Great moments of fellowship

Friday:

We had combined zone cell group @Jurong West Church. It was really great. A time where I felt that peace of God.

He spoke, asking me to lay my Isaac on the altar. It's the most painful and toughest decision that needs to be made. Letting some things go, putting aside all my comfort zones, to step out and start running again. He will take good care of everything if I entrust Him with everything. He will not shortchange me.

Many times, serving and loving God is definitely not the easiest task. People may ridicule us, but God says everything is gonna be alright. It's also just a process for us to grow stronger in the Lord and in character. Everything is worth it!! Press on, Cheryl!!

Dan blessed me with the Nick Vujicic's DVD and Joyce's Meyer's battlefield of the mind book. Both are timely gifts. I read the book before last year and then lent it to a friend. As usual, books that I lend out seldom return. I guess it's good that I reread it again and gain a new revelation. :) As for the DVD, I lend it to Lijun on the spot. I will watch it after she returns it to me.

Lijun and I went to B2 to wait for Terence and Weisiang. There we saw a guy waving at us from his car. Lijun, waved back without even knowing who's that. Guess what, after the window was wind down, it's Kaishen!! We hopped onto his car to enjoy the air-con and to catch up with him a little. Later, I was up to mischief and asked Kaishen to park his car right in front of Weisiang's car. Then, we all hid. We waited to see what his reaction would be. Seldom do we engage in such acts. :P Guess it brought some fun and laughter to those present.

After the service, we (Terence, Weisiang, Morgan, Lijun and me) went to Fung Seng to eat Nasi Lemak. I think it's a good time of fellowship. Seldom, do we have such time to really sit down to chat ever since cg multiplied.

Saturday:

I went to Tampines with Lijun to buy Haoyi's bag. I bought a necklace too. Later, I headed for service as I had to attend nursery on Sunday to see how it operates. I bumped into my cousin, Amanda at foyer 3 and I sat with her. It has been a long time since we sat together for service.

After service, I met Lijun, Terence and Weisiang for dinner. Weisiang drove to Changi Village but we could not find a parking lot. Hence, we headed for Katong and had laksa. The drive was very nice, as old christian songs were being played. It makes me reminsce of my youth where I was in another church. I love old songs. They are very peaceful and I ended up singing them in the car while chatting with Terence about the end times.

After dinner, we headed to Blu Jaz Cafe at Arab Street. It's quite a nice chillout place. I like the guy who played the tubax which is a modified saxaphone. He sang pretty well too. The band was pretty cool. It was made up with two caucasians, one indian and one chinese. I enjoyed the music and the relaxed feel. The seat that I sat on was pretty funny looking but yet it makes me feel like a princess. :)
