i just had a late night 'chat' with my boss who told me to rest early (apparently he doesn't know i've been sleepless past nights).. anyway, i mentioned about church meeting (cos i just came back from it and working on my daily work report now).. his reply is ‘你信仰宗教'and‘心态会比较'.. of course, my response is about me enjoying what i do which is more important, not comparison. it really makes me ponder what does he mean by having a comparative attitude? did i interpreted it wrongly or i'm just over-sensitive? i really hope i interpreted his words correctly and with a corrent reply..
i really not the 'comparing' type of Christian.. perhaps in the past, yes, but now having been through 2008, i really it's all in God's timing and plan. very often, human fails to see our similiarities and focus on our differences, hence making such a divisional judgement. i also believe the way to share Gospel is not comparing faiths, not theological debate, but living your life as testimony.
of course, i'm pretty sure every Christian will agree with me - being a good living testimony for God. but to be frank, it's a forever-daunting-task for every human being. i'm sure you'll agree to 'we are not perfect' statement when you are in that 'we' but how forgiving can you be to the others?
Christians, including myself, experience ups and downs of life, hipes and pits in various cycles. trust me, it is very tiring trying to live out a good testimony but it's a goal we all strive at. for example, i was able to inspire some with my 'Bible knowledge' yet i can confess i also have my faithless and giving-up moments with the Word. i know i've been hogging some of you in your prayer discipline yet i also confess i've my prayerless months which my spirit is so dried up.. does that disappoint you? making you think i'm a fake or comparative judgemental?.. cos i'm also a human like you - imperfect.
