deep in thought Just had a good talk with my Uncle Eddie... Ha! I'm referring to him because I found out that some of my relatives do read my blog! And I believe he'll read this... Thank you Uncle Eddie! I never realised how my salvation 5 years back could move my family... From everyone's perspective, it was almost impossible for my parents to ever become Christians, my mum being the strong Buddhist that she was... And when I became a Christian, slowly she followed, then my dad... And I believe my entire family were quite shocked for a while... But that was the impact... How could I miss out the point about showing God's glory to my family the past few years? All I knew was just going to church, sacrificing this, giving that, that as if I gave it all and now left with nothing in my life... All I knew was being too reckless and neglecting everything that was NOT about church... Being a Christian is really not about how often you go to church, how many services you go a week, how available you are for your ministries, how big your zone and CG grows or how many friends you bring... It is about how you walk the walk with God, good enough to just inspire people to follow... St. Francis of Assisi said, "Preach the gospel always, if necessary use words." It's not really about your charisma and how much you bug your family and friends to believe Jesus, it's about how you really love them with the love of God, and live with Christ shining in your life by being a great testimony. I've made many mistakes, fell many times... But no fall is too great that I cannot get back up from... JC... Poly... All failed, I still have PGSM... I'm going to focus and do really well, not let anything else distract me again... I'm going to be successful, not just in church, but in the world... Successful enough that all my relatives can see God's glory, not mine... Successful enough for all my relatives to know that God is real in my life, and He can be in their lives! Sustainable idealism. I will be a great pastor and a great businessman. Till then, Gab, FOCUS. Study. PGSM. Conquer. Side note, can't wait to drive. I need my license, then I need a car. Argh...... |
