OH WOW.
SO.
I went to the Young Adults Watch Night event...
About the end came a time of splitting into groups to share about how our years went.
Joining the OT's group, I found myself surrounded by so many people whose faces I do not know.
When it came to sharing, I felt the Holy Spirit budging me to speak.
I didn't.
I did not speak.
I couldn't share there, so I thought I'd share here:
For a new year's resolution...
I guess the first thing that pops up in my mind is to get connected with the Young Adults as soon as possible. Or really, as soon as God allows. But thinking about it, I find it a little too specific. Yes, it is one of the issues I'm facing right now in my life, but it isn't the cause. Instead, it's the effect of one issue: I am not enthusiastic for God. So new year's resolution: BE ENTHUSIASTIC FOR GOD. To be honest, I, in a sense, don't really need a CG. I mean. My dad says people go to CG for spiritual rest. But for me, if you look at my life, you'll see that my whole life is spiritual rest! I have a Christian education, a Christian home, wonderful Christian friends, and parents who are so godly that I consider them one of the biggest blessings in my life! My mum says I have CG every night. So okay. How about good Christian friends who will walk with me in life? I am actually not that disconnected to the church... I have several friends whom I pray for and who I'm certain pray for me. And when we talk and spend time together, we'd always share about how God has been working in our lives lately. So at a certain point, I just found myself with an attitude that says: "Go ahead. Give me a reason I should go to CG. I can top it." Then one day when I was listening to a sermon, the preacher said: "You be enthusiastic for God! If you can go better, don't settle with just good when it comes to God!" And I started asking myself: "Can I go better?" Um. Yeah! CG! HAHAHA. And I started really challenging myself with questions like:
Where is that burning passion and desire for God?
Where is that hunger to know Him and the body of Christ in which He has placed me more?
Where is that fire that should be burning deep down within me?
Where is that fire for God?
So new year's resolution: I want to be enthusiastic for God in every aspect of my life. Especially where it's challenging for me. AKA CG HAHAHA So... yeah.
sharing,
Starry
