Hey yo!

Today I went to the Hope chinese service with Quek and Elton and I have learned alot from the chinese service.

Firstly, right from the start of the service, the speaker talked about how people would demolish a building to build a better one, she said that there will be sorrow to people who had lived there or had a connection with the building. It would be hard to see the building get demolished, but it must be demolished to build a new and better one. She continued to say that in our spiritual life it is exactly the same thing. Sometimes in our life God wants to remove something to give you a better one, but God cannot do it if you stand infront of the building and refuse to let God destroy it. It would be hard to let go and let God, but whatever God wants to build over the demolished building, would be better than the former building. It will always seem to us the otherwise, but that is not true, God plans to prosper us and not to harm us. God knows it is going to be painful but that is the whole point, you wouldn't know how much God can restore without losing something. So even though it was spoke in chinese I think God want me to share about a few things, to let God, don't stop God and He will give you something better than what you cling on to so tightly. Its time to let go.

Next, during the sermon, this time its a guy teaching and its the same thing that Daniel taught few weeks ago about prayer. Matthew 6:5-15, to pray personally to God and not out loud to let people see how spiritual you are. Prayer is a 'focus on God' not a 'focus on what people think of you', haha I'm not saying we should stop speaking in tongues during altar call or worship, that is another thing, but more of like a intimacy thing with God. Being personal =]

Another thing I learned from this family is their unity, even though they are small but they are very united, and this is when I realized what it meant by 'God doesn't need a big group to serve Him' because this family made me feel so at home, it was a loving and warm, even though the aircon was superr colddd because I was right under the aircon =/, but just by going there and looking at the way they speak to each other, there was always smile on their faces. We made new friends there which I can only remember 2 of them; I call one of them 'Ah Fan' because he say he is always very irritating (lol), don't worry I didn't name him that, his caregroup already named him that. The other is a careleader of the group we sticked with, which is the youngest caregroup in the chinese church. We was not stopped by language barriers, we could share jokes very openly like we have already known them for quite a long time already.

...after their service ended, we went to eat lunch at KFC with the caregroup and it was very loving and warm again, but I was shaking like crazy because it's still very cold in KFC and I don't know why I still ate the ice =/. Anyways, I learned alot from the chinese group, shook hands with many people; they were very loving. haha If you had a chance do a random walk in to their church sometimes than act like a nonbeliever and God prompted you to come in to their service. You will definitely see how loving they are. =], I think its because they thought we were some walk-in also. (Do we really look like one?), their unity taught me that we must clear our grudges on a one-on-one table talk if we ever have any grudges against people, especially your brothers.
