Yesterday - 19 Oct 2008(Sunday)
Myself and Kim volunteered ourselves to help out in...
CITY HARVEST DIALECT CHURCH...

It's the first time for Kim...
I felt that if i'm her i will feel that i'm put under a test, because she is appointed to serve outside B2 toilet... Nevertheless its a very important role because a toilet usher has to make sure the safety of the elderly. I'm very proud of her... A humble heart...

Although it's not my first time serving in dialect church...
But it felt so different coming back to serve as a helper as compared to a ministry worker...
However...
I was the only one assigned to serve in the hall...
It was fun...
But i did something very unusual...
Something I had never done in service before...
Which is to do chorus board for musicians...
Challenging... Because I'm afraid that i will flash the wrong thing...
But by God's grace everything was well...

Ya... As I was serving in the hall, which means I stayed throughout the whole service in the hall... So let me share with you what i experience...

During Praise and Worship...
Although there was only one praise and one worship...
But looking at how the elderly worship... I'm impacted to do the same...
They really have a heart that truly pure coming before the Lord in Worship...
They clap their hands the loudest... not only that... they clap they hands high in the sky...
When they worship... Hands were lifted STRAIGHT high...
The sing their loudest...

During the Word...
It spoke about when we go through TESTS... what to do???
Similar right...
A very simple message...
But even people like me are very impacted...
It talks about turning to the Lord in times of trouble...
Because He is the only one that know the ROOT PROBLEM...
Many times God has said to rely on Him... Turn to Him...
So just obey lo...
What God can do is something we can never do with our own strength...

During Offering...
A great offering message also...
it talk about...
How many folds you want to REAP...
Simple principle... The MORE YOU SOW THE MORE YOU REAP...
Let make a decision for God to bless us...

After everything...
They actually choose 8 elderly to take part in a MAKE OVER next week...
I was like WOAH...
Even elderly also want to look sharp...
I think its time we do something about it too...
Lets do something different!

And after everyone left...
A few of us got to arrange chairs...
Not enough brothers...
So sister also did the chair arrangement...

But God is good...
He provided us with dinner...

After a day of serving...
We conclude that Serving Is Fun...
We really enjoyed ourselves...

Lets really learn to serve...
That's all from me today...

In His Love,
Yuping=)
