Immensely touched by the guest speaker, Nick Vujicic, who visited CHC this weekend. Touched by the Word that he preached, touched by the prominent yet still voice within that echoed what was shared and summarised what ought to be done that rang through my mind in midst of service.
Truly, Nick Vujicic is one who is more than a conqueror. Why?
You see, despite being born without limbs, one can truly feel the true joy, confidence oozing out from him from every word that he said. One that is not bound by the circumstances but one who changes the circumstances by first changing his perceptions.
Sufferings, pains, hurts..etc - the negativity of life that no one would chose to go thru'. Ironically, those who actually went thru' the trials are the best person to help those who are going thru the same circumstances. Why? Cuz it's not just trying to get into the shoes, they actually went thru that it.. Identity.. Connection.. Cliche it may be, but all things happen for a reason, regardless you comprehend why. (Deut. 29:29 & IS55:9)
" There is no joy in my circumstances. But there is joy in the purpose of the circumstances."

Going through "sectional divides" within the grey matter within... the "I" section seemed to be gaining decibel.. the "I" doesn't like to wait. the "I" wants to do things of the temporal.. the "I know... " seems to be gaining momentum.. Zitch that.. the clay preferred the shelf than the fiery furnace...
In midst of the service.. the green pasture came back again.. in a more vivid form.. not now.. but one day... might be out of this sunny island for good...

Eugene, saw your comment. I am not waiting for Christmas... it will come to pass... don't want it to be yet another inspired-by-the-grad-yet-not-the-time kind of feeling...
