A Humble and Teachable Heart
“Then Job answered Yahweh, “I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be restrained. You asked, ‘Who is this who hides counsel without knowledge?’ therefore I have uttered that which I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I didn’t know. You said, ‘Listen, now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you will answer me.’ I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you. Therefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.”” (Job 42:1-6 WEB)
People tend to speak carelessly as if they know everything, but a lot of what they say is based on assumptions and vain imaginations of the mind.
When God shows up to question you, you will realize that you know almost nothing.
Don’t utter so much nonsense until God has to appear and deflate that harmful pride.
“But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he doesn’t yet know as he ought to know. But if anyone loves God, the same is known by him.” (1 Corinthians 8:2-3 WEB)
The truth is that we know so little—not even scraping the surface of God’s infinite wisdom.
There is still much more depth to what you think you know very well.
“At the end of twelve months he was walking in the royal palace of Babylon. The king spoke and said, Is not this great Babylon, which I have built for the royal dwelling place, by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty? While the word was in the king’s mouth, a voice came from the sky, saying, “O king Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: The kingdom has departed from you. You shall be driven from men; and your dwelling shall be with the animals of the field. You shall be made to eat grass as oxen. Seven times shall pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever he will.” This was fulfilled the same hour on Nebuchadnezzar. He was driven from men, and ate grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the sky, until his hair had grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails like birds’ claws. At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honored him who lives forever; for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom from generation to generation. All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he does according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and no one can stop his hand, or ask him, What are you doing? At the same time my understanding returned to me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and brightness returned to me; and my counselors and my lords sought to me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent greatness was added to me. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven; for all his works are truth, and his ways justice; and those who walk in pride he is able to abase.” (Daniel 4:29-37 WEB)
When Nebuchadnezzar credited the glory of Babylon to his own might, the kingdom departed from him. Nebuchadnezzar became a madman, and lived in the field for seven years like an animal. His hair and nails grew long like a beast.
After that, the kingdom returned to him, and he was utterly humbled. He became a believer who gave praise and glory to Yahweh.
Glorify God and ask for His wisdom. Stay humble and teachable no matter what. Be slow to speak, and patient to listen. This way, you will avoid unnecessary hard falls and enjoy a blessed, fulfilling life. The wicked and foolish rush straight into destruction, but those who trust in the Lord are wise and they shall have many good days!

Be Who You Are, Not What Others Want You To Be!❤
Why are you single? When are you going to get married? When are you having kids? Why you don't have kids? Why is she/he divorced? What happened to them? Why are they like that? Why and why and why people like to ask these insensitive questions, being prejudice, stereotyping, speculates, gossips, and make inappropriate judgments.
How can you ask something that someone can't 100% control, just like death? Some things are unknown, it's like asking, when are you going to die? It's common sense. If you don't know this answer, means you won't know the exact why for such questions.
When someone is single by choice or it's not just the right time for them, let it be. So what if that person wants to be or will be single forever? It may be better for the person than being with the wrong partner for the rest of the person's life. You don't meddle with God's plan or even someone's choices. You can't force people to get into relationships, what's more marriage. If it is forced, how can a marriage be happy and whole? Love is a huge topic. Again it's not just about relationships and marriage.
People should not pretend to be stupid, play dumb, needy, spoiled, or fake just to attract/be with a life partner. Women and men should have their own intelligence, personality, independence, and truthfulness in life. We want to be real and genuine, and if someone wants us to be part of their life, it's better for them to know the real us from the get-go. Not presenting a false front.
A healthy relationship should be two individuals who love and care for each other, support, motivate, respect, be kind, honest, loyal, help, guide, communicate well, listen and give the very best to each other, by also being the best version of themselves. Not one person should be superior to the other or vice versa. If you feel forced and put yourself down for another person, you are probably in the wrong relationship.
Put aside status, education level, salary, or position in career, a partner and a healthy relationship should be side by side, be supportive, help each other, understand each other strengths and weaknesses, able to give and take/compromise, and open to learning from each other when it comes to marriage or any relationship.
A woman's or man's characteristics for example being soft or strong, and men prefer soft/more feminine women, and women who are less intelligent/educated than them, should not be generalized. Some men admire women who are intelligent/educated, strong, and independent and women have their preferences too. Different people are attracted to different traits. No one size fits all.
No one should pretend to be less than she/he is for the opposite partner to feel desirable or dominant. If a person desperately and constantly trying to boost their ego, be dominant or prove power especially in a relationship, this may lead to negative behavioral patterns and impacts such as emotional instability, harassment, abuse, bullying, verbal and physical violence, unhappiness, and depression.
We are all individuals in the end and have our differences. As a human being, one of the goals in life is trying to be better than we were yesterday. Trying to change ourselves for the sake of pleasing someone and pretending just to make someone feel happy or superior is not healthy and can jeopardize our own mental health and also the relationship in the long run.
If we want to change something, for example, I want to be more fitter, healthier, happier, smarter, financially independent, and so forth, it is for ourselves (without being selfish or self-absorbed). If we take care of ourselves first then we can take care of others better. Do for yourself and the motivation will be sustainable than doing for other people.
Respect and love yourself. Respect the people around you. Then we should not be degrading or intimidate anyone. This will make you a better person. We attract what we are.
Life is unique, so does human beings. Life itself is bigger than getting married, having kids, make tons of money, and so forth. This is the typical life cycles, stages and goals we all have learned in our life. The strong pressures in society dictate what is better and not just because that's what it is for the past generations have been. The pressure to fit in with society's standards and expectations is also there.
As a society and individual, let's understand deeper that not everyone will have the same life cycles and even life goals. There are things we can control and can't control. Not everything that is good for you is going to be good for other people. Having or not having something can be a blessing and sometimes only God knows why.
In life, some may walk their path of life and make choices completely different from us and that's perfectly fine. We all have our own unique journey and that makes us different, and we can use that differences to make life better for ourselves and the life of others.
Let this sink in.

Free will is not a scam.
God already knew all the actions we would choose to take, and He planned His own actions to lead us all to the best possible outcome—probably the highest number of people being saved. That is what predestination is.
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ; even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love; having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,” (Ephesians 1:3-5 WEB)
Predestination is not about how some people are made for Heaven and others are made to go to Hell.
God loves all of us. He made each and every one of us like an intricate embroidered work while we were in our mothers’ wombs. He designed us to be beautiful and unique.
“For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well. My frame wasn’t hidden from you, when I was made in secret, woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there were none of them.” (Psalms 139:13-16 WEB)
Unfortunately due to the fall, the flesh is tainted by sin from conception and that is why people are born with deformities and flaws. God made you perfectly, but sin in the blood distorts what He designed.
An illustration to help you understand: you can be a great artist who draws beautiful pieces of digital art, but if your only printer is faulty, the art will still come out blotchy and ugly, with patches of ink splattered everywhere. Adam damaged the printer when he sinned against God.
“The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9 WEB)
It is clear in the New Testament that God’s will is for all to be saved through faith in Jesus Christ, but when you give “free will” to a creature, you must let it choose, even if it chooses the self-destructive path.
Even though He knew that not everyone would accept Jesus as Lord, Jesus still bore everyone’s sins at the cross, and was punished for them, so that the cross is truly an open invitation for salvation to all. No one has been excluded—anyone can receive salvation if they choose to place their faith in Jesus.
God can give unbelievers many opportunities to know the Gospel and experience His goodness, but He cannot force them to make Jesus their Lord and Savior.
For us believers, God leads us by His Spirit every day. He prompts us to do the right thing and teaches us about Himself through His Word. We still have free will, and we can choose whether to follow the Spirit, or to be driven by our flesh.
Following God’s leading will always bring you to the best possible outcome for your life. He has your eternity in mind, to confer you the best eternal rewards, so that your joy will be made full. We have a good Abba God, so obey His promptings and believe that He wants you to receive the very best!
In “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever”, you will discover the rich eternal rewards that God has planned for you. There is a higher purpose, a calling upon your life, and complementary spiritual gifts to help you fulfill that. Redeem your time wisely for the Lord’s return is much nearer than before: http://bit.ly/sandcastlesdontlastforever

Vocal: Thủy Dương
English lyrics: Hoàng Đại
Học tiếng Anh qua bài hát
Lyrics:
Mặt trời kia dù ở đâu
Wherever the sun is
Dù ngày trôi nhanh hay rất lâu
However long my day seems
Dù là mình xa cách nhau
Though we are far away
Ánh sáng ấy vẫn là như thế
That sunlight is still the same
Vậy mà sau khi không có anh
But after you were gone
Đoạn đường nào em đi cũng vắng tanh
The roads I take it feels long
Thời gian ơi xin hãy trôi nhanh để em được lại ở bên anh
Wishing time would pass quickly so I can be with you soon
Đôi mình yêu nhau từ khi anh nói với em
We fell in love when you told me a thing
Rằng mỗi chiều khi trời nhá nhem
That everyday when sun goes down
Anh lặng thầm và đi theo em
You would walk along with me
Cùng em qua con đường tối đèn
On this long and winding road
Đèn đường khuya dù không sáng lên
With no street lights shining on
Đừng lo nhé có anh như mặt trời dịu êm
And you would be the sun that shines upon me
Giờ thì cứ thế người thì cứ thế
For now I know that we’re always
Cuốn lấy nhau
Stick together
Em đâu hay nếu mai này mây trời
But who knows how things would turn out
Giang tay che mất anh mình xa vời
Maybe you would not be around
Điều gì muốn đến rồi thì sẽ đến
Though we can’t change, what will be
Sẽ đến thôi
Will just be
Em luôn tin phía sau cơn ngủ mê
I know there will be that one day
Anh sẽ về
You come back
Mặt trời kia dù ở đâu
Wherever the sun is
Dù ngày trôi nhanh hay rất lâu
However long my day seems
Dù là mình xa cách nhau
Though we are far away
Ánh sáng ấy vẫn là như thế
That sunlight is still the same
Vậy mà sau khi không có anh
But after you were gone
Đoạn đường nào em đi cũng vắng tanh
The roads I take it feels long
Thời gian ơi xin hãy trôi nhanh để em được lại ở bên anh
Wishing time would pass quickly so I can be with you soon
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna be wanna be with you
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna be wanna be with you
Rap:
Just just just I'm just I'm just ah
Anh call để cho em nghe đôi lời
(I’m) calling to say something to you
Anh đang ở nơi không em không người
I’m standing where no one would do
Mây và gió đang thay lời anh nhớ em, nhớ luôn tiếng cười
Sending my words into the wind sayin’ I’m missing you
Em núp sau màn mây nơi xa chân trời hay đang ở trong vòng tay bên ai kia rồi
Wondering if you are just faraway or is there anyone keeping you safe
Cause I'm in love with you you
Cause I'm in love with you

When you wish up-on a star,
Makes no difference who you are,
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you.
If your heart is in your dream,
No request is too extreme,
When you wish up-on a star
As dreamers do.
Fate is kind, she brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret long-ing.
Like a bolt out of the blue,
Fate steps in and sees you through;
When you wish upon a star,
Your dre-ams co-me tru-e.
Many nights we've prayed with no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song we barely understood
Now we are not afraid although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long before we knew we could ohhhhh, yes
There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe oeoeoe yeah
In this time of fear when prayers so often prove in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds so swiftly flown away
Yet now I'm standing here my heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words I never thought I'd say
