Back from cell retreat at Muar

Came back from cell retreat at Muar. Reached there on friday with Boon Bing and Clarence. Alvin (my spiritual dad), Aaron, Zhengrong and Hubert (who is supposed to follow them) reached there at night. Well, waiting for them, we spent the time writing and composing a praise song for God. Yeah!! God's driven song!!

Even though this year cell retreat at Muar is shorter than last year retreat at Muar (again??), I felt that the presence of God is equally strong. Well, we read and meditated on John chapter 13-17 and 1 John chapter 1-5. The 2nd day, we fasted lunch and prayed for the miracle catch this coming sun. And the afternoon prayer was super good. I remembered Alvin say that he is here to serve us (my cell) and I was really touched by it. Just like in John 13, Jesus washed His disciples' feet, Alvin (our spiritual dad) washed our feet and blessed us and truely, I really see Jesus and God in him.

Well, God spoke to me during this Muar trip. In 1 John 4:7-8, God talk about loving others. Guess last time, I did not love others as much as I should and now God told me to love others for God is love. Amen!

We ended our retreat with dinner at a chinese place and we ate crabs!!! Super nice meal and super cheap. We had bah kut teh the next morning before rushing back to Singapore for service at Expo. And thanks God we made it on time for service even though we took a bus back to Singapore. :)
