Stepping Stone 1!

First entry into my new blog...
hmmm... well just wanted to start this up cos i just think i need to express my feelings more especially since exams are around the corner and plus bottling up will just make me feel really really uncomfortable!
so yeah!

well... this blog i wanna make it special! in a sense that i will update this everytime i feel that there is a need...
such as: when i learn new lessons in my spiritual walk with God! thus the name "stepping stone..."
yeah really sometimes its good to share this especially for me... i dunno how to be kinda verbal with wad i have on my mind so i think this medium would help me greatly! like seriously...

okay so this is lesson 1! everybody say yay!
hahaha!
okay okay lets start!

well today had shepherding with marcus!
well it was kinda refreshing at the same time interesting!
we have so many things in common yet we are so different in so many levels!
but most of the time we think the same thing...

anyways yeah! so we were at vivo ate LJS then went to pacific coffee or something like that!
really interesting place drank milk outside and stuffs! haha

so this is where the learning somes in!
marcus was telling me bout using each and every failure not as a discouragement but a stepping stone!
stepping stone to get closer to success and God
and as he said that! really i was thinking of the things that have failed miserably in my ministry and pastoral sides...
like the time where the people under me just backslided just like that!
or when my usher group was facing some problems that as a young leader i didnt know how to handle!
all these are really examples of how i really used the failure as a stepping stone to trust God more? to think bout more risky and outrageous things that i can do to get to my goal!

this really got me thinking like a lot...

then he also mention bout...
whenever we feel stress or troubled bout something, that is the time where we will grow the most!

but we really have to think in what areas do we wanna see growth in...
in my case recently im becoming more and more troubled and burden because the exams are round the corner and well i dont think i have been studying enough and when marcus told me that...
it really got me going like why am i so stress? i have a Big God and he is great! i should know better! as long as i do my best and try to study my hardest God will do the rest!
cos God wants us to glorify his name!
so i gotta learn to sometimes take a risk or 2 not just small little risk but risk that are major risk that will make you depend on God... Risk that will make me so use to failure that we will not take it as something that discourages us but something that encourages us motivates us to do better and greater things for the BIG MAN!

so yup thatsbout it! this is just a summary i guess quite a long one but yeaH!
i think this would help people who are in the same situation as me!
hahah!
alright thats bout it!

PEACE!
SCOTT!
