JG Advance was like really, really fun. It was not too tiring or tedious but had the right balance of sharing and just chilling up there. Unlike convention where everything is rush here and there, JG Advance allowed for a more reflective mode.
God spoke to me during the sharing on the last night. It was about how when Peter saw the waves in the sea he started to doubt and as a result of that started sinking into the water again (straight after being the first human ever to walk on water!).. I guess the waves symbolised problems, and it is very true for myself that whenever I have this issues in front of me, I tend to lose focus on the one who should be focused upon, Jesus.
It's not just the job and all that, but also issues and experiences that I find it hard at times to let go to God. I don't want to move on and just serve, serve, serve without clearing some of this issues, as this can potentially be harmful in later days if not dealt with.
Yet I felt God was telling me that at times I have let this issues consume me. From the inside out. In a bad way at times. And I was challenged to let God deal with some of the issues, yet not sweeping them under the carpet and pretending they don't exists, but trusting God with them.
On a lighter note, the fellowship at JG Advance totally rocks!! Seriously!! We were really earth-moving, caretaker-awakening ppl !! Haha.. To the caretaker of Camp Tamborine (who if in the remotest chance reads this blog) I apologise on my part for the racket...
What racket... ?!?!??!?!
WELL>...
There were a few groups of us playing in the dining room... The scrabble nerds (though I think they had the last laugh when the caretaker came in. haha) ..Wen An, Lem, Miao Miao and few others, the Uno Gang led by the infamous KaKa Kan, and last but not least the Indian Poker gang..
Cut a long story short the loser had to drink half a jug of water (Yes, you read correctly, WATER.. being the Godly ppl we are, we didn't use the normal liquids most ppl might use in poker.. haha) ... And yours truly drowned about 1.5 jugs of water.. My stomach was so bloated it looked like I had twins!! Later we moved to push ups, where my luck didn't change either and I did the most push ups of all! Truly a mountain-top experience, beats fitness first anytime!
