Pledge
Anyone still remember this song? This is so retro man! Thought I wouldn’t find it on Youtube. Hahaha.
Today was Pledge Day. Had a little struggle at first, but God spoke to me during worship to give an even bigger amount. Was just thinking how to fulfill it as I wrote down the amount. But amazingly, I knew what I had to do by the time I finished writing the details. Felt really happy as I dropped the pledge card into the envelope. Pastor How’s sermon was just powerful.
Was very amazed by Kenneth during service. Halfway through service, he turned to me to show me his notebook. He wrote down every point Pastor said, and even seemed to have his own notes inside too. Awhile later, I glanced at his notebook again. He already filled up his entire first page before the bible study. So impacted by his hunger.
Anyone interested in watching Surrogates? Feels like eternity since I stepped into a cinema. Arghh..
Battles In The Mind
I’m glad I have another afternoon to my civilian life before my book-in later. Haha.
It’s been 3 weeks into army life, and I just had a little taste of what this place is like. I really thought I’d survived the 2 weeks confinement without much hiccups, but I have to say I nearly went crazy last Sunday. I really started to miss Bzone. Our services. The presence of God in our praise & worship. I miss sleeping at 4am. I miss eating with you guys.
I guess a good thing I took from army is that I really treasure every moment I get to spend with people now. It’s what keeps me going. I really don’t get how my army friends can survive when they just sleep their bookouts through.
Just remembered Lixing said you always have to exercise your mind in the army, cause there’s alot of physical work, but no mental work. And one of my friend in my section sets his watch to 6 hours ahead, so that he always needs to think when he sees the time. Haha. Found that quite cool.
Reading the Battlefield of the Mind. Our minds are such a powerful tool. That’s why it’s so prone to the devil’s attacks. Whatever thoughts that we do not hold, we will lose it. So if we do not consciously hold on the positive, we will lose it, and leave space for the devil to attack. That’s why reading the bible is so important. We will not always have positive thoughts to think about, but God’s Word is timeless and powerful.
Rom 10:17
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
So much more I want to say, but I really need to leave the house now. Till then. Laters!
