Serving others then yourself:)

Last Sunday Sermon was about serving God and His people.It seems like a basic fact which everyone knows but how many of us really put it into practice?

Even if we did, how many of us are doing with a genuine heart?

I must admit that many times i serve myself more than others:(

According to the worldly thinking, the person who is served and blessed by others always is the most 'xing fu' person around. And everyone will look at him/her in awe, hoping that we will be like that too one day..

But actually, according to bible, the one who has the ability to serve others is the most 'xing fu' person around instead. Cos he/she is healthy, capable enough to do this and that for the ppl..

This struck me alot as i had that kind of worldly thinking as well!

Coming to think of it, won't u want to be the one who still can serve the church and ppl than the one in wheelchairs or even on the bed, being fed by others?

As our God has very good sense of humor, He actually put me into real situation to see whether i really understand the true meaning of it..

I got a call from my manager, Tracey that she wanted me to work half day on wed and another half day on Sunday. This means that i wont get any higher pay and also i wont have any day off for this week!

To make it even worse, i asked her for subsidy on some bus fees and she rejected me..

My first impression is: Kiam Siap!

But God reminded me about serving others! How often will she ask me to work on sunday? She must be really short of workers then only she will request for it!

And so, i accepted it willingly! Amen!

Father, i did well right?? hehe..
