The moment when i stepped into the Expo hall, i had a flashback of 5 years ago. It was almost the same kinda of environment, however this time round, the crowd was much bigger (Yes, the church had grown tremendously in the past 5 years). In this church, i truly accepted Christ into my life. I was a stubborn person at that time. I thought since i have known Jesus from my kindergarden school, why should I say that prayer again?. Furthermore, I just felt it was an embarassing thing to do, to come to the front (near the stage) where many people would pray for you. Aniway, I did it that day, on Hope Church 10th Annivesarry in March 2001 (because i wanted to remember this day as the day I had the courage to acknowledge Him). If jorry didn't drag me to go to the front 5 years ago, i wouldn't be a Christian like what i am today. <BR/><BR/>Hope of God Church was founded in 1991, with only 5 people attended the first Service, but currently had grown to a size of >2500 people and planted many churches all over the world. I remember, a few years back, there was only about 10 students in the indo caregroup that was leaded by Jorry and his then shepperd Daniel. But now, although most of the friends that i knew had left the caregroup and the church, a few new indo caregroups had formed and grown to a size of almost 30-40 people. The Work of the Lord is amazing. And I thank God for still in the Church despite of many ups and downs. I am still strunggling to grow and to keep my heart firm to commit. I need a lot of prayers....:P<BR/><BR/>This Afternoon celebration was great! (the phraise and worship had touched me alot with the songs. I could really feel peace and going into His presence for at least an hour. What is it like to be in God's presence?. It was like you were brought to a place (very very big, it was an empty place, i couldn't tell whether it was dark or bright, there was only you and a little light. I couldn't feel anymore the loudness or the sounds of people around me. It was a place where my soul would rest, a place where i could sing for God and i knew he would be listening to it. A place where i would have no worry at all, and forget who I am). It is an amazing feeling that you can feel how great and amazing God is, He is the creator of the Universe and everything in it. This life is made by Him, for you to understand His purpose. <BR/><BR/>I had a great time playing with the baloons too~ <BR/>Happy 15th Annivessary Hope Church~~!. Thank you for never abandon me :PAnJuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12651291434384709858noreply@blogger.com
