YESTERDAY was Easter Day and I had the honour to be invited to a church service by an ex-colleague. It has been years since I last stepped into one. I frequent temples more.
Yesterday's service was an enlightening one and it blended with what I have been learning from Stephen Covey's book for the past few weeks. So the timing was good as my "gate of change" was opened.
As I am not a Christian, I shall not quote what had been preached by the Rev. word by word, but in generic terms.
"There is an eternity in the human heart" - that heart is without boundaries and needs something to worship on. That vacuum in the heart needs to be filled. So if you do not have a religion to fall back on, you will be worshipping your career, your money, your love and the list goes on. So don't blame your heart if it is always feeling empty and constantly looking for something to fill that vacuum, because there is eternity planted in the human heart.
"In God's economics, everything has its value. Everything that takes place is to mould your character" - I love this best. Every pain that you have suffered, every step that you have taken, every decision, every consequence has its value as it happens to mould your character. Everything happens for a reason. Everyone has a mission.
"Pass it on. Things that you keep are those that you have given away. You remember things better that when you pass it on" - like what I am doing now, sharing with you what I have learned, what have crossed my path and what have touched my heart.
Pass it on.
