Finally, we are in the thick of youth month... As I see the hustle and bustle around me I'm reminded of PoP last year, and this year expectations are running high with SoS... Quite excited to see what will come out of it. If anything, its a big testament of God's faithfulness!
So far I've been focusing more on the leader's training syllabus, and my heart goes out to all the older ones in YE... When I was in YE at the age of 17+ I already found myself not learning much from the weekly sessions, because many of those things were information that I heard before that, and served merely as reminders. I only was able to grow spiritually as a result of putting God and others before myself, and that I learnt through leadership! It's quite fantastic how my spiritual journey improved by leaps and bounds because I was able to forsake my own selfish desires and have that loving relationship with God my heavenly father, and being in favor with man... And I really hope that as many of them find this path as well!
So, some updates on my leisure time activities... For one, I've started being interested in gaming videos, and on youtube I found a channel called Smosh Games that piqued my interest. Most of all I enjoy viewing review + game play videos for some reason I still don't really understand hmmm... Besides that, I've reached the sixth page of Heroic, which is immensely difficult with its left hand repetitions. My left hand hurts even from less than five minutes of metronome practice... I've finished all faction quests for Oblivion, and now focusing on city based quests. Lastly, the latest anime I've watched is Shinigami no Ballad, and I give it a big thumbs up for something different from much of the anime out there. It's only 6 episodes, so its suitable for light viewing.
In my walk with God I find myself in a place of deepening humility, realizing that it is God in control of everything, and I'm merely following along, saying "Here I am, send me..." I also am opening up to the fact that God does not NEED me but He WANTS me to serve with Him. That is immensely humbling, and a new ethos in life that I've come to cherish very much.
My relationship with Van will soon reach 2 years, and what a bountiful and blissful 2 years it has been! Its quite a blessing that when I'm busy with my school work she has the space to support me, and now I'm doing it for her whilst she is busy. God really does put things together with such efficacy... I'm very much enjoying the journey of life that I'm sharing with her, and because of this journey I feel I have matured much and my spiritual life deepened in understanding.
Its been awhile since I've posted, and I've allowed quite a few of my thoughts to amalgamate and ripen, so this post may seem more mellow in a way hmm... Well we'll see what the following weeks bring until the next post! =)
