nonetheless, there are still a few things on my plate, waiting for me to pick it up... procrastination...
i know i'll eventually do it... i'm just lazy now... and i need to find that motivation, that passion, to kickstart and finish it beautifully in one go...
anyway, i was pondering over something on sat night before dozing off... A sister was asking me earlier on if i know why another sister stopped coming to church some time ago... and i told her, actually, i was also not sure what exactly happened, if there was anything that triggered it... was it because of BGRs? disagreements? friends? family?
before i slept, somehow, I suddenly remembered a sentence by another sister.
"You don't wake up one day and decide you want to commit adultery."

How true. Sin did not enter when the serpent tried to tempt Eve to eat the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Sin was conceived in her mind the moment she decided that "the fruit was good for food and pleasing to the eye" and that she can be as wise as God.
our thoughts shape our attitudes, determine our values and eventually dictate our actions. Perhaps, there wasn't any particular incident or misunderstanding that caused her lose her faith. It could be due to the accumulation of wrong thoughts. I was a backslid Christian before and I know how easy I can walk off the track. and when u are lost in the jungle of this world, it's not easy to find your way back... So how to stay on the track and finish strong? guard your mind in Christ. Let's just do it.
