I know it is really super duper good to dwell in the Lord, but it is so hard in these modern days. Many factors come before us just to distract us from dwelling in Him and this is because, we human have put pleasures of our body above Him.
Now then I understand how easy were the seers, judges and prophets in olden days to dwell in the Lord than nowadays. I believe they did not have electronic appliances to distract them. If I was born in the olden days, how good was it. Dwelling in the Lord is a really sweet moment, you can talk to Him and be with Him, just you and the Lord. I really wish I was in the olden days.
But I know, God let me be in this modern age must have His own good and pleasing plan. Even though I may not fully understand, but I will trust in Him. I know it is hard, but Jesus was tempted in the very ways we are now, but yet blameless. Lord, I can not wait for the day when I am in Your arms!!!

At Last....
I used to fall into the same trap again and again. I knew I should stop doing it as the Lord would be sad and could not serve Him with that, but I kept on failing. I prayed to God many times for strength and wisdom and self-control, but I never succeed. Only until this moment, I did it. It was so wonderful and sweet that you could please the One you love and make Him smile. I do not know whether I should fall into the same pit or not, but I know, God has made a way for me to pass through it.
When I was listening to the song "I am coming back to the heart of worship". I saw that I was in a place like there was nothing. I knew who I was looking for. I was looking for Jesus, and what was on my hand was a little, tiny and mini gift box. Its size was just as big as a dice. Well, I saw Him later, I had nothing to give Him except the gift, but I was too ashamed to give Him. I turned my body and said that the gift was too small and it was not right to give Him. But He opened His palm and asked to me to give Him. I refused. He kept on asking me for it. At last, I gave Him. I kneel before Him and cried.
I could not imagine that how much love did He have to do so, it was so wonderful and sweet. I hugged Him and He said everything was okay and needed not to worry more. And that is how beautiful God is. I know His plan for me, and I have decided to do it, even though it costs me everything I have.

Listen, Human!
How long do you need Me to tell you?
How many times do you need Me to show you?
How wicked are you
You know it, yet you have done it
Before the day is here
Bow down and confess
And I shall forgive you
Through My Son's blood
If you believe and are sincere
Be clean and righteous
For I have chosen you
To accomplish My plan
Which is perfect and good
Equip yourselves with My Word
And meditate it all day long
So that you will know Me
And the sign and people
That come from Me
Listen to the Holy Spirit
He will give you all you need
And guide you through the path
He will open your hearts and mind
If only you pray for His presence
Look, the day is near
Read My Word and focus on it
So that you will not be caught
When you are unaware and unprepared
How many times do you need Me to show you?
How wicked are you
You know it, yet you have done it
Before the day is here
Bow down and confess
And I shall forgive you
Through My Son's blood
If you believe and are sincere
Be clean and righteous
For I have chosen you
To accomplish My plan
Which is perfect and good
Equip yourselves with My Word
And meditate it all day long
So that you will know Me
And the sign and people
That come from Me
Listen to the Holy Spirit
He will give you all you need
And guide you through the path
He will open your hearts and mind
If only you pray for His presence
Look, the day is near
Read My Word and focus on it
So that you will not be caught
When you are unaware and unprepared

Understanding
Now I fully understand the thing I saw before. I once saw that I was hugging the Master's legs. I know what does it mean now, it does mean that I was like a lame, I could not walk boldly to share and spread the Gospel.
But when I had fully equipped myself with boldness and love, I ran out to spread the news. When I saw that I was sitting, it should mean that I was about to give up and did not care the mansion or feast anymore. Yet, the Master Himself will show Himself to me and pick me up. All we need to do is wait, as in Philippians, it says that strength will come to those who wait upon the Lord and I can do everything with the One who strengthen me.

BREAK FREE
It was a great experience and time to be in there... I was quite sad as my friend did not want to join it.
Well well, the activities in the camp were good and thrilling. There were a lot of rest time. They were good, as they enabled us to refresh ourselves and have a fellowship time. I enjoyed it. The American team was so nice and faithful to God, they travelled a great distance just to do the work of God. One of them, Brother Nick had fallen ill but thank God that He himself would heal him.
The worship section was good as we had Brother Jonathan to lead us. He was a bit crazy but who cares, we enjoyed it. He hurt his leg but it was no big deal to him. He had lifted up the atmosphere in the camp. If he was not there, then this camp was just imperfect.
Matthew, or we called him Matt, was good in preaching. He tried to use simple words so that we could understand what he was trying to say. I believed his messages had impacted a lot of people and changed them, with the help of Holy Spirit.
Brother Sean, even though he spoke a few, but when in free time, he approached many campers and talked with them. He was also doing all the projector work, not bad for him.
My group leader, Colin, travelled from Tawau to Sandakan and he led our group well. Being an assistant, I had nothing to help out for he had done the most of them. When he was sharing his testimony, I saw a man in white poured out oil onto him and when the oil reached the ground, it spread to every other group members.
On Thursday morning, I saw something. I saw the four of American team were like soldiers, with the Armour of God, in the battlefield. The were marching forward in a horizontal line. The one at the most right-hand side fell down suddenly and the other three marched forward a step and stopped. The one at the most left-hand side was hurt by an arrow on his left leg. But he seems to feel no pain and remain standing. They were defending themselves but they could not help the one that was lying. It was amazing that none of the arrow hit the lying soldier. When the arrows stopped, a man in white came and healed the lying one, and they started to march forward again, yet the healed man was always a step behind the other three.
There was a theft in the camp. It was sad. Even I did not know who was it or who were they, but I believed God was sad to see this happened, yet He let it. There must be a lesson for us to learn from. I thank God for everything, I love it, I love smores, and I love You, God.
