It has been a loongg Saturday. I went for FES AGM, it was really better than what I expected. I thought it would be plain boring, but well it is cool when you have voting rights. I got to know Caleb better, and realised that we have common interests. It will be good if he is in Exco, then at least I won't feel weird and lonely during meetings. We were sharing about our visions, and came to a consensus that God wants us to reach out to the international students, cos they are the ones who will spread the gospel to their people back home.
On the way to cell bbq at night, I read the book, Out of the Comfort Zone, which Justina gave me as a birthday present. Justina, it is a good book. Though it was a little difficult to understand some of the examples, the whole idea was put across quite clearly. Summarizing the first chapter, God loves to play the hard way. Sometimes we think of God as a really nice person, but God loves to test our hearts by putting us in weird situations. An example, when you really had a busy day, instead of praying for one hour as you do usually, you pray for half an hour, thinking that God will understand your situation. Though the fact is God really do understand our situation, He actually wants to test if we would compromise to this thought and neglect Him. The book called it a "set-up" by God, just like how Joseph set up Benjamin to test his brother's loyalty. And we are often in this "set-up", where God will test our loyalty and obedience towards Him.
Anyway, I'm quite worried for myself. AGM is on Wed, and I haven't choose and practice the songs for P&W, and haven't prepare my short introduction. I need God's grace, and I need help in preparing the short intro. I do hope I don't get the hard questions for Q&A, and hopefully i don't screw up P&W.... HELLPP!!!
