whee~!am back with some posts. I lead prayer meeting for the first time in service on saturday and i tell you, eveytime i does this kind of “first time” thingy, i freak out. And i honestly did. I remembered the first time i acted on stage, i nearly fainted during the pre-service rehearsals. And the first time i hosted in service, i was hopping around the stage like an ant on a hot pot (ask those who knows chinese proverbs). I am bad at these. but well, God brought me thru the prayer meeting and I had rather good feedback on my prayer leading. Thank God for that!:)
West did not do very well for service that day. Well, we dipped back to below 100. Was a lil sad abt the attendance. but well, i told God abt it and God reveal 2 things to me which was affecting the district growth. I mean i never seen it in such manner. First thing God told me was that West seriously lacked new wineskins and leader. And as i thought abt it, i do realised that people who comes for harvesters meet are those people who turns up for seed meet, and those people who turns up for seed meet are those who turns up for CLm. And its all the same people. long time since we seen new people rising up to take up the role of leadership. And to grow the church, leadership is a very important factor. We need new leaders who stand up in faith to do the job of leading people so that the church of God can grow and will grow. Second thing that God spoke abt was the grp focussing on the “cannot do’s” rather than the “can be done’s”. We need to focus more on God’s omnipotency. We need to trust in God’s power. We need to operate in faith. Because without faith, its impossible to please God. I spoke abt these 2 areas with my CLs in the CLs overnight prayer meet and they agreed with me. And they are all ready to fight this battle together with me. Thank God for all my warriors CLs. They are people who never shun when the going gets tough. They simply fights harder and get tougher. I love them and I love serving with them. Whee!!!!
Now to the topic of the 2 movies I watched recently. First on the list, 10 promises to my dog! I caught this movie alone coz i have been wanting to look at the kawaii dog. The show is super touching la. I cried like bucket loads. I guess I cant stand farewells and things that hurt human heart or human relationships. The show makes me want to have a dog.
Here goes the 10 promises:
- Give me time to understand what you want of me.
- Place your trust in me. It’s crucial for my well-being.
- Be aware that however you treat me, I’ll never forget it.
- Before you scold me for being lazy, ask yourself if something might be bothering me.
- Talk to me sometimes. Even if I dont understand the words,I do understand the voice when it’s speaking to me.
- Remember before you hit me,I have teeth that could hurt you,but that i choose not to hurt you.
- Take care of me when I get old.
- You have your work, your entertainment and your friends. I only have you.
- My life is likely to last from 10-15 years. Any separation from you will be painful to me.
- Go with me on difficult journey. Everything is easier for me if you are there. Remember I love you..
Up next, RED CLIFF… Well, its the long-awaited blockbuster. I heard abt this show since Feb and since then, i have set my heart to watch it. And indeed, I guess I was the first few to catch the show coz I checked all the cinemas and on 10th July 2008, 9:15pm its the first show screened in Singapore. People who likes war strategy movies, you wont regret watching it. People who loved LOTR, go for it. My fave is Zhou Yu, the tactician for Wu kingdom. The storyline is quite close to the real story of Three kingdoms. Catch it, love it and tell me abt it alrite?:)
