Today was great!! I managed to finish my accounting assignment and had a great time at Yaf!! Really felt that the worship tonight was awesome! Could see everyone at the front just raising hands and praising God, and that sight just touched my heart. Many people said that the worship was good, and some said that i did well on the drums( thx sam, su, and David :D), glad that all my practicing paid off. Thought Su's new song was a great start to her song writing calling, i know that there are maany more to come too!
There's just something different when i play for yaf and the bilingual service. For example today, right before the worship time started, i suddenly got all excited and nervous and my whole body just started to shiver. Might be because i was scared that i would stuff up, or might be that i was waiting in anticipation to see what God was gonna do in our worship service! Personally, i find worshiping at yaf the best, because there are no limits placed on us and we are free to do whatever we want! The atmosphere during worship is also really good. Not saying that the morning service isn't good or anything, its just that sometimes when i do the sound, i feel restrained sound wise. For some songs it just sounds good when its louder, but i have this 85db limit that restricts me from trying anything new or fancy. However when im at yaf, i know that i can beat my lungs out on the drums knowing that no one cares about how it sounds, but everyone there is just focused on worshiping God :)
Life group today was good too ^^ felt that people were much more open and spoke their mind, which was good, and the new guys weren't afraid to speak their mind too. Finally got myself another notebook to write notes again, since my previous one ran out during the spiritual encounter, i haven't been able to write any notes down. Amazing how bad my memory is, if i don't write anything down, i'll forget in less than a day..
Last thing, i realized that the exams timetable was out so i went to have a look. Noticed that my first exam was just a little over a month away, and i haven't started any revision yet. To make it worse all my exams were 3 hours long and majority of them were in the morning..Not to mention how dead my brain is in the morning.. Oh well, i trust that if i study hard, God will make me proud :)
Ok for devotion today, i decided to read on what Anne gave me as a word.
1 Cor 1:26-31
26Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. 27But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 28He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, 29so that no one may boast before him. 30It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. 31Therefore, as it is written: "Let him who boasts boast in the Lord."
I'm just amazed at God and all his word's in the Bible. It feels that everytime i do my devotion, it is always directed directly at me and to me. It always speaks so deeply into my heart, or into the situation im in. This passage was like fwah! Blew me away when i read it. Really made me wonder how great is our God, especially for cell tonight we talked about how God's ways are higher than ours, and His thought's higher than ours.
This passage made me realize how lucky i am to be called and chosen by God. That He has chosen me in my weakness and foolishness to shame the wise and the strong. That through Christ Jesus who has become our righteousness, holiness and redemption, we can safely boasts in the Lord for He is our banner and our victory! Our very present help in time of need!
God is good, all the time!
and All the time, God is good!
Change my heart O God, make it ever true. Change my heart O God, may i be like you
