Sera speaks: "1% Inspiration, 99% Perspiration."

Sera is a theatre production student from LaSalle, she never fails to inspire others around her with her deep convictions and carefree expression of God's love. She's blessed with a beautiful singing voice too!


Hello Hello lovelies!!!

For the most of us, our term break has started! Yay!! Means more time for each other right? =) School for me is the same as usual, if you've already been listening to my stories from year 1 haha. But it's gotten so much easier to go through even though the modules are getting tougher. With God everything is possible, even me doing well in school. haha Yay!

Lemme go on to my sharing. Was in my rehearsal on day and my director, who is actually a really good and wise person but sometimes abit shout-y shout-y la, he told this to the actors. "It's 1% Inspiration and 99% Perspiration. You can't live with inspiration alone, u don't get anywhere else but under a tree." Haha!! What he meant was, if you're just gonna have vision and day dream under a tree all day, nothing gets done. And what he also meant was, to get what you want, or to pursue God's visions, it's mostly hard work and sometimes suffering a little for it.

In my case, I get an inspiration to lose weight, so I buy a dress 2 sizes smaller than what I would normally wear. The weight doesn't go away just by me staring at the dress and every few hours try it on to see if it fits. It takes a long time, and with exercise and a whole lot of discipline. =)

Lemme share a verse that taught me what it is to be a true disciple. =)

1 Corinthians 4:12
"We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it; when we are slandered, we answer kindly. We have become the scum of the earth, the garbage of the world -- right up to this moment."

Not so easy huh? We all have dreams as disciples, but do we aspire to be the true disciple or do we just live with the name? It's not all daisies and pretty things, sometimes if not many times we have to break a sweat and work hard for what we believe in. Then our dreams come true. =)

There's a reason why it's called a spiritual battle. It's not just chess. We fight for who we are and we fight for God. Don't just look up to heaven and be inspired. =)

Here's something to encourage you. =)

1 Peter 2:9-10
"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light. Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not recieved mercy, but now you have recieved mercy."

Let's give it our all for God. =)

Love you dearly,
Sera
