"they may be ever seeing but never perceiving,
and ever hearing but never understanding;
otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!'" Mark 4: 11-12
What I received from Jesus today is it is not easy to turn around from where you are heading to where Jesus is if you are away from him.
Yes, indeed it is right before you if you are heading on Jesus direction is the harvest of the actualization and living out of the parable of the growing seed, the mustard seed and experiencing how Jesus calms the storms in your life.
But, without turning, a U-turn, a left-turn, a right-turn...to the way heading where Jesus is and be with Jesus everyday you have no hope to experience that. Only Jesus can open your eyes to see and understand that you are blind and unable to hear spiritually You can hear many wonderful and powerful things of those missionaries, leaders, your relatives and friends telling you they experienced that but you would never have that. You keep on asking why not me and that is the answer. If you are those who are already in Christ and with Christ daily then you need to be a discipler to help people to walk the path you have been walked.
Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to turn back to you and help others to turn back to you. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
Help us to turn back to you and help others to turn back to you. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Welcome! The purpose of this blog is to encourage those who join our Disciplers 123 to have a place to start their daily devotion - a wonderful and intimate time with Jesus. There are three reasons for you to use this blog as your daily devotion:
- A healthy spiritual diet - One chapter of the Bible daily. We really need at least one chapter of Bible daily so that we are well fed.
- A good example of Spiritual Journaling - What I have committed for 1,189 days(the Bible has 1,189 chapters) to write this daily post is not for teaching purposes but this is my daily spiritual journal - I write down what I hear from Jesus and how I experience His intimate relationship with me each day. I have launched a wide-spectrum research on daily devotion and have found out that there are less than 10% of Christians that are having daily devotion. Out of that 10%, many having daily devotion are doing so because of guilt (they know that they are Christians and need to have daily devotion and feel guilty if they don’t do that), duty (they need to fulfill their duty as a Christian) or study(lots of Christians primarily use their daily devotion as a time to study the Bible). I do pray and hope that you will make up your mind to have a relational daily devotion so that you can have an intimate time with Jesus. I pray that you will write your own spiritual journal as well.
- An online discipler – One of the reasons that so many Christians do not have daily devotion is because they do not have a discipler. A discipler can help them build up this basic element of discipleship when they first become Christians. The best way for you is to have a discipler to walk with you for a certain period of time so that daily devotion become a good habit. Or, you may have a small group of two to three people to encourage and be accountable to each other so that you won’t stop your daily devotion. I offer myself as your online discipler to walk with you daily to enrich your spiritual journey. So, shall we start this journey with Jesus Christ our Lord now!
