It's going to be a super long post. This is a caution to those who can't stand long posts. Because i'm not going to summarise stuff. A bit tired already mah. haha. Yesterday, Monday:
Went to 'work' at the coffeeshop with my dad...it was the only the third time that i've worked there, yet I was like...when will be four...when will it be four...because the working time is 8am-4pm...and it's quite's tiring...becuase you are not busy all the time...it's a busy, then slack, then busy then slack kind of job...which is somehow more tiring than being busy all the way...plus i didn't sleep enough the night before...slept at like 4am...then woke up 7am...
The first two times that i went, only needed to serve drinks, clean tables and keep the used plates/cups etc...but this time, had to make drinks and wash cups/dishes too...cus the other adult helper not around...but quite fun...learnt how to make kopi, kopi-o, teh, teh-o, chinese tea, milo, and the kopi, teh and milo peng....heh. But i couldn't catch the less common orders like add milk/sugar, less milk/sugar, and evaporated milk...so my dad still had to make those...haha
Also realised how extremely bad my maths was...and how essential maths is...as in mental sums...because i needed paper and pen to do working...which of course i don't have...ended up giving some people wrong change..think my mental sums would get better if i continue to work there. 'intangible benefits' hahaha.
Went to parkway to get my brother his birthday present with the $30 I just earned. Got him a Christian CD and card (: went home and slept. super tired. Then woke up, bathed, changed and went for dinner to celebrate my brother's birthday. We went to this Japanese restaurant in Ang Mio Kio. It claims to be the cheapest Japanese restauraunt in Singapore. And the food was nice too (:
Went J8 and strolled around while waiting for Claire and the rest. Because we were staying over at her house. (: Brought my brother to see the Ha Ha crab thing. And he actually wanted it. Ohwell. Anyway he has the money lah. Cus his godfather gave him a lot for his birthday. haha. met claire, darren, gavin then went to mac donald's because they amazingly hadn't eaten dinner. And it was 10plus can. Then kevin joined us. After dinner we headed to claire's house. Sang worship songs in the bus and on the way there. it was nice (:
We all went to kevin's room upon reaching claire's house. And commenced our random worship. You wouldn't believe what that led to. Because personally i'm still very amazed by it all. The random worship was soooo powerful. God's presence really came. Ended up crying a lot. It was really very amazing. And God's presence was so strong. As in, we could really feel so much of His presence and love for us.
Sang this song I never heard of. "If He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulder, I know my brother that He, will carry you through" something like that. And I actually saw a vision!! Which is, VERY AMAZING. I mean, I've only seen a vision once, and that was in the tabernacle. So. You can imagine that it was a really powerful worship.
I saw a rainbow. A rainbow is sign, a reminder of God's promises to us. That God will carry us through whatever challenges/struggles we are facing, that's a promise. And God was assuring us that indeed he has not forgotten this promise to us. He has never forgotten any of His promises to us. JEHOVA REMEMBERS. Remember that Jehova remembers. Remember His love. That was probably the best summary of what God was speaking to us that night during the random worship.
I don't want to forget this experience. I want to remember and put into action what I've gained from this wonderful time.
Don't forget that Jehova remembers. (:
