Service, Fellowship
service was great today. even though i woke up a little early to give someone wakeup call lol. today's service was a bit strange..cus its a special SOT graduation and the order of service is slightly different. but the presence of God is always there. =)
after svc took group photo with wendy. congrats on SOT. congrats rhonda. and congrats wayne! overall best performer! ROCK ON man! :DD man, im so jealous..yesterday when ps laid hands..wayne got a word of prophecy! woosh!
waited for trish but in e end. dunno what happened. and of course there were missing people as well.
ps said before..disappointment = expectation - reality. so next time ill just expect people to be like that..so i wont be disappointed. ya. ill just do that. why ruin my day just because of a few people? if they dun wanna change and be accountable? why should i waste my time either? just treat them as nothing more than a new friend.
im not being mean. im just being real. adam said before, you cant be nice all the time. there was once he told me, if people are not serious about certain things, he dont really mind if they leave or change celgrp. just like how he told me during discipleship, if you feel this environment doesnt suit you, you're free to leave. "i want a group thats either hot or cold. if there are weeds, pests or insects, im not afraid to pluck it out, because i want a healthy celgrp." thats what he told me.
that shook me at first. but i respect him as a leader, and i will learn from him. timothy is exceptional haha..uve had a long hard week bro..see you this week! =)) sometimes when i see him, i just see myself. prob thats why i can talk to him comfortable and open myself up easily to him. thank God for friends like that. thad also..sometimes he just reminds me of myself..
and so..if ure not serious? i shall not waste my time to be serious with you either. Jesus had more than 12 disciples and followers, in fact, thousands. but the 12 were the ones closest to him. what happened to the rest? they left. did Jesus mention anything about them? no. he didnt really bother whether they stayed or leave.
the bible didnt mention why they left. their names werent even mentioned. it only mentioned He had many. multitudes! just like the church or celgrp can have multitudes or people following Him. but only a few are actually closest to Him..closest to the heart of God.
like Jesus, i wanna learn from Him, i wanna be like Him. not just in the area of loving people and serving people, but also in the area of discipleship and self-discipline. i dont just talk the talk, i walk the walk. when i say, dont live by feelings, live by revelation, i make sure im doing that myself before i say it. i can feel certain things, but i do that which pleases God. i dont live for the approval of man. i dont need you to like me, i dont need you to approve me.
im just an instrument in the hands of a mighty God.
and so..after service..went to MOS burger @ raffles city basement with pohchoo, pam and jolene for lunch. talked a little about how the first time we came to church, etc. i get really excited when people talk about God. that's what turns me on. haha. im closer to God than anyone else. not even my family, not even my celgrp. its all about priorities. what are your convictions? do you live just because something is convenient?
well..living for God is not convenient. and you're free to back out anytime. the life of a true disciple involves true sacrifice, denying yourself, carrying your cross DAILY and follow Him. im gonna be real here. im not afraid of offending people. after going through the sermon on the mount, i realised ive been too loving, too indiscriminant. if Jesus can confront the pharisees, i can and i will confront.
and believe me, ull hate me when i do. haha. when i take whatever i blog, and one day i cant take it anymore, ill shoot it right in ur face. lets see if u break or not. because a true disciple is teachable. how do you know if a person has Christ on the inside? like earthen vessels, you can apply pressure, but e person wont break. thats how you tell a true disciple from others.
after lunch, walked in comex for awhile. pohchoo got her sony digicam. after that met up with huixin, pauline and thad for dinner at far east. man..the fish and chips rocked! the fish is crispy on e outside, tender and juicy on the inside. and the sweetness of the fish meat. man..its just perfect. haha. i wish they had more fish...and i tried the chicken chop sauce from thad, it was just unique, ive never tasted something like it before..=)
after that walked around town..HMV, Cine..yea..one day we'll have fellowship at cine. lots of things to eat and its a good chill out place as well haha :D then took train home with thad and pam.
at raffles, i dunno what happened, the blood vessels in my nose cracked and my nose bled like nobody's business. i was walking from the red line across to the green line at raffles interchange. the moment i stepped out of the train..i felt some thing watery dripping from my nose. and i placed my fingers over it..mebbe its mucus..
then my fingers turned blood red. lol. i took 3 pieces of tissue and tried to stop the bleeding. but it was so much that before i could apply pressure on the spot, the whole tissue was red. and there was some on my arms, cus it dripped.
and so..there i was..carrying 3 pieces of blood red tissue and a 4th one in my nose..with blood on my fingers and arm. i walked out of the station and into the toilet to wash up. halfway, this station control guy looked at me machiam i just murdered someone. haha. yea..took some time to wash up and then continued my journey home. no more blood after that.
thad was telling us..its time to find a gf/bf. we not getting any younger =/ yea its so true. i dont know maybe im just too busy..and im not sure if there's anyone out there who can tolerate my craps and nonsense. haha. i mean, God will bring u to the right people..but its our responsibility to make things work. and so..yea..im waiting haha. i was just chatting with God on e train..and He reminded me of one verse: if you wait for perfect conditions, ull never get anything done.
i was like..OH MAN..haha. okay okay, i told myself..when im done with my army, ill start dating haha. but u know God is mysterious..and He has been a 'joker' already, bringing all sorts of 'weird' people in my life hahahaha! sometimes i just laugh at myself lol. oh wells..if e right one comes before i finish my NS and God gives e green light..why not? lol.
ultimately, its for His kingdom and His glory. let me decrease and God increase!
IHP..IHP..IHP..the start of another nightmare..
