Just came back from this dinner fellowship with the Church elders and mentors...and i must say....i am filled with pride as introductions were made.
The 1st person tt makes me proud...is my DADDY!!! having worked 2decades full time in church, dad made it into the elder board and he's the youngest amongst the 7. And daddy's hardwork and efforts are not in vain..and i am filled with pride whenever i hear comments about daddy. Altho growing up as a pastor's kid isn't always smooth sailing....and the pressures that not every PK can accept,i really am proud of dad's contributions as well as his obedience in listening to God. even when he was being put thru a very painful test, Dad nv strayed away but remain faithful in God.
and of cos...the other person i can be proud of is elder bro.tho we're only 2yrs apart....bro is so different from me and my 2 younger bros. He is indeed the elder bro always setting a good example....setting benchmarks tt we can nv meet up to. Altho there were times when i felt bitter and envious of how he is being respected and favoured whenever he is and how he always excels in watever he does, he is this big brother that i know i can always be proud of.And he is the exact replica of daddy.
I'm just thankful to have such a wonderful family even tho the growing up years were painful and trying....but the Lord has shown us his graciousness and how he loves us all.
I am definitely glad that God is using me in a mighty and different way and i do pray that in time to come,i can be a good example to my younger bros too.
