Let's run together!
Recently, I recalled something I've heard when I was growing up as a young christian...
People can, but I can't
Through the early years of growing up as a believer with my fellow church-mates wasn't easy with all the opinions we hear at times.
- Things like, "You are really on fire for God huh? I used to be too. But wait till you're here for another 2 years..."
- After serving in the ministry... "You're a CGL in CHC? My friend used to be one too. I'll give you 3 years, and you'd probably get tired of it..."
- Entering into NS: "People usually backslide after entering into army. If you can still attend church regularly you should be happy... Better not talk about ministry..."
- Going into the working place isn't much better too... "Now that you're finally going to experience working life, committing to Church & God wouldn't be feasible for you anymore..."
Others can live life casually... others can choose the easy way out... others can do whatever they want. But...
Others can but we can't.
I'm proud to be living amongst CG members, leaders and pastors that carries this conviction in their lives. Let's all run this race together!
