consequences of not believing in Jesus Christ. The 7 years of tribulation and evetually hell. It also show us examples of people who did not believe in christ. Also people who did not believe in Christ in the begginning and believed in him later on after being punished by God. Trust me, they had a good life from then.

For us, there is not later on believing in Christ after we die. After we die, even if we want to believe in Christ is of no use. Some people(in real life) who did not believe in Christ and sneer at him received punishment from God.

And I want to teach 1 thing to everybody, if somebody does you wrong, you must never fight back or insult him or do anything as for revenge. As justice is in God's hand. He will do the revenge for you. Even if he does not do it now, he will do it later. And if you notice that there does not seem to be anything bad to that person, it is OK. God will punish him eventually. Meanwhile, you should forgive and forget(even if he did not apologise). And for one more thing, it does not mean that person must be a he just because I kept writing he. That person also could be a she. I still hope that you can belive in Jesus Christ as soon as you can.

John 3:16-17(Above for you to read about the consequence of not believing in Christ and the pleasure you will enjoy in believing him)

May God bless you.
