Lost contact with the outside world for 3 days; no handphone just connected to God and church people. A great experience with a lot of mosqitoes bites. Praise God; I'm pretty sure it's not dengue!
Topics were quite interesting and awakening; although not as impactful as it can be. What I like and enjoyed most was the last night of sermon and sharing; although irritated. You see, last night talked about battle with satan and it's evil team of fallen angels. So, people got interested about ghost stories and "interesting" seeing that each had seen or experience. At first it was pretty alright; but it kept going on and on.. going no where. It's like it's not gonna stop! Busy sharing their experience with fallen angels, ghosts or some unexplainable events. I told Fa Wang Lao Shi, why can't they be as excited when it comes to God's word? Funny isn't it? It's also funny when $100 seem so big when we bring it to church but so small when we bring it to the mall. If satan can fire up your interest; why can't God?
I always look forwards to church camp; although it's the same old people and same old problem will come up.. But as the years go by; it's the lesson I want to learn from the camp. It's a great camp in such a short time; great effort for God.
Great night on the last day; almost everyone opened up. I sure do hope people keep their promises made to God.
To JY: I actually wanted to say this that night. I see great potential in you to be a great leader. When I see how you asked and answered questions about God; you displayed your potential. Just that there is something that is not release inside you, deep inside. I might have told you this many time. Although it's hard to wanna open yourself when you really want to; but it's not God that is stopping you but something else. It's hard to read the Bible, to me it's also. Everytime when you don't wanna read or has no reason to read the Bible; can try telling yourself that God is gonna talk to me through His words and I'm gonna learn. Somehow this kept me going on reading. Cause you never know when you will learn something new; something that you have never discovered before in the Bible.
Fa Wang Lao Shi has also improved a lot in his speaking; lesser laughting to himself. I learn from this camp. Especially when QZ Lao Shi shared the testimony of Hong Qi Yun (Former president of Stream of Praise). I was like asking myself, " Am I walking into that?" Then I realise.. I'm beginning to. I asked for forgiveness and it's another breakthrough. Then the talk of spiritual warfare was like.. Haha.. Wow, now I know why "things" happen. Should I then quit my job at the cafe since there's so many "such things"? I know God is protecting me, the satan can't touch me!
Didn't have time to study during camp. I was hoping sup papers would be like Wednesday, Thursday and Friday so I can have more time. But came back and check; OOPG this Momnday, CMath Tuesday and FNDB on Thursday. Oh well, God will guide me.
Lunch appointment tomorrow then Easter day meeting at 5p.m. Church on Sunday, tuition and head home. I think maybe I'll give tuition a miss since I need to study. That boy is having his holiday; while I'm gonna have my exams.
Almost a whole week spend with church people.
