LifeUnited Church has been established for 1 month and 2 weeks. It was born out of obedience towards God's purpose and the support from a strong 30+ people in ex-DT Zone. Well, I'm one of the 30 that made the decision to follow Pastor. Till now, and I can even confidently say, to the far future; I do not regret this decision to follow the calling of God in order to take a step closer to that purpose which has been set for me. It is indeed a new day for those who are in LifeUnited. New environment, new attitude, new mindset and new vision. It's far more than just a "new day".

In this season, I'm very glad to be surrounded by supportive friends whom understands and rejoice with me. To be honest, I secretly expect quite a number of people who will throw their doubts and rejection onto me when they know about the decision. To my surprise, none of this secret expectation happened. Or well, at least it's not shown on the surface. I really thank God for the favour from friends that are really close to me. Most importantly, be able to see with me the reason of my choice.

Back to this new environment, it's a new start for me as well. Taking up Media Team as part of the church's ministry, it is a learning journey which I never regret walking on. I can honestly say that it isn't my best choice that I would wanna make for a ministry in this new church. And probably not my primary ministry considering my SHAPE/talents. But, it does mould me in various aspects of my life which I feel God is doing His work to prepare me for the future plans. One would be the constant mindset of having a breakthrough in what we have. Never to settle for the "ok" but aim to move to "great". Without that mindset, we can never move forward and closer to the final destination that is set for us. I'm sure that God intends to make LifeUnited an awesome church.

The other thing which I would "rant" about is the time that I've lost in catching up with my Life Group members. Due to "reach early and going off late", I've much lesser time to spend on the members. I kinda hate that feeling where I have to leave earlier when at lunch, or only to join in pretty much later for dinner where everybody is almost done. It really doesn't feel as good as joining them throughout. Sometimes I do wonder if I've gave my best in connecting with them considering the time I can spare. And it doesn't help when you're a people-oriented person. But I guess the meaning of sacrifices comes in and to trust in God for the plans that He allowed to happen. Praying that He will help/guide me to build strong relationship with my Life Group members with the shorter time available to spare.

Well. LifeUnited is definitely a place where I've grown even more and I believe I will step closer to my purpose which He has put in place. Regardless of all the challenges ahead, I will press in together with the great bunch of people who are running this journey.
