We'll all bow down...
Service was great today! We started a series of new materials for DG today and i am so stunned that JACK WAS THERE!
My first reaction on seeing him was... "WHY ARE YOU HERE?!" in such amazement. HAHA.. I was so shocked that i din't realise i was saying a very judging statement to one of my 10 years friend. =( Here, my mentor cum BB officer came in and said,"You shouldn't ask why is he here.. You should say WELCOME!" Haha... Mr Or was quite funny when he said that and i couldn't agree more! It is a GOOD DAY INDEED! I'm quite happy that he is here with us in fact as i know through all things, his heart is still a bit hardened. Well! At least he is here with us on our first day on our new material! THIS IS A SIGN! Hahah... All of us agreed unanimously.
The material was on how to become a spiritual fertiliser for myself as well as others. The Tree image came to my mind immediately as well as the candle theory of Mr Ong. However, there's more to it! This is all shown to us when the Apostle Paul wrote this letter to the Thessalonians who were converted and were prosecuted for converting from their Jewish religion. We will always pray for them, acknowledge and affirm any growth you seen, celebrate their sonship and mentor by being a role model.
This reminded me of how i came to be envious and felt the urge to become a Christian. Besides a faith journey, Daniel was one person who i am so envious of because of his undying faith and love for God. His actions and words speaks clearly that he is really a man of God. It is like you see God's image in him and though we as man are flawed, he is really just as close as we can get to to become like Jesus. Well, when we had this discussion shared in DG, both Jack and i had the same models for our Christian lives. First was BB which brought me to the Words which i so treasured and am still using now and the person was Daniel.
This isn't the type of envious in which you yearn to have something tangible in which another person possesses. It is this faith i see in him that at that moment, i thought,
"Hmmm.. How wonderful if i had that strong faith i see in him..."
Since then, he is the model i try to model after. And all is good. =D
Hmmm... He is good. How do i know that? He had a crown of thorns and He carried the cross on his back. He gives me peace when He said,
"Peace be with you." John 20:19
