beyond surface friendships,
i believe i've met my camp objectives. (:
other than running to and fro for medics and mama shop duty, this camp i got to spend more time with the cg and other individuals too. not to mention, got to know people from other districts as well. yay! this time, many new peeps joined us for camp for the very first time too! people from EA1 like linhui, sirui, angelin (considered bah cuz last camp she went home on the first day as she was sick.) and shih ching. whee~ *claps* yea, and here goes our cg's new lingo : "Cute what."..."Natural." LOL. =P -proudly brought to you by the highly influential Yeo Sirui! ROFL. :D
as i could still vividly remember, the third day of the camp was the most emotional one. the cg's covenant to one another, so genuine and sincere.. words that are brought forth from the deepest of each of our hearts. truly moved. not forgetting the song that we sang during Resonance : I love this family of God. when the yhope alumni came to hug me, also did my spiritual buddy! i guess some things just can't be expressed merely by words. though not serving in the same ministry, we know that we're kept close to each other's heart. ((:
have went a long long way to only discover something that i should have confessed to God long ago. but i still believe it's never too late for a repentant heart to experience a breakthru'. :D it's really difficult to explain why i made the decision to respond to the call of rising up the third time and this time it had to be in camp. a myriad of emotions was welling up in me when i made the decision. doubts, uncertainty, discouragements, fear.. you name it, i felt it. i stepped forward because i knew i've not completed what i have been called out to do yet. though with just about two months left and all, i just want to give my very best in all that i do for Christ. if it's God's plan for me to move to another land, at least i know i've done my part by placing that full-stop in a life-transforming story in my lifetime.
i've been thinking,
what does it mean to be a Care Leader?
is it just the skills? people-oriented qualities? stature? character? being sacrificial?
Personally, i came to a conclusion.. it's a little of everything but most importantly loving God and loving people. isn't God's ministry all about people? isn't those lost souls what God's heart break for? skills and character can be built but if you don't love God and His people, you cannot lead them to love God and His people either.
God knows me inside out.
i was discouraged of the fact that my sheeps aren't retained at all.
but God encouraged me with His word, [1Peter5:2]. clear direction from God for the leftover time i have left. not to mention, sirui starting to serve, commit and even came for camp was all because of God's faithfulness. my Goliath is huge so that God can reveal more of His power in my life!
if God is not the Lord of all, then He's not the Lord at all.
no sitting on the fence, i choose to cling on and fight on.
X29 will leave a legacy of this generation. jiayou ppl! ^^
Hosanna -by Hillsong united.
I see the king of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes
The whole earth shakes
Yeeeah
I see his love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing
The people sing
[Chorus]
Hosanna
Hosanna
Hosanna in the highest x2
I see a generation
Rising up to take their place
With selfless faith
With selfless faith
I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees
We're on our knees
[Chorus]
Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I walk from earth into Eternity
[Chorus] x2
Hosanna in the highest
-my chapter to write.
