How to own my future? I think it is one of the messages that i will not forget. Life is full of battles and everything we do is a battle we fight. We need to own our future by setting up a plan immediately. If we don't plan by ourselves, others will plan for us but think again, who's future we want to own?? it's OURS, so all the more we have to take charge of our future.
Procrastination is a big word. What if it's big? We all need to conquer that word before it eats up our lives. We need to plan for our future so that our future will belong to us. However, we are only humans and we do have our past stories, be it happy ones or sad ones. Letting go of the past will help us in possessing our future too because many a times, when we did not bury our past and want to do something new, we may hold onto our defeated thoughts that had gained entry into our lives in the past. What for hold on to our past perpetually, learn to let go. It's a gantry for many good things in the future.
To stay in the word, I think that's the part that hit me the most. As we move on in life and become busy with our own personal stuff, we get distracted and what if God decides to show up on the day that we do not pray, on the day that we do not read the bible? What regret will we bring along with us? What if God reveals to us about our future? How important will that be...
Stepping out in faith. Faith is an action in itself! It does not necessary be a religious action but for example, we exercise faith even when we take the lift. How do we know if the lift will not breakdown while we are in it? That's faith being exercised. Thanks ade for this illustration (: In the bible it says that "Be strong and of good courage...", it's mentioned more than once, this really shows that in our lives there will be many things that come to discourage us but will we be the last one standing? It all depends on us. We must have the courage to go on despite all circumstances.
Many times the things that we want to achieve is just one step away but of course, sometimes we give up even before reaching that last step. We got to change the way we think, right thinking will bring right living(:
Personally, I think I've really changed this weekend by the two messages especially cellgroup's. It's like a life lesson being learnt. it's like a power-packed weekend for me.
I went for my run just now after having Carl's Junior (is my first time) last night. Luckily I shared it with Hong Xiu, if not that's so many calories that I have to burn off!! hahaha XD I have yet to upload the photos, so i'm sorry to disappoint jamie and janet especially. heh. And yes, i will be early next week!
Dinner time!(:
