Fighting the Fire at Level 4 : CWBS
Today I’m assigned with my ex-NPCC fella cadet-schoolmate-chorus board team mate to do the overflow for the churchwide bible study. Let’s see huh…We gathered at 6pm to sort out the equipment [btw, me from CHC, so I say equipment, not equipments leh… I’m not from the next hall…. If u have attended today’s bible study u will know what I mean] and set them up. Also checking of the songs and ensure that x-line database is in order. Though we had quite a bit of time, but there are plenty of last minute stuff that we had to contend with…. Esp a dying-hibernating laptop!!!
Argh.. Imagine we happily flashing the sermon, when the laptop decided to do a helicopter on us suddenly by flashing : Preparing to hibernate… Argh!! Wha.. Panic sia. Thank God that after that the break started. Phew!! Getting the adaptor was a sure thing that we need, because the battery’s simply not responding!! Well.. because of that, we didn’t really have ample time to check out the sermon for the next half of the bible study, in which, we really go by faith. Somemore no outline leh. Only slide numbers. Imagine have to fight fire all the way from break till end of the bible study.
But well, as our I/C says, today’s a bit not so good, but we learn from it lah. I felt that I learnt something from it… I can actually handle it quite well, though it was last minute. All thanks to my ‘training ground’ during the various zone meetings. It all came into handy. See! Never despise setbacks. It’s an avenue to learn. =)
Chorus Board Annual meeting??
It was so-called an annual meeting, I guess. Because it’s a first time for me lah.. Having such a big gathering. And the biggest one so far. Yeah. The place was at this Ah Hood Road… I dunno where it is, only know Toa Payoh Mrt. Haha.. I’m quite suaku when I come to north side.
The place was at a police club I think. Until now I still can’t remember how to go. But well, the moment we arrived, we were seated down to take a shot. Heard from Jasmine that it’s probably be the photo for our ministry passes at Expo. Oooh… and I met someone familiar. Shirley!! Hmmm… I have found her familiar too, and it struck me that she worked in H******** P****** [Oh.. that stupid place] She has left the company too.. Jasmine’s work consist of supporting its products. By the sound of it, she doesn’t like the place either.
I tell u… the Products are ok.. only the PEOPLE there suck!
Back to what I wanna say. Hmmm.. most of the BIG shots of Chorus Board are there, which I have seen before. And Bro Kenny talked to us about the plans that we have, when we go to EXPO. It was really exciting. The ministry is totally being restructured, and that he made every different part of the ministry sound soooo exciting.
For me, I’m gonna serve in 2 aspects of the chorus board
1) Service team – I’ll serve during one of the services. [Hope it’s on Sundays]
2) Training – Be under Bro Jianxiong because he’s the one who trains people to serve for sideboard, mainboard etc [Wha.. my first instinct was like ‘Wha!’ I guess I’m there because I have experience… Teaching. Hahaha]
It’s great, because this means that I get to serve more in the ministry. Indeed there’s a breakthrough! =) The sad thing is that I’ll no longer be under my current I/C.. On close look there’s only me and another member that’s getting out of the team…. I can handle changes well… I think =)
It’s been great in the past year that I’ve been in the team. And I’ll do my utmost best to serve together with my new team I/C from December onwards, at Singapore EXPO.
SICK
Monday marks the official day that I’m jobless!! Argh!!! So what did I do? I snored and pigged in bed lor. And my throat hurted…. Checked at least like 5 times in the morning to see if I got fever or not… NO fever!
And I took an afternoon nap… So shiok sia.. But regretted the moment I woke up. Wha.. my throat hurts BIG TIME.. and I felt dizzy… All because the stupid time of the month again. My voice became totally hoarsed. Went to the doctor, whom I only saw for a brief 3 min. Ok lor. Now better liao. Though I feel quite tired.
And for the x time!! Don’t give me antibiotics that need me to eat 3 times a day!! Argh… Since Monday till now, I should have finish all my antibiotics. But well *sheepishly* I still have at least 1 day worth of antibiotic left.. because I slept too much so didn’t really eat a lot too.. In case u are wondering, NO I didn’t lose any weight. [wish I did though]
SERVICE BREAKTHROUGH
For the 1st time in many months, I’m being assignment to service 5 and 6. Wha! And it was the first time I did praise. Thank God that I did quite well for worship, that my I/C trusted me with service 6 praise and worship. There was a breakthrough. I’m moving on lah =)
You know ah… I came up on mainboard for about 4 weeks of ministry liao, but still like not here not there. A bit sad lah. I remembered as with Sideboard, I did about 4 weeks of worship before I started on Praise. How come the system is much easier, but it takes more time for me to master it? Was quite sad about it, but yeah, breakthrough!
Was totally intrigued by Pst Robb… I wanna get his book ‘Excellence in the workplace’ When he introduced that book, I felt that I gotta get that book. So that when I read the book, I will be able to penetrate the marketplace while shining for Christ!!
GUITAR CLASS
Before I forgot… I played ‘Salvation is here’. Hmmm generally Guitar Teacher (GT) says that I used amply of expression tools, which is good.. But…. Sad huh.. there’s a BUT….. I don’t have dynamics!! Urgh!!! I know lah… Hands too tired to do anything lah. I wish I can play with more dynamics, but my hand is so tired that it’s gonna break!!! Haiz.. wish I didn’t make that mistake 7 years ago, by hopp-ing the stupid wooden rod.. and injured the joints near my thumb. I always have problem with 16 beat! Because of that mistake. =(
