I'm in love with Jesus =) If you have fallen in love before, then you would know how's e feeling like. It's a nice feeling to be in love & to be loved in return.When I'm so conscious of His love,it makes me spill out e love to everyone around me.I especially felt so in work today as I sat alone writing my notes.Hope I didnt send any wrong signals to those who came by.Haha =)
After what has happen yest, for me to ever doubt His love would make me lose out on His superabundance blessings He has for me.I still cant fully believe it myself after wat has happen yest.How he has blessed me in a most unexpectant way!
For those of you who are in new creation, I'm sure the Ben Gen camp is nothing unfamiliar to you.For those who have no idea wat i'm talkin about, it's a camp catered for singles and singles alone.Haha.Whoever who came up with this idea deserve my *applause* =)when I first heard about it, the first thing that came across my mind was...It all sounds like a match made in "heaven"-a gathering of believers.Mind me.Hehe. But I think it's really cool cause it's only for those who are NOT married and age between 17 to 70 years old!Haha.yup 70.And I really hope to see one there too =) Am already excited about it!not about e match make thingie heheh but wat God is going to do in e camp!
If this sounds interesting to you, it did for me!The price?For students is 350 & adults 450.Mmm.Dun sound too nice after all rite Hehe My heart longs to be there but my bank account dint tally with e price fix for registration.Hehe My frens tell me to trust God, to go ahead and sign up and e supply will come.I cant remember how many people have told me that. The sunday before, I talk to cindy on e phone about it. She ask me to pray in tongues & go ahead in faith to sign up! Honestly praying in tongues has been easy on my side but to ask me to go to e counter to sign without e amount takes real faith.
On Sunday, I spoke to Cindy again before 3rd service in e overflow room.Told her that my mum dun even know that I'm going although I did mention to her before.And that also she didnt sound to happy about it.Reason because it's pretty expensive.And guess wat she didnt mention to her parents too!Haha ok...at least I dun feel too bad now=) tsk tsk
As I was on my way down e lift(I was rushin then cause I have an appointment with my kl frens & I'm like an hour late!), I ran into one of e children's church teacher.I was held for some time talkin.Oh gosh, here I am rushin for time but at e same time I wanted to catch up with my fren..and suddenly a lady came up to me."Hey you look familiar???....." She was e aunty I got to know below my block e last time I was looking for a room who happens to attend NCC too! Then I went on to ask her "You going for e singles camp?" Oh boy, you know I really thought I have blab out e most inappropriate/"crude" question cause she was in her 50's.Mm.Asking that question to a single 50 years old lady would mean differently to different people.Hehe.And e majority going for it are mainly from campus and young adults.Ooppss..Did I said e rite thing?
And you know wat, she said "Ok, lets sign up together"??!! I really thought she was kiddin.At e counter, when she realize I didnt have enough to pay & would probably need e approval of coach Maddy....she just willingly said" Dun worry about e money, I'll PAY for you!"
Wow.That was like a blessing fresh from heaven =) Never would I have imagine God would bless me this way. And it was just a few steps away before I sign up that I met her. And if I didnt run into my CC fren, I wouldn't have met her.She was like an angel send to me =) You know, i've always admired people with testimony like this, and now it happens to me?!! I'm still recovering from that "shock"....keke.It's all by e Grace-undeserved/unmerited favour of God!
To sheryl, I really thank God that you finally agreed with me to sign up by faith. I spoke to Maddy & she said that you could pay up next week.It's my pleasure to have you as my bunk mate =) You've been a blessing to me beloved sister.Talkin about coach Maddy, when I told her & one of e YAM leaders about it after third, she was so amazed at e very fact that I actually got a 50 plus aunty to sign up for it Hehe and goes on to say " You got to share this in e camp! & we should sent you guys to ask more aunties & uncles" =)
And He reminds me in His word that says...
"And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shall hearken unto e voice of the Lord thy God" Deuteronomy 28:2
yup, you can never out run God's blessing in your life.
It's just so excited to walk in this journey of faith. I realised that most of e blessings I received comes a few days before e due time like e room I got or it's a choice between trusting His ways/your own. And He never fails is we are obedient to His voice.
It was also thru obedience to His Word that His promises were fulfilled. Remember pastor was preaching about tithing? A way for us to remember His resurrection & Holy communion His death? I love e way how Pastor illustrate it on tithing. To ask "Do we really need to tithe?" is like asking your wife on e wedding nite" Do i really need to kiss you??" Hehe. It's just so true. Tithing is a way we show our love to Him. Just e nite before, I was asking God a question and he pointed me to a verse in 2 Corinthians. And I ended up meditating on chapter 8 & 9 about giving.It's a confirmation to me when pastor preach on sunday.
I went out to get the tithing envelope and tithe e amount God purpose in my heart with e little I have. When you start to tithe in gratitude & joy, it activates e power of God in our lives, expecting our needs to be met abundantly. Scriptural tithings stirs up faith! Amen =)
Another great stuff happen too. Remember I was about to meet my kl frens for lunch. When I got there, I was already all excited about e news. I told em about it, and my fren who sat thru e service with me told em that"yea, she was just telling me just now how much she wanted to go." And e boyfrens who's a non believer said "You seem to be always blessed, even e last time I met you" He wasnt at e service. I was just sharing to them how bless it is to live by faith. Steven(from ipoh & my cg)who didnt intend to go got up & said"I'm signing up now" & He left us to sign up for e camp!
The boyfren who's not into church said he dun mind following me to fourth service! He was suppose to leave after worship but He sat thru e whole service! And e reason I went for 2nd was because I wanted to come home earlier to read my articles. Amazingly, I felt more refresh sitting in for fourth.
Thanks to my fren for looking up e journals for me. It meant a lot to me =) I was a little worried then whether I should wait till Sunday to get it from you or go down NUS(which was pretty far.Heh) on friday myself.And I wanted to go bible study on friday as well. Remember you told me to follow e life in me? Well, I really did ask God about it, and He told me "Let him get it for you" I obeyed Him & I just felt so much peace thereafter.
The reason God is blessing me & you as well is e very fact that He wants e people around you to know that He Lives!
8 In this case mortal men receive tithes, but in that case one receives them, of R238 whom it is witnessed that he lives on.Ephesians 7:8
Yea, pastor explain this verse very nicely on Sunday. Dun think I'll share it here =) but If you need to know, just get back to me ;)
Hope you've been blessed reading it. Continue to be Beloved-conscious!
May His Grace continue to abound in you more beloveds!=)
