"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."- Isaiah 55:9
i need to learn the lesson of patience and faith, to trust in God that He has His own time and plans for me.
today is our church's 45th Anniversary. it's really amazing to see how God has brought us through the 45 years ... though there may be a lot of events, and happenings that i don't know or didn't experienced, but i've heard about some of them before, cos sometimes my dad will talk to me and my kor abt church related matters... so, yeah. it's really God's amazing grace and love that has brought us through the 45 years and counting.
i rly liked the 3 songs we[combined choir] sang today, "给我信心的眼睛 [Grant Me The Eyes of Faith]", "I Want to Thank You, Lord" and "Hallelujah". the words of the 1st song is rly very meaningful. when aunty kaixin was reading out the prelude, there is just this indescribable feeling in me. to say the truth, i cnt remember the whole prelude, but one part that kept surfacing in my mind is "... 我决不离开你们,也不离弃你们.." and what went through my mind was, yes, through this 45 years, He is always there for us, bringing the church together as one united body to glorify and serve Him.
and the 2nd song, is a simple song, yet the msg is clear. thank You Lord, thank You, Lord, i want to thank You, Lord. and the last song, "Hallelujah" i rly dnoe how to describe. but the "take-my-breath-away" kind of feeling, the 震撼 feeling was during that short pause towards the end, before we sang the last word of Hallelujah. that short but powerful silence, just makes me feel like "wow, God is just so great."
the sermon today is quite good also. it was about faith. there are some parts of the sermon that i felt that God is telling me something... i shan't elaborate it here.... too much to say, and abit hard to say out. hee. had a fun time during the anniversary lunch at Mandarin Hotel too (:
"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."Hebrews 11:1
