back to school!!!

It's been a hectic two days in school back in GRC. With 13 new students on the premises, it's been a busy time trying to keep everyone in line. Thank you to Lydia Chang, Naomi, Sophira, Roberts and the other seniors who have been trying to keep things under control for me!

We had our first chapel on Friday and on the worship team's side, I'm grateful to note that God was working among us. How do I know that? Well, for the fact when I turned to two of my musicians to indicate for them to build up their playing, one of them was lost in communion with God, and another was on the floor bent up with prayer. It was a humorous situation but also a happening which greatly encouraged me. The one thing I prayed for when 2008 started was that the team would be touched by God before it could go out and minister and touch others.

What is the heart of worship? I really asked myself before starting 2008. So many things are happening in my life lately and recently I heard something concerning some friends that made me wonder if that is the path that God is leading me on as well for this year. But it's too early to draw a conclusion, I know God will show me in His own timing.

What I intend to focus and work on for the next few months will be my personal walk with God. I think I can go deeper this year even more. And I also desire to see God change those of us who serve on the worship team at GRC. I want us to be a united team in the spiritual and the natural. Like I said that Friday, it's not about bringing fantastic music to the congregation. That's not what we're here for... It's being a faithful follower of the King of Kings. If we don't realise that first for ourselves, lets not even desire from God signs and wonders, healings, miracles and deliverances to happen among the GRCians. It just won't!

If we can start 2008 with the right perspective, the right heart and with the right spirit, there's no telling what God can use us to do! Let's rise up in faith and conquer more things for God's kingdom this year! Let's be a generation that only cares to seek God's face more than anything else!

God has taken my sins and thrown them outside,
So that He could come inside;
To show His love, His power and healing,
That I would no longer be a prisoner, but free...
