Commitment

According to the dictionary, Commitment means sticking to the purpose, staying engaged to your obligation, etc.

Aunty Annie brought into perspective, God's commitment to us (John 3:16). And have us weighed, what in return, are we commiting to God??

That sentosa trip (in the previous post) cost a hefty sum. I told her she could ask a receipt from the church, and she could get tax rebate. She shrugged it off and said it was for the children... My eyes almost rolled all the way back home when i saw the amount... Phew.. Enough to cover all my school fees........

Anyway, she shared this joke.

A pig and a chicken was walking along a road when they saw a breakfast sign.

"Today's Breakfast!! Ham and eggs."

"Hmph! this is what our contribution to the society is!" The chicken said.

The pig looked at the chicken, then at the sign and said,

"For you, it's a contribution. For us, it's a commitment."

I thought it really made sense, God asked for commitment, but i think most of the time, we were just giving contributions... hmm.. Time to rethink..
