'I am unloved & unwanted!':
Perhaps the most painful and devastating experience in life is the feeling of being rejected, unloved and unwanted. I believe there are thousands of people out there in this world who feel that nobody cares for you, and you in turn care for nobody. You may be lonely, depressed, insecure and suspicious. You have lost your purpose and direction in life. Some may be so far out in your emotional wilderness that you don't seem to feel anything except plain numbness and emptiness in your soul. So many tragic stories laid buried and untold behind those empty eyes, and the eyes themselves having run out of tears a long time ago. You think there is no future for you, but only the painful past which you desperately wanted to forget, but it seem to cling on to you like a dirty stain. You may feel trapped, hopeless and guilty.
'The world is unfair!':
You believe that the world is unfair to you; you may be right! The world is quite unfair sometimes! It's a place where our best friends may betray our trust, where promises and hearts are broken, and where love and loyalty may be cheaply sold as merchandise! It's a place where the rich become richer and the poor poorer! It's a place of 'survival of the fittest'! It's no wonder you don't see the way out of your situation.
Let me tell you a love story:
A long time ago, there was this God of Love who created the heavens and the earth, including every humanbeing. The purpose of creating humanbeings was that He may have a love relationship with them. He created a special place in the human heart which only He could fill. But the first humanbeings disobeyed Him, rebelled against Him, and shut Him out from that special place in their hearts! From that day, humanbeings have been feeling empty, and lost their joy, having no purpose and direction in life. But God loves His creation, especially humanbeings so much so that He Himself send His Son, named JESUS to re-establish that love relationship, and now people could again find true meaning and satisfaction in life by opening that special place in their hearts again to God. The good news is that this God loves YOU too, and this love is UNCONDITIONAL! You don't need to try to be better to be accepted! You are loved as you are!
'Wait a minute!
Before you turn away and dismiss this whole article as a 'nonsense crap', please listen! I was like you once, but now I am completely different because I have found the Answer! If you really really want to have a new beginning, a new direction and meaning in life, JESUS is your only hope! Try Him! What I said is ABSOLUTELY TRUE! Jesus said,"I have come that they (you) may have life, life in all its fullness".(John 10:10) Invite Jesus to come and occupy that 'special place' in your heart! He will do it! You will be completely changed! It's amazing! It's unbelievable! This is a life of love, joy, peace and contentment!
May the LORD God bless you as you read this article!

I Believe
This is neither a Nicean Creed nor a doctrinal statement of a certain church. This is just a summary of my personal beliefs, and they form the basis of my faith, my way of life and thought, and they directly influence all my decisions in life!
1. I believe in God. I know this God personally, and He knows me better than I know myself! In fact, He created me! He is the most amazing and awesome God! There is none like Him!
2. I believe in the Trinity of God - God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. I do not fully understand the triune nature of God, and I am glad for that because if I know everything about God, He will not be God!
3. I believe the Bible is the Word of God, period!
4. I believe I am saved by the grace of God through Jesus Christ. This salvation is given absolutely free!
5. I believe I am the temple of the Holy Spirit who indwells, fills and empowers me to live a life pleasing to God.
6. I believe in miracles, and nothing is impossible with God!
7. I believe in a vibrant, active, supernatural and joy-filled Christian life!
8. I believe I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!
9. I believe in Heaven where the righteous (in Christ) will live forever with God, and I believe in Hell where those who rejected Christ will be tormented forever.
10. I believe in and look forward to the Rapture of the Church/saints near the end times, and I believe the time is near!
11. I believe Christ will come again soon to put an end to evil, and to judge the living and the dead.
12. I believe in the Final Judgement where Jesus Christ is the Judge, and His judgement shall be absolutely fair and right! This is the final and permanent separation between saints and sinners! Saints will go to heaven, and sinners will go to hell!
