Recess Revo Updates #3

What's up, all the heroes and heroins of Recess Revolution! We want to thank God that Recess Revolution has been kick started in SK Bukit Gelugor. This is the first primary school that has kick started Recess Revo and we want to believe God for more open doors!
This week, we were at SK Ayer Itam and they are also excited about starting Recess Revolution. Recess Revo is spreading like a wildfire in this island and if you're not part of it, do join us in this movement. Recess Revolution is not only a movement, it's a statement.
We are also on YouTube now so do check on it for more information. Here's a video about Wildfire@RR P.A.R.T.Y and the vision of Recess Revolution in Penang.

Remember, continue to watch and pray as you all are doing this. There will be discouragements on the way but we have to be strong for God because we can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens us. Here's an inspiring story about a donkey and a farmer.

"Once there was a donkey that fell in to an old empty well. The farmer, who owns the donkey, looked at the beast and tried to figure how to get it out of there. Having thought of nothing to get the donkey out of the well, he decided to simply bury his donkey alive!
So the farmer called his neighbors to shovel dirt into the well. At first the donkey got frightened and panicked. After some time the beast realized that if he shakes the dirt of his back, the ground under him gets higher. He continued to shake the dirt off and step up until the well was full. I will leave to your imagination what the donkey did to the farmer and his neighbours when he got out of the well."

Many times we feel life is throwing dirt at us. Problems seem to hit us at all directions. Even when you feel everything is OK, suddenly dirt smacks you in the face. Sometimes you can even feel the bitterness of the dirt! There are others who not only feel that dirt is being thrown at them, but feel that they are being buried alive. Their problems seem pile to up from one to the next, until their problems are bigger than they are. They feel like all the world’s trash is being poured out on to them.
But we can use this dirt. We can use life’s problems and troubles to produce strength, wisdom, perseverance, patience and other virtues in us that will help us succeed in life. The dirt thrown at you can be use to increase your stature, your being.
We should imitate the donkey. Instead of giving up and letting himself be buried, he shook the dirt of off him. We too should learn to shake our problems and step on it. And like the donkey we will get out of the hole we are in.

So do not give up when you are facing problems or discouragement as you are doing Recess Revolution. When God is on your side, victory is on your side! We don't have to be the best in what we do, we just need to do our best!
