The ragged pieces of ideas and thoughts of my attempt to live a life as a contemporary monastic in the urban city of Singapore..

 

Can't think of a title for this

Thinking that I haven't been spending enough time with my family, I decided to take them to the Singapore zoo even though I was experiencing some pain in the stomach. When we reached there, we rejoined Friends of the Zoo after 4 months. By then my pain has reached unbearable condition that I couldn't go on. So Mag brought the kids in while I stayed in the car to rest (unfortunately couldn't rest very successful). An hour later at dinner time, I could barely walk to KFC to join the family. Then a friend called if I want to go out to watch soccer together. I gave him the I'm-in-pain-how-could-I tone. He understood. It was terrible.

When I reached home, i had developed a high fever which i knew I had to do something because the next day I'm to share God's word to the children. So I messaged my team members for prayers which they always obliged. The nextday (which is today) I woke up at 5am in a renewed state without stomach pain nor fever. I could feel a bit of a hangover but could rehearse my message and then at 10am preached one of the best I've ever preached. God is amazingly good.

Today, we also had some visitors to our children church. One of them from our church in Kuching. I realise I have so much to say about children's ministry that I speak faster (and more) than my mouth can say them. I was excited on an exciting day. I'm dead tired now and I think I am going to sleep like a baby tonight. It makes a difference with God on our side.
