on the 30 May, went for a relationships seminar. (ohh.. then i stayed over at Lest's place! whees) Then on 31 May, went for Missions Conference!
whoo..yes. I definitely learnt much in these 2 days!
In today's Mission Conference, i was very inspired by Ps Sandy from VFH.. She was sharing on how Missions Transforms! Transforms us, our very lives as well as others! It was nice hearing her share some of her experiences and hear of how God moved and did many wonderful things in her life as she avails herself..
She mentioned on responding when God speaks to us.. Respond! Don't have to delay.. if not..God will just continue tugging at you.. haahas.. Then I kept recalling the time when i was at Thailand.. That was actually my very first time really really responding to God! As i'm reminded about that day, I was telling God that I'll always remember that day when I responded.. I may not be able to act in going for missions or even church planting right now.. But that is something I will keep in mind. SO that means that I've got to start preparing myself now! Dennis was sharing to us after the conference that CG08 is very much link to church planting. It's simply the miniature of what we'll do when we go OUT to win the world.. CG08 is the miniature of the Great Commission. Yes, CG08 is our local Great Commission!(Btw, for ya info, CG08 means seeing a CG[community] in every sch in spore!) whooo.. And I really want to make sure I play my part in seeing this come to past.
Preparing myself (to GO!) would mean- *Doing my best in my part of CG08 *Knowing what are my responsibilities, what i gotta DO *And really doing what i gotta do! *There are bound to be obstacles and tough times, I need to go bring myself to go thru all of that! yeap.. with God definitely! How can i ever live without Him! On this point.. isn't it true that if we can't deal and overcome with problems now, how are we gonna deal with the problems in church planting? *Walking with God closely every single day. And doing His work, His way. I need to build my spiritual life strong mannn.. whooo.. *Just thought of this last point.. Be able to lead and work well with others! And together, we'll WIN! Together we'll see CG08 come to past! We gotta work well in our teams.
haahaas.. Sharlene tapped on my shoulder during the conference, and told me.. "Let's quickly complete CG08! And let's go church planting together!" haa.. yeah.. And i was continously nodding my head in agreement to her. Seriously.. we may sound that we're all out to go already.. but.. i don't think it will be too soon as well.. we still got to studyyyy, and see to other things first. BUT then.. It's always good to have in mind about the bigger picture (God's heartbeat is for the world) and preparing ourselves.. Preparation is indeed important.
Act local, think global.
One more thing that I caught in the relationships seminar "Wherever you are, be all there!" -Jim Elliott
Yes! Right now.. wherever you are.. Be all there! Give all you've got to CG08!
wheeeeee (:
