AC conference thus far.. day 3

I figured i better write down the revelations God has given me..

#1: Have always been wondering about the make-up of motivations within us. And i think God truly answered my doubts through Dr John Avanzini ( i absolutely adore him!). God created us all to be reward-minded and there is nothing evil or sinister about it! Apostle Paul encouraged us to "run the race". What kind of race does not include a reward? None! Else it wouldn't be called a race.

This revelation truly set me free, especially in my teaching career. I've always struggled with the use of rewards, often questioning myself if it is alright to use them on my students.

On the bus home with Hema, this revelation became clearer as we talked about it. I realised that our maturity is shown by the kind of rewards that motivate us. For example, the most basic rewards would be concrete, such as monetary sorts. As you mature, we yearn for rewards that are abstract and invaluable, such as having someone thank you, seeing the smile on an old lady's face, being in His presence & anionting or the "A" on the exam script.

That's how we are created.

#2: Dr Cho preached about constantly carrying the image of Jesus suffering on the cross for our sakes so that we'll always remain thankful and mindful of His great love for us. This will really alter my prayer life!

Decadent Pleasures

Milkshake tops 'worst' list

LOS ANGELES - A MILKSHAKE containing 2,010 calories - equivalent to eating 68 strips of bacon or 30 chocolate chip cookies - has topped a list of the 20 worst drinks in America compiled by Men's Health magazine.

The Cold Stone PB&C milkshake, made with peanut butter, chocolate ice cream and milk, contains 68g of saturated fat and 153g of sugar, according to nutritional details on the company's website.

'In terms of saturated fat, drinking this Cold Stone catastrophe is like slurping up 68 strips of bacon,' the magazine said.

The second worst drink in America was listed as the Peanut Power Plus Grape from Smoothie King with a large cup packing 1,498 calories and the same amount of sugar as 20 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups chocolate and peanut butter snacks.

McDonald's large Triple Thick Chocolate Shake came in third with 1,160 calories or the equivalent of 13 of the fast food chain's hot apple pies.

A spokesman from the Cold Stone Creamery pointed out that the company does also offer low-calorie, reduced-fat options for customers looking for 'a lighter indulgence' such as its range of sinless smoothies with only 110 calories. -- REUTERS

Think 5 times before slurping it down. As your think, drink lotsa of plain water, so that your stomach is too full to contain any milk shake of any form when you finally reach your 5th thought!

i'm weary

I really don't know how to encourage you. I didn't know my actions & words have pissed you off so much. Somehow our clash of values is causing a strain and my encouragement is back-firing. Perhaps I'm too harsh on the ones on whom i have a high expectation on, which includes you. Deep down, i am not assured and i am losing confidence.. seriously. I guess from now on, i really wouldn't say a thing because i really don't know what to say and i am not the ideal motivator for you. I'm struggling inside and i dun think i have the patience to endure and wait. I am weary. Would someone care to encourage and assure me?
