interesting journey

[The most interesting part of today starts abit later too, i'll highlight it in bold haha. =x]

had service today! woo! tho me and my new info counter team were doing duty outside. the new team includes me, jingjing and estherleow. thank God for this new team=) tho we werent able to attend service inside nexus, we were able to do so outside nexus! =) had a great time of worshipping, praising and learning frm the sermon as well! tho we missed out a few annoucements and a few parts of the sermon as we were doing transactions haha. but still God blessed=) and thank God! today's sales and petty cash added up just right. previous time there were missing money and it doesnt feel nice! scary haha. i was so relieved today was smooth operation without more or less money haha. =x


after service dennis loh met the east in america room, had a time for praying which was useful and needed. praying for ourselves, for our contacts and friends and for the schools we're in charge of. we learnt on what else we can do too to improve ourselves and the time we have in our hands!=)yiqin met our grp after that too, discussed about our SOW strategies and at the same time on what we will be doing the nxt two weeks=)


a few of us gathered to read the word of God outside S11. realli had a great time reading God's word, its simply. mmm. shiok=D had a great time learning frm each other's life as well as we share what we learn=) we went to plaza sing after that as a few of them wanted to eat carl's junior. woah its huge, i wonder why its still just junior! haha jus jk. alrites nvm haha=P we talked for quite a long while der as well haha. crapped quite a lot. but enjoyed it=)





and this is wer my interesting journey begins!
we decided to go home at arnd 10.30pm lidat. i took train so i cud reach home faster. i decided to alight at raffles place to change train instead of city hall cos i wanted to read my leadership book on joshua. can sit down easier to read mah haha. and so i alighted at raffle's place, i rmb seeing the signboard of "To Pasir Ris Interchange / Changi Airport" with that i entered as soon as the train came. i found a seat and read my book. had a great time learning from it, like situations in my life.

i din realise hw immersed i was in reading, suddenly i felt a prompting from God to look up. i saw the northeast line which is in red. im like "i tot its supposed to be green? since im supposed to be in east? " and soon after i heard " Next Stop. Ang Mo Kio" i was like "WAD?! since when did i get on the wrong train!" i was shocked haha basically and faster changed back train as i was supposed to reach home by nw! of cos i gave my dad a call to explain wad a dumb situation i was in haha. i decided to change at city hall this time cos i dun wan to board the wrong train again and yes i checked again. i still duno why i was on the wrong train tho haha. while doing all of that i was reading the book all along and i managed to finish chapter 7. 2 more chapters left! yay! i thought thru the questions given right at the end of the chapter. i too again were abit too immersed in my thoughts, when i finished my reflection then i realised. WOAH just nice, Tampines. Right after i finish that whole chapter of life changing moments. God's perfect plan man.

i enjoyed the trip tons, alone with God=) i managed to thought thru and gain some new perspectives of my purpose in His Kingdom. i realli love it and that is why i wudnt say my extended time was a waste. it was more like God brought me for that huge detour knowing i really need to spend some gd quality time with Him alone. im realli glad i went thru that=) i feel realli honoured to have God do all that for me! afterall He's God leh! haha. simply love being in God's presence and learning from Him.

while i gain some new perspectives. i also received a specific verse on what today dennis loh talked about to the East in the afternoon.

Matthew 7:7-8 7"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

just as what God's word says. Seek for the people and we will find them, Ask and labour in prayer for them and salvation will come to pass for them as well. Knock on their hearts too and God will open that door in their hearts that which can never be closed.Seek,Ask and Knock. the crucial things we need to do in nx 2 wks for the last leap and the whole of our christian life!

Seek,Ask and Knock. Gather Contacts,Pray, SOW.

God will be able to use us when we want to be used, but we can only be used GREATLY when we are willing to let our time be used as well. smth i learnt when we read the word outside S11.

j'aime Dieu. Dieu, Vous vous balancez! [I love You God. God, You rock!] (please note its not exactly the perfect french, in fact i tink its broken! =x)
