was typing some sort of a feedback to my chair and advisor regarding Eusoff Christian Fellowship meetings held on mondays, so I thought it would also be good if I forward my reflections to you to keep u updated with what's going on in my life. Of cos many other things have happened and the following is just something with regards mainly to the CF and its quite an informal mail, there are some things you may not understand too haha can just skip it...so just bear with me :)
What I have learnt so far
I guess you must be quite concerned about what I've learnt during the past 2 months being new leading a CG right.. well..here goes...
I think God has been very good to me and I've learnt that in all things.. I really need to depend on God on all things(sch, CG, hall activities), especially with respect to guiding his children. Now that I recall when Jesus resurrected, He asked Peter if he loved Him and if he does, feed His lambs, tend His sheep, feed His sheep. I'm like Peter being distracted by other stuff(he was thinking about if the betrayer would be in heaven), and Jesus told Peter not to be bothered with that but to think for himself 1st..to follow Jesus..(I dunno how to phrase the whole thing la. but i think u get the idea). So I ought to also focus upon Jesus... ultimately..it is my salvation, my calling, my responsibility, my accountability and HIS SHEEPS. who else can I turn to to seek help other than the one who knows HIS sheeps best. And through prayers and reading of His word keeps me focused. It keeps my life in tact too... not like in the past..haha that silly little girl. Tending HIS sheeps is indeed tough but I have to also recognise that God is the one tending it... not me. I'm just a privileged vessel. And over the months, God has kept the group and us(Ian, me, Shuyi..) faithful to the group. Thank God for the people who are still with us today..serving alongside, be it in prayers or in physical service and planning gatherings(Hei Man, Man Yan). I'm grateful also that I've learnt more about building relationships and leading in terms of being more sensitive, understanding and observant (I think la!). I've learnt more about God's grace and mercy. I've learnt more about leaning not on my own understanding but on His. I've learnt more about prioritizing and loving what I'm given(in terms of work-to-do, responsibilities etc in a biblical manner. "
"I am the Lord's servant," Mary answered. "May it be to me as you have said." " Luke 1:38 has never been so significant to me before and lets keep each other in prayers that we may also proclaim what Mary did with a strong conviction.
