Learning A New Human Skill(Lesson#1)

Follow The Anointing Within and Rise Up in Godly Leadership

This sermon is awesome!
I have learnt that one shouldn't let other people's actions determine how they react.
In the same token, one shouldn't let external circumstances control how he should feel.

Let me share with you my blog that I have created on my Friendster account.

"Don't let people's action determine how you react" - Jesus

I heard this line in my ipod when I was about to get so really, reaaaally pissed off with the people in front of me on the escalator .
I was rushing my way down to it so I can reach my bus. I was late!
And there they were , they just stood still as if waiting for something to wipe them all out.
Man, if you're in a hurry , things can really get so icky!

So what am I trying to say?
Read this line again..."Don't let people's action determine how you react" - Jesus

It has something to do with what Jesus said in the Bible when he said, "When a person wants you to carry his burden one mile...go carry his burden another 2miles..(Sorry I couldn't find the exact verse.But will find it out soon.)

Another human skill that I need to practice and get hold on to!
I learnt, this can also be applied in some personal, senseless circumstances.
I can think of many.
Like...
* when your internet slows down = impatience, irritability
* annoying boss , bitchy colleagues = resignation letter
* rejection from someone you love or like = loss of self-esteem, sadness
* career going nowhere = frustrations,depressions
* spotting sexy girls/ boys = excitement, flirtatious
* F E A R = S T R E S S
* boredom = boredom, can even lead to one's death
* an ex betraying your love = anger, hatred, unforgiveness
* salary comes after 2 weeks and atm is dwindling = lock up in one's room, no more clubbing, DOOMED! (aaaw!)

It's endless actually!
And it's just so pathetic on how things around us can control our emotions in some ways..
Unconsciously, it's swallowing and tearing us apart ...each moment getting and feeling more like being in the pit of hell.

That's why I want to keep this thought in me .. I want this to mold me so it can set me free!
And if by chance, by Grace..I'd be able to reach this state.
Wow! It's VICTORY!!!
and that's what living in this mad world truly means!

Then I'd become a hero(in my own little ways)...and I can save the world!

Thank you Jesus!

    When I am rushing and there are people blocking my way, I just open my mouth and say *Excuse me* ........
    I don't get worked up over non important things like my way being blocked. I do however, get worked up over innocents being killed or murdered, child rapes, terrorism etc.

    I say Big things start from small things..I used to be so stressed out with murders, terrorisms too. BUt one day, I just woke up hearing these words.."hey, there's terrorism inside of you..and u are murdering yourself with your own thoughts..Better work it out before it's too late!"

    Now, I'm more concerned of what's going on inside of me.And if I cannot take it..I just run to Him and let Him be in control.
    It's not what or how I feel that matters anyway...it's all about Him,right?
