There are some people that simply are hi-bye. No matter how much i attempt to bring the friendship to a higher level, the notch simply won't budge. Afterall, it takes 2 hands to clap.

So why should i value hi-bye people more than those that are already there for me? Sometimes, i might have done so because i feel that i need to reach out with God's love. But by doing so, i might have neglected those that are there for me. These are those that will run WITH me, not behind.

How many such people do i have with me by my side? Not many really. And they should be valued the most cos they are not many! Above all else and other than God, my time, energy and finances should be invested in these people if i'm wise enough to think that way.

Pst YK made a very good point. We should not take Pastor Kong for granted. Just because he appears on stage every weekend or just because he is the senior pastor of the church doesn't mean that we can take his preaching and time for granted. To other churches like NewLife Church, they really treasure the times when pastor go over to preach. As much as they love the word of God, they also love the MAN of God! What's more for pastor in his own church in Singapore? Can we show that we love the MAN of God behind the Word of God by our actions?

During this season talking about sonship, i begin to ask myself: To what extent can i call myself a daughter? And i realize that i haven't really succeeded in being a true daughter to the person who has impacted my life the greatest, especially spiritually. I have to do more as a daughter should.

In many ways, I have been challenged by this woman of God (and still challenging) to face my fears and to leave my comfort zone. It is through such times that i'm guided in a silent way. Getting equipped bit by bit through the journey and having faith that it will bring me to somewhere one day.

The first thing i think about: 'hey, you can count on me'. Big things and small things. In fact, that's what he is to all of his friends. And it works only if that person is dependable ALL the time. And he is. He is consistency. I believe he will definitely become a leader to be much respected and loved. That day will not very long from now.

Long time pals since primary school. Whenever i've got problems, i can surely count on them. And vice versa. I thank God for spiritual sisters like them, it makes us look like Charlie's Angels. HAHA. I should invest more into their lives. Have not been communicating regularly with Joan cos she's studying overseas. More exchanges of emails and definitely more meet ups for the 3 of us when she's back!

These are the 7 people that made the greatest impact on me. Other than these people, would be my family and God. They are responsible in shaping me into who i am today.
