Fear
After 2 chapters of woodworm and screwtape, we'll rest today yeah? haha.. As some of you already know, i have just started school in NUS. yeah. Still trying to find my feet in there.
Jasmine from youth said this, " NUS seems to be able to suck every spirituality out of you." In the first two weeks of school, i found myself being anxious about my studies. About not being able to catch up in class. About not being able to mix in to the community. Cox i don't exactly know alot of people in NUS u know. Partly because i missed all the camps as i was away in South America. But thanks to old friends like Qi, Jelvin and Aileen and some people i met in NUS, they have made things much better. Hope people like Jasmine, Guan and Bowen had helped too. :)
I want to do well in school. I know what i am there for. I want to develop myself into someone who is capable of influencing the masses. I want to develop into someone who not only life for myself but for many others as well.
To tell the truth, i don't think i'll struggle to find a stable job. I don't think i'll struggle to find someone who'll marry me (hopefully and prayerfully), to start a family, attend sunday service, have kids and just be a normal tithing christian. Please don't mistaken me here, i'm not saying these things are bad. But i'm saying that if i am just like that, i think God will say... "haii" And the same goes out to those guys out there who are graduating soon or are thinking about your future. Don't just be contented with the norm.
God had placed us in such a strategic position, given us the comfort of Singapore and the access to resources. We will be held accountable to whatever is given to us yeah. And to those who are given more, more is expected of you.
I'm not saying everyone should go for the high rungs of society. I'm saying that if you are @ a stage where you are just mantaining a stable life, earning lots of money, maybe we should go beyond that. There is a cap to which how much coffins can cost.
Anyway, for those who really want to carry money to heaven, give me your money first, i'll write you a cheque and throw it into your coffin.
I am excited of what is coming up. A few of the NS ministry people are going off to study in UK and USA. Its exciting times as we send these people out. I once told Shirls this: "If the NS ministry only build guys who are contented with having a normal life, we have failed the church."
The world, here we come!!!
Regards,
Jie Hui
