today was a really great day for me! at first, i looked out of the window and i told myself "ah! i dun feel like going to church" bt den, i went..... i went for service with amy... chat from jurong to simei. haha! gt lots of things to say... mostly, troubles... well, today is sunday.. so i shall summarise my feelings for the whole week... it has been a very challenging week... with lots of set backs and lots of difficulties.. be it in my personal life or in school... well, some of my problems were solved. bt many were not... and so today, i went to church with a very heavy heart... but i told myself that im not going to leave the church until a feel a change. and well, the whole service was really great.. and it all spoke to me... worship was really nice... and before we started worship, the pastor prayed for us and said "maybe some of you just had a conflict with someone even before u come into church, but now, leave your troubles, your worries aside and let's praise the Lord!" gee! the first thing that i heard already spoke to me! well, part of it. haha! and so, the first song was 'shepherd'... the first half of the song, i was crying... gee! the song is like.. such a happy song... and i could help it either... but well, God really spoke to me and i felt really touched that he knows everything that is going on... and hes always there to help me.... and so, the 2nd half of the song, i was jumping... bleh! i jump until my legs were hurting! AHAHAH! bt it was really cool! its been a long time since i worship tt way... haha! all the songs during worship were really good... 'STILL' ahhh! the words were my prayer to God... "when the oceans rise and thunders roar, i will soar with you above the storm. Father you are king over the flood, i will be still and know you are God!" and God reminded me smth that the pastor said "THERE WILL ALWAYS BE STORMS IN YOUR LIFE! BUT WILL YOU STAND STRONG IN THE STORM?" u see... my faithful God will never let me down! and so, i was really touched by God during worship... it was amazing.... :)
then.. sermon.. at first, i tot that it was really boring and i almost wanted to sleep.. but after awhile, i felt that the sermon was really interesting and IT SPOKE TO ME! it was smth about relationship and unity.. and that was the problem i was facing... the pastor said smth which i think its really true 'unity will not come without a servant's heart!' and den, the pastor explained about what it is to be a servant... and today, i surrendered every problem i was facing, to God. and den, the service ended with giving our sisters a hug... aww.. it was really nice... so encouraging... God wants to restore my broken relationship! yay!!! and so today, i left church feeling so happy... God filled me with abundance of JOY!
God knows everything that i am facing... and he will always be there... "i will hide in the shelter of your wings" and now, i can say amen to what kelly said "GOD IS ALWAYS FAITHFUL!"
i shall end with a photo :)
