About my week O_O


Hey all! :D

Not really sure what sort of stuff I should be blogging about so... I shall just write about my week :)
Ugh... this week has been pretty crabby for me... getting back June Common test results and realising that I kinda failed almost everything... haha... :P Well, anyway... I told my parents (as any good girl should do. heheheh...) and my Mom insisted that I drop some of my service in church. I dunno, but I felt a little horrible when she said that... Her story was that she put God before her studies when she was my age, and now she's regretting it... which is really sad... but anyway... she doesn't want me to follow her footsteps. And she told me to go think about it, to go pray about it... She said that I should act in preparation of my future (or something of the like) and... that if God gave me a vision that I am going to die soon so I should serve Him with all I've got now.... then I would have her blessing... :(

So I did pray about it... haha... I must've been really bothered about the whole situation that my feelings were written all over my face! Even my teacher came and asked me why I looked so stressed... :P And you know all those spiritual ups and downs that we sometimes have? Well, I was having a spiritual down at that point in time... so I was so glad when I felt God direct me to what I learnt during dg last week: hearing His voice and making hard decisions. I had learnt last week that God speaks to us through the bible. That should we be searching to hear His voice, most of the time we can find it in the bible. After all, it is HIS Word :D

I started trying to recall the stories and parables that I had read before... and wondering if there was any bible person that ever put other things before serving God and yet earned His approval... Perhaps it's because I haven't read the bible sufficiently that I couldn't think of anyone... Instead I thought about Jesus' parable of the rich fool... The Fool was so busy accumulating earthly riches and planning what he might be able to spend them on. In a way it was exactly like me should I decide to stop serving God (even if I were to give the excuse that I'm gonna come back to serve when I'm better off), just so that I can focus on my studies! Then I would become your "mordern-day study fool" ... haha...

I told my Mom my decision, and (Halelujah! Thank You LORD! :D :D :D ) she didn't kill me or anything! *Grinzzz* She was still really skeptical, though... But I don't blame her... I don't think Satan actually wants to let any Christian off so easily so she must've gone through a lot...

"I really don't want you to end up like me," she had said ,"Unless you have a vision that God's going to be with you when you are serving Him, I still feel that you should rethink your decision..."

"But He said that He would, in the Bible. I don't need a vision because didn't He say that He will always be with us?"

Hmmm... Then we both kept quiet for a while.

"Anyway... I think you did the right thing back in JC... Spending your time to sing for God and stuff..." Heheh ... I guess that brightened her up, cos her family (who are non-christians) used to say that she was foolish to allow herself to be blinded with faith and that she had wasted her time... But, hey, the wisdom of God is foolishness to to world, right?

Yups...so... looks like i shall be following my dear Mommy's footsteps... :P
(minus the regretting part of course... haha... I hope :P )

Prinsep Lighthouse (PLH) is the youth ministry of Prinsep Street Presbyterian Church. It’s meant for all youths aged 13-18 years old to come together every Sunday for a fellowship as well as to worship God and learn more about Him.PLH is on every Sunday from 11am to 12.45pm. On usual Sundays, we have worship time from 11-11.30am. During worship, we sing songs of praise to God.

After which the youths will break up into their respective groups to do a Bible Study for the rest of the time there. These Bible Studies are led by Mentors, who are really nice and fun people and are very knowledgeable and helpful as well. While doing Bible Studies, we share about our life too! Our joy, our pride, our problems, our challenges..and through this, we make loads of great friends!!
