Chapter 88: Wagamama Sushi


My sister, Rachel, came to find me and see how I am doing. Entering my room, she immediately saw something on my table. Picking up the 50% voucher and shout “Brother! I want to eat Wagamama Sushi!”

It’s been a long time that me and my sister did not hang out together. Hence, I brought my sister and her friend to go and have dinner in Wagamama Japanese Restaurant.

When we started to order Sushi, she was very excited. She even ordered one of her favorite sushi – the salmon with rice and mayonnaise. I was like…

“Huh? Sushi with mayo?”
“Yeah! You do not know now the sushi got mayo?”


Then I also saw sushi with avocado, sushi with cheese, sushi with whatever…

“With Cheese?”

Rachel and her friend were laughing at me, saying that nowadays sushi is more westernized now. Then I suddenly thought about that now most of the nations are mixed with different cultures. Even food is involved in cultural issues. Chinese food with western style… for example. Everything changes, ya?

I started to think about the church today. Did the doctrine of theology also change due to the cultural issues? There are many changes in Jesus’ teachings in certain churches. There are many extra doctrines which do not even exist in the scriptures. Some people even change the true meaning in the bible. Some introduce certain things which we do not even know whether it is true or not. Some introduce things which cannot be found in bible. All of these have really mixed up the whole system of the church. It affects the whole body of Christ. Many churches are corrupted. There are why many denominations are formed. I was thinking why churches are divided though they all believe in one God.

God, You do not delight in division among the churches. You want all the churches to fulfill one purpose for You – to bring good news to the lost. I wonder Jesus has given us the task on what to do. However, many people tend to mix it up and make Jesus’ teachings even more complicated. They have many disputes and conflicts. God, this should not be. God, have mercy on us sinners.

God, I really do hope to see all different churches will unite as one – the Church of Jesus. People will worship You, together praising Your Holy Name, shouting “Hallelujah!”

God, I know this is what You wanna see. I really wanna do this for You, to unite the churches back. Knowing it is hard because people’s wisdom will block them from listening to the truth.

God, this is my desire. Knowing I am nothing, but a junk! Yet I believe God will not despise and use my life for Your glory! Let this burn in my heart. Use me as Your tool, and glorify Your name.

Ephesians 4:3-6
"Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called— one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all."

Zhen Zhen and Rachel
And the dinner in Wagamama cost me RM113.45.

RACHEL! AHHHH…!!!

Chapter 61: One Step Closer


MSN window popped out, saying “Tired…”

“What’s up?”
“Wanna rest! Lunch later?”
“Ya! Having lunch together?”
“Ok, lunch at Wisma Merdeka.”
“Where about in Wisma Merdeka?”
“Near Coffee Bean, it’s called ChocoCafe.”

Huh…? ChocoCafe?

When I reached ChocoCafe, Timmie was waiting there with George. I was wondering that Timmie likes that kind of place… Wow!

I ordered Turkey Ham sandwich. And it was delicious. I believe it is good to eat light lunch sometimes. Timmie ordered crab sticks… This is so funny. I did not know she prefers finger foods. Now it will be easier for me to bring her for meals. Feed her with fries, nuggets, and sandwiches…

My Turkey Ham Sandwich. Hmmm...

During the lunch, we actually discussed a youth who was lonely. That youth (a girl) always think that no one will care for her. Nobody wants to know about her misery. I was thinking that most of the people in this world are really sorrowful. However, I was glad in one thing. This girl looked for me in MSN and shares her sorrow to me. I thought this is pretty miserable. I asked in my heart, “Jesus, how would you feel?”

Timmie and her favorite Crab sticks

Timmie said that she showed sympathy to this youth too. She actually asked me a few times, saying, “How is she? What happened in her life? I wanna know.” When I heard that, I was actually feeling that Jesus would feel the compassion for that youth too.

Readers, why are there so much sorrow in this world? I wanna state the real fact – there are many people who are very lonely and sad. This is my miserable experience. I dare to test you one thing. When you are alone, suddenly you will feel moody and miserable. Bad thoughts came into your mind. And you start to think life sucks! Today, more than 20 people came to me and share that they are lonely and sad.

I just wanna ensure you one thing. Life is yours. Do not say, “Well, this is LIFE…”

Change your life!
Pursue righteousness!
Make a breakthrough in your life!
Live your life to the FULL!

Hey! Guess what! I am moving one step closer to my success of life. And I will surely achieve my goal and dream. I will tell the whole world about Jesus. God, I wanna change the minds of the sorrowful people.

Jesus, lead me on!!

Proverbs 21:21
“He who pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honor.”

Chapter 8: Red

Written on March 2008












“Why is your face red?” the people asked me.
“Well, I believe this is a wonderful creation of God.” I answered.

I, Jack’s Stuff has a special feature which not everyone has it.People give me a nick – Jack the Apple, Jack the Red, Jack the rose cheek... whatever…


I have a red face. Since the day I was born, my face is born to be like that. I had heard thousands of times from people, saying, “Why is your face red?”

To me, at first, I found it really annoying. It’s because I find it REAL ugly. The reddish face without any itchiness just looks blemish… People around me are normal, I am abnormal…

However, right now, I think differently. I think I am UNIQUE… No one has it, I have it. I feel proud about it.

Somehow I am allergy to Sunlight, Super Spicy food, Seafood… High temperature of hotness and Low temperature of coldness.

When any of these matters happened to me, people will notice my face very obviously! It is TOO RED! Like an Red Apple! People will surely notice it! Ha ha… Especially after my exercise, people will say, “Jack, your face!!! WOW!!! ”

People easily identify my emotions. They can roughly know what had happened to me. When I am sad, when I am happy, when I am excited, when I am panic, when I am angry… My red face will tell everything.

So I guess for those who read Jack’s Stuff blog, and they meet me in person, they will not ask me the same question again.

Chapter 5: Not an Ordinary Life

Written on 28 January

















In these few days, I had been observing how the people lived in their lives. The people had been repeating their life daily or weekly. And they were contented with it.

I felt that (in my opnion) this is not what I want. To me, this is meaningless. I do not want to live like an ordinary person – keep on repeating the daily lifestyle.

A person who always knows how to expose himself into the world will definitely find his purpose of life. As for me, I am a person who likes to learn new things and expose myself into different world.

Though we might have skills/talents (music, video, art design, cooking… etc),we at least travel around to expose into other places.

For example, I have a gift of multimedia. And I worked in a Malaysia company. Am I going to stay like that for the rest of my life which repeated the life again and again?





Daily Routine: Wake up, Breakfast, Go to work, Wait for Boss to give tasks, Do video, Lunch, Surf the net, Msn, Tea Break, Talk rumors and gossip, Time to go home, Shower, Dinner, Watch TV, Hang out with friends, sleep.

This is a waste of time. It is like a computer. Come on! We are humans. I do not want this. I wanna be an extraordinary person. A person who wanna be extraordinary will always cherish time to expose new areas (go to other countries and try lifestyle there, or find things that you never learn or expose before). This is what I called LIFE.












I have a friend. He is Benjamin. We knew each other during a English Youth Camp. After that, he was inspired by the brand “Jack’s Stuff”. And my C Walk attracted him till now. And now we are like brothers. Even his sister Yolanda is very nice to me.











He loves to cook. I believe everyone recognizes him as a good chef already. He used to launch a food stall in Kota Kinabalu (Central of Sabah, Malaysia). I heard that he earned good money. He is only 20 years old in Year 2008. As compared to the society, he is actually already a successful person. However, he closed down the food stall. And people complained that he should not close down.

Then he explained to me, “Jack, this is not the life that I want. I want to learn more and expose more into the world. I will NEVER want to stay in Malaysia forever. Though my food stall earned good money, this is not what I want. It is meaningless. I will be going to Taiwan for exposure.”


His thought is exactly the same as mine. I wanna do something greater for the Glory of God.


I want to have an extraordinary life
but not everyone will understand. I wanna do something different in church for the Glory of God.
