Reflections...
As i look back from the past to the present
I realised certain things which have been extremely consistent
The Church's soccer team hardly ever gets any support from the members.
Its extremely depressing to see such issues surface especially when we are supposed to be a church that is closely knitted.
I always ask when i was young, why dosent anyone come support the team ?
Are they too busy ? Are we just too lousy to be watched ? Or Do they just think we are not worth the time and effort ?
As i take up the role of the Coordinator for friday night soccer at the Cage and in general matters that concern the church soccer team, i get really pissed with people telling me they would turn up and eventually not appear and when i request for certain things to be done , nothing seems to be done.
Coordinating is something that i feel really showed me alot regarding how humans can behave. Is there no sense of belonging ? Do we always have to field a team full of friends In a so called CHURCH match ? Its not like we dont have the players...
I'm glad David believes in the team and has contributed to the buying 5 new soccer balls for the team. I really appreciate his kindess in helping out the team and i thank him for encouraging me with this phrase " Great things start small ".
Truely COSB church team very small... So small that when there is training , only 5 turn up last week ... Haha ... I find it amusing , 2 out of the 5 were not church members ...
Anyway ... 23rd May 09 , we will be having a match over at syl-vyn's work place from 9 to 11am
Opponents will be youths from Pastor Nicholas's Church ...
Hoping to win , Hoping to see support .

I don't think you should be pissed lei.. that's not the way to get support either. Unless you want people to come because they're afraid you'll be angry. Its like a singer. You start of with ONE loyal fan and like 20 othrs who are international. You can't be pissed. You're not going to win their support by bring angry with their so called disloyalty. Everyone has their diff way of life, diff way of support, diff choices. Instead, if you can push on with the same tenacity, the same love, the same faith and belief, God will make the paths straight. Its all in his timing. 5 may be a small number, but its a baby step. And baby steps are always impt.
God wants us to appreciate every little we get. So praise God for the 5 lovelies who turned up and the 2 non-believers whom you all managed to reach out to!
