Had quite a busy day today.. Woke up at 6am so that I can have BS with Fayth & Jolynn at 8am at Woodlands!!! ahhh.. haha.. but I drag Jia to suffer along with me! cos we are attending the Christ CHurch Carnival.. =) Not bad.. quite fun.. spend all our tickets on food.. hee.. As we walked along, I saw alot of students.. the one thought really is- the harvest is truly plentiful and the laborers are really few... I wish I could have all the time in the world to spend time with each of them.. But really, not possible..
Time with the students really will be rewarded.. As I was teaching halfway at SALT today, I received an sms fr LH. She was asking me if there is any verse to get someone to accept Christ. I thought she wanted to share with a friend. So i reply her Rev 3:20. Her nxt reply was, "Li Jie, i want to accept Christ =)". What could I do but to call her immediately and to confirm with her and then pray. LH is an interesting girl. She has an interest in the Word even when she was not a believer. There were interest and desire to know God. Yet her parents' objections were what that was stopping her. I am so glad that she has somehow with the help of God, she overcame that obstacle and decided to follow Christ. Its like seeing your child returning to you. Now she says she wants to share with her friend, who also like her, wanted to know God but afraid of parents' objection.
The most meaningful thing in this world is to help someone to know God, to build a person up in the knowledge and r/s with God. Nothing in this whole wide world beats it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As I enter in social work, and helping some of those people who dont wanna help themselves, I need to adjust my perspective and expectations about my work. Social work target audience and TNT is different. I cannot bring my expectations from TNT into social worker.
I know God is going to stretch my love for His people..Pray with me.. to love with wisdom and depth of knowledge and insight
