saturday!
ALot of people were not coming for service...
seems like only elaine, jeremy and myself... everyone seem bz with something...
spend the whole morning typing out something for elaine and then i rushed down to school to pass sharon the survey forms and to meet erin, to bless her with some gifts. she looked to pale and tired the say before. Wanted to pass something to Yanxiang but he was not in school. Then i rushed down to Easter Training at America Room to play guitar for Meihua. Very last minute but i tried hard to pray... thanks eilton for the book! Learn alot about EAster... Jesus died for us while we were sinners... when jasmine said gather in caregroups, i was alone. wah... it sure felt lonely. Nel and Sharon could not come. So i sat alone with the Lord to plan. i hope for more people to come in.
THanks jo-N for the encouragement and advice you have given me. I am really glad to see you come. During the prayer meet, i saw zhangfang fainted. I prayed for him. Tears rushed down from my face. Why? I am so touched by this brother's faith and action to the Lord. Even though he had a heart operation and a continual heart problem, he still wanted to praise and worship God even at his own expense. It was his dedication to the Lord that touched me. IN less than a month, he had brought 7 friends from his country to know the Lord. And he helped to retain 5 of this friends... he really took an interest in the lifes of people... He is a brother always yearning to learn and hear from God. I know he is not fully equipped with everything, but he had a desire to do more. I pray for such a spirit to hit all of us including myself, that we are all healthy people... or even if we are not, we stil can give our best to the Lord. His conviction is a driving force to many! no one force him to serve... he knows it is the best... talk to him, ask him why he is so convicted. He has went through a time of danger and God has kept him safe. Today, even after he fainted, he was still busy preparing a celebration for a sister's birthday. Zhangfang, i am really touched by your heart... God will use u a long way... many of us complain about God about alot of things but how many times we live and serve with joy knowing that God is with us just like this brother? He knew what was best and jhe gave his whole heart to it. May God's grace bring u far...
During worship, God spoke to me about the past week's events. He told me three words. "It is about you", i cried as God express his love for me. He told me many things had happen but when we stripped everything away, whether it is studies,friends or ministry, what is there left? my or should i say his and mine relationship. God cared more than i had ever known. AS i prayed and draw near to God, i bow and worshipped him. He had spoken not of anger but of love and encouragement. Sharon came halfway. Jeremy came. God is looking after his people. I pray that one day my people will experience such powerful love when they go through tough or even good times. I prayed for a breakthrough in the group.
Pastor Jeff taught about commitment to the Word. DDMM went on stage to sing, sam could not sing again but cheered him on. Good friend. Laughed but i know he is a good friend. Thank God for ya. After that we went to dinner, lost my wallet... i thought sharon took it for fun, then i realise it was missing really till Sharon found it. I hope you are not angry... not that i dun trust you, i thought u were playing with me... SORRY! thanks. She talked with germaine and some of the TP people as i went to celebrate winnie's birthday. Then later sharon wanted to go off liao cos she meeting parents for chingay but cause very hard to find parents, she joined germaine and me to help out in nexus! we had a fun time... acting... and laughing at each other... and cracking funny jokes... I knew God was doing something and very thankful.
I talked with Meihua after that. I was very very tired but i really want to grow and see the people around me grow too so i listened. After that, me and sam had a talk, he was troubled about his group and he needed someone to share to. We listened and we encouraged each other. That night, i messaged a message to all my good friends and thank them and told them i really appreciate them alot. I really meant it. I never really got to spend alot of time with many of them though i want but just wanted to let them know with my heart, that someone out there treasures them at anytime of the day or even night. Went home about 12+. about to die already... haha... fell asleep on sofa till 2am... then i went to sleep on my bed... dun worry... i bathe liao...
stinky? no lar... nice smell
