Saturday was a crazy, busy day. For some reason, I shoved so many events into my calendar that some of them had to simply evaporate. And they did; most of the less urgent things I got no confirmation reply for (such as a lunch appointment).
Went to the IT show to get Jerrome's new hard drive. Spent 2 hours going in and coming out, and we only visited 3 stalls, spending less than 2 mins on 2 and just the paying time for the last! Then went to grab tickets for Jason drummer's performance, after which I visited Hope's service.
Was thinking about my ex-shepherd, Timothy Alvin, but had to much on my hands beyond just a short sms conversation and finding out that he was at the IT show the whole day, so he couldn't join me in the visit.
The amazing thing; Jin Hui/Bobby, a fellow NSF from my Unit, received Christ in Hope the previous week's service, and I decided to join him for the service to encourage him and also to visit Hope once more. The service was amazing and the sermon spoke wonders to me, especially about magnifying God VS problems.
I am always amazed at the level of energy in Hope's praise. Sometimes I really really miss jumping in praise with Jerrome and the rest of the RPians in unity. I still remember in Year 1 we always rushed down right in front to praise God, leading the charge. Soon after, everyone picked up!
Thank God for Lancaster joining us, and all those who said hi, because it really made me feel welcomed once again. P.S. Jeremy, you are remembered! Prayed a short prayer for Elaine and left after service to for dinner.
I had the opportunity to join HopeRP guy's dinner fellowship and had quite a good time with Blake, Ronald (a visiting brother) and Chun Kwee, glad to see everyone doing well. :)
Time flew past and I was unable to join Nehemiah and company for Daohui supper, because I had to go to "St John" according to Nehemiah. Hey brother, I went to St James, not St John. =X
Met my two camp mates, Mike and Waltson. Have a bit to say about Mike:
He is a Buddhist, and questioned me before about Christianity and my beliefs. I ever asked him if he wanted to join me for service but he said that he was not interested because he has his own beliefs. Then two/three weeks ago Mike told me that he visited his cousin's church. He even bought a daily devotional even though he had not received Christ, so he could know more about Christianity before committing his life. He shared that he felt different being there than from other churches because he felt at peace after a while, even though he was initially apprehensive. When I invited him to City Harvest, he told me he did not want to church hop, so I respected his decision. I offered him my help if he had questions, and that I would check if I did not know the answers. :)
About Waltson: I'm working on it. Right, top-notch!
Other highlights:
Heng Yu committed to City Harvest now! Good choice bro, lets grow together! :)
Praying for:
Timothy Alvin (bro, you may not know it, or you may choose not to believe it, but as the first one to bring me to Christ, you have my eternal thanks and I pray that you will come back to Him)
Jerrome & Elaine (Commit to a local church! Sink your roots! :D)
Xueyan (Come to know God as Jerrome has, His blessings are awaiting your acceptance)
Darryl (Protection and covering from on high)
E410 (Various, various, various)
More helping hands
Better wisdom, planning and consistency; I don't want to go around half dead physically :(
Strength for the week ahead
P.S. EEK! I haven't sent Darryl the daily sms!
Love the Lord Your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.
