Just when you thought you knew the Bible well....

Was just reading the manna book when....

you know how sometimes you've read the whole bible countless of times but then...when you read it once, suddenly you saw something that makes you wonder...

HOW COULD I HAVE MISSED THAT??????

John 6:16-21

When evening came, His disciples went down to the lake, where they got into a boat and set off across the lake for Capernaum. By now it was dark and Jesus had not yet joined them.

A strong wind was blowing and the waters grew rough.

When they had rowed three or three and a half miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on water and they were terrified.

(from LITV)- He said to them, 'I AM! Do not fear'

then they were willing to take Him into the boat, and IMMEDIATELY the boat REACHED the shore where they were heading.

well, i've previously thought that

whenever we're afraid or in trouble, Jesus appears. and at first we were afraid, not knowing we can trust Him. but then... His name is I AM after all.... I AM your healer, I AM your provider, I AM your helper, I AM .......

so then we realize that we can depend on Him. and He'll help us. but then.... I never realized that as soon as Jesus stepped into the boat, IMMEDIATELY they reached the place they wanted to go.

which was.... !!!!!

mind blowing!

lol. i dont know how i skipped that line....

its like as soon as you let Jesus into your life and let Him take control....... you'll know that you'll land at where you want to be.

so cool yea?


oh! watch this!!!
a kungfu film filmed using a phone. sooo freaking funny. lol

Heres to you guitar lovers

W'Sup,

Just wondering how many guitar players out there are feeling inferior to those of other instruments. Sometimes you see a master pianist just oozing those beautiful complete melody out of their piano keys all alone, but you look at a guitarist, and you find yourself needing a bass or drum accompaniment.

Well, if you're the kind who sometimes feel that way, or, if you like guitar and music, but don't have a singing voice, then Fingerpicking's your answer. If you haven't heard of fingerpicking style, then I'm sure you've heard of SungHa Jung, that young asian boy who got you clicking for more on YouTube. Its just simply playing the bass notes and the lead (melody) on the same instrument at the same time.

The main pioneer of the Fingerpicking style was Chet Atkins. He simply an amazing guitarist and one of the best in my books. Just shortly after Chet came on the scene, we have Jerry Reed who was at that time, the other person who could hold a candle to Chet. Both of them inspired countless guitarist. One of the leading fingerpicking players right now is Tommy Emmanuel from Australia.

Fingerpicking style has caught on to the current times and there are so many current songs that are being arranged to fingerpicking style. There are even Christian songs in fingerpicking style now. Learning these songs in this style will greatly increase your knowledge of your instrument, and yeah, be able to play and entertain all by yourself with no band or whatsoever required.

So buy yourself a thumb-pick and start picking away!
