SIBKL YA Camp

This was my first time going to YA Camp.

It has been only months since I came to KL but so many things have happened. The Mission Trip to Sabah and this YA Camp was interesting. During the YA Camp, Ps Lee Choo shared a lot about the trip to Sabah and the things God imparted into her heart during the whole trip.

This YA Camp was also interesting because I paid RM 200 to do a Reflection Assessment Test. The result of the test were quite interesting, helps me to understand my own interest better I guess. Of course some of the results were quite expectable when I did the questions, but to see the contrast of my interest can help me to better evaluate and make decision I guess.

One thing that came to my mind when I was talking with Dr. Danny (the vocation doctor) over my reflection result was that I didn't look at my interest when I took my job. Of course I did prayed about it and asked a few of my friends to pray as well before my interview, but I didn't took into much consideration my interest, gifts etc.

Probably because of the uncertain bond that I have with JPA. I took the job because the pay was quite okay and the working hours were quite okay. But my recent feelings about the work and the result of the test seems to state that I get bored easily with routined work. I like new challenges and I have lots of interest in management, managing people especially, getting things done through people.

We shall see how this unfolds...

Anyway, before the camp ended, we were given a few minutes and asked to write down what we've learn during the past 3 days, and I'll just rewrite it here:

I need to fully trust in God, wholeheartedly, believing that He loves me and cares about me. In Him there is no condemnation. I need to spend more time with god alone, listening to His heart. When I can listen to God's heart for me, I can listen to god's heart for others. There are many fears in my life, and only the Love of God can conquer and overcome this fear.

And at the very end of the camp, Ps. Lee Choo shared the following:
God Can Be Trusted

*Destiny is a hindsight, not a foresight.

How do we fulfill our destiny?
1. A Desire that, 'God I want to live for you'
2. Disciplin ~of relationship with God, of hardship
3. Discover ~who we are, that God is moving, that we are prepared for a time as this.

During the 1st night when we were asked to pray for another person and hear what God has to say to him/her, the person praying for me said something like God thinks I'm a conqueror and He has always thinks of me in that way since I the past.

Then during the altar call when I asked the pastor to pray for me, she said something like, it's good that I have the passion and desire to serve God and do things for Him, but I also need to input God into myself. It is good that I am willing to go anywhere God sends me, but I need to know God's love for me.

Recently, and even more so after coming back from this camp, is my desire to grow deep in Christ.
And in order to do so I guess I need a lot of disciplin and spending lots of time with God.


God,

Even as I desire to grow deep in You, please lead me and guide me.
Help me to be disciplin in reading Your Word and spending more time with You.
Give me wisdom and a discerning heart so that I'll be able to understand your guidance better.

In Jesus' Name.
Amen.
