Dear BBRs...

Hello,

I visited many of your blogs today and realized how far I am away from your lives. Once, we were close to the point we see each other everyday, eat together, study together, create havoc together. There was a time, you guys were my only friends. I'm so sorry that I wasn't there for you while you go thru hell. It sadens my heart to read from your blogs the pain you are going thru. Yet, I know you guys are gold that has gone thru the fire. Nothing will tear you down nor force you to compromise. There are many many things out there for the Barbarians to conquer. Stand therefore and do not lose heart! The battles may be the lost but the ultimate VICTORY belongs to us! Women by birth, Barbarian by choice...1 2 3 yes! Haha. I love you all. See you guys at Jingzhi's bday party!! Add me to your blogs k?

Growing up with you,
chicken

Chasing?

Wendy shared something with us once that started me thinking. 25-28 is a age group when individuals start to feel rather lost. Especially if they have no career, no life partner, it will seem that they are not really going anywhere. That is why Wendy wanted the leaders to do planning with those 23, 24 year olds. Career goals, relationship goals. In another words, it's time to start planning for your life. Then she moved on to say that, if we are "chionging" all the way for our ministry and not really doing much for the career and relationship aspect of our lives, and when we reach 26, 27 and realize that we have nothing, we will really start to regret, or even blame God. Ok, ok. I know you must be thinking, but we must put God first wat, the rest dun need to worry, it will be added onto us. But pls remember, ministry and God is very different. God wants us to be wise and live a balance life!

Honestly when Wendy was sharing, I couldn't really relate. I wasn't even 21 yet at that time (erm...that was august i think). I feel that 26, 27 is so far away, I have time to buy and time to lose. I'm still a student, not much of a career to talk about. But yesterday, a friend of mine shared with me her story. And I begin to feel that it is really important to put our priorities right when we start out in the path of adulthood. Many people tell me that once you pass 21, the rest of the years will start to pass very fast. So fast that the next time you stop to think, it may be too late. So, knowing how unsteady I am in my decision making, I think it's really time to sit down and plan for my future. I begin to realize that maybe it is really not time to get attached yet. There are many things that if I miss once in life, it may never come back. Romance is something my husband can give me in all the later part of our life together, but education, ministry, kick start of a career, it may never come back again. Thus, I'm writing this to remind myself to chase after the correct things in life at this point of my life.

Set priorities right and move with the set priorities.

But most importantly, let God be the One that guides our path. He is our life-giver, let Him be your life-planner!

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
Matt 6:33
