Mixed feelings
Truly, only the relationship I have with Jesus will last forever.
Just had a great and awesome Beyond camp at Orientus Resort!! It's increditable! love the hangouts, and the resort is really awesome. Felt so close to nature, counting stars.
The air there seems a little fresher as well!
Day 1
I took leave on Day 1, and it's simply fun. Love the photo hunt, where we explore the whole camp site's surrounding, to spot the actual, according to the photo taken. My team works together and had lots of fun spotting, taking, laughing, running.
Did forfiet during the ice breaker. It's so fun dancing "Nobody nobody but you.. i wanna nobody nobody but you..." by our "famous by now" - Wonder G! Esmonde lead us in the dance. He rocks la.
Did another forfeit and wrote "HEART OF GOD CHURCH" with our butts. hahah, it's so funny..
More than just fun, Service on Day 1 impacted me greatly. Garrett share with us the heart of Pastor How and Pastor Lia, and how they are just like King David, wanted to build God a house, and laid the foundations for the work, but it shouldn't end there, because Solomon was the one who completed the house of God.
Solomon live the dream of David, and took ownership of that dream. King David have many sons, but why is Solomon chosen? It's because he place his father's dream above his own dream, and with all his heart, took ownership.
I'm challenged and decided that I will live the dream of Pastor Lia and Pastor How, to raise up the foundations of many generations, loving the youth, and to build a prototype church, to impact the society and the nations, and to be a spiritual daughter of Pastors, taking ownership of my church financially, building atmosphere, pulling down the presence of God, and taking care of people, serving in ministries.
Ended the day hanging out at the swimming pool with becky, samuel, ai zhen, yun, alex, terrance & eugene at 2.30am.
Shower & Slept at 3.30am
Day 2
Wake up at 6.20am to prepare to go to work, and to catch the morning breakfast at 7am. Met Smauel, becky and hui yun for breakfast. Though the food tasted below average, it's a great time to eat together.
Had a busy and "easily distracted" day at work, felt feverish and drank 2 cups of black coffee to no avail.
I was so worried that I couldn't make it through the service with Pst Troy Marshall, and kept praying throughout the day that God will speak to me during the service, and that I will not miss out on God.
And indeed, God answered my prayers! Pst Troy started the service with a prophetic word, encouraging us to hold on to the vision that God has given, that do not be distracted by man, but keep our focus on God. Wow! It reassured me on all the vision God has showed me before and that it shall all come to pass!
Pst Troy also prayed for a refreshing fire to come upon me. Yes, that's what I need. Refuel!
The "feverish" feeling left me too!
Travelled back to resort at 11.30pm, and took a nap on bus. And short naps really works! I felt so energentic for the rest of the night! Had dinner at 1.30am, and together with samuel, becky, yun, nina, ai zhen, terrance, we go around making ppl laugh, knocking on their doors and dance nobody, banana dance, hogc with butts etc. Haha..
After "clearing" most rooms, we went back to the swimming pool, and watch the starry night sky. I always love stars and am so excited when I see them. Left at around 3.30am, and we hangout in Jackson's room before going back to sleep at 4am.
Day 3
Kenneth and Miaow was so funny. They stood outside my room door at 6.30am, wanted to wake me up. Am really touched as they just wanna make sure that I am not be late for work.
Had breakfast with samuel, hao, jackson, becky and many others before travelling to work, which I am currently at now. Haha.
It has been an awesome 3 days for me. Felt refreshed in the spirit, re-aligned my dreams and vision, and enjoyed great fellowship with the coolest people on earth.
Love,
