GALVIN SNG's
PERSONAL MISSION STATEMENT

The significance of a life is not measured by its length but by its legacy. Thus, in order To LIVE, To LEARN, To LOVE and To LEAVE A MEANINGFUL LEGACY, I, GALVIN SNG will –

1. LIVE A Joyful and Contented Life in Christ (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Philippians 4:12-13). Through life's ups or downs, happy or sad moments, I seek to live in the light of God's mercy and grace that He has lavished on me. Especially in times when I simply cannot see His plans, I will remember once again the love that He has give me, demonstrated on the cross of Calvary through His Son Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of my sins. Whether I am living in plenty or in want, in spite of circumstances, I seek to live contented in what He has blessed me with. The Lord gives, the Lord takes away; blessed be the name of the Lord.

2. YIELD myself to the plan and calling that God has given in my life (Luke 9:23). In my public world, God has called me to three areas, of which I exercise the talents given me interchangeably amongst them: Youth Ministry (teaching, discipleship, encouragement), Design (web design, desktop publishing) and Songwriting (lyrics, melodies), all of which are to be used in the process of witnessing, disciplemaking and fulfilling the Great Commission. In my private world, I am called to strive on in this journey of sanctification, to nurture a consistent devotion towards Christ and let that overflow towards others, relying on His strength to see me through everything, especially when tempted at my weakest points. In my inner world, I seek to know God more each day and arrive at the point where I can consider everything 'rubbish' compared to the surpassing knowledge of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord (Philippians 3:8).

3. SERVE others in love as Christ has loved, to be a salt and light unto the world (Matthew 5:13-14,16). I choose to respond rather than react to people and situations. Be it in thought, speech and action, regardless of rank and status, I seek to put others before me, just as Christ has for His children. I humbly acknowledge that I am unable to love and care for others by my own strength; I can only do so in Him.

4. SPUR one another on towards love and good deeds (Hebrews 10:4-5), towards fostering the deeply satisfying relationship one can have with God. I believe that in life’s circumstances and uncertainties, living a life that is rooted in Christ is akin to a vessel firmly anchored in the midst of storms. However God leads, I seek to spur and encourage others towards establishing that same personal relationship everyone is able to have with God, be it through living, writing, singing, and any other forms that He calls me to employ.
