retreat 06
yesterday. a full day retreat... 9am to 930pm. i was a little stoned at the end... could hardly absorb what people were saying. and it doesn't help that i have inherited my dad's genes of stuffy nose. in the aircon room, i kept sneezing and my nose was stuffed up. couldn't breathe well. i was totally annoyed by my nose. because of that lousy nose, it made me feel like i was sick. well, but that day wasn't wasted. i picked up somethings that were being said. 2 things i can clearly remember. Firstly,
Evangelism.................Mobilization
To Non Christians........Through Christians
evangelism is not yfc's idea. it is God's idea.
Secondly,
the speaker reminded me of an impt lesson. God is telling me that being a Christian is all about loving God and loving people. this exact idea keeps coming back to me... in my own personal devotion, when talking to aunty MK, and here at the retreat. everyone is saying, love God, love people, love God, love people. that is my prayer. evangelism is something i want to do because i love God. in this light, evangelism becomes enjoyable, because it is.
help me to trust.
