Public vs Private battles

 On Saturday, I met up with my VJC friend Cassandra. We had a good time catching up, and her family even brought me to dinner!

My church friend Joshua shared with me his personal battles in following Christ. Then I realised that I too have my own private battles -- and I have been avoiding them.

The person people see me as is an image-- confident, intelligent and strong. But in reality, this is me-- a nervous-wreck, fool and weakling.

I have been ignoring my personal battles, because the public ones are so much easier to handle. All they need is a little hyperbole and cosmetics to make everything fine. But my inside is so corrupt that once again it cries out to be dealt with. I have a problem and I pray for God to help me through it.

Once again, today, I will make an effort to fight it.

Memories 5-- Fading away

Lots of my memories I shared were good ones so far. Let me share a sad one. Two years ago, I made a good friend. We did a lot of things together. Then in second year, we just separated. By no deliberate fault of my or my friend's own, we just drifted apart.

Sometimes, I blame myself for it, yet I know I should not. It's a reminder that I should put God first in the relationship.

I guess, I have changed and learnt better from this. Together with the lessons from Wales, I learnt to be more cautious in engaging the opposite gender, and watch out for temptations.

And I hope it will not take another failed relationship for me to remind me that.
