It's Been Long...

Since I updated this blog. Well, life has been busy for me. Homework, CF, and also the Easter Day event thing. That was certainly a handful. Talking about Easter, I think I grew a lot after the event, character and spiritually, but definitely not size... I'm still short.. Sob sob.

The size thing aside, I think I really did grow. This event shaped me up a little bit, being more stern when I have to, though I'm no where near the famous sterners in church yet. Wahahaha. Sorry to those I've offended in the process of practicing. It does get a bit business when we're doing this kind of things, nothing personal.

Spiritually, God reminded me I'm not alone in my troubles. He made me realise I had my fellow church members who were there for me, some who are going through the same trials, some tougher ones, and some who have experienced them. The crying session (I make it sound so cool) I had that day really released all the pain I was holding in and to know they prayed for me was really nice. So thanks guys!

Also, I think I got a little carried away with inviting my friends to come. Had some painful experiences there and I was very down and disappointed when I realised none of my friends were coming. Got to know about only 4 non-christians were coming, and that didn't help. I felt as if our sketch and the whole event would be meaningless. Again, God proved me wrong. Through the event, Fong Wan, who has not been coming to church, came back again and two of the non-christians gave positive responses. He reminded me again that however small the number may be, He can still produce the best out of it and He will never let our effort and hard work go to waste. I also understood the word "redeemer" with a deeper meaning and Kah Wei's illustration of Jesus exchanging eternal death for eternal life reminded me of what Easter is really about.

Oh well, that's it. Post is a bit long, but do remember I have not blogged in like, a month. So for the post to be only this long is something good. If it were maybe, my sister or Chen Li, the post might be equivalent to a novel. If it were Yen Mei, pictures would be flooding in and the whole Internet line will be so slow you can get a cup of coffee, cook Maggi Mee, take a bath, fold clothes and take a nap. So be glad.

I'll Never...

Underestimate green bean seeds anymore. Small they may be, it's hard to make them grow. My 6th time planting them already.

My fingers are not green. They're yellow. Maybe that's why I'm struggling so much.

I Co-SongLed...

With Aaron for the Children's Hour today. I felt horrible. The kids were beyond control. I talk there and they like never listen. It was probably the 1st time I felt like I was syok sendiriing. For the 20 minutes I was leading there, I missed the youth who would follow me and sing, or even if in the worst case scenario, just stay there silently.

I feel it's a much bigger challenge to songlead with the kids than the youths. One of the Singaporeans (who looked like Stephen Lew) said it was easier.

"Very easy wan the kids! They still young so if you act crazy with them then can d!"

Me??? Act crazy? That's like, impossible wei! I'm such a serious dude! Anyway, I think I'll sit in for the next few weeks in the Children's Hour to see how the more experienced ones do the job. Till then, I prefer the youths. So silent and manipulative. Haha.

I am

utterly disappointed with what a close friend of mine said. I need someone who can keep me going spiritually in school.
