I was reminded

I was seeking an answer for a question that I long asked before: why did I become apathetic towards God? Is it because of my plethora of things that I want? Behind the race, I decided to find the answer in life game- a life impact ministries organized in my hometown. In order to rediscover my life purpose, I took a break in my application process.


And now, I had it: the answer.

"Today I am stepping across the line. I'm tired of waffling, and I'm finished with wavering. I've made my choice, the verdict is in; and my decision is irrevocable. i'm going God's way. there's no turning back now!

I will live the rest of my life serving God's purposes with God's people on God's planet for God's glory. I will use my life to celebrate his presence, cultivate his character, participate in his family, demonstrate his love, and communicate his World.

Since my past has been forgiven and I have a purpose for living and a home awaiting in heaven, I refuse to waste any more time or energy on shallow living, petty thinking, trivial talking, thoughtless doing, useless regretting, hurtful resenting, or faithless worrying. Instead, I will magnify God, grow to maturity, serve in ministry, and fulfill my mission in the membership of his family.

Because this life IS preparation for the next, I will value worship over wealth, 'we' over 'me', character over comfort, service over status, and people over possessins, position, and pleasures. i know what matters most, and i'll give it all I've got. I'll do the besst I can with what I have for Jesus Christ today.

I won't be captivated by culture, manipulated by cirtics, motivated by praise, frustrated by problems, debilitated by temptation, or intimidated by the devil. I'll keep running my race with my eyes on the goal, not the sidelines or those running by me. When times get tough, and I get tired, I won't back up, back off, back down , back out or backslide. I'll just keep moving forward by GOd's grace. I am spirit-led, purpose-driven and mission-focused, so I cannot be bought, I will not be compromised, and I shall not quit until I finish the race.

I'm a trophy of God's amazing grace, so I will be gracious to everyone, grateful for everyday, and generous with everything that God entrusts to me.

To my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, I say: However, whenever, wherever, and whatever you ask me to do, my answer in advance is yes! wherever you lead and whatever the cost, I'm ready. Anytime. Anywhere. Anyway. Whatever It takes Lord; whatever it takes! I want to be used by you in such a way, that on that final day I'll hear you say. "Well done, thou good and faithful one! Come on in, and let the eternal party begin!""

This race is not just about who can run faster at first, but who can run towards the end successfully.

I had learnt not to give up at whatever cost. I can achieve a lot of incredible thing as long as I believe in it. Though I was in debt of $9000 during the game, with great determination, I was able to turn it around and maximized my profit with the least that I had. If I gave up at that particular moment, I might just get killed.

First lesson that I had learnt is NEVER GIVE UP! I had given up once and it ended with remorse. I had 10 days; each day can be as meaningful as 30 days that they have. May God bless those who are busy in their application for not forgetting God's presence.

All the best! I won't repeat the mistake that I had made in Lifegame. Thanks God it was just a game; and Thanks God for giving me a second chance to play my life.
