-as i come into Your presence
past the gates of praise
into Your sanctuary
till i see You face to face
i look upon Your countenance
i see the fullness of Your grace
and i can only bow down and say
You are awesome in this place, mighty God-
i recall last year that we had a cg on the day that vj had a psychology talk (30th may...and i really really wanted to go for the psychology talk, but i thought about it, thought about what jt has said before, thought about whether my actions would please God, thought about the consequences of going for one and not the other, and i chose to go for cg 'cos there're always other chances for the psychology talk...whereas cg, once tt cg is gone, there won't be another of the same again..and i really wanted to know more about my sisters in the cg, enjoy their fellowship and learn more about God:)
and i truly did enjoy tt cg. hahaha:D remembered tt we buried a bottle and made a statement to dig it up 1 year later.. i wonder if the statement still holds true. shall ask:)
sometimes i do need to remind myself tt it's a decision/a step tt nbs will have to make themselves, whether to sacrifice a bit of their time to do this thing or another, whether to go for cg or not... we can prompt, we can suggest, but in the end, if they dun take the step themselves, growth won't come with it. 'cos when they truly think through it and make the decision themselves, they convict themselves of the decision made:)
something else i learnt today too...that i should not have delayed the time in rectifying something which is not quite right... i keep thinking tt gentle hinting will do the job, but since i've realised tt it doesn't get to the point, perhaps a gently teaching might help:)think i need to reflect through and pray through to find out the root of why the not quite right thing surfaced...for solving the surface stuff will not quite help... in the end, what is learnt is going to affect the person for life, and not just temporarily.
need to reflect through the way i follow-up as well:)
