its sunday night!
tml gotta go camp. =) gotta think positive!
anyway, its been a great two days.. salvation plus meeting new people that will come to church! its so exciting.. Roland preached a great sermon(though its not new but still impactful) and Rev Patrick Lau preached a similar sermon too! God is just confirming what He wants us to do time and time again.
how? prayer, focus, getting distractions out of the way. nothing new but yet still always needs to be done. with a constant, disciplined effort. sometimes we know so much, we just got to do it. like do it! u know, do it! really, just do it.
prayer is so important. God confirmed it so many times today, through the message, through altar call, through comm meeting. time and time again, whats the private place like? is it filled with prayer? seeking after Him? putting Him first really? or is everything just going on human strength? there's actually a huge difference in two.
now( human strength and some prayer) = 1 salvation so far, new people coming to church, powerful worship, great sermon, open atmosphere.
future( with LOTS of private prayers) = salvations! (1 per week?) new people coming to church, MIND-BLOWING worship(there must be a God kind!), impactful and permanent sermons, open as well as expectant atmosphere, words of prophesy released during service, powerful altar calls with deliverances, healings, releasing of giftings etc. and so much more, thats just the beginning. ;)
its all there, need to just pray, do QT and do the small but important things in our lives!
small things:
parents - spending time(not just dinner silence) but communicating properly, serving them
school - doing well in schoolwork, tutorials, being a positive influence..
those are the main 2 small things. but they're important! i think i'll start to communicate properly with my parents from now on.. really talk to them during dinner times or whenever, make an effort to know them better? its gonna be weird, awkward intitally but its good and going a long way.
bible says to honor your parents and with a bonus of a blessing. ;)
haha. i on this hand, gotta stop struggling and let God be God. stop trying to solve the situation and only going to God when it cant be done.. thats not the way. God has to be there from the onstart. Lord, help me please.
im trading my sorrows,
im trading my shame,
im laying them down,
for the Joy of the Lord..
im trading my sickness,
im trading my pain,
im laying them down,
for the Joy of the Lord..
one of my fav songs too. meaningful to me, hard to sing but its possible..
yes Lord,
yes Lord,
yes yes Lord..
yes Lord,
yes Lord,
yes yes Lord Amen..
saying yes Lord, im giving it all to You. for Your Joy.. Your strength is made perfect in my weaknesses..
im pressed but not crushed,
persecuted not abandoned,
struck down but not destroyed..
im blessed beyond the curse that His promise will endure,
that His Joy's gonna be my strength
though the sorrows will last for the night,
His joy comes with the morning!
His joy's gonna be my strength! =)
whoever that reads this, hang in there. dun be a survivor be an excelator. =)
