I wish I could blog what I think. AS the process of thinking is in progress, I wish to blog every word. Hehehe. Then deletion of the unimportance is necessary. My thoughts are somewhere these lines:
Are Christians allowed to be competitive?
How do we survive in a competitive culture?
What should be our motivation?
What are the temptations?
How do we avoid the pitfalls of competition yet still giving God my best?
Singaporeans are known for their Kiasu-ness. My question is… are you not?
If you are, is your goal pure in giving God your best? or peer pressure? Striving for the approval of others? or a matter of Pride to be ahead than others?
If you are not, Have you been giving God your best? or being lazy?
“He mocks proud mockers but gives grace to the humble.” Pro 3:34
“We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise.” 2 Cor 10:12
“Never be influenced by the evaluation of men. Be careful not to follow the ideas of man. Get your value from God. Men have their way of despising small things but God uses them.”
“When God wants to do His great works, He trains somebody to be quiet enough, little enough and humble enough. Then, He uses that person.”
“Man’s chief end is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.”
