~ back

been a week of a spiritual high :) just came back from yf camp which in many ways have been such a learning experience, a blessing and a trial.

the testimony from rev heng, the msg on 'a Christian's speech', and most importantly, the morning msgs by elder seah where the ones that really inspired me the most. how God can use a normal, simple man to show the power of God just amazes me. i feel he really speaks from the heart as God's mouth piece and yes, thank the Lord, i'm really inspired. (:

object lessons were interesting and different. it may have been lessons learnt long before but a new idea when it was done. lastly, food and accomadation and logistics were well settled. a big thank you goes out to the camp comm :) you've done a wonderful job.

to those who have gone, please remember the precious lessons that have been given, the fun times we had in camp, and all the activities. most importantly, remember our Creator :)

brought back 2 acronyms to sum up camp.
first one is what we should do in our fellowship,

E xample to others
N uturing each other spiritually
C aring
O peness
U n-judgemental
R eadiness to help
A wareness
G raciousness
E steeming each other better than ourselves

second one is for what lies ahead for the Christian,

H eaven
O vercoming Death
P eace that passeth all understanding
E ternal Life

its been wonderful being a Christian, no matter what can happen, you know its in hands that are so great that if He could create the world from dust, He'll know every single thing you will do in any situation that comes your way. i've been a Christian for many years and i've never looked back and said i want to give it up for anything. true that i've been thru a lot in the past few years. i've had my fair share of girl problems, my dad has kidney failure and nose cancer and i've got friends who have let me down time and again, or friends whom i have misplaced my trust. but at this point in the road, i can say its all been good. and i hope one day, you will come to put your trust and faith to this man named Jesus, and i can assure you, He is one friend who will never misplace your trust and faith in, unlike your mortal friends (even me!) because in Hebrews 13:8, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today and forever." if you do need to talk abt this, i'll always be on my fone ready to help :)

well, i wasn't very happy when i got it. i think i'm better now. afterall (which i forgot when i saw it and was so upset, and shows how mortal i am), was that God has it all planned out and He'll show me and lead me in His perfect time.

anyways i'm just got back earlier on from a wedding dinner of someone i respected in my area of service and haha..the food and ambience was good. but the dessert fantastic! it was a dessert buffet and had all manners of desserts from fruits to traditional desserts to ice cream (which i tell you can 'fight' with haagen daz) to cakes (the choc mousse cake was heavenly), puddings and such. but the one that took the cake (pardon the pun) was the fountain of chocolate. warm, thick, flowing chocolate! fondue style. it was absolutely the sight to look at and then to taste it, heavenly!

haha shan't tempt you any further. =Þ anyways talking abt God's timing. well i guess, i'm just a Christian first, a soldier second. so regarding relationships, well i'm not good at that but well in God's timing. cuz well i did tell this someone (you who know, know. you who don't, please don't probe. if i tell you i'll tell you in time) whom i've liked for some time how i felt and well at the way my ns life has taken another turn, its good the way it currently is. whether the feeling is mutual or not, is something i leave not in my hands but in the hands of my God.

lastly, i hope this spiritual high would last me till church camp in june (which i really hope to go for and hope to get the off for) and then also if you wanna see the journal abt "The Life of a PES C Soldier/Slacker" you may get it at all popular bookstores ard the island =Þ haha..not! but you can ask me for it if you wish.
