Post Camp

It's been a slew of work since church camp ended! Especially with all the YE outings here and there! I personally don't think I'm very good at rallying people, but I guess I just have to try my best!

So far the first outing that happened was on Saturday, which was the YE ECP outing! It would've been nice if there were more people going, but I guess the group was just nice to cycle with, and there were a mix of people from different age groups so I'm satisfied! The weather was perfect! As for the next outing I'm a little more apprehensive because of the response so far... Seems like there may be not enough people but we'll see! :D It's an outing for God after all, to enjoy His presence around us and appreciate Him for the many leisure activities He provides for us! This outing is for Him! :D

On to church camp! I came with a mindset of relaxation, wanting to have times of rest before God. I somewhat achieved it, but I think that wasn't God's plan for me in this camp! It was to serve just like how Jesus served, and I did my best praying for my peers. On the last night I stayed up all the way till morning, until around 4-5am I spent time playing games and chatting with people, but after that came the serious stuff. I sat around the pool in darkness, wanting to listen to God's voice.

I was asking for His heart for YE and the situation we're in! We're improving, but still have much way to go in terms of spirituality. But God told me this: In the story of Naaman he was told to go down to the river Jordan and wash 7 times to be rid of his leprosy... And in that time of solitude I feel that God was telling me the time of washing of YE is not done yet! We'd only started washing, but the journey is yet longer... So I shall  have patience!

Well coming back from camp I've now got to speak for 1 more YE session, so shall spend this week planning that. The leader's training syllabus is still pending approval, and I can't wait to roll it out! Shall wait in anticipation! :)

Genus 2005

Genus Concert went just fine... NUS Guitar Ensemble is really proded! I want to be like that! Lets see... The guitars I want to master are Acoustic, Bass and Classical! Yeah. Actually this year's Genus concert was a bit interesting. They played a Japanese song and some jazz, but most pieces were classical. The Alto runs were really fast. I could tell that the Guitaron player was good too... Saw Josh there! He was there with his HCJCGE Friends. He was sitting in the row in front of mine. Slept on the bus today and missed the loop. Haha. Well. Had to alight, cross the street and take the bus again. And theres this ulcer right in the middle of my middle lip. It hurts whenever I eat something. But I need my food... Ow. I think the heatiness I get from sleeping less hours caused the ulcer. Looking forward to I-Learning. Can sleep more. Haha. Champions League was crazy. I woke up and went to school to hear the results. ManU Lost 2-0 on aggregate to Ac Milan. Barcelona lost to Chelsea 4-5...

Of God and Demons

Now that'd I've put my last phase of life past me and have some more time to reflect cos I'm C+ for the second time, I feel that it's the correct time to do a bit more reflection about my past, especially the last couple of years. I've always thought that one of the counseling exercises practiced would be helpful for me to process what I've been going through - that is to personify my negative emotions. In a sense to experience that final bit of release from these emotions that have threatened me for a long time. To talk about the inner demons that I've been facing.  Wrath. The fiercest of them all, yet gentlemanly in some ways, calculative in others. People usually imagine wrath to be brawny, in your face and belligerent. But my Wrath is more sinister, sly even. Plotting the downfall of my enemies and using the knowledge that I have to exact vengeance. Over the months I have exerted control of him by reminding myself that only God has the right to judge.

Ride On

Recently things have been going really well. I've had a leadership position in my workplace for almost one year now and it is quite amazing how God has guided throughout the way. Despite this I feel that I have achieved the balance between my work, personal life and I'm in some sort of a flow that makes me satisfied about how things are going. I'm about to transition to another stage of it, and it feels that along the way God has prepared me each and every step. There's a lot to give thanks for.  Things are really cruising along. I've always liked a good, smooth drive and life feels that way at the moment. Its been a long time along a bumpy road but finally things feel right.  Praise be to God who calms the raging seas. Praise be to God who can be counted on for the hardest difficulties in life.  Not sure when the next post be, but I think if things carry on the way they are, more good posts are to come.
