No Church Today!
Instead, we were at Clementi doing a community event for the residents there.
My throat is now sore because of the numerous instructions I've repeated from 11am - 3pm. I was in charge of a children's game booth "Test your memory", and was the person in charge of giving instructions to the children who came to my booth. They are to memorise the order of colour cards and recite them when the cards are covered.
It's good to see that a lot of the children of the residents came to participate. There were good reports of the participation of the residents. And of course, the most rewarding thing for me is to see the banners that I have designed for the social services arm of the church being hang out in the public. Also to hear a team-worker commented that I have a lot of patience, repeating the instructions to every child when they came by :D
Came home with tired feet and tried to sleep; Can't do so because the mind's not ready to do so. I think everyone who were actively involved are tired. But it was a good thing to see the entire church out there doing a community service. Everyone did their part in participation, irregardless of our skin colour.
Phew! I need rest!
Yesterday I took my nieces to the drawing competition for Children's Day. Before we left the house, I took them and their mom, my sister, into the room to pray. They have had nightmares and my sister kept waking up in the middle of the night. I was glad to hear that the elder niece told me after we prayed, the monsters in her mind disappeared. Praise God! I've also told them that they should always believe the greatest name, Jesus, is bigger than any monsters, and they should always call on His name if they feel sad or fearful.
Both of them are understands the concept of drawing better this time round, though they still need some more practice. After that, we went to the nearby mall to have ice-cream, waffles and buffalo wings (they didn't like it). Then we head home.
When we got home, my sister told me that she was wondering if she was "punished" for the money she has withheld from the previous maid who returned to Indonesia and did not returned. I've told her that it is not her fault that she has to withheld it, because the maid chose not to come back. So you can tell my sister is still blaming herself for what had happened.
Fortunately, she had asked to listen to worship songs, and I've ripped a sermon for her to listen. She also requested to bring the Chinese Good News Bible home. I pray God will make Himself real to her, and give her the faith and boldness to dispel the irrational thoughts that are threatening to cause her a mental breakdown.
God, you are powerful and you are great. You will work through the lives of this family and make it yours. You will protect them from all evil, harms and dangers. I claim your ownership of this family today. Father, if there were any charms or spells spoken over this family, I pray in the name of Jesus that you will expel these things and destroy them. In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
