Serving hard

Now is a period of xiongness..haha..many things to be done and new things to try out...hmm so why am i blogging? haha to make sense to keep track that i'm on track and not falling away.. cos the worse thing i want to happen is i serve God in works so much i forgot my motivation which is Him..

1 Corinthians 9:24-27
²⁴Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.

²⁵Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. ²⁶Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. ²⁷No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.

yup, very important verse that i want to hold on to and never ever let go!
well, mainly busy because of ESS publicity.. cos the deadline is horribly near!! coming saturday will be our first publicity, that's like 5 days away only!!
yea, the things to be tied down now are the invite cards, the publicity clips..
but really am very thankful for this team..everyone is so hyped up to serve, i don't feel a tinge of reluctance to sacrifice time for the benefit of the ESS production...that i feel really amazed by how God prepared their hearts to serve.. though not the first time serving in a publicity team (previously served in communcations for UNI-YA Camp), i looked at this opportunity to serve as something new, a chance for me to learn and discover more about myself, and i want to see God working in me through this!
Definitely there do are things i learn and grow in already..i learn to maintain the good attitude, i learn to accept and submit to what the leaders ask for or criticise about. I learn to handle rejected ideas... wow! that's really alot! yea, thank God He made me grow :D
Learned to handle stress as well and saw my weaknesses in handling emotions, not prioritising my schedule, passiveness in many things... remembered God revealed to me that this will be season of exploration and self-discovery..so its half come to pass already i think, and the most important thing for me to do now is to make sure that i really make sense...and i keep the experience with me and not leave them behind..

Want to really remind myself to always go back to God's love which compels me to do whatever i'm doing =)
