Quiet Time With God
Quiet Time With God
Bob Yong
One of the basic essentials of being the followers of Jesus Christ is to spend some quiet time with God. Much as we want to make time to meet with God, we often take the easier way out by allowing other priorities to take charge of us. To connect with God, we must find time daily, irrespective how busy we are. If we fail to keep appointment with God daily, we would not be able to hear His voice. Allotting a daily time of Bible reading and prayer is essential in one walk of faith. Singing songs of praise is another great way to be near and be with Him.
Time spent with God is time well spent.
God is the creator of the universe. He gave us the mountains, sea and the animals, including us so that we may live harmoniously and peacefully in His grace. It’s an awesome world with amazing grace.

It's More Than Just Being Lucky
It's more than just being lucky
Bob Yong
This was what happened on October 28, 2009.
Stepping out of a lift at a basement parking lot, I walked towards my car which was parked some 100 feet away. Suddenly, I noticed a MPV drove up and stopped in front of another car, a few feet away from us. A young woman rushed out of this MPV and headed straight towards another car parked close to mine. She got into her car (I presumed) and came out with a brick in her hand. On seeing this, the man hurriedly reversed his car in high speed; obviously he was trying to avoid being hit should the woman throw the brick at him.
At that time, I was about to cross to the other side of the path with my pet dog named Goldie in my left arm. I felt the MPV whisk-passed me, just missing us by an inch. As a result, the MPV brushed against my right arm and the wheels ran over the tip of my shoe.
Though we were not hurt, I was shocked and stood there motionless for a moment before realizing this was a near-missed. It could have turned out to be more serious than it looked. I could have been knocked down and killed or badly injured!
Looking back, I can conclude that the Lord was walking by my side on that day. He protected me and Goldie from harm.Praise the Lord.
Here is a gospel song “If the Lord wasn’t walking by my side” by Elvis Presley.
