Thankful that so many of you can make it... :) When God gave me that verse a few years ago, the only thing that struck me was the promise to grow, that it's a "when" and not an "if". Today, as TMS concludes its five year run as a group in the WEB youth ministry and as you guys prepare to enter into their newly streamlined groups, it struck me that I've been missing out on the second part.
It takes faith to believe that each seed has been sown... and the eventual result would be that of growing into a tree, the largest of garden plants, for birds to perch on its branches.
From those who sticked with the group throughout to those who just came not long ago... and those who came briefly and left shortly after... and even those who just did a touch and go... I'll take it in my stride that this promise shall come to pass for each and every one of you.
And so... I've just given myself something to look forward to in the future. :)
That each of you will grow to serve in whatever capacity that He's called you to. :)
Let's see how the first reunion goes next year. :P
Love you guys.
:)
Changes, meeting different people, understanding different people, moving to a different "culture" and most importantly moving on to a brand new step with God...
Haha... in abt 1 or 2 months time.. we'll all be moving into our different levels of wg... i guess its good and bad for some of us... the good thing may be that YOU WILL NEVER GOING TO TAHAN JAN ANYMORE!! =P But... the sad thing is there.. you won't see my pretty mouth of insult =( owww... haha okok jkjk..
Well.. i understand that some of us will feel really uncomfortable and some of us may feel afraid... well.. i guess for me personally.. i am a bit afraid to meet different cultured people..especially SMARTER PEOPLE.. haha.. but.. i guess this has been arranged not just by Galvs, Mark and Sue.. but.. arranged by God... so i guess one thing i did wrong was to complain SOOO MUCH... i believe giving thanks in all circumstances.. will teach us how to Trust in God... letting Him take control and to be in charge of our lives...=)
So let us try to trust... to begin this journey or surrendering and trusting..=) kk.. i guess i said more than enough.. JIA YOU GUYS! =D Remember He's carrying you throughout this journey =)
