hello!
wow...havent blogged for such a long time.. so many things to say and yet nothing to say at all. haha. my blog's been quite dead recently and i realised istart all the entrys with:it's been a long time since i last blogged... haha
anyway, Today was the last day for 40 days of purpose and i cant believe it's gone so fast. haha.but it's a good experience ! :) but sadly i was too busy serving that i think i lost my focus for awhile. :( like there are times where we let ourselves be occupied with the stuff in life that we get so busy and lose our focus--God. And i feel that sometimes in church, even though we are busy with church stuff, we can still lose focus . in a way, we tend to forget who we are serving and why we are serving when we concentrate on just to complete the task well. And i realised i let myself get so busy that i cant really give it all out. Guess i need to learn to be selective in serving. Well , though i realised i didnt really have time to ponder about the issues during the 40 days, but i learnt sth about serving Him. It's all about God, not what I are doing. :) and i wanna thank God for that. haha
Oh and i had to bid for an extra module on top of the core modules for this semester. Initially, i thought i'd need to bid on the friday before ministry fair during round 1c and i got quite worried about bidding because: firstly, i had no idea of what to bid for at all. and secondly, i wouldnt have excess to the comp since i'll be in church unless i wanna use the comp in their office la.(they'd be more than willing to lend me the comp but still it'd be quite disruptive to their work if the paranoid me wants to check the bidding again and again.. ahha) So, on thurs night i went online, feeling tired and almost half dead, trying to comb trough the possible modules to find sth to bid for. then i realised that i can bid during round 2a!!! haha yay! tt solved all the problems. coz round 2a will only start on mon :) yay! It's really amazing how the things i have can fit in so nicely even though that week was quite hectic. hahaha so happy! God;s plans are the best :)
another thing about dop. I was really really happy to see people working together for the dop. It really feels like a big family and it's really a great experience when people just cast aside all other stuff they have and come together to serve God.It's a really warm feeling. :) :) :) :) haha how we all came to set up our booths on the day before ministry fair; and people from different service , different ages , working together;coming down on weekdays to prepare for the fair;painting in xibin laoshi's office;how may's friend from ky came to help and how ready our church ple were to serve.
Now, afew things to give thanks for:
1.Thank God for Guiding and leading me through the 40 days, though i didnt really spent enough time with Him and to seek Him
2.Thank God for the peace i have despite the busy schedule.
3. thank God for the chance to serve, and to work with the brothers and sisters in christ through this 40 dop campaign. It really drew us alot closer.
4.Thank God for the ministry fair, for the over 200 people who signed up to serve.:)
5. Thank God for the people who helped in banner pinting and "house"building for the ministry fair.
6. Thank God for the bidding of my uni module.(yay! i found a cheap and not so bad module to bid for! :) )
7. Thank God for Loving me so dearly to die on the cross for me. :)
( believe it or not, He was NAILED on the cross and died for US--YOU and ME.even though we don't deserve it at all. that is how much God loves us !!! :) )
