firstly, the name of the actual song 'one' The definition of one i'm gonna be talkin about is unity. the one-ness of a family, or of a group of friends, OR a fellowship?! yes so wut got me thinkin about this is Mark 3:24 and 25.
If a kingdon is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
Mark 3:24-25
If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
Mark 3:24-25
Taken in the context of unity within a fellowhip, if a fellowship is divided against itself how can it grow? how can we expect didomi to grow without unity? NOT saying that i think we're not unified as a fellowship. of course there is already some unity. like compared to other years, as i'm sur most of u are well aware of, our present-day didomi is surprisingly clique-free. our intergrade relations are very good. but as is consistent with most things, there is always room for improvement. it's like my 'vision' for didomi that i shared last friday. dunno how many of u remember wut i said so i will recap! i basically want to see didomi able to grow as one unified body, one in which nobody feels left out, one in which EVERY1 can go to ANY1 in their times of need or when they just need to talk something out. like there are undoubtedly still people that often feel left out, quite a lot i'd say. so ya, i feel that as leaders in dido we should be leading by example by reaching out to these people! so yes, 'one'
next part is the line which i have used as my title: 'time is ticking, t-time is tickin away' as a gr.12 person it is slowly becomming apparent to me that i am actually quite old! despite the fact that i may look like i'm in gr 9, i can't help but feel old sumtimes. so this leads to the question, what exactly have i done with my life so far? off the top of my head... not much! in my last year of high school i feel like i should be tryin hard to do so many things. one being bringing my friends at skool to God. this has always been a rly hard thing, cuz it's hard to just randomly bring up this somewhat sensitive topic. but this past weekend i was giving a HUGE oppurtunity to do so and i did! it started with my friend saying *sigh life is so empty. but ya, long story short i was able to share my faith with a lot of my friends and we were able to talk about a lot of controversial issues. this is the most serious talking i've done with my friends in that last 6 years! and i feel that oppurtunities like this are going to continue coming up, seeing as we have so many friggin spares! =P but ya, i kno a lot of ppl are currently trying to talk to their friends at skool bout God and stuff and my best encouragement thing is don't be discouraged! and don't try too hard to try to get ppl to do stuff, trust that God will work through u and that He'll be able to soften their hearts and make them willing to listen and learn more. ALSO, adding to this time is ticking thing, i also want to do a lot for dido this year! i hope this year's gonna be really gud, but i'm goin to make SURE that NEXT year will be even better. by working with the younger pplz and leading by example. i'm sure that didomi next year is going to be soo gud! can't wait to see what God has in plan for all these awesome ppl. especially u gr 11 pplz. but yes, make the most out of ur high skool life ppl. it duzn't last! nothing duz rly.. =P WOAH that's like my theme be:different. seeing as nothing (earthly) lasts, you should look towards God, the only thing that will be regardless of any of the circumstances..
k wow that was long.. hope u guys liked it!
