2 Peter 1:16-21 (New International Version)

 16We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."[a] 18We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.

 19And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. 20Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation. 21For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

Dear Sisters,
 
Recently have you been receiving emails with subject on Zodiac 2009, or perhap your colleagues pass you a copy of magazine on Feng Shui ? or how about when you turn on the tv and you hear someone on other end talks about chinese astrological animal, what 2009 has instore for your sign??  I have...and read them too though i have reminded myself to ignore and ignore.  I felt so guilty after that.  I stumble upon this verse today...2 Peter 1:16-21 God reminded all of me that in the world full of speculation, only His Word is certain.  God is never wrong.  He has a plan for all of us, plan to prosperous us and not to harm us..Jeremiah 29:11...my favourite verse.  I know i need to pay more attention to the Bible and stay away from the world's delight.  Please pray for me to be strong and not easily wavered.
 
Love, Just.
