looooong day today.. a test at uni, then had to practice drummz then yaf, which ended exceptionally late today.. But we watched the relationship session from the miracle encounter, part 1 of it, which was Ps Victor teaching, and i think it was really good for the yaf'fers to hear it since it's pretty relevent to the younger generation. Q&A session after that was good as well, learnt lots of stuff through other people's questions.. we should have more of these practical sorta stuff more often, it's really useful especially for christians who still don't know so much about the Bible and God's view and so many things. Looking forward to this weekend and church!

Day 98.

Saul saves the people who lived in Jabesh-gilead from the Ammonites who attacked them, and after that happens, the people of Israel rejoice over their victory. Then they decided that Saul should be the king over them and they renewed his kingship. Funny how people won't recognize you until you've done something for them? But then further on, Saul fights agaisnt the Philistines, and because they start to lose, many of the Israelites start to desert him, even his own soldiers. Interesting how people forget so fast about the things you did for them in the past.. When Saul did good, they rejoiced, but once he was down, they start to lose their hope. Similarly, many times we forget of all the things that God has done for us in the past whenever we reach a road block, or a dead end. Are we grateful for a second, then ungrateful the next? God did the ultimate sacrifice for us on the cross, and nothing can top that. Have we forgetten all the pain, shame and sorrow he took on our behalf?
