sunday!! =P

woke up a little late and i rushed a little and left home, for church. thank God that the LRT, train came pretty quick~ it was bus 179 that caused me and another security guy to be late~ loLz=P

thank God we were not scolded~ and we quickly settled down, listened to the briefing and collected our stuffs~

on the sheet of paper, my name wasn't found on the service 4 slot, so i thought that there was an error~ told my IC about it and he told me that i'll be under bro chong keng, doing attachment, understudy~ my jaws dropped and i was pretty freaked out~ but, bro chong keng assigned me to airborne1 to serve~

for the rest of the services, i was in the auditorium~ so, i was standing the entire day without taking much rest, but i didn't really feel tired~ our strength comes from God and even though it was a long hard day, no one slacked~

we had to do catching today for all 3 services~ its pretty slow paced and it gave us loads of time to stand back, look around and move to the next person~ much more confident of my catching now~ like what brother chong keng said, we have to discern if the person would be falling down or falling backwards, so i was preparing myself, praying and focusing on the person.

thank God i made almost all catches~ cept for a sister. after pastor laid hands on her, she didn't move. so i moved on after standing there for a moment. when i turned around and started to look around, she fell suddenly!! i was so shocked and another security guy tried to reach for her, but failed~

after all 3 services, i was told that i got training session. so, thinking that the entire security team would be at the roof garden, i was wrong! there were only 5 of us there, including brother chong keng~ i was the youngest security personnal there, with just 3 weeks in hand. the others had 2 months of experience~

so, we listened to brother chong keng about rising up as a leader and the passion of serving in security~ the training session wasn't anything physical, but mental~ its to prepare us for the next level in security, to lead and to teach~

learnt many stuffs from the brothers who shared~ being responsible and flowing with the spirit~

after 1 long day, physically im tired, but mentally i'm still very much alive~ the important points of pastor tan's sermons are still in my mind, the word of God is still repeating itself. i feel that its a great blessing to be in security, serving the entire day and a even greater blessing when we are positioned inside the auditorium for all services~

when pastor lay hands on the congregation, it gives us the chance to pray for others and to rely on the Spirit. much "communication" is done using the eyes and hands~ to be able to flow with pastor and everyone else can be quite a challenge~ but, nothing's impossible with Christ!!
