living for God

Had to wake up really early today and be in school at 7.30am to help out with the Excel fest in school. Helped to 'train' the students at 2 of the booths, telling them how to explain the games to the visitors when they came later. Got a chance to talk to the 4 of them, and they are really good kids, very genuine kids with good hearts. Sometimes their maturity at their age really impresses me, 1 of the boys told me that he was really playful last year and had to go to EM3 this yr. And after that he actually realised the importance of studying, he said that by studying we could actually help Singapore to remain prosperous and maybe make the country even richer and he hopes to be the president one day so he can help Singapore become the best country in the world. I was really impressed cos he's only in P6 and he already has such big dreams, and even considers the benefits of others, when many other kids are only thinking about themselves at this point, even those from the better classes. Truly, God uses the weak and not the strong and He reveals things to those who are humble. I guess that's one reason why their form teacher really loves them, and they really respect him a lot as well and are willing to do things for him. It really reminded me abt tonight's cg message about the mighty men of God who served King David with all their hearts and souls. These men didn't start out well, many were probably running away from King Saul too, but David loved them and in turn, they loved him too and were willing to lay down their lives for him. I want to lay down my life for Jesus too, cos i know i owe Him too much for paying with His life on the cross and dying for us.
