Accelerate Away!
Today was spent almost the entire day at Emmanuel A/G attending the Accelerate conference... I find it really exciting to see a vision for young adults to rise up... its something that is really lacking in Singapore, cos now everybody is focused on the youth age and there isn't really many churches that actually deal with young adults and how they transit from uni to the working environment... anyway today was really talking about how as young adults we shouldn't conform to taking our daily life as a constant routine, our relationship with God as a set of routine tasks, but we need to keep our relationship fresh and alive!! Cos God is just that! He's fresh and different and has so many ways to move its unimaginable! He's that awesome!!!
and the challenge came to really step out in faith, to be bold and not limit God by what we think we only can do, but to let God take over and use us, to surrender and say that as young adults we want to change our generation and the generations after us, cos God is limitless!! and He can change any situation around... I will remember this quote.. "God can change our wrongs into rights, but He cannot change NOTHING into SOMETHING!!"... and "Its only in taking risks, then you can really be FREE." May God help and use me as much as He wants to... I want to be a willing vessel...
I'm glad I went for the conference... also because I made some contacts... and also met up with old friends... Caught up with Alvin, Lung and Rachel... and met Aggie whose doing her masters in IT, and also Charmaine who was formerly from CHS... I'm excited to be going over... I believe God is doing some real work and I pray God will continue His work in my life... =) Unspeakable joy!!! =)
