#14 Who We Truly Belong To (25/6/10)


I know I know.... It has been a whole 2 months since my last blog post. Disappointment!! Only got myself to blame for my severe lack of motivation. Hmmm got a lotta catching up to do now! Need to start piling in the effort to keep my life in perspective! *Fingers Crossed*

Last night was really really really really a huge turning point. Amidst all the BT2 preparations, yesterday's LG on 'Influence' and half a year of embracing on the topic of Intentional Discipleship really spurred me on to do some reflection and pondering. (Stared at the ceiling for a whole 2 hours in fact =O) So yeah! I just lied on my bed, grabbed my pillow, held my Bible, and thought and thought and thought... It's simply amazing how God created each and every one of us as an individual. Not only an individual, but a distinct individual to do specific tasks to glorify his Kingdom. How he specifically and carefully crafted each and every one of us to perfection in order to be the best stewards we can in his Kingdom is just simply amazing! If we are made to be the founder of Adidas, we are made to be that person and no one else can take your place. Similarly, if we are created to be an evangelist. Make use of that gift to the best of your ability. No questions asked. Just do what God tells you to do...

This picture speaks a thousand words. It tells the whole story of who we are and what we are supposed to do. Amazing! After yesterday's LifeGroup and stalking of Jinger's and Joane's blogs, I thought of this... Every single part and aspect of us belongs to the Lord, Our God. Be it our hands, our legs, our mouths and even our hair! There is just simply so many different ways we can use these gifts to glorify God. We can use our legs to run marathons to raise money for our church. We can use our mouths to spread the Gospel and make God known! We can even donate our hair for the Hair For Hope event!

It is very important not to abuse these incredible gifts that God has blessed us with. Use them to the best of your abilities in whatever you do. Be it in serving the community or in outreach and discipleship. Just bear in mind that God has a purpose for each and everyone of us. No matter how young we are or how poor we are, no one is restricted of the ability to make a difference.

For the Bible says in 1 Timothy 4:12 --- "Do not let anyone look down on you because you are young but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." =) Jiayou people!

Argh I really hate the times when your head really itches a few hours after waxing your hair. The huge price that guys(and some girls) pay to look good...
