Sunday Service... It was global music sunday. I was trying to appreciate the music and the actions that we had to follow for worship. I was trying to worship God with music I didn't enjoy and singing that I wasn't used to. I was about to make it happen. And then she had to go and say that "...some church's worships are so noisy! No different from shopping centres!"
It just killed my focus... It took me a few moments to convince myself that she wasn't referring to our church. She doesn't know about our worship and our desire to please God. It was simply her opinion and her taste in music which was different.

So anyway, we had a good time of pre-service prayer. I believe God spoke to me during the prayer.
If you fulfill your responsibilities, if you are obedient, I will fulfill my end of the bargain. I will do what you ask. I will bless your church and make it prosperous. Not only financially, but you as a church will grow spiritually mature.

If you are truly a people after my heart, prove yourselves. Prove that you are able to handle my blessings and bless others. Do what I have asked you to do. Pray!! You pray for the leaders? I have heard your cries and I will answer you. Just like I heard and answered the cries of my people and delivered them from Egypt. Pray for yourself(yourselves)! You are the future of this church.


I couldn't take anymore at this point. Kinda like information overload. I don't know what to make of this. Kinda sensitive I know. :/
Gathering of Gatherers (GG) was good too! Stanley taught on leadership again. On how Leadership requires an understanding of the people you're leading. A part of it was similar to my last post about having tact. Thank God that what He teaches me from different sources are about the same topic. Thats the wonder of His divine syllabus!

Had a really enjoyable time for dinner with Xiong, Gloria & Dennis. Had a killer burger at Blooie's. Talked for very long after dinner and then went to The Cheescake Cafe for dessert. We had Raspberry Oreo Cheesecake, Walnut Cheesecake, Blueberry Cheesecake and Tiramisu (my favourite). Dennis and I shared a Ice Chocolate Float and Xiong had Earl Grey Tea. Joked and laughed about many things. Mainly about girls (or the lack thereof). Wahahaha...

Super tired... ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz...
