Today, when Bishop Melter met me, he said “you are doing well, keep
it up”. I don't know why suddenly those words hit me a lot. Perhaps for
many reasons.
On the same day, I was reminded of the ugly side of
church life which it's sometimes I struggle a lot with. To be honest, anywhere you go, everyone has problem la.
Then also, sometimes I
tend to compare myself, the ministry and the church to others around
me.
At the same time, there are times I believe that even though things are well, it can be done better. There is this feeling which Bill Hybels put it well - "holy discontentment"
His words reminded me that God values our heart and faithfulness.
Perhaps God is speaking through those simple words from Bishop to remind
me to look up instead of looking everywhere.
Past few weeks
have been crazy but fruitful journey. So much to learn but I'm
treasuring the journey.
In all things, give thanks to God
