How to grow God!! Its tough!!!

Dear brothers, its VaZe here again

I apologise, due to my prelims and my computer crashes, i'm unable to actively blog... But now, I'm back.

Jus a short update of me life... Prelims have jus ended... I have another about 7 weeks more to A levels... Once after this 1 week break, gonna cheong and mug again....

Today.... I'll be sharing a little on how to grow in God....
When I first started out, its tough man i tell you... I gotta reschedule everything in my life, make time out for every sunday service and friday cell group, attend all the SOLs and conferences.... An effort needs to be made in order to kick start the momentum to grow....

Next... QUIET TIME!!! This is yet another challenge for me... I must admit that until now, i still dun have a very very zai and steady, everyday quiet time... I still miss it on some of the days... But what challenges me is when i started reading the Word and begin to "force" myself to understand the word, setting aside my "prime time" to do quiet time so that i wun fall asleep during QT, going to college early so that i can really do QT without any distractions... Penning down some thoughts that i have so that i can keep God's word in my heart and remember it during critical times of my life, where i dun have the bible with me...

U see, the key to grow is an effort and sacrifice that has to be made.... We can jolly well use our time to do other things such as playing and phoning and chit chatting, but we chose to give it all for God... Keyword: DISCIPLINE!!! u need to ahve a heck amount of that in order to go on and on despite having difficulties surrounding u...

When i first started quiet time in college every morning from 0700 to 0730.... its tough.... I gotta wake up at around 0545 and set off at 0615 to reach there on time so that i wun make God wait for me... (Imagine that a king has to wait for you!!). Sometimes i need to take a cab down if I'm really running late, money is spent!!! Sometimes i have unfinished work to do... and its very tempting to give up the QT for the sake of the unfinished work.... But i still say that this 1/2 hr is consecrated for the Lord, i wun touch it regardless of work.... If i cannot finish my work, so be it... i"ll resume after the QT session....

I hope u see that it takes effort, discipline and perserverance to start doing things... Looking back, i really thank God that i've made this effort otherwise i wun be well equipped with the Word to press in thru the difficulties and storms ahead in life with more ease and assurance...
DUN GIVE UP!!! Try and try again till u find a QT method and timing that suits urself, it varies from ppl to ppl...
