Royal Rangers, what does those two words mean to me. It’s amazing what one man’s vision from God can do to so many lives. Mine included. With the aim to reach, teach and keep, this ministry and its leaders have done me a great deal in my development. Like the representation of the four gold points, it has grown me, physically, spiritually, mentally and even socially.
Friendships built in the rangers program, lasts, even till today. Well, not so many years down the roads. The memories, the fun, the mentors that came in forms of different commanders throughout the years. Cmdr. Desmond, Cmdr. Kean Mun, Cmdr. Vasu, Cmdr. Gideon, Cmdr. Jeffrey, and those are only the outpost commanders I’ve been with! Its taught me how to set goals ,a sense of respect, a sense of discipline, to lead, to share, and a sense of pride of what Royal Rangers represents. The master ranger Himself.
My first round-up, 6th Selangor BSA Round up at Sri Lethia, to the effort of surviving a night with ants at survival camp, outpost meetings over at the chicken rice place, drilling in the hot sun, to the attack of the poor souls with fireworks years after that. These experiences, no matter how insignificant they may seem at the time, got me ready for the world out there in times to come. Ready for anything! To serve, to work, to play, to serve, to worship, to live with integrity , to obey God’s word, and most importantly to be ready to stand up as a child of God when it counts. I would never be the person I am today without Royal Rangers. Stick to it. It counts.
Live knowing that Christ is Lord with pride yet with the humbleness He portrayed, wear the emblem for what it represents with respect of the boys it has made men and the God it upholds. Be Ready.
Ok.so. that wasn’t really funny and such. Was afraid to offend some people. Haha. But I’ll leave you with a lil something that should give you a few tickles…
Rangers, ready for anything. Rangers ready to eat anything, anywhere
Rangers, ready for anything. Rangers ready to sleep anytime, anywhere
