i was quite encouraged during service today :) encouraged and touched 'cos what pastor brendon was talking about really resonated with what i know and what i believe in. i'm not so much a physics person, but the biological part really resonated with my interest. haha. have learned some of the stuff he talked about before, but seeing it being put into diagrams and videos made it so much clearer. in addition, having it accompanied by other facts put a lot of things into perspective :)
i didn't get the chance to hear much 'cos was outside settling youth camp registrations.. but thank God that i still managed to catch a bit :) hehe.
was also touched 'cos i saw a brother who was not in service for some time, in service today. caught him through the recep tv :) haha. was just reading his blog earlier before service and was quite burdened 'cos he sounded very jaded and i guess i can understand his jaded-ness. i guess in a sense, i'm not close to him, but we've served in the same ministry before, and it saddens me to see what he wrote. of course, the fact that he came from the same ministry as two other pple i know (and know well) who've backslided from hope doesn't help.
but glad that he was here :) and i guess ultimately human beings (like me) can disappoint, but God's Words remain, God's truth remains, God's sacrifice remains.
our imperfections do not blemish His holiness. it just shows that we still have a long way to go.
