Back from Alpha camp!! The camp is really a great success!! Thank God for that and thank God for Alpha com as well, all the sweat n toil poured in by the com!

Think went to the camp with a heavy heart.. just don't feel right going,a bit discouraged and worried by the results obtained for my project,a bit of guilt too, seeing that after wrking for two months, did not really obtain much results in lab n keep going for camps...think also feeling some fatigue which accumulated over this period..

Then during camp, got stung by a bee on my leg.. initial thought is oh my.. what is happening? why must it particularly land on me and sting me? God, are You kidding me, I already don't feel very good about going for the camp le, this feeling has to be intensified by the pain of the sting..

My heart was really weary,doubtful, questioning then.. but despite my joyless spirit, i thank God for His grace that He had shown me..Looking back, can see His way of encouraging me, His way of telling me that He cares for me..

1 thing is that during alpha, dunno how,our group manage to be the top-scorer which really turned out to be quite a shock for all of us , cos our group is made up of people who are not very 'ra-ra' by nature.. always the quieter one.. not very competitive I'll say.. ha but seeing that we score so well helped boost the morale of the group, gelling the group.. was telling jia, reminded me of orientation last year.. ,memories of what we went thru tog relying on God.. =P

Besides that, what is even more joyous and encouraging is to see 2 new bros n 1 new sis in our big family!! =) Praise the Lord!!Personally know the new sister and was there when she decided to take a step of faith.. because know what she is going thru in her life now, therefore it is especially encouraging and touched to see her take this step of faith. Pray that she will experience God's love for her more n more in her new found journey with God! =)

Though went with a troubled heart.. but came back with a renewed assurance from God that He will see me through all seasons!

'By the waters still my soul, my heart will trust in You, my heart will trust in You! '
