I did talked to Dwan about my role in security, that he has decided to talk to Kok yew about taking me off as the Outing 2IC and the birthday IC, so that i will not have too much commitment. Though my role in secuirty may not seem important but i believe that in everywhere that we serve in we have to serve with excellence because ultimately you are serving God. In every position that you are in no matter whether you are the IC or not, it is an important position, there is a reason for you or for that position to exist in the first place. Just like how the church is as strong as its congregation, the ministry is only as strong as the members serving in each different position. It is the little things that you do now that will determine the greater things that you will do in the future. Do you think that if i take lightly the position of standing behind the curtain, just because its not a significantly important position, God will empower me to do greater things for Him? Do you entrust someone with 1000 if he cant even keep 50? There you go.
I really thank God for everything that He has done for me, the opportunities that He has given me throughout the years and till now where He has brought me to. It's amazing how He can change things around. I truly believe that greater things are going to happen this year round. Certain things are there to distract but when you know that its not time then you better just stay focus. Don't go for it till God tells you that it is time. God answers every prayer, sometimes He delays it for your good.

Some have fallen on stoney ground
But there was only one that caught his attention
He scooped it up and gave it undivided attention
The seed grew into a beautiful plant
Like any other plant it has it's flaws
But only in his eyes, it was perfect
He continued to take care of it every single day
Time has gone by in a blink of an eye
The plant has grown into a tree
Like any other plant it's flaws are still there
Magnified by it's mass
But after so many years
He has learnt how to appreciate it
Both have met each other's needs
Just by looking at the tree every single day satisfied his need
And the tree was watered, cared for and being loved
The man grew old as time passed by
The tree was still as beautiful as ever
On his bed, he looked out of the window
He thought to himself, that is the most beautiful tree he has ever seen in his life.
Memories began to flood his mind
How he had another one before this
But it died even before it became a plant
He said "But none can compare to this one!"
He knew it was time,
But he just want another glimpse at the tree
Tiredness over took his passion

Ministering in Faith
He put you where He put you because He wanted to put you there. All of us have to stay put where He puts us until He’s ready to move us. Everybody’s got their burden, just in different areas. Your ministry does matter to God. It is a significant part of the kingdom. What matters is not what anybody else thinks. What matters is, Am I pleasing to God? Can I stand before Him and have Him say, `Well done, thou good and faithful servant. You were believing when you didn’t see it. You were obeying when you didn’t understand it, giving when you didn’t have it, and persevering when you didn’t feel like it and thanking before you got it, and trusting when you didn’t get it.” These all receive their confirmation. That’s the real question. Is my ministry being performed in faith?
