Past Failures


Long time no blog!

In a blink of an eye, the end of the year draws near..All the assignments are slowly piling up and exams would have to be done.

As some of you would have read in my recent reflection letter, there is always 1 lingering issue that with the help of the Lord, i'm still dealing with.
The fear of failure, or rather, past failures still come to haunt me time and again.

There's always a tendency to be discouraged easily.

But today as i was in church, Pastor preached about fighting against the devil's schemes of instilling fear, condemnation and intimidation in us.
of course we all know that fear, condemnation and intimidation can sometimes cloud our minds that we forget that the God that we believe in is so much bigger than all of those!

So instead of surrendering to all these, lets surrender to God!
God is again reminding me that I can be confident in him!

I will continue to give him praise!

I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart;
I will glorify your name forever.
(Psalm 86:12)

Credibility

"Somtimes need to vent frustration ma..i also don't mean it."

Thats what i hear some christians say when i stare at them or comment on their use of undesirable words.

I do not react like that just because i'm the one that sets the standard or everyone must say words that suit my ears.

How would people especially Non C's around you react when they hear you speaking like that? How different will you be from them?

I get really frustrated at times. Not that i profess to be perfect.
But people do not even see the need to speak or behave in a way thats pleasing to the Lord. sigh..

Its does not mean that we must act good in front of people. Its genuinely changing because of love for the Lord , so that people can see Christ in us.

Whatever is in your heart determines what you say.
Lets live what we believe.
