the best.

one of the most nerve wrecking news that the poly grads can expect is the news of the new timetable! and i believe most if not all would say amen to that!


and on the day of release of our new timetable, i overslept and woke up. when i saw the messages on my handphone that the timetable is finally out. i really believe with all my heart thats one of the worst ways to wake up haha, at least for now. some who messaged had really good timetable while some just reminded us to check. but the me at that time, had a totally unprepared heart that went into worrying mode.


was really worried on how the timetable would be, i was scared to even check it! because that very timetable would determine how things would be like in ED1 and ministry. in short, it affects alot of areas of our lives.


but i was reminded by God that we shouldn't worry! and i really took some time to really turn back to God and remind myself of no matter what the timetable is like, whether its good or bad to me it doesn't matter! cos its God's best for me! and with that i committed my timetable into God's mighty hands and i checked.


first thing i checked, wednesday and thursday slot, any clash with cg time? and sadly the answer is yes, and i moved on to other slots and praise God! i end early on tuesday and that would be a good time for cg huddle! and no school on fri! at first glance, my timetable really looks sucky. it seems to be filled with things and everything. and i didn't find it very good even tho i noe it's the best.


but guess what? i just checked my timetable again! and i realised that i almost missed out God's blessings! on certain days i end earlier for this term! because some of those on the timetable are for next term! so for now i end at 3pm for mon and tue, 5pm for wed and thurs and school-less on fri! praise God!! really thank God for everything!


Good is a measurement of man's view of God's best plan for man.
But best is the measurement of God's best plan for men. Best is definitely good for us in God's eyes, but good in man's eye may not be the best for us.


thank You God for the best You have for me, regardless of what the world throws at me now. i'll be alright!=)


God really blesses the poly grads so much, with the best timetable He has for us and also the late camp dates! now we don't have to take our term test during camp! we can enjoy it fully! woohoo! let's jiayou tgt!=)

destroying.

"One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys."Proverbs 18:9


someone showed me the verse, and usually at the first thought. the verse just appears to be reminding us that if you don't do anything then its not good.


but i was pondering on the verse as i knew that what God wanted to speak to me was much more.


and here goes

by not moving God's kingdom, it does not just mean you do not advance God's kingdom. by choosing to not prioritize building God's kingdom and advancing God's kingdom first does not JUST means you do not advance God's kingdom.

it does really means that you are destroying! you are destroying the future growth and the supposed growth that is supposed to be there if ONLY you choose to step out of your comfort zone, to say "God i will do it."

and when it came to me i really repent of all the times i go lazy and slacky, times when i get comfortable and choose to remain comfortable with close friends and my laptop. thinking of the amount of things i have destroyed in those times that i have not chosen to advance the kingdom of God.


not to even mention the consequence of not moving! it's not just destroying the future growth and the supposed growth.

Proverbs 10:4
Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth.

This is God's promise and revelation to the lazy. if you are lazy, because of your laziness you'll contribute to making yourself fruitless and having nothing / little in God's kingdom.



Question to all, are you lazy in any way? lazy to step out of your comfort zone? lazy to stand up against peer pressure? lazy because it is raining? lazy because you are tired?

even when you are tired, you can still be hardworking. cos being hardworking and diligent is about giving your best every moment, not by how much you give measured by results. but by how much you give measured by your willing heart and hands that only God can see.


and of course being diligent would definitely help you see fruits in your life, seeing life transforming for the better, seeing yourself helping others to have a life transformation as well.


*evaluate and reflect on your life, just how much have you really achieved of things that will last and is not temporary?

i know i have achieved at a few things that are TRULY eternal, my relationship with God, my relationships with my friends. and i am working towards my relationship with my family to be eternal as well. there are much more eternal treasures that can be claimed and achieved by us, the question is, will you?


[let's start moving and not get lazy in anything.]

the decisions.

make the right decisions, make the right decisions, make the right decisions.


doesn't matter if everyone else around you makes the wrong choice.

cos the decisions a person make, shows the positions a person can take.
only when you're ready and you make the right decisions for God, then will God be able to put u in the position that He wants to use you fully! woohoo!


and how do you know how to make the right decisions? one answer - follow Jesus. whatever that is best to advance God's kingdom would definitely be what Jesus would do. but to know what to do specifically if u really don't know, comes from asking the person taking care of you in the church or the word of God.


to have great success, expect great problems. to have greater success, expect God to move through those great problems.
once again, no problem, no growth, no success!


ED1A, if ur having problems in prioritising God first, good for you. we'll go thru it tgt with God and we'll experience that great success God has for us=D jiayou!=)
