Kawl tung he: [With setting the goal]
Nihin ah mitam pi cu hmailei caah timhtuahmi goal ngeiset lo le fiangset lo in asi tikpoah ah si ko seh tin a nungmi , a tlawnglengmi kan tam. Hi hi thanchohnak a dawnkhamtu hrampi pakhat a si ve. Hmailei caah goal ngei hi Krih fa kan nunnak a bia ngaingai mi le kan tlorh lengmangmi pakhat a si ve. Michael De Montaige nih a ti mi cu; [The soul that has no established aim losses itself], Fek te in Tinhmi ngei lo mi pa/nu/ nunnak cu amah te in a tlau. Cun Washington lving nih a ti ve mi cu: [Great minds have purposes, others have wishes], Mi cheukhat nih lungchung in duhnak, saduhthahnak an ngei i, Khua kaupi a ruahkho mi hna nih cun timhmi an ngei. Timhmi cu tuahduhnak lungthin men lawng si lo in, ka tuahhrim lai tiah lungchungah bia khiaknak he hmailei ah kal khi asi . Cun Bible thiang zongnih fiangte in akan cawnpiak ve mi cu [Where there is no vision people perish] "Pathian nih a hruai lomi miphun cu ningcang loin khua an sa. Pathian nawlbia a zulmi cu cu lunglawmmi an si" Pro 29:18. Cu caah zungzal a nungmi Pathian fa kan si bantuk in a nungmi ruahchannak kan ngei awk asi. Pathian nih hngalh hna seh tiah a kan duhpi mi zong a hngalh kho tu kan si awk asi. Cucu Pathian he ipehtlaihnak thawngin hngalh khawh asi. Krih fa nun cu hmai lei a kalmi nun a si bantuk in, hmailei a hmuhkho mi zumhnak le ruahchannak , timhmi target/goal tung kan ngei cio a herh. Cucu Pathian nih kan Bawipa Krih Jesuh thawngin cunglei nunnak i a kan kawh hi a si. (Phil 3:14b). Cun taksak lei in nunak pawcamnak ca i timhmi zong ngei a herh ve B.Th kumkhatnak ka rak kai lio ah Notebook pakhat ka rak icawk ve. A khuh (cover) cungah ca aa tial mi te nihin tiang ka philh kho lo. " Goal keeps us Going" ti si. Cu nihcun khuaza a ka ruatter i, a hman ngai ka ti. Minung hi tinhnak kanngei mi te nihhin hmailei ah a kan kal ter ton. Ramkip ah kan phak cio mi zong hi timhnak kan rak ngeimi ruangah khan a si ko. Cucaahcun hi kum thar ahhin, ruahnak thar timhmi thar he a fek mi kawltung ngei cio hna u sih law, hmai lei ah vorhchih hna u sih.

Kan nih krihfa ca cun, kumthar ni thengmang lawng hi nithar si lo in, nifa te hi ni thar, kumthar cu a si ve ko.( Tahnak hla 3:23). Cucaah a tu caan ahhin Pathian ah kan nunnak kan izohthan (reflection)caan le kan man kan ikhiak thannak(re-evaluation)caan siseh law 2009 kumthar chungah Pathian caah a nun kho chinhchin tu si izuam hna u sih. Paul nih II Cor 4:16b " Kan mihring sinak cu duhsah te in zorchin lengmang hman seh law kan thlarua sinak cu ni khat hnu ni khat a thar chin lengmang" a ti bantuk in Pathian ah kan nuncu thar chinter lengmang hna u sih. Pathian nih kan nunnak pakhat cio ah pum in hngalhnak thar ngei peng hna seh ti a kan duh.

A nungmi zumhnak kan ngei lo ahcun a phungmen Krihfa kan si tinak si. Zumhnak locun Pathian lung ton khawh a si lo ( Heb11:6). Cun zumhnak thawngin thiam coter kan si, kham kan si. PaThian nih um pi peng a kan duh.Cun a zeibantuk thil,harnak, ngeichiatnak, lunglawmhnak, kan ton zongah, a khuaika hmun le ram kan va phak zongah Pathian nih a kan um pi zungzal ti hi hngalh, zum zungzal hna seh ti zong hi a kan duh fawn. Isai. 42:16 chungah "A mit a cawmi ka mi cu, an kal bal lonak lam khan ka kalpi hna lai. Muinak cu ceunak ah ka canterpiak hna lai i an hmai i lam bingbo cu lam mil ah ka seh hna lai.
