I fell in love with this picture the moment i saw it.. outstanding little yellow smiley :) :) It reminds me of how I ought to respond to my Master's command of being salt of the earth, light of the world.. In complete darkness.. even a ray of light is enough.
Standing out for Jesus, shining as little light. To love when others hate, to give when others take... Went church today.. thank God, my mum didnt say anything.. hope that she has already gave up telling me not to go.. Praise the Lord :P .. pray that God will continue to soften her heart and one day! she'll come to know the wonderful Creator! ;) Today's message was again on evangelism.. Pastor was saying how we ought to be like Paul to be OBLIGATED to both the Greeks and non-Greeks, both the wise and the foolish.being eager to preach the gospel.. Obligated because the gospel is entrusted to us by God to those who are lost.. Pastor gave an analogy that caught my attention(i was vvv tired and sleepy at that time). He said its like someone who owes my father 500 bucks and that person pass the money to me so i can pass it to my dad.. though i dun owe my dad that money, i have a duty to return it to him. I have tasted the goodness of God, I have been entrusted the precious message of the gospel from the Father. I need to pass it to those who are supposed to receive the message and be saved. I owe it.. to both the wise and the foolish. N while all christians are called to live the gospel, spread the good news, how many actually do it wholeheartedly..? "I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. " Rom 1: 16 Indeed, it is by the grace of God and power of God to change the heart of a man... to repent and become citizen of the kingdom of heaven. It is never the work of man. I am not ashamed of my God.. I love Him!
Today, wanted to ask youth pastor to endorse my MEET form(Mission education and exposure training).. 9mths.. it's intensive and i need to channel more effort to my schoolwork, he advised me not to go.. for the sake of my witness here. i dont have to spend my time overseas to experience God and learn.. perhaps this is exactly where God wants me to learn. Perhaps i need to let go and let God... He told me about his own experience.. he told me alot other things... I thank God for him..I'm still thinkin about it.. I need prayers.. I need wisdom.. God help me! what is your will.. what do you want me to do....
Signing off...Tingyu^^

"Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint." Isa 40:30-31
