A Place of Freedom
A place of Destiny
What will result when the two clash
Awaken the chaos within
The point where light and dark converges

19th July :: Service :: Church :: Felicia’s sis birthday
Got
Up at around 8 plus am to give a good morning, haha, 3 hrs of sleep makes Keith a hyperactive guy.
What I have learnt from this week sermon? Learning about integrity this week made me realize that there are really a lot of aspects of me that I need to change in order to make myself worth of God. It is not that we are not worthy of God, but we may have flaws that may cause us to break God’s heart. We need to change ourselves so that we will avoid hurting God.
I will start it of first by talking about the talent God gave us. Yes we may be given a wide variety of different talents by God, but is our character really matured enough to handle them? As we nurture our God given talents, are we also building our character? If we just focus on our talents and neglect our character, we will not be able to grow in our spiritual life. Our character is the infrastructure that we build to hold up our lives. If our inner life is left undeveloped as we focus the spot light on the outer life, where will this lead our spiritual life? In most cases, it may be to ruin. And that the greater the talents and gifts we are given by God, the greater is our responsibility to developing our character. Like what was said in Spiderman movie – “With great power, comes great responsibility.” But I would say – “With great gifts and talents, comes even great responsibility to build our character.”
In this world we walk in, our reputation and our talents attract the people around us, the people of the world. But it is our in build character that will make us right with God. What we have of the world cannot be brought into eternity; it is only our character that will remain when our lives fade away. Reputation and talents can be learnt in a short time, but it is our character that we need to spend this entire lifetime to build and to get it right with God’s will and plan for us all. Like what Bro Tim said, reputation is what that is engraved on our tomb stone, but our character is what the angels will say about us in front of the throne of God.
We must build up our integrity now, if we don’t, we will never be able to get rid of the little faults in our characters. And it is these little faults that will cause cracks in our character, and in the end, leading to the breaking down of our character. In short, we all need to live honest and reliable lives, refuse to be persuaded by others to do what we know is wrong, to give into peer pressure and to start to focus in the small areas of our lives. It is in these small areas in our lives that we tend to neglect and it is these areas that will break our integrity. If we are not able to be trusted in these small areas of our lives, how are we to be trusted in even greater areas? We are called to live God fearing lives and by building our characters from this moment on, we will be a little closer to achieving that.
After cell group and praise & worship session, we all went over to feli’s place for her sis’s birthday. Haha, I had quite a bit of fun playing with her dog and rabbit, cos her two cats were too shy to come out to play.
Got home, sleeping all the way back on the bus and nearly falling asleep while doing qt.
18th July :: Guitar lessons :: late night movie :: Dark knight
It really was a great but depressing day, don’t ask ok… I went over to my dad’s for some guitar lessons. It was great la, but my dad was kinda eyeing my new guitar haha. Cos his guitar is about 30 to 40 yrs old la.. Almost twice my age lor, but he really kept it in good condition and everything.
After that I took a train down to PS and then walked down to the Cathay for my midnight movie session with Shawn and Jeremy. The show we watch is Dark Knight, and whao, it really is a great show and I don’t mind watching it again. We ended around 2 plus am and the 3 of us went out for supper, doing crazy stuff with the loan car Jeremy was driving.
I got home around 4 am, and did my qt and everything. So I slept around 5 plus, still feeling worried and depress la… Hai…
