Random posting...

Just a random thought. Attended 2 wakes in 2 days.. How fragile life is... Seeing the strength put up by the loved ones to 'hide' the loss really admires me. The way you want to tell others 'I'm okay. Dun need to worry about me,' cracking lame jokes and putting a smile on your face despite the tiredness and the situation.

It's almost like you could sense the fear and sadness fm the person over the loss but yet the person has the strength to present everything's gonna be alright, life still goes on look. It's not about disguising the loss, but it's really bringing the zoe life of God into practical I feel. Really like the heroes of the Bible singing praises to God at their most down time, giving glory to God despite the tiredness effortlessly, having the necessary countenance to show all things are alright etc. The +ve attitude you carry. All represents the love, strength and grace one carries through God.

My heart really went to her as I was looking at her fragile face, not slping for the last 40hrs, hanging on to ensure things are fine and all goes well etc. I could see a fragile face, yet a strong spirit with the attitude of able to do all things. Source of motivation: Christ...
HM, if u r looking at this, i really admire your spirit and indeed you are my role model! Thank God for such a strong person like yourself that really supports and strengthens even in the toughest of the situation. Hats goes all out for you.
Certainly your dad is now enjoying his fellowship with God now, don't worry ya? :)


Leadership, what is it all about really? Choosing to lead to serve, or serve to lead?

As you set off as a leader, what kind of image are you posing to those under your charge. As someone who leads, you have to be one that gets prayed up and disciplined in life because all that matters is setting your life right for others to follow or learn from.
A leader is out to serve and give, with the right mindset of wanting to bless and bringing others up closer to their destiny.

How do you categorise as a leader over others? When you have followers and those who listen to you.
What's a leader without anyone to lead? But what really attracts one to be under the authority of the other? Similarly like Jesus, what attracted the multitudes to listen to Him or to seek after Him wherever He goes?
Where's your area of influence? how strong are they on the people you know?

Followers follow a leader because he is able to provide something which the followers can or hope to learn from, thus value adding what's in their lives. Be it spiritual teachings, talents in music etc. Because the followers are deprived and want to know more, that's why leaders with those criterias are chased upon. Because of what they can offer.

Comparing 2 masters (one gd and one bad) and you are the slave waiting to be bought over, (the gd master can pay less than the bad maxter for the same slave and can teach more as well), which oone will u Want to be.

A leader's never easy. you must have the capability to meet the needs of those under you, serving those around you and those who have authority over you. In short, a 360 degree leader.
Yet it is never about just serving and fulfilling the mins and quotas. It's about meeting needs and being the best of who we are and in others.
what's a person when he or she loses his or her soul? If we get too technical and less relational, how different are we from robots?
Yet as human it's natural for us to understand each other and meet needs out of the love God has for us. What's there to hate when love exists?

Random posting today... Till next time. :)
