It has been an interesting 1 week I would say. First week of sem break has come to an end. I don't even know what I've been up to. All I know is I had the best 2 days ever spent with the people I love.
It was my first time being to a Catholic church yesterday. For a person that was born and raised in a Methodist church, I would say that the visit wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. Standing there in the midst of the people it definitely felt weird but there wasn't at all any feeling of discomfort. Even though Mass is run differently from a normal Sunday Service in a Methodist church, we aren't that different after all. At the end of the day our focus is still on the same God and the same Gospel. The Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of truth. One thing I would like to take with me throughout the whole Mass was God's message,
"Don't stop loving even though people might sting you again and again. God didn't stop loving us even though we hurt Him countless times. God's image/nature is to love. So we, as Children of God bearing the image of God, our nature is also to love."
and also the young people serving. It is always a joy to see young people serving the Lord in various ways be it reading the Holy scriptures to doing whatever they do. It's always good to do something for God that matters. Even the smallest act matters, from a smile to serving at the altar, God sees it and is pleased with it.
As for today, I'm just glad that I'm still alive right now. It was a tiring day at Bukit Cahaya. The Ironman Challenge wasn't exactly the best but the team did put in lots of effort in organizing it. Good job peeps. I can say the most fun part was still Praise and Worship. As I stood behind, I learnt several things about the youths. You can see it as a positive way or a negative way but I myself would see it as a positive thing as I am very proud of the enthusiasm. I do hope we'll all continue be on fire for God as we are today.
