Met JoyceTan for shepherding this evening, and just as usal, I enjoy talkin' to her. I could just share my heart out and not get bothered by how she'd see me. The teaching came in handy and on the right time- 'Mastering the art of Possibility'
Indeed, the primary reason why we think that 'it's impossible' , 'will never make it' or 'sure die', is beacause our focus is wrong. We think about the outcome, think about the things that we have to sacrifice in the process, think about how we should have worked harder or how things would have turned out better if we hadn't made the wrong choice when the last thing we'd consider to think and do about is to take hold of today. Ironic, isn't it?
I shall just stop allowing myself to dwell into the 'I should have..'' state of mind and start shifting my focus to 'Now I will..'' I want to have Faith. Not Fear. The last thing I want is to let Fear outweighs my Faith. Hahaha, I remember giving a teaching to my caregroup about Faith and Trust in the Lord and I can still recall vividly that I said something which made them laugh but yet nod in agreement - ''Shut up and trust God''. Haha, I shall do just that.
