[SIMA 2011]
I dont think I have ever attended a conference outside of 4 Christ Missions or KUMCTROY before and i’m glad that God had sent me to this one.
Apart from school and other things, it was good to be plugged into a ministry where it joined many of the local churches together in order to worship and fellowship together. I must say, being part of the administration team did bring light to how much work and prayer goes into forming a successful retreat.
Honestly, I had no idea what was going to happen or what sorts of things God wanted to teach me there but I’m glad I went through what I did.
This was the first retreat where I attempted to take some of my own students there. Although we were very small in number, it was encouraging to see what sorts of things God can do to such hardened hearts…..I never realized how broken my church really was or even at that…how broken the students are…
I was so selfish to think it was only hard for myself…
I am so blessed and so loved.
Thank you Lord.
Finals week. We are all so tired, so exhausted, so….
we take those breaks of procrastination as we immediately type in Facebook.com or Tumblr.com….we put in our two-cents of how stressed we’re feeling….
we use these places as a time-filler…a gap closer…just so we can keep our minds occupied elsewhere from our own books and agenda…
But I was thinking…how great would it be if we took all those little pockets of time to spend on the internet…just talking to God. Telling HIM how stressed we are…how much we want Chinese food at 2 am…or just simply saying “AHHHHHH”…..
But we dont….we go on these websites like I am right now…to give a piece of mind to the world wide web….
If only we could just Simply love the creator all the time…and not just the “sometimes” when we decide to goto church or a set prayer meeting/worship…
Worship could be those 2-5 mins of time spent just telling the world God about your day…
dang…its true…the more you fall in love with God, the more intense you become 0_0
