A difference
My mood seems to be in a roller coaster mode lately, especially this past 2 nights. I attended Youth Aflame meeting last night at church, it was my first night after 2 years of absence. I just thought of open up myself and go for this youth service. I used to attend youth service back in Melbourne’s church and I considered myself a frequent attendee there. I realised there was something change in my mindset, a good change to my surprise. If I could attend the youth service there, why can’t in my mother church? I did grumble about our church youths are always clinged to themselves and left the new comers alone, not on the first night…but on the following gatherings. I always think I’m one of the victims since they are not just myself complaining it. I felt things are slightly changed in the youth meeting now, or perhaps my perception towards the group are changed? Instead of waiting for people to care for you, nurse you, spoon feed you; stand up and start greeting each other, shake someone’s hand, say a few words to bless people, hug them (male with male, female with female - a hug oftem make one’s feel warm), if you have their mobile phone number you can also send them a SMS to show your appreciation of their presence. I am sure both parties will be blessed by doing so.
I hope I am not preaching, I’m just telling what I have been practising.
So why was I down? I sneeze again! The throat irritation is a symptom of getting flu. OMG, I don’t want to be sick again. I now make a declaration statement to whatever sickness trying to distract me from leading a good health, “I COMMAND YOU - ILLNESS STAY FAR FAR AWAY FROM ME! DO NOT GET CLOSE TO ME!!! FLEE!!”
I sound spiritual eh? Well, try and get sick for 2 months continuously (God forbids) and see how you feel? I assure you will hate it as sickness will drain you out.
Goodnight as I am knocking off to bed!
