Well after the initial adrenaline rush of excitement about going into army soon its now reached a period of calm just before the storm. Just feeling oddly emotionless about my impending entry into national service.
Trying to complete a couple of trivial things such as Persona and watching the last 20 episodes of the yugioh series. But doesn't seem like I'll have enough time.
Thanks goes out to all those who've been praying for me. My church, my YE friends, my Christian friends. And to those who've been by my side and encouraged me. I'll honestly miss all you guys. And I'm sure you'll miss me too. My facebook fluffpet Roo already misses me. How sweet of her.
Thank you too Lord for the journey ahead. I shall discover new ways of unveiling your glory and letting it shine. I know nothing that comes in my way is too difficult.
Before I go... Heres one final snippet of bible knowledge I'd like to share in conjunction with what we've learnt in the youth leader training session yesterday. Its a poem on the contents of the bible from the qt material I'm using. Here goes...
In Genesis the world was made,
In Exodus the march was told;
Leviticus contains the law,
In Numbers the tribes enrolled;
In Deuteronomy again
We're urged to keep God's law alone
And these five books of Moses make
The oldest writings ever known.
Brave Joshua to Canaan leads,
In Judges oft the Jews rebel;
We read of David's name in Ruth,
And first and second Samuel;
In first and second Kings we read
How bad the Hebrew state became;
In first and second Chronicles,
Another history of the same.
In Ezra captive Jews return,
While Nehemiah builds the wall;
Queen Esther saves her race from death.
These books "Historical" we call.
In Job we read of patient faith,
In Psalms are David's songs of praise;
The Proverbs are to make us wise;
Ecclesiastes next portrays
How vain fleeting earthly pleasures are;
The Song of Solomon is all
About the love of God, and these
Five books "Poetical" we call.
Isaiah tells of Christ to come,
While Jeremiah tells of woe,
And in his Lamentations mourms
The Holy City's overthrow.
Ezekiel speaks of mysteries,
While Daniel foretells kings of old;
Hosea calls men to repent;
In Joel judgement is foretold.
Amos tells of wrath, and Edom
Obadiah is sent to warn,
While Jonah shows how Christ should rise,
And Micah where He should be born;
In Nahum Nineveh is seen,
In Habakkuk, Chaldea's guilt;
In Zephaniah, Judah's sins,
Haggai, the temples's built.
Zechariah tells of Christ,
And Malachi of John, his signs.
The prophets number seventeen,
And all the books are thirty-nine.
Ok thats all for now. I'll post the one about the NT when I come back. So look forward to it!
