Being focused means not to be distracted

I felt today's sermon was speaking right to my heart, cutting right into my spirit... Holy Spirit was reminding me of the weaknesses and the flaws in me that I need to change. It is the time, the moment.....

This is a summary of what I learnt and heard from God today. I feel so blessed and I made a decision in my heart to change:

Pastor Kong talked abt being single-minded and when we are focused in our mind, our glory and creativity of God is released in us. Indeed, we have a life assignment fro God. Success in life is all about being focus minded. Focus brings energy and power to everything that you do. Jesus is the best example that we can ever learnt from, He is our role model.

3 things we need to build on in building our life assignment: Our STRENGTH, our DISTINCTIVENESS and our REVELATION. And its all a choice that we need to make.

The definition of distraction - means to have your attention away drawn away to something other than your purpose. And this creates confusion, which drains energy out and away from you.

So in conclusion, the 3 Don'ts:
a) Dont get distracted by INTERIM SUCCESSES
b) Dont get distracted by COMPETITION
c) Dont get distracted by the PAIN OF LIFE

tHEre is so much to learn just from this one hour of sermon. My mind was already totally blown away as I sat there, hearing Pst revealing point after point, precept after precept...

I saw how I have been getting so upset and jealous in my heart, due to some arrangements at my workplace, that really causes me to think of even getting out and find a new job. I was thinking of the prospects of stayin' in this job, at how far would I be able to go given the opportunities that are set ahead of me for NOW.... with so many outstanding people in my team, and I was not a homegrown, my subconscious mind always and keep telling me that its too difficult for me to survive.

But when Pst asked us to let go of our distraction by the competition and jealousy, I could felt the Holy Spirit nudging me, telling me, "HEY! Pastor talking abt u! " Yes, I have my revelation today. I also can shine, cos my light will not be hidden as long as I perform my best in the area that God has put me in. Never mind that there are so many smart and outstanding people. As I focus on my strength, on my distinctiveness, I will be able to shine too!

I want to shine ever brighter than before. I need to be focused! Yes, that will be my resolution from now on. I must not look down at the small talent that God has placed in my hands. I have the responsibility to let it shine!

Thank you Pastor Kong, Thank You Jesus, Thank You City Harvest Church!
