Thoughts from G12 Conference and other stuff
Ok, my turn le, haha...Let's see, i guess what many of us caught is like what William has shared. I must admit, i don't have much points left to share le, haha... One day I would also like to see my children (Both physical and spiritual) to be serving the Lord and preaching to others.
What I hear the Lord speaking to me was my family's salvation. I guess I have forgotten to keep praying for them, and the Lord convicted me in this area on the first night of the G12 conference.
Let's see, after the first night after supper, I reached home at about 1am, then I was playing with my PSP until 3am (haha, confession), then went to bed. I was then awaken by this dream, sort of a nightmare. In the dream, I was at my father's funeral. Very sad and all, then my mum was there, etc etc. I have no idea how a Jewish funeral is like, but I seem to have this impression that it's a Jewish funeral. Weird though. Anyway, I woke up at 5.30am, and I mean wide awake. So what's the textbook answer to what to do in this situation? Pray la. So I start praying for my family's salvation. Praying by name, praying and at the same time declaring the Lord's glory and victory in my life and my family.
So after that, at 5.30am being wide awake and having awaken by this dream, I start preparing myself to go for breakfast with Dennis and the rest at Simei at 8am. Just before I left my house, my dad came home though the front door from his morning jog. There is this relief in my heart, this comfort just by seeing him, knowing that all is well (even though i know it is, need visual confirmation, haha... The standard, "You think, I thought, who confirm"). So after sharing this with Dennis, 3 points came out la.
1. Reminder to continue to pray for my family
2. Jesus died for us, haha... How I got this is kinda corny. The Fatherly figure dies, and He's a Jew, so Jesus loh. Who knows if I continue to dream, then can see the resurrection, haha...
3. Always share with your leader. More of a coverage and accountability thing, to know that you are being protected.
Basically that's it. The rest of the G12 conference is like what William and Zhi Xiong shared, so no point repeating, haha...
God bless us all,
