to be honest i was really quite pissed with my sis today. her little decision to take 1 hr just to eat a bowl of noodles(and she didnt even finish it) kinda screwed up my plans for the day, as i went down to wait for her so that she could have her choir practice and then send her back to my aunt's place at yishun.

nevermind about that. though i did feel quite bad when i scolded her, nearly bringing her to tears. i was talking to her on the bus on the journey to the condo. i remember asking her why does she wanna be a christian, partly to see what goes on through the mind of a 11 yr old when she makes such a decision, and partly to find out the reason behind her faith.

i guess all of us have different reasons on why we choose to serve God, why we go to church. some maybe fellowship, a sense of purpose, a grateful heart, or even maybe a free morning on sundays. i duno what your reason is, but i found mine some time ago during one of the QT nights. though many a times we challenge that reason, be it with the 'could haves' and 'what ifs', but each time looking at the 'what has been' i am fully convinced and sort of glad in a way only i probably understand.

had a good talk with bruce over dinner just now. haha thank God he stays so awesomely near to me, finding company for a meal is just 8 digits and 15 mins away. we shared about our own experiences with God and some decisions that were made, and shared our own reason. i was very encouraged to hear his story, and really questioned if i would have done the same if i were in his situation. i think maybe God let me have it easy. haha i duno.

and as i sat beside my sis on the bus to my aunt's place, hearing her share about why she wants to go to church now, it kinda all made sense for me. it made the many CGs i had to miss to take her to service, the missed plans, the rainy sunday morning sleep-ins, and the weaknesses that we have to endure of each other, all worth it.

i'm sure glad i found my reason.
