ANTz… full of energy

was waiting at the bus-stop on my way to work today and happened to be in one of blubberboy’s day dreaming mode again…. reflecting about life…

there were some ants on the ground and was enthralled by the amount of energy they have in them. if anyone does get a chance, observe a colony of ants moving….they seem to be so friendly animals or rather insects…. moving around peacefully in a world that is ever so huge for them (of course we are not talking about those fiery fire ants!!)

ANTz: they are always on the move…. moving along constantly at great speed and for considerable distance given their peewee size. They  seem to possess so much energy in them. blubberboy has never seen an ant stop or moving in a sluggish fashion *unless intoxicated with Mortein or Baygon hehe!!

what fascinates blubberboy is that regardless of how ‘busy’ they appear to be, they will stop by seemingly to say ‘hi’ to each ants moving in the opposite direction… imagine what the world will be like if everyone could give a bit of effort into making someone’s day by small and simple actions like a ‘HI’ and ‘Gd-Day’….. NICE!!

blubberboy: Stress or Tired??

auntie murphy commented that blubberboy looked really stressed and tired.

is that realli the case? if so, what could be the reason??

had a bit of ‘alone time’ on the bus into work todae and had a bit of opportunity to reflect on the true reason behind blubber’s apparent ‘tiredness’…

some reasons blubberboy thought could be the cause:

1. too much fun leading into OZ Day – probably hitting a ‘low’ after so much ‘highs’
2. ‘whale hunter’ putting pressure on blubberboy
3. its Feb, and time is finally running out for blubberboy in Kangaloo-land
4. blubberboy had a real inefficient day and blubber hates inefficiency – when blubber sets his mind into doing something, he wants to get it done efficiently. But for some reason, the day did not end up as productive as blubber wants it.

probably, the thought of leaving kangaloo-land is finally sinking into blubberboy. D-Day: 10th March 2007. together with the pressure of completing blubberworkz before the date probably showed up in blubber’s apparent tiredness / stress.

hmmm…. but life has to go on! heads up and move on!!

blubberboy needs to go back to the ocean again!!

a swim in the sun…. the sound of waves taking all ‘troubles’ away…finding inner peace and the party will go on!!!!

6 daez no BLOG :(

hmmm… blubberjean aka karapahoo commented that blubberboy no blog for 6 daez..

why?? hmmm.. blubberboy realli dunno why. prob too busy partying… hehehe!!

definitely have lots to blog but realli dunno where to start…. but definitely will be starting on some topics..

probably AUSSIE DAY!! so stay tuned karapahoo!!!

thanks for your prayers

blubber just wants to thank everyone for praying for blubber on ‘crisis monday’.Let’s just say: Things did not end up how blubber wanted…. BUT blubber has to say your prayers definitely helped blubber find the inner peace to deal with the situation. A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL cos your prayer was answered for a better reason….. blubber has somehow found solitude within to see the whole situation in a different perspective.

sometimes things do not happen in life for a divine reason. God has a will for everyone and it is not governed by what you achieve in life….
blubber believes: things happen in life for a reason. to take u to a different place. the place you are meant to be next. After all, life is a journey – not a destination…. its the journey that fills and enriches a person!!

Great poem from Lifes’ journey website:

As the pathway of life
Doth take a new turn
Walk with head held up high
And let go of concerns

Know that much love is with you
And you’ll be alright
As a new dawn doth break
After long hard dark night

As one doorway closes
Another appears
Walk forward in joy
Let go of all fears

A bright new tomorrow
Is waiting for you
Let Love be your guide
As it comes into view

Thank life for its lessons
Even sorrow and pain
With the passage of time
All sadness will wane

Remember the good times
Let go of the bad
Retain happy memories
Try not to feel sad

In the journey through life
There is no right or wrong
Just choices we make
As we travel along

Just follow your heart
In all that you do
Know you are loved
And love yourself too

Be Thou Near To ME

great song… depicts blubber’s feelingz for the ‘crisis monday’ coming…. “O Lord, be thou near to me…”

Be Thou Near To Me
Jim Brickman feat. Selah

O, Lord I come with heart here open
For in my hour of darkness I may be
Seeking the joy of love unspoken
O, Lord be Thou near to me

And the holy voices sing hallelu..
Ever will thy reign be
As I wander through this life
O, Lord be Thou near to me

Though in this burden of my making
Yet in the shadows still a light I see
Maker whose love is not forsaken
O, Lord be Thou near to me

And the holy voices sing hallelu..
Ever will thy reign be
As I wander through this life
O, Lord be Thou near to me

Jesus Prays Perfect Prayers For You

blubber was sharing with blubbermate, Bear, about how blubber is going to meet with ‘whale hunter’ for a crisis meeting on Monday. According to ‘whale hunter’, there are issues that have to be sorted out and blubber senses that ‘whale hunter’ is trying all means to make things really difficult for blubber to continue blubberworkz in blubber homeland. blubber cant describes this feelingz…. lost? confused? anger?

one thing’s for sure: inner peace is gone… for now at least…. it is going to be a massive ‘crisis monday’ which blubber is not looking forward to

well, here’s reply from blubbermate, bear:

bear: anyhow, i prayed and told God about it…… so dude, tell God and believe…it can happen for u for miracles happen to those that God loves

Under God’s guidance, blubber found this article (verse) from New Creation Daily Devotion – Jesus Prays Perfect Prayers For You

blubber will definitely be in prayer about mon’s meeting and the future of blubberworkz….

blubber needs help….. say a prayer for blubber, blogospherean!!

Hebrews 7:25
Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

The Bible says that Jesus always lives to make intercession for us. Once, I used to think that Jesus is seated at the Father’s right hand today, praying all the time, waiting and hoping for the Father to do something.

But that is not the truth. Look at what Jesus prayed when He stood before Lazarus’ tomb. He declared, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.” (John 11:41) He prayed these words before Lazarus came forth from his tomb alive. Jesus knew that His prayers would always come to pass because the Father always hears Him. (John 11:42)

So what does “Jesus always lives to make intercession for us” mean then? Because Jesus is our High Priest (Hebrews 4:14), we get a picture of what happens when we pray if we understand what the high priest did with the burnt offering of a bird in the Old Testament. (Leviticus 1:14–17)

The birds brought to the high priest are a picture of our prayers flying to the Lord Jesus because we pray to the Father in Jesus’ name. Now, just as the high priest removes the bird’s feathers after killing it, Jesus removes all that is superfluous and unclean from our prayers, which are usually tainted with our self-centredness and fleshly desires.

Then, just as the high priest offers the bird as a burnt sacrifice, a sweet aroma to the Lord, Jesus our High Priest adds His perfection, beauty, excellence and fragrance, which the Father so delights in, to our prayers. And He presents our prayers to the Father as the perfect prayer.

My friend, that is how Jesus lives to make intercession for us. And He does all this because He loves us. When you know that He presents a perfect prayer on your behalf to God, you don’t have to run to a church leader to pray “more accurately” for you.

You can take advantage of His intercession for you and say, “Lord Jesus, I don’t know what else to say… please pray for me.” And when Jesus prays for you, His prayers will always be answered because the Father always hears His Son when He prays!
