Just got news that a friend's grandma passed away... So will be going for the wake tml aft bs... I miss my grandparents... They all left so early... The last left this world when I was in Pri 6? Do take care of ur grandparents well if they're still ard k?
Was in the MRT aft work juz now. At city hall, the area near the door was so so so full, but the centre area was rather empty... I was standing at the connecting area... Then God just asked me... Why these ppl dun wanna move in? So selfish. They only care abt themselves, that they had managed to get on... They got their own personal area ard them, enjoying the aircon... While ppl at the door were trying to push their way in...
God just reminded me, this is like a church!!! The ppl who just got on, they want more, they want to get in... But the ppl already inside are not helping them. They just wanna be comfortable where they are. They are reluctant to move even one more step in as it would require them to give up part of their 'space' to others. As a result, they blocked ppl from being able to board the train... Then the train door closes, leaving a group of ppl still outside. Why cant the ppl move in a little??? Then a few more can be added and experience the aircon too... Isit that difficult to move just a few steps?!! God just reminded me nt to be like this... When one more soul is added to the kingdom, the whole heaven rejoices!!! So when one more person can get on if i move a few more steps in, I can rejoice too!!!
And when we're the ones trying to get in, we'll be so glad if we're able to board... Then we can start our journey....
A friend was talkin to me just now... I realised that I've taken many things for granted... That friend had to fight so hard to just come for service in the past cos of her parents. Thus now that she has grown up, it has became easier for her to come. In addition, she can serve the Lord freely as she desires. But wat struck me was not her willingness to serve, rather it's the spirit behind being allowed to serve. It was a great privilege for her to be able to serve the Lord in the mission field. She really really treasure it so much, that she has started to pray and fast for the trip!!! Really very encouraged...
God just reminded me that I got to treasure what I have now... Everything... From God's provision to His love for us... And especially the presence of God. Got to renew my mind, my love for God everyday... Really got to enter into His presence everyday and treasure and repect that moment... I got to learn to love God more, to treasure all that I am given and will be given... Thank You, Father! Thank You, Jesus! Thank You, Holy Spirit!
The bottomline is... Treasure all that you have now, and be thankful always.... Appreciate others! And be really really sincere in all that you do...
