back!
hahaha. (:
learnt alot this camp. the speaker was so amazing, honestly, that i have actually learnt so much this camp. theme this year was "dream partnership", and Ps John Lewis touched on alot of topics that just might, or should i say, be life-changing for me. He touched on how everyone is qualified to be a minister and about our preferable future in our life, on the Moses Generation, Tarraso - to stir up, pentacostal theology and lastly, the FAT (Faithful, Attitude, Teachable) leaders. HAHA.
honestly, i learnt alot during this camp than any other. the few things that the pastor touched on that spurred me on included having desperation for the loss, and that vision is seeing the invisible. WOW. honestly, although he went very deeply into studying the text and also used rather profound terms and phrases, i learnt more than ever before. the amount of notes i took was amazing, but i still feel so hungry for more. even as the sermon lasted more than 2 hours in one of the sessions, i didnt want it to end.
Ps John didn't really do much altar calls compared to other camps that had one every service. he did it only twice, and i went once, but i had the blessing of having so many mighty men of God present. Ps Sunny from Penang, a close friend of my dad and i, also came down with his wife. when my family went for prayer, i just felt a sudden urge of tears coming down my face when Ps John was praying for sis. when it came to me, i just CRIED. i was crying like a baby, to be honest, and i've never cried like that since the 2002 youth camp.
my prophesy included becoming a worship leader someday, and that i am my own, that my dad doesn't make me, me. heh. the funny thing was that i had been suffering from this fear and also pressure of being the senior pastor's son. i mean, you might think, DUH, you'll feel pressure, but i didn't think i had that, until when pastor prayed over me. guess what was the most scary thing? i was being approached a number of times to enter the singing ministry and twice in this camp by both Jason and Jolene. and jason approached me just before i went up for prayer and i tried giving excuses. HAHA. God knows how to kick me into action. heh.
pray for me if you can, people, for humility, that i may forever stay humble and thank God for the gifts in which he provided me. this can be applied to what i learned in this camp, that fruitfulness is not a substitute of faithfulness. i want to be fruitful, not just faithful. and i need all the help i can get. thanks.
