what is often the enemy of the best is what is good.
many of us are just too comfortable with where we are that we find it too difficult to move out of it and go to a place where our potential can be further released and developed, our characters being moulded and capacity being expanded.
been talking to various people and i find this a common issue across the board.
even for many areas of life i do see it quite evidently.
i think it is sth that most singaporeans would struggle with since we are wired up to be rather apathetic people...
laoda was telling me how sheltered i am.
and it's true that i am really rather pampered by the people around me.
and somehow, i really took my own sweet time in rising up to become a leader.
it is really more comfortable having a covering then to do without it.
but it is only when i come to this point and make a decision that i don't want to cut myself short of my destiny then am i stepping the best God has for me this season.
serving God in the capacity i am now is good but not the best...
even for a friend of mine, the decision she has to make now has great bearings on her life.
she could choose to continue settling in ntu, where she is so comfortably settled down with newfound friends or going on to UK on a scholarship to pursue her teaching career.
Been facing with resistance, it seems much easier for her to just stay here.
But is that the best for her life?
she knows and i know that it isn't.
to all my members and friends, don't be afraid to dream BIG, of scoring the As, GPA of 4 and above, being leaders in your schools.
No dream is too BIG for God to bring it to past.
if you can dream it, you can have it!
even in the area of relationships...
2 friends of mine that i know off could easily have chosen to get into a relationship and ignore all the consequences of their action.
they could have not gone through great turmoil in their lives and just stayed at the level of relationship they were at.
but yet, they knew that it wasn't the best yet for their lives.
they needed to develop more and eventually if to be, to give the other the best of themselves.
but more than that, they have so many dreams waiting to be fulfilled.
there were just so much that each wanted done and neither wants to be shortchanged of their destinies.
they are serving and doing things that are making impact, which is good.
but they are not satisfied, they want the best.
i believe that the decision made by them wasn't easy at all.
it cost them something.
and a dream worth pursuing would always cost you something.
stepping out of our comfort zone costs us something.
but it is when we pay the price and step out of it then can we step up to the next level
jia you and let's all run this race well reaching for the best that is in store for all of us.
there is so much things that we can all do in our lifetime, leaving a footprint in time and a legacy for the future, being a HISTORY MAKER!
on another note, let's not use following God's will be an excuse of not progressing.
After all, it's when we move that God moves...
