for easter celebration/ easter carnival, i was thinking of inviting my friend. but i was kinda skeptical about it cz he's a guy and i would have to jaga him throughout the whole celebration and also during carnival, and people might think that we are more than just friends, when in actual fact he is already attached.
so, i was thinking and praying about this for a really long time, then the night before easter celebration, i msged him, asking him to come. at midnight, he replied me saying he'll come, and maybe bring a few friends along.
fwahhh gembira...
so the next morning, he and 2 others came to easter celebration. before they came, one of the usher asked me and my friend if we could give up our seat for others (cz there wasn't enough place for visitors to seat), but i told him i had 3 visitors coming and i already book places for them to seat. so when they came, another usher asked me if i could move to seat at the back and let the visitors seat at my place. but before he got a chance to ask me, the previous usher informed him that i had vistiors. wah, so relieved i didn't need to ask my visitors to move seats. if not, paiseh............
then during altar call, i had a tugging thought in my mind to ask the 3 visitors if they wanted to go up front to be prayed for. but i scared paiseh, so i kept praying and praying. and no matter how much i prayed during altar call, i kept feeling that need to ask them. so i asked them if they wanted to go up front. at first, all of them said no, then my friend kept saying something like , shy shy, something like that. so i told him i'll go up front with him la, then he went up front to be prayed for. i felt so glad. when one comes home, heaven rejoices. =)
after he was prayed for, he asked me (him me yan pin)
there's a camp is there? when is it?
today.. bus leaves at 3pm.
but it's 12.45pm now..
you wanna come? wanna come?
no time to pack lo.
there's still time. you can go home now and pack and come back by 3 for the bus.
it takes at least half an hour to get to my house. i live very far from here.
or else, you can sign up for camp now, then at night, i'll arrange someone to bring you home to pack and bring you back to camp?
O.o
so he went to camp. and from what he told me, he really enjoyed it. now he's asking his parents if he can join cell group every friday night. praise God man, really praise God.
and to think i almost didn't invite him to easter celebration.
bottom line:
if God asks you to do something, just do it, no mater how paiseh or how stupid. one more for Jesus!
