Hello to whoever that is reading this. Well, if you didn't know i was just recently back from camp on the 27nov. A camp called NSCFL, also known as National School Christian Fellowship Leaders Camp. And it is indeed up and beyond. It was so much better thn i'd imagined, thn anyone had imagined i guess. Strong friendship were made and knowledge were gained. And of course not forgetting all the wonderful memories that each and everyone of us made. But i guess, the most important lesson i've learned is about God. Honestly, how great is our God? Just the thought about camp makes me draw a smile. There is so much to tell but where to start! Okay..Doing it the traditional way, first day was definitely a little scared and nervous. Arrived pretty early at SU office, so stopped and had a cup of morning coffee with daddy at a Indian restaurant. Butterflies in my tummy were either growing bigger or giving birth as i got more and more nervous. Thn got on the same bus with Elizabeth and Christopher. Melodie, Irwin and Wee Chung were on bus B. Even if 6of us didn't got on the same bus, the journey there was still pretty great. Got to know Elizabeth more as she tells me about herself and her school. All was good. When we finally arrived, a familiar picture of the place from two years back came rushing by. It was great to be back.
The first thing we did when we arrived were pretty routine. Gathered in the hall, give smiles and made a few new friends thn it was ice-breaker. Together there were 140campers if not mistaken. And the crazies thing happened when we were all having our free time. Melodie wanted to go check out who was going to lead the worship through out the camp. So as i saw her walking towards officer Rachael and a few people who is signing up for their worship term etc etc. I just simply followed behind her. They were all discussing about the arrangement. And out of no where, Melodie and I got dragged in into singing backup. I got to admit i was shocked to hear Daniel called out my name when Rachael asked for backup singers. It was so unexpected! Honestly, i've never thought about singing in front of anyone besides in my bath room ALONE or to my family members. But that was just about it. It was a real big step up for me. Terrified, you got that right! So i'll be singing backup for both mornings on the second and third day of camp and on Saturday morning. So basically i've got the mornings and Melodie got the nights. But later on, realizing that i was actually singing not for anyone each but for God. Made me learned to push my worries aside and focus on singing my very best for God. And you know what? It turned out pretty great, and thn again something amazing happened.
Well after singing, something personal happened that really got me moody and thinking a lot. Doesn't seem right to share it here but the main part of it is that God had found a really cute way to really cheer me up. It all started when i was talking to Elizabeth during our free time. While some people were out playing captain ball and some were just simply chatting with their own click. As i was talking to Eli in the hall, both of us were sitting behind a ''hall speaker stand'' whatever that is called. Just having a normal conversation, i still remembered i asked her something regarding about singing and she told me her experiences and all. I'm not sure whether was i really even concentrating. But as i wondered my mind away, at the corner of my eyes. I spot a spiderweb hanging under the ''hall speaker stand'' thingy. Before i even realized it myself, i was already staring at it. As the wind from the air conditional blew strongly. The spiderweb flew and thn back down. As silly or unbelievable it sounds, i saw a heart shape forming on the spiderweb. Of course it didn't mean anything to me at first. And thn came dinner time, still feeling a little upset and down. One of the dish was fried nugget, and guess what's the shape of it? Coincidences! I don't think so! It might sound silly to you but it meant so much to me. Because i felt the joy within me starting to grow stronger and stronger. And i closed my eyes to think, i heard a voice saying ''It doesn't matter, I Love You''. Right there and thn i knew it was God who was speaking to me. I didn't say anything until we were all gathered in the hall for our Theme Talk like every other night. As i poured the words out of my mouth to Elizabeth and Wee Chung. I couldn't help but start to tears, this feeling is so amazing.
It might seem complicated enough but all i have to say is. When God is speaking to you or showing you signs, you'll know it when you know it. =)
