Coincidence?
Hi people. Here i am blogging again. It's been a tough week. Hopefully the coming week will be a better one. Well.. At least there's a public holiday to look forward to. I'm bothered with some thing.. And this thing has been "Ka Jiao-ing" me a lot lately. I thought of going into full time before but this thought basically just comes and go. Never really took it into consideration. And today, (It had to be today, of all days), Elder Yoke Fooi came up to me while i was heading to collect 2 baos for my bro Daryl and myself and he told me something i'd never expect to hear from him. What more at my age.. The thing was, he came up and told me this, "Lance, i've been praying for you." And i was like. Oh dear.. Wad in the world did i do or shared with him before which required him to pray for me.. And then he carried on by saying. "I think you should consider serving full time." And i was.. You know.. Being Lance.. But with the shocked face. Didnt know how to handle the situation back then.. I was like.. Errr.. Ok.. Will continue praying about it. And uncle YF asked me to not pray for God to show me a confirmation but more for me to pray to God for Him to challenge me to go into full time ministry.
Didnt really have much guts to bring it up during core meeting. But i vaguely talked about it during our meal before core meeting with Daryl and Rachel la. So anyway, after meeting ended, Joyce asked if i was free to go for a drink and i agreed to it. I had quite a few things i needed to share with her since she is my jie and the only one whom i can go to whenever i am troubled. So we headed down to Raffles City Shopping centre together with Ah Bao to eat at "Ding Tai Fung". Man.. The portion was like.. miserable la. But that's beside the point. Kinda shared with them the same thing too. And expected wad sort of answer i would get from them. So ya. So when it was about time. We decided to head home. Joyce then proceeded to meet Ps. Kien Seng and a few others to go for the GDOP. (Sorry i couldn't go) Had to go to my gramp's house for dinner.
Went home. Told my parents about it. They werent the most excited people on earth. Can see from their faces. They told me that ultimately it's my choice. Cant help it sometimes when parents hope for their child to earn big bucks in the future. Was quite discouraged. While we were walking to my gramps' house. My dad was telling me that it was the people who told me i should consider full time and not God. So i humbly accepted that fact. But here comes to shocking bit. During dinner. My grandma, who hasnt received Christ yet but comes to church occasionally, told everyone at the table that she had a dream last night. And.. She dreamt that next time, I would be a pastor. The moment she completed her sentence, you can practically see the shock in everyone's face at the table then.. Well.. I didnt know how to react. Coincidence? 2 occurrence in the same day?
I guess the thing is really for me to pray. And maybe you guys can help keep me in prayer too? Kinda lost. No idea wad my future holds. So ya..
