INDOMITABLE!
Tuesday, January 01, 2008 Here, God! Choose me! Use me!
Was preparing a teaching for tomorrow's caregroup just now. This particular teaching was taught by 2inc during Clm on september. God spoke to me 'bout different things this time round.

- ''Investment''
Many a times, one can easily forget 'bout the goodness of their Saviour. The One who pulled them out right from their darkest and deepest pit. The One who gave them directions. The One who guided them through almost anything and everything. They forget the values behind all that they are doing and see it as a ''chore'' or a ''routine''. Instead of seeing it as somethin' that is listed in ur ''To-do list'' , why not see it as an investment? Somethin' that is worth ur whole life? Jesus went through everythin' in exchange of your Salvation. Does it take alot for you to take a time out from your timetable/ busy schedule? No, i dont think it's too much.

- ''If whatever that you're holding on to is not worth dying for, it's not worth living for''
Isn't this logical? If whatever you're holding on to is not gonna be with you together in your grave, then it's pointless. It depends la. Sure, having good grades and going out to strive for succes and bringing some money back home is okay. In fact, it's great! But what i mean here is that passing glories will fade with time. Ultimately, it's not your certificates and trophies that determines your ticket to Heaven.

- ''It's not 'bout the actions. The values are to be understood first''
Basically, your focus, values and perspective determines your actions. For example, if you know that what you're doing is for eternity (values and perspective), you'd go all ways (actions) to do it because you know that it's worth it. If you think that God is not real and Jesus dying on the cross for men is just simply a story, you wouldnt at all go evangelise and everythin' yea? To change someone's actions, you got to first store in values in it, will then their mindset and perspective change, leading them to chage in their actions.

- ''God will help you to understand at the right time. At the meantime, give your all to obey''
Many times, we're asked to obey without full understanding. It can be quite hard, i know. God never fails. If you dont obey, you're actually indirectly, or rather, directly telling God that He's not God and you are. Simply put-God is God and you are not.

- ''In order for God to move, we need to first know God''
How do we have faith when we dont know God? Like every other relationships, it's a two way communication. God's hands are stretched out, it's now up to you to hold his.

All in all, God is never busy sprinkling gold dust.He's here.
Desire and God will work accordingly.
Believe and God will bless(:
