Patience

Hi readers, just to let you guys know that I don't update my blog frequently but when I did, it's not out of because I'm too free, or because I felt like doing it. But its because that particular story I want to share mean a lot to me.

So if you followed me on my Twitter account and still awake to read my tweet in the midnight recently, then you seriously need to change your habit of sleeping late. Haha, just joking but its true, at least try sleeping a little earlier than that la. Me? I insomnia, different case :) Ok, back to twitter, if you have read those you might have seen tweets about changes, about God, about life and stuff. Yes, I'm boring like that. Problem? Well, if it sounded boring to you guys then too bad because its what going through my mind.

Before I start the main story for today's blog just wanna give you guys a little preview on what happened before this story comes in. As you might know I've believed in Christ for 2 years coming. Along the walk in Christ up till today, a lot have happened. Like I went to church camp for the 1st time in my life, I joined fellowship every Friday in KPC back in Klang. I joined a few Sunday service only due to my family disapproval. I came to Unimas, Sarawak to further my study and now I'm serving in Hope Church Kota Samarahan. These things happened in 2 years time and all I can say, time flies really fast. But I have a struggle, I grow so slow in Christ. WHY??!

This really is hard because seeing people grow so fast and I'm like so slow. Is it I don't have enough faith? Is it that I don't pray enough? Is it that I'm too sinful? Is it that God don't love me enough? Why?

But I guess I've found an answer to these questions, Patience. To be patience is to be able to believe in God's timing. How can God don't love me? Because it is written in the book of John 3:16. It says, For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not be perish but have eternal life. Yes, God loved me, I'm very sure with that. The reason I grow slow is that I only give him my small amount of commitment. Like 20%? Or maybe 30%?

My focus last semester when I'm in Sarawak wasn't completely God, but life, fun, freedom, enjoyment and many more. I only see God on Sunday service, that's like what? Less than 10% of my time in a week. How God is gonna give me more when I only give Him that little? All this question stucked me during my semester break and I found that particular answer. Therefore I promised myself, that I want to give more to God this coming semester. So when I'm here, I tried to join Friday prayer meeting, Saturday lifegroup, and Sunday service. Make it so far and I'm gonna say, amazing things happened when you chose to give God more.

Long stories from above but here comes what I want to thank God. As of this week, I'm officially a member of Hope Kota Samarahan. Then I've created a better bond with my church brothers and sisters through the time we spent together during our weekly activities. N I'm chosen to run a simple lifegroup as a chairperson for the 1st time today. These little things might sounds pointless but to me it means a lot. Because these are the things that God has provided me to serve Him more. N I'm more than grateful to be able to serve Him.

I believed God has a plan for me here in Sarawak and I'm ready to tell God that, "Challenge accepted!"

Thanks for reading. Just for you to know, I typed all these out without drafting anything, so it might be very messy but I guess you get the idea of the post right? If its too messy that you can't get what I mean, let me know and I'll improve in the future. Thank you for your time. I might not know who you are but I appreciate you very much as you read through this boring pictureless post. Thank you.

God bless you.

Regards,
Pangky Pang
