23 Sep 2013; Isa 43

I just finished reading LKY's book - One man view.

3 points in his personal take away: 
a. Discipline
b. Relationship
c. Speaking one language

Isa 43: 10

“You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,

“and amy servant whom I have chosen,

that you may know and believe me

and understand that I am he.

bBefore me no god was formed,

nor shall there be any after me.

LKY has no god, he is his wisdom. I am a witness of God and for God. Why then should I be lacking in a discipline for my God. LKY has a determination to get Singapore afloat, what's mine?

As a witness for God, it is about building relationship, how can then I reached out and if I am to be an effective witness, it is they who know me first and not my God. 

The language we have to speak is God's language. How often the word was use? in the family and at work. LKY spoke about countries who succeed like China and Indonesia who uses a common language, what is then my language?

It begins therefore with a discipline - a discipline to read, journal, pray and share for God. What do I want from being discipline? Be a witness for God, a God who called us a servant, a chosen one.

I have been reading the one year bible plan, but not journal, I pray but not much (pray shows our dependency on God and not based on man's wisdom) and have not share (witness).

Witness is also about building relationship with people. They know you so that you have share and they see the God in you.

I am glad that my job permits me the time to reflect and read- now is the time for the disciplines to be consistent. Amen.
