Saturday
Just finished with 4th Saturday. the music was really much better... The chior still requires much improvement. I rememeber sing "I see the Lord" and there is this guy that's trying so hard to reach the high parts, that he over shot the note! He was screaching .... my GOSH!... **Hair stands on ends!**
Anyway, Tv is still blasting! The show reminds me of the times when I have nose bledding. One period of time, my nose bled so often that there are three extra tables behind of the classroom just in case my nose bled in the middle of class! It' was really quite funny... Those days!
Email sharing that I've sent to YIG
Heya,
Just finished with 4th Saturday. Really tired and worn out but, it was really worth it. The music was great and most of all... Today's sermon was really enlightening. [just want to share my two cents worth]. Father Lee mentioned about vocations and making ourselves worth for our vocation... and WE need to purify our lives to be worth for God
It really made me think about YIG. Sometimes, we as members of YIG do not put in enough for God. Everyone have to purify our lives from all earthly and materialistic things of this world. I guess we can start to ask ourselves, "Is the HP our god? Can we live a life without it?" It sounds very funny but there are a lot fo things that are habits - but actually an idol to others. An idol that we can't live without ... For one period of time, coke was my bad habit or an idol that I can live without. - but now, it's quit!
Purifying? All our bad habits, bad attitudes, bad temper, causing disunity, for hurting others, unwillingness to pray or even be as a group during intercessions .. may just be a tests from the devil?
Then, how are we surpose to live our lives? TO be more God-like I suppose! FOrgiving, loving, patient ... The journey is going to be going to be tough, but God would be there with us thru the whole way. For we are all made in the image of God [ and though we are not perfect at all], He would perfect us with His love.
I guess, it's really enlightening to know that we have a greater purpose in life. Our family, our studies are our duties.. so is our christian faith. All have to grow together to be a whole person ... I hope that this little sharing has enlightened all of u as it has enlightened me =0). Take care and May we continue to purify our lives to be worth of Intercession[praying for others - while we ourselves are not worthly of this gift of intercession]. The gift of intercession comes with a level of responsibilities, like any other gifts...
Let's work towards the goal of being Christ like,
