#16 I Looked Back
Heng Yu's at my house right now. Stayover, then go to school together tomorrow. It's going to be a load of a week for my shepherd and myself; you know what God's saying? RAISE MORE DISCIPLES! Greater responsibilities for humbler disciples. I want to be the faithful servant in the parable of the talents!...

When we customise God... What is true joy... Doing Church As A Team... Leaving A Legacy...
Seriously I should be shot. Rarely does the average Singaporean get an hour or two to read. Or do we? I posed this question back to myself. Often I spend valuable time on what should be done and not what must be done.
And when I turn back and re-read my notes, I realise the answers to most of my problems lay in that cache full of Godly treasures. It's true, we never understand after one reading. We need to refresh and reprint it not only in our minds, but more importantly in our hearts.
Oh boy, I'm such a sinner. And I firmly believe that if I put my 100% into this, I'd reap beyond 100% output (because miracles do happen).
The Spirit is willing but the body is weak.
I can try. Real hard.
Certain short-term goals:
1. Understand my situation to such a degree I know where I am with the snap of a finger.
2. Improve worship leading capacity. The Spirit is abounding in my heart. It's to release my life to Him.
3. Aspects of faith. Confident faith, persevering faith, active faith, firm faith, valuing faith.
Aim high, hit high.
A few testimonials:
1. My sheep got back into class after the school said he was out, by some miracle. God is good! And he's changing, he's trying, Jiayou bro...!
2. I see Jerrome's life-transformation in terms of response to situations. Even though he is not perfect, as with everyone else, he tries very much and I see his attitude is way better than before! Thank God for you brother!
3. Jovin just celebrated his birthday on Saturday. This bro has really impacted me a lot; very disciplined compared to me. We once agreed to stop playing DOTA together, to cure our addiction. I broke that agreement 3 times before succeeding; he succeeded without breaking that agreement; or at least not that I know of. Now we both haven't played DOTA since then.
4. My shepherd, Alvin, who tries without fail to disciple me, even though I bite him hard at times. I thank God he doesn't hold it against me; he tries even harder!
5. Cedric. Even though this brother's quiet with me around, I see he tries to communicate. The effort counts a great deal brother!
And a great deal of people I can't write now, even though their names burn in my heart; the footsteps they've placed in my life. The church isn't perfect, but it's moving towards perfection!
