Didn't make it for Saturday's service thanks to my laziness. Have to admit it. :(
But at least I managed to get the cell group birthday card for Liyun out. Thank God for my mom. I had the idea but without her execution the card would have looked like a kindergarten kid's art piece. No offense to them (the kindergarten kids) though.
And so I slept at 2am, woke up at reporting time on Sunday, and cabbed down. Sorry, sorry, sorry! I'm a lousy time-keeper! :(
After the dust settled at around 1pm, I went off alone feeling really really physically tired. And the feeling sucked bad when you have that overwhelming "lack of sleep" feeling. Kept feeling like an emo superhero all day. Thank God for Him, I managed to come out with the occasional smile by refocusing on happy thoughts! :D
And so Sunday ended and Monday came. I'm not sure why, but I was super energised during breakfast time! I guess in spite of all that introverted-ness, there's still a tiny part of me that really appreciates crowds in the form of friends. And so some of us had quite a laugh at the Ops Room rest area (forgot the official term) during breakfast as I related my Primary & Secondary school crushes and how they ended. (All hilariously unsuccessful!) Everyone was saying what a wuss I was! :S
One thing that really stuck with me from Pastor Phil Pringle's sharing on Sunday was this;
If it's funny afterwards, it's funny right now.
Our human instinct is to be afraid in times of uncertainty. But yet the Bible tells us that in no uncertain terms (pun intended!) that everything has been provisioned and is according to God's plan. It might be a struggle but the best way to approach a challenge is to see it in a victorious retrospect, to see that it has been overcome.
Funny how I don't feel that way when it comes to certain areas of my life. And so, mould me.
