Heart of Worship

The past 3 days had been crazy.. and i'm not too sure that it'll be ending anytime soon.. It was the time of evaluating, choosing, and finally handing over of the new committee in CF..

To start off, on Fri we had lunch with pastor.. After that we had a session with her, where we did personality tests and found out a little more about our spiritual gifts and the strength and weaknesses of our character. After that Elder Fook Meng gave a little advice on decision making, before passing the time to the old comms, who gave us the task of planning and executing meetings and events for CF in a ten week period (scaled down to 90mins)..

Things started going downhill on our 1st task.. No one knew who was who.. Where our budget came from.. How to deal with campus authorities.. We didn't even know that MSK was a MMUCS event.. which meant we had to involve both other CFs in planning and organizing.. After the whole thing.. some of us were quite pissed.. some glad that it was over.. and some wondering if we could've done more.. But our eyes were opened to all the problems we might have in dealing with campus authorities.. Especially with MMU protocols.. XD

Ok so that was over.. had to rush off for worship practice.. had a lot of fun.. but dead tired after the whole thing..
Saturday came and went.. Had the most fun during steamboat session with a bunch of girls.. muahahahahaha..
After that hung out with felie n hui lee, b4 headin home to slp.

Sunday came. freakin mosquitoes wont leave me alone.. woke up 5am. Arghh... Sunday service came and went.. Again, had fun playing but my fingers were on the verge of dropping off.. Then round 5pm.. the Handover..

Pastor spoke about how Moses handed his responsibilities to Joshua.. and God's Word to him:

be Strong and Courageous.

And that was our call.. to be strong and courageous while leading as the new comms.. Things seem kinda tough right now.. But i know we can do it.. For God is with us.. and we shall be more than conquerors..

The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me.
Psalms 138:8

Treasures.

We had CG today.. Combined with Esther's CG.. Went to Sakurahouse for dinner, and then to Kopitam in DP.
Had some of the best Jap food around Melaka.. Stuffed myself to d brim.. No pics tho.. XD

Anyway.. Josh said something during the closing prayer that struck me.
That we can treasure this moment we have together. This friendship.. This fellowship..
To me friendships are very important.. and well.. life won't be the same if i haven't met the friends which i did.
They are my gold, my silver..

Then on the way home.. Y-k mentioned something about friends too. Somehow, it warmed my heart.

On a different note, friendships hurt the most when separation happens. and to most i guess, its the hardest to deal with.
But I guess we all have one hope: that no matter how far we are separated, or for how long, in the end, we'll have run the good race, and we'll see each other, somewhere beyond this life.

Peace,
A grateful friend.
