Going on Missions! :D
I have always heard a saying "whoever goes on a mission trip in the end gets ministered the most"
Sorry people for not updating regularly. This month has been a busy month for me as I go through reservist, and preparing for missions and FOC :D
It has really been fruitful going through all the preparations, the way I see God work through others, including myself. I even realised something much deeper... as people age, we grow with maturity and away from the worldly attractions like looks, money power.
God has made us such the way that we will age, and as we age, we lose our youthful looks. And people complain why life is hard too. The way I see God see that if we were to stay young forever, and be successful and not die, we would not need God. God hence created us to NEED Him. We may claim we don't, but there's always a past fault, past regret, the past hurts, past emptiness in our hearts that we hold on to. But if we lose all of this to embrace God, we will be set free.
Life.. what is life about? We own nothing to come into this world, and can take nothing away. We do not even know where we come from and where we are going from here. WOW and why are we here..
If life stops at the point we are pronounced dead, what hope is there to live for? if we cannot lose what we did not own to begin with (our life, our belongings, our money, our looks), what do you lose by believing in God?
