VBS

VBS is a golden opportunity to serve God and share God's love to younger kids. Not only that, I think i've grew sooo much!

Tomorrow will be the last day of VBS! I'll be missing all the kids but I know that many of them know Christ. Even the non-Christian ones weren't scared to ask questions about the Bible and Bible characters. It's really a humbling and joyful experience!

When serving FOR Christ, God teaches something each time. For the first 4 days of VBS, I've learned to be patient with the kids especially when it comes to accepting Christ. One of my mentor told me that when someone accepts Christ, it isn't just the work of one friend. It's actually the true Christians that the new believer came across. Each person are like steps but the last step is the person to whom the new believer confessed their belief. After that, a new door opens to WONDROUS experiences and encounters with God!!

I've also was reminded to prepare and do everything for the Lord. Not for my recognition, my fame, my friends or family BUT for GOD!! Only HIM!! When I changed my distorted focus, I've felt peace and just the innocent joy in faithfully serving the Lord!!

I feel really blessed!!

“I [Jesus] have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. You will be blessed if you do them.”
John 13:15, 17b

I can proclaim that the verse is true and it's God's word given to each one of us!!
