been through 2 days of mega services.metamorphosis and easter service.
physically tired.
spiritually refreshed.

struggling between pastoral and in support ministry.
to really balance the 2 seemed pretty tough for me.
honestly, my comfort zone would be serving in support.
then i came to realise, my passion for people aint so died down as i thought.
as i was praying for dung for the holy spirit and then she broke out in tongues, the joy was so overwhelming, for me. the holy spirit spoke; hit me real hard; the tug in my heart made a lump in my throat and tears swell up in my eye. all the more should i outreach. all the more should i take every opportunity to bring people to service every time i m not on duty. (well, i dont think my visitors are comfortable without me accompanying them thru svc.would they even come if i said i coulden be there?)

experiencing easter like my first day at Hope. the sermon was something about god's love to sinners, how doing good (but how much?) wont get you to heaven, that redemming your own sins , wont get you to heaven. how far is heaven? these thoughts i never thought of...a rhema word from God, that knocked on my heart, that made me so touched by His love for me, that made me cried so unglamourously during altar call and practically every worship. but not so much now...has it become a routine? has the passion died down?

"There are periods of spiritual drought for everyone, when Jesus becomes just a name. While this is the time when Satan attacks us the most, this is also the time where God moulds us the most"
NO! get away Satan. it's Easter, the day that victory sounded the whole earth. the day that Jesus resurrected. this is what easter means to me:
God won, Satan lost!
" Holy, holy. God almighty. And forever the Lord is exalted.
Hear the angels, shout His anthem. Ever-living, God we adore You..."

easter service as great with the adults praise and worship team. and landis converted! haha. really looking forward in seeing how God will work in his life. :)
