Do yoU likE chAngE? haha, i sure am oNe thAt dOesn't really likE change. The initial stage of tryinG to get usE to the change, or even the pre-change period i go through is usually the tOughest. Now i'm entering the last term of OCS, which is also the toughest i think. It'll be 23-24 weeks loNg, there'll be 2 overseas training, 1 of them is 2 weeks, the other is 3 weeks. *gasps*
*side note: No greater lovE by Racheal Lampa is really really nice.. *tears*, whenever i hear this, it feels what i'm going through is nOthinG compared to what Jesus wEnt through..* (oh i'm listening to thE sOng nOw.)
From nOw till the time i commission (if i don't get kiCked out that is), there'll bE lots of outfield missioNs, which means lots of timE sPEnt in thE jUngle. i doN't know a lot is hOw mUch lar, but i really dO hOpE it's nOt more than what i think. I've been able to attend megalifE for the past fEw wEEks causE it was the end of the term, so was morE relaxed. bUt as i eNter into this term, i don't know if i'm able to or whether it'll be likE when i just 1st entered, always unable to make it, which i dun want cause I missed yOu guys lots. I reallly really do.
Well, i'm nOt really lOokinG forward to boOkinG in later, but oh well, it just gotta hAppEn. =)
Anyway, i was like the "leader" sorta thing for my platoon (27 pple), and whatever instructions that werE passed dOwn i gotta lEt the platooN kNow. I've gotta always count for strength and stuff likE that. It's likE we're supposEd to report strength at a cErtain time, but the pplE always cOme down almost on the dot (which shldn't be cause timE is needed to count strength), and after many reminders, they still do it. It's likE i don't like to scold pple, nor nag at them, but i have to do it cause it's for thEir own good. likE punishing really isn't what i likE at all, especially whEn thEy are my felloW cadets. But it's like i do these for their own good, but they'll still do it though it's not to spite me, but it just happens. So it's likE i think i know a bit of hOw God feels. I don't think He likes punishing us, but He has to for our own good. And even thOugh we don't always sin to spite God or anything likE that, we still do. wEll, the oNly way i was thinkinG of when i was the "leader" on hOw to let the pplE i'm leading follow me willingly and do things is for them to respect/love me. I din have a lot of time to do that, but God certainly did it for us by sEndinG Jesus to die on thE cross for our sins. So thE next time yOu think yOu're gonna sin, or just feel like everything's just wrong, "who can i turn to?", look to the cross, look at His love, look for His embrace."No greater love than this
That You should lay down Your life
For someone such as me
I'd spend a lifetime wondering why..
The beauty of heaven is here in my heart
And i know there can be...
No greater love....
