Weekends

In this July-Aug period, my weekends are now precious time that I spend with my friends, my basketball mates, and in church. Thank God there are no shoots during this period! 

Above, is a picture of my teammate engaged in Laser Tag. I had a lot of fun playing it, even though it was very tiring. After what seems like eternity of running about like a crazy chicken even though it has only been 5 minutes.

All of us ending up laughing at one another, and chasing after aunties. :)

Then, there was SRJC alumni. Above is myself (trying to) looking pretty and also Char in front of our beloved school. But Ms Rivera wasn't around though, sadly. She went back to the Philippines for an emergency.

Anyway, amid the fun, this is a period to focus. Focus on a mega huge task at hand. All will be revealed at the end of the year. Can't wait actually :)

When God Sat Next To Me.

Last Saturday, I remembered vividly, as I praised the Lord during one of my High Praise meetings, I could feel Him nearby. Close, very close, and as I prayed out, the words that flowed weren't my own, but His.

This is the first time, the very first time, I felt God so near me.

The bible says that God is always with us. The Holy Spirit is always with us. But to most of us, that's a concept we grasp by faith, perhaps. I did, and though there were times where my senses were heightened and sensitive to His presence, it wasn't as crazy as last Saturday.

Ben was just beside me, when he felt the need to switch his place to the chair. God would want to sit on the sofa, he was thinking to himself. And I was on the sofa. God sat next to me on the sofa last Saturday.

And it was refreshing and so so so wonderful. So so so so good. SO GOOD!!!!
