Phew.. The week is over! This week's crazy. I had to prepare for tests, had to prepare for consultations, meet my lecturer for consultation on job related issues, had christmas practices, had to busy shop for christmas gifts, had to meet up with Kat........
Thank God! I'm experience Your favor God! You are so real, that I can't deny that fact. I always like attention, and I do experience it from You in so many ways! I pray Lord that You'll bring me to the correct job soon before I graduate. Help me, make provisions for me!
This morning I was so so tensed up to meet Kat. Although the lunch arrangement was switched to breakfast at 10.40am before 2nd service at PL, it kinda means we've less time to talk about things. Well, the faster the better. Less smoky then. Before she arrive, I happen to end up sitting with P.Pete and the gang of co-leaders with a few singers (Shufang & Andrew). P.Pete keep giving me that "signature" look. I will keep reminding him that I'm still wearing a smile. P.Pete very kapo leh. Haha. He saw my handphone and took it without me knowing, and he saw my wallpaper (my childhood pic with my sis, who was still a baby then). He asked me, "Who's this?" but instead of replying his qns, I exclaimed "Why's my phone with you?!" haha!
Somehow when I was still waiting for the appearance of Kat, I kept fidgeting and mentioning that "I'm so scared". Till P.Pete asked, "Why are you so scared? What are you scared of? Why is she so scared?". hahah!! When I'm in the midst of waiting, I do silly things. I recite a phrase or two in cantonese, saying "Ngoh hai leng loy. Lei hai leng loy. Ngoh tey dou hai leng loy". Till TJ/Jen asked who told you that? I replied, "Jesus and myself said so". haha!! Then P.Pete asked, "When Jesus saw you He didn't ask you NGOH HAI BING GOR?". Alamak! My vocab for cantonese is pretty limited, and I didn't understand him. Till Shufang interpreted that statement; "Jesus didn't ask you WHO AM I?" ahah!! Lame...haha
When Kat finally finally arrive, I was like "The time has come...". She sat down and waited for me to start talking (still not knowing what I'm gonna say). I fidgeted, looked around, then finally spoke. Told her I wanted to meet her bcoz I wanted to apologise to her. Somehow she didn't see what I've done has affected at all. Haha!
I ever smsed her a message that's supposed to passed to the leaders, so just to show her that Hey Look! I'm called to do something big! I'm not a nobody hor! However, she said this, which reminded myself alot. She said "Hmm..maybe you might think that positions are very important to you, but it might not be for others. So if you sms this, to show that you're hving a certain position, I don't see it as anything. I should also apologise that you've failed in achieving what you've intended. Haha". Alamak... I also mentioned to her that I didn't only purposely sms such stuff to her to attract approval from people and to believe in my importance. She replied, "Our importance is not in positions, not in others' approval of us, not whether others respect us or not. Remember that our importance is in God, becoz we're His children". Something I knew it all the time, but yet I'm not exercising it 24/7.
She told me that most people would not have any effect when receiving such "accidental" msgs from me. They wouldn't see me any "higher or bigger". They would just feel wierd to receive msgs that don't belong to them. Hmm.. That's OUCH! But but...like what Kat also said, "Move on and learn from the incident lor". Hmm.. I wonder how someone can be so open to say that, after knowin what I've done all these while. It takes a certain amount of maturity and seniority. I need that alot.
She kept reminding me, even on our way to the stairway for prayer b4 service, that "Your importance is in GOd. Never in man. Man will fail you. Even if you b'com the WL of the team, you can also feel unimportant and not respected from man. But in God, you're important. P.Pete is respected not bcoz he's a pastor. Not bcoz of his age. He's younger than many of the ME singers, musicians, etc. BUt he's still respected, bcoz everyone should be respected".
Everyone should be respected!!! That's the key!! Everyone should be respected!!!
