LAMENTED AT; 7:48 am
Yah, so back again. We finished our new life course at church yesterday! Although i went for the last class, I still cannot graduate. I've skipped quite a bit of lessons so they have to be replaced. Mean time, we are learning smile, which is sorta like a way to talk to strangers and tell them about
Jesus. : )
it stands for,
Scan
Move
Intro
Linger
Exit
in a nutshell, all it's about is to share your testimony with people, and hopefully get them to except christ. So yah lah, But honestly in M'sia, i don't think it's going to be that effective. We're all too paranoid about who talks to us. picture this.
imagine this weird girl/guy is staring at you from the other end of the mall. you see the person approaching you, and in the end introduces himself/herself. Then the person starts asking questions and talking to you. what would your thoughts be?
either"what's her/his problem?"or"I need to get outa here."worse,"i know i put my pepper spray somewhere in here..."I mean, honestly speaking, unless you've saved the person in a life threatening situation and he owes it to you, he isn't going to give you that time of the day. But anyways, that's what our church will be trying to do soon. good luck to us! :D
I've also just realised how much I've grown since taking church seriously.
P.s Victor asked us to write our
personal testimony yesterday.
(which is like your life story about how you were before and after becoming a believer.) I pondered for a while, then wrote, I was suprised at how easily it came. and yeah, i did get emotional about it.
I mean, I didn't cry buckets, but I was tearing. And the weirdest thing is, I didn't even know why! I had no reason to be sad or emo. It's just that my life has been full of so many insecurities, I can hardly explain. It's so full of fears that sometimes i feel like chucking my brain out the window. And yeah, every since knowing Jesus, i've learned to care less, and even love myself for me.
And we've always heard this common phrase.
"if people don't like you for who you are, they aren't worth knowing," But the fact is, we can't help but care sometimes. i've been through that whole loop time and time again, and in the end, had to find out the hard way that it was true. I've always wanted to
please everyone. But why waste energy over something
impossible to achieve?
