Retreat 2011

13/06/11, 2259
Back to the room and reflecting Mark 6:31. I just only have to follow His instructions and He'll sure provide the rest I need. :) However sometimes is hard to do so when you're busy doing something, but God needs ask to talk to Him, fellowship with him, spend a special precious private time with Him. God only require us Christians to have faith in Him and fellowship with Him to be close to Him, but why do we always unable to do it? I always pray to God that I want that special time with Him but I failed, thus I need a kind of willpower!! Today, bus was delayed 90 minutes. Reached the “Lotus Desaru Resort" at about 3 in the afternoon. Rooming with Jie Yantze, but we're in the same apartment as Jie Rachel, Jiahui, Jie Ruiqi and Ruth. Jie Ruiqi and Ruth got the master bed room while Jie Yantze and I got the twin bed room and Jie Rachel and Jiahui got the small room. Even though today's a short day, it was a meaningful one. I got to actually know that one small verse meant a lot if we actually spend time on it just like how Jesus' dicsiples stopped their work and spent quality and quiet time with Jesus. I want that too!! :)

Only now then I want to start writing. 15.06.2011 was a meaningful day where I once again was being reminded of God's presence. It was so heart-warming to know that God so very much love us! Well today is our last night. How I wish I could stay one more day; away from worldly distractions. In the morning Jiahui lost her phone but found it at night after sermon. Turns out that someone took the advantage of our unlocked door to went in and steal and it happens that the person only took stuff that was visible. Thank God that it was found :) Like Ruth I will choose to cling on to my beleive and trust that God will lead me in choosing the right thing that pleases Him!
