Journey to the EAST and had supper twice!
"Party people, hey! it's FRIDAY nite!". NO i didnt go party-ing!
Went to The Third Place @Tiong Bahru with some frenz to watch the gig performed by Parousia!! aftwhich there was a Japanese J-POP band (a grp of young chaps with erm... great courage) and some other bands which i cant rem their names... hee.. ahem! i stil enjoyed Parousia's gig. They played their acoustic set. Most probably they'll have a full band next mth when their bassist returns! waiting in anticipation...
i was hungry thus we went on our Journey to the EAST haha!(Tampines) to meet up with my 2 grandsons for supper... woah S11 coffee is still better den starbucks!! but was in a hurry bec i got to catch the last train to changi airport to meet another gin gang ~hee!.. i rot there for 2hrs!! yup yup by den i was hungry again.. & off to Netwon FOR SUPPER!! aiyoyoyo think i've got worms in my stomach!
~i was thinking thru the issue discussed over supper... & asked God how can i assist/help in any way. felt tt i should browse thru the bk which i bought on behalf of my fren, WAKING THE DEAD by John Eldredge... i'm really amazed how God can surfaced the answer to my question the v moment i flip the page!
here's a note to my newton 'supper Kakis' (u know who u are) -I think what we can do at the moment is to PRAY for THEM, it must be their decision/willingness to change.
Below is My own paraphrase of Matt 13:15 , hope this is not heresy. pls Correct me if I m wrong. It's in context to the sensitive topic discussed over supper (which I will not disclose wat it is abt~~too sensitive)
The Father's Heart cries....
"Is it not that they cant be healed, but they refused to be healed.
For this people's heart have become cold, brittle and shattered, they hardly hear with their ears (could not be bother with the things my counselors said) and they have closed their eyes when the truth was revealed to them. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with ears, understand with their hearts and turn away from their actions, and I, whom u call God would heal them.... life is just not about self.. its not about how u feel and how u're treated by people! God can restore your soul. God can heal your hearts. Its a promise, Now the choice is YOURS. Will you let ME heal you?"
the time now is 6 in the morning and i'm still awake!... bec i drank 1 cup of kopi! haiz i'll force myself to sleep coz i've got to attend a my church camp meeting later in the aftnn.. @_@
