What’s worth giving my life to?
Posted on August 19, 2009 | Filed Under Asia and Beyond, Ministries, News, People
I have been reading Luke for my quiet time and one of the things that comes afresh to me is what Jesus desires, his passion to see people come to know him, and to see labourers. He called the disciples, prayed overnight and he appointed the Twelve to be apostles. Raising labourers is very much on God’s heart.
I am 61 and I have been wrestling more and more with what is worth giving my life for at this age because I want to end well. I have been reflecting on Psalm 61 and Isaiah 61 which depict what are on God’s heart. So, what more can you and I give our lives to and for except what are on God’s heart – the kingdom of God, people, and nations.
Thank you for partnering with us in the harvest field. We trust that the Lord will lead many of you not only to partner with us in Singapore but also to the nations. - Thomas Chua, National Director

I’m just a little older, but only committed to Christ when our last two kids came, in my mid - 30’s. Of all my involvements in the last 25 years, the best have been in raising our girls and watching them grow in relationships.The one, with her husband, have 4 beautiful children committed to the Lord, and lead both drama and tech ministry at our local church. The other has been in overseas missions for about 10 years, and is currently involved on your side of the world. Watching how they have taken hold of and built on their relationships is truly beautiful and rewarding; and the grandchildren keep us from feeling our age and pains too much. God is good, all the time.
