God's forgiveness..

went for corporate prayer at kallang theatre (745-11pm)..was actually thinkg if shd go anot yest n today but in e end decided to go tho had abit of stomach discomfort juz half hr b4 the bus was scheduled to leave(haiz..muz b the mouldy bread!!argh!!!lucky i realised it b4 i finished e whole slice!haha..but still ate half down lol!=p)

but yar..it was a grt time of prayer n praise n worship..i truly believe tt God'l honour us juz as we honour Him by sacrificing our study time to go down for the prayer meet..we as humans can nvr understand n noe of His wondrous plans..all we can do is to haf faith tt He'll deliver..n no..tt is not blind faith but faith n confidence tt because we haf chosen to honour Him, He sees our hearts and will bless us according to His Word. "A man reaps what he sows.""Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."~Gal 6:7b, 9

Teared during one of the prophesies which i think was Pastor Dinah or Jasmine who shared..it was on forgiveness of guilt n sins..i think i've been struggling with guilt n sins these few days..so much so tt i was biting my own tail..but at tt pt in time, I heard God telling me "Child, u r forgiven." That love He has for me..that mercy n forgiveness n grace was so overwhelmg i juz broke down in tears..only God knew my struggles..only He sees..I'm not perfect but He still loved me..seriously..i've thot of it b4..if our earthly parents love us so much tt they can sacrifice for us n forgive us, how much more wld our Heavenly Father love us n forgive us??

Cant really rem the other pt which struck me during the prayer meet..but think it has sth to do w servg n gg bk HK..sumhow..God seems to convict me that my place is here in Hope..one consideration y i dowan to go bk HK is cos i cant bear to uproot myself fr the church which i've juz adjusted to n grown to love..true..i still may haf my differences..esp since i came fr a traditional church..but slowly those differences r melting away..was readg this devotional..n i agree w it in tt we shdnt use different denominations as an excuse to find a suitable church!no church is perfect..we cant wan to change church cos of our differences in certain values..but of cos if those differences serve to stumble n impede ur spiritual growth, mayb u can consider a change of environment..BUT whateva decision u choose to make, it has b made w God in e centre of it.. i believe God'l reveal to u His choice in due time..all we gotta do is b patient..

tt's y i wldnt say i've wasted my time at LOC where i was placed for 2.5yrs..altho i've decided to settle down in Hope (which amazingly i visited b4 i went to LOC), it doesnt mean my time in LOC was meaningless..cos i think tt time there has taught me alot abt patience..everythg is in God's timing..it has moulded me alot n let me experience tt passion in reachg out to others..sth which i'm putting into practice in Hope now:)

It's juz so amazing how God reveals His face to me at times when i need it..e Holy Spirit was evidently workg in e theatre tonight n i believe there'l b a breakthrough for alot o us soon..i think another thing which i was quite stirred was heart for my pre-believing frens..it's not abt winning converts for the church..it's not a race or anythg..it doesnt even benefit us lol!but it's tt joy of knowing God..tt peace n assurance tt He'll provide tt i wanna share with my frens..tt love n mercy tt HE has bestowed upon me..i'm a sinner..but still He loves me..wah..tt feelg is really indescribable!!it's juz really overwhelming..yar..so i juz pray tt wateva bondages n sins i may struggle w..i'l learn to let go of them..it's nvr ez but I believe tt w God, all things r possible!!:)
