I could remember this day clear as day because this was probably the most memorable day of the camp. We woke up early as usual. No different as we struggled out of our beds because we had to do our devotions. Now I may sound reluctant here but I’m not. But the fact is my body was still lethargic from the crazy day we had before playing Frisbee.
So my group sat together after the big devotion to discuss what we learnt. Honestly, I have not felt so close to people for some time. I just poured out my heart and encouraged them to pour theirs also. I shared especially about how I have been observing God moving in this camp and challenged my fellas to open their hearts.
Little did I know that despite not having music and electricity that God would tremendously pour down His Holy Spirit in our day meeting. They were soaked. It was a sovereign move of God that kept them hungering for more and more and more. They stood and lifted their hands, tears streaming down. Many were also on their knees heads bowed down as little watermarks were left on the ground. Some just sat there unable to hold back the powerful touch of God even as they sang the song ‘Complete’. For a moment, it felt as if nothing really matters. Time stood still as everyone just personally was ministered to by God Himself.

I have been bugged by some of my readers to update on how I am doing. I don’t know why they are so interested to know about my boring life but well….here it is. hahahah
The word ‘Shalom’ has been rather meaningful to us in Kota Kemuning since the message was preached by Pastor Lim. We have been sincerely blessed and therefore I entitled this post Shalom because it is truly amazing how God works things out and creates a wholeness in us and peace beyond human understanding.
I have been rather blue before my arrival here and therefore rather down. I just couldn’t see why things were the way they were. Now when I’m here, I can only thank God and praise Him. I came back from ‘Shalom’ clinic (coincidental?) today from my health check. Hopefully I will get through all these formalities soon. It felt so odd taking my shirt off to a female doctor and also nurse.
Oh well, I have been struggling to settle down here because things are rather different in terms of functions and pace. More so I just feel like everything is spinning too fast and also the feeling like I’m in a can like a sardine all the time. I have done so many things I don’t usually do just to survive. Thank God I am more than alive besides the fact that my back hurts very bad.
I had a wonderful conversation with a colleague today who was new just like me. I know what you are thinking….she is married with kids. We talked about how God leads us through life. Talking to her felt as if I was meant to be there at that moment in time. Felt as if this was a moment I was created for. Her kid is AD/HD and just relating how God has worked in my family and hers almost moved us to tears. Suddenly it dawned upon me how God was moulding us and making us whole. God has led me this far and I know He will continue to do so as long as I am willing and obedient to Him.
I just can’t wait to see what God has installed for me! You see…. Read the rest of this entry »
