Hello all(: I've just ended one 'hectic' week at work. Am really learning a lot here about myself.
Been going around with grace to handing out questionaires regarding a project we're both doing...it's no joke walking around for 2 whole hours each day! But the LORD has blessed us and surprised me that many so many people were willing to stop and help us. He also showed me that actually, I would tend to shy away from those i know are truly at risk. I just don't have the courage to approach them! i guess it's a me-centered thinking that is founded on prejudices. something that i'm convicted by, especially since my fellow partner is so open and enthused in talking to them! pray that GOd gives me a heart for these people, who i know really do need the gospel...pray that he makes me bold for him too! and not let my prejudices overwhelm me...
sometimes i feel ill-equipped in this work, since i've led such a sheltered childhood. pray that GOD will make me as crafty as a serpent and yet as gentle as a dove.
also have been learning a lot in morning lessons, like about church history... and how all the diff denominations came about. I guess it's quite sad about the split...that some denominations don't get along, but i'm thankful that although we're fallen humans, we have an infallible GOD. who turns things out to the best. like, because we agreed to disagree, more time could be spent on sharing the gospel, instead of fighting within the church....
yepp, thats all for now!
