Goodbye?

OMG. (Oh My Goodness!!! *winks*)

In the space of just one day since I posted the James Blunt song, and made a comment abt another one, I've had 3 comments made... and "Goodbye My Lover" was played during service today for the publicity clip!!! Hahahaha...

I really really really liked this song so much... and I really got the shock of my life in service... I had only just put up the song at night... and there it was, playing during the service today. Mm... mebbe it really is goodbye for me? Goodbye to Fiona? Tee hee.

I think worship went pretty well today, all in all. I was really quite worried, since I haven't felt in the right frame of mind for the longest time now, and was worried that again I'd unsettle myself when up there on the pulpit. But I felt a lot better this time round than the last few times. Didn't really feel so lost, my mind didn't really blank out, and on the whole I think the flow of songs and sermon went pretty well.

After that we had a good session of sharing in the Levites Ministry meeting. I think the book we're doing is really good in the sense that it isn't so deep as to get everyone all bogged down in theology... yet not so shallow as to make the study a waste of time... instead I think we got everyone to contribute a little, and share about their thoughts and feelings. I think Bernice brought out the questions very well!!!

Then we trooped off to Zhang Mu Shi's house for a study on the difference between Reformed Contemporary worship, and Contemporary Reformed worship. I think after almost 3 years together, our worship bible study group has managed to gain a pretty common understanding of each other, and so our discussions have become more and more fruitful, as well as proceed more smoothly. I've always enjoyed the sessions, but I think the current topic on the renewal of worship in our church has really excited me, as well as given me a lot to think abt worship in church... how much more there is to it when you're willing to sit down and consider the things we've always taken for granted abt it.

Ah well. All in all, I think I've really enjoyed today... very very very very tired now. Drank 4 cups of coffee already, nearly fell asleep on the way home. Had to go home myself cos my mom again messed up my plans. Sigh. I always tell myself this will be the last time I plan my time to suit my mom's, since she always messes it up anyway... but I still oblidge her everytime.

Dammit.

Talk abt stupidity and how it has no cure...

As I write this, Man Utd is leading Birmingham 2-0, so barring something really really dramatic, this is gonna more or less be a great day. Of course, I better go sleep now, before anything bad happens to spoil the day.

Grins.

Have a good start to the week, everyone!!!!

Thank God for you Bro, worship was good today. To me, it was the prayer that was so powerful, linking last week's message that struck me.

Would I betray Jesus for just 1 month's salary, like Judas ? Or maybe 1 year is more a reasonable value. I can't bear to and I pray that I never will depart from Him. He has been good, and I have been faithless and rebellious. He does not deserve it and tears came streaming down as I prayed. His Spirit was moving people to surrender to Him and thank God!

Thought it will be nice to have the 加略山的爱song but it might be oversung in this season of the Lent.

Glad to hear that you were able to worship in the chapel.

Would be nice too, if you left your name. Too many annonymouses oredi. Grins.

By the way, this applies to all the annonymouses out there, except for the "other".

Tee.

well let's just see if you can guess who this annonymous is... i nearly burst out laughing when i saw the blood drive clip- thought it was your masterpiece- but the song is just so so wrong..
actually i'm not surprised if i was one of those who came up in your conversations just wished you all would tell me straight like i would to you..

Hahaha... Now I'm REALLY confused.

Firstly, too many annonymouses oredi. Secondly, WHAT conversations would your name come up in??? Big mouth like me engages in a LOT of conversations all the time...

WHO THE FUCK READS BLOGS?????

  Just realised the number of views on my page. Absolutely bewildered by who out there still gets redirected to blogs. Surely no advertisers...
