The nature of ministry is service.
The motive for ministry is love.
The measure of ministry is sacrifice.
The authority of ministry is submission.
The purpose of ministry is the glory of God.
The tools of ministry are the Word of God and prayer.
The privelge of ministry is personal growth.
The power of ministry is Holy Spirit
The model for ministry is Jesus Christ.
I wanna have a heart of a servant..serving and adding value to the lives of others..it's an honour to serve & to bless..blessings...
Been really busy for the past two weeks..
but i cant rreally rmb wad was i busy with..
i seem to be busy every day..lol..but i cant seem to work out what im busy with..lol..
Well...
went down to MOE some time ago with Serene..and guess who we met..lol..
Shiying from nanyang..ahaha..we are taking the same course and that means we are gonna be classmates..this is really so qiao..cus she's also one of the person i got to knw when i was in ny..haha..sat in for the briefing..and had a better understanding of things..and i guess things are not bad..ahaha..
after the briefing went walk around with serene..haha..it's been soo long since we really saw each other..lol..
hmm wad else happened..??lol..
oooh ya..went for sozo camp from the 9-11Jun..it was really tiring..
i was sooo exhausted that i slept continuoously for 2 days..ahaha..
even till now..im still feeling lazy..lol..
all the running around and shouting..ahhah..
but well the camp was okay..
but all in all im proud of e432..
although we didnt win any prizes..or did exceptionally well in the camp..the games..
im proud of how the members take care of the younger ones..
especially when our team was with primary sch kids..
to me..i think this camp is more of a bonding and a test of our own individual character...
haha..the lack of sleep and the hectic schedule is certainly able to let our character surface..
ahaha..the frustration from the lack of sleep..the heat from the very warm weather and the situation of the our team members...is really able to enlarge our fruits that is within us..
it takes patience and perserverance to go through this camp..
like what we always say..it's no longer about ourselves..but really about the people around us..
through this camp we got to really let go of our own desires..our own ideas..
but putting the others first..it's all about sacrificing..
teamwork is really important and indeed the strength of a team is really dependent on the weakest link...
Honestly, for me, through this camp..i felt my character being tested..
ahaha..my fruits of longsuffering..lol..
it was really terrible to be without sleep for 2 days..and having to deal with problems that come..lol..
it takes lotsa energy to be enthusiastic and excited in order to stir up my team mates, despite i myself being really tired..
i think what i really gain most out of this camp..is the moulding of my character..
Patience..love and faithfulness are some really important elements i need..ahha...
Sometime i really wonder if God is trying to prepare me for my teaching in Primary sch..ahaha..
sometimes they are too active for me..lol!!
hmm and tml is 16 June...i have about 2 more weeks with ipac..
seriously i cant wait for the 2 weeks to be over soon..
buttttt..i still got so many deadlines to meet...
the pile of filings and manual..i hope i can finish them before i leave..
and i cant wait for school to start..
soooo many things i wana do...
and im really looking forward to July..
and awwwww tuition is starting again this weekk.....im feeling lazy..lol..
