received an email fr shaun. the girl's:
and the guys team.
saw shaun online last week. and he shared that comps were around the corner.
and i went, hmm yeah. i recalled. yeah, january. yeah. that's fast. and that reminded me like that's almost 9 months i last attended training proper.
not as if the last time round of comps i went for intense training, but i did recall at least getting the 'feel' back 2 wks prior comps.
and to my horror of horrors, shaun responded to my when's comp with....
"Oh! end of this month and beginning of nov."
wow. what kind news.
and i was oh-so-tempted to request to drop out of the team.
but as i wait for a second, i kind of made sense of the situation. :) God you are indeed faithful! You never fail to answer prayers!
4 new year ones on board the team this yr! :)
i ll give my best to this comps. with a different spirit and perspective.
not winning medals. but winning souls. yes and amen!
just hung up the phone with shareen. so blessed, i can't contain it. I ve learnt something after the past few weeks till today: Let Go, and Let God.
the tighter i hold my fist, the harder to allow God to open my hand and hold it.
know something, its been ages since i ve had such revival within me. and i am claiming His promises one by one.
I put down by faith on my leadership goals a name, who is a non-believer. kai sze. :)
and amen, she responded to join us for service this wk! and hazel initiated to meet shar this fri!
something i learnt: intercede. stand in the gap. pray faithfully.
oh my gosh. really, so excited!
and sebas too. after meeting up shaun and shar, had a long long chat with him on the train whilst i was going to cady's hse for miaozhi's birthday celebration on sunday night.
exercising our spiritual muscles. yes! sebas, believe that heart knowledge and hard knowledge can come hand in hand! :)
and was really blessed by ace and abi's presence in our cg today! added strength and learnt loads from them! hahhas. and a great time of dinner with deb and ace. got to know ace deeper.
i see something in her. and that, i want to learn from her. ace is someone who is very consistent. and someone who gives her maximum energy in every task, not an ounce lesser for any.
and when i asked her and told her so, she responded that its cos she is doing something that she enjoys. :)
and yes, i can see it through her life. hope u ve had a good time, ace. :) cos i did.
caregroup was abt Growth. Ps Jeff shared, to grow, we must make intentional efforts. yes, i believe and m convicted of so.
saw yy online! she's in curtin now taking occ therapy! omg! n she suggested getting a hse with her friend too if i m really gg over! someone that i can depend on to share with me the culture of school and modules. great! :)
and something funny happened today. he called me and asked if i was in ntu, cos he thought he saw someone that resemble me in ntu.
hahas. o wells. imagine, its almost 5years, and honestly, he calls only once per year (on my birthday to wish me). so seeing his number today really caught me by surprise.
i wouldnt deny that upon putting down the phone, i wondered how is he getting along and stuff, but once again, briefly. i have moved on. :)
i was reminded of how he persistently shared Christ and never failed to pray for me everyday. and i was indifferent then.
how badly he wanted me to go with him into a missionary jc to experience the unity and community of Christians, but i chose a jc nearer my place instead.
how we used human logical understanding to think that being in a christian environment raise opportunities of knowing God, but God proved that He is everywhere and anywhere. :)
I knew Him, right smack in jc. not the missionary jc. but a place where i thought the opportunities of hearing about God was zilch. :)
and m glad we both moved on. still friends, but prolly a call-once-a-year friend. heard he is doing well and in SCA's ntu crick team with all his sec sch buds.
thank you, for sharing about Him to me. and how HE proved that everything is best in His time. :)
wishing and praying that you are well. take care friend.
