Surrender
Finally the day is here for me to leave. Don't really know what to expect because it's the first for me, but I'm putting everything into God's hands.
I'm glad too that I can leave behind my responsibilities and work. During yesterday's Corps meeting, we all agreed to postpone the soccer tournament because up til now, we've yet to tie down a venue when it's only a week away. So now it's either on 1st April or 15th. Hopefully it's on the 15th coz I'll be back by then. Quite guilty of not doing a better job before leaving, but again God has let me see how blessed I am to have those officers always backing me up. Now it's not only Gerwyn's and my crap, it's now everyone's crap haha. It's always good to have David as a fellow officer. He throws back the shit that zone throws to us. Haha.
Alot of people actually forget that I'm after all, only 17. I keep getting comments from people that they got the impression that I'm 20 odd. Pretty cool. But yes, I reckon I still got lots to learn at a tender age, so continue to treat me like a young boy.
Attended Miracle Service at Tampines Lighthouse on Saturday with Joy. It's cute the way they go up to give testimonies. Haha. Really very cute. Finally got to see Wei !! Okay lah handsome lah. Haha secret secret. And the Pacer I imagined in my head looked totally different from the Pacer I saw. Pacman. Not being mean or what, but honestly I pictured a great looking guy from his voice. Not that he's really bad looking anyway.
Today in church was great. "I Will Sing" is such a ministering song. And it's true. "I will sing, I will praise, even in my darkest hour, through the sorrow and the pain." The guest pastor prayed with the Spirit and many fell flat to the floor crying. Could see that Esther was kinda surprised, being a young Christian and all. Haha.
Was thinking about everything that I've been able to do for God, and I feel so blessed. It's amazing how much God has allowed me to do for Him. Looking at how young I am in Christ, I've been super fortunate. But I know that's the way I want it to be. I grow more that way. In fact I can't imagine a life where I'm serving God in only one area. Especially if it's boring to me. Say maybe an usher or someone doing the sound. I know in the end, it's all for God and these jobs are important no matter how insignificant they seem to be. But I know it's not for me. I need something bigger to keep me going.
So far I've been able to serve Him as worship leader in church, evangelistic works in school, mission trip overseas, and when school reopens, I'll be a Discipleship Group Leader, teaching year 1's the Word of God, and the latest is that one of the staff in Campus Crusade, who is also my leader in the mission team, has invited me to help him pioneer a church of youths. So much is there to be done, how can I possibly lead a boring Christian life ? Praise the Lord.
Okay, I'll be gone tomorrow. Maybe you can come surprise me by coming down and sending me off at Golden Mile Complex at 10 am ?? Haha. I'm sure the rest of my team members will have supporters seeing them off except me. So sad. Okay lah, SMS will do. Haha. Just pray for me then. Bye.
Use me well oh Lord my God.
