Service Learning : Saints with a Heart
Today is our college service learning day. Well basically, we have 9 classes .. split in to 2 grps :
A group i/c of housekeeping .and a group i/c of distibuting can-food. Our class was i/c of distributing can foood. WE've like a total of 2 hundred over can food packets to distribute to the residents of Redhill and Telok Blangah. From what i've learnt, the residents are usually very very poor, or old needy unemployed folks in the block.
So the day begin! with sorting and packing of goodie bag from the various boxes of can food which we have packed up and transported to Rani MAs Comunity Centre Earlier. Each goody bag contians 6 different can food + one packet of dry noodle. Well, the can foods are donated by Saints and some teachers from our college. We've found very expensive items like ... abalone and erm ya chicken essence ... a few exp items. One of my frens .. erm haa wrap masking tape around the abalone can food ...

Weekend Connection [ Church Service ]
Haiz .. very disappointed. Joel, marc, me , dawn and shuting. Well we did what we can to invite our class to today's Church service. Wrote cards, prayed, fast, gathered prayer. And still .............. none responded. Well i dunno what to say. I feel really angry. Really fustrated. Really disappointed. But what can i be angry against? What can i do now ? "They reap what they have not laboured. We reap what they have sowed" is the only comforting verse in my mind now. that song was adapted from the college hymn. I jsut hope somethign good come out of all of this. Even in service, i feel so lost. Tat's b'cos i am ushering and i report in late ... actually after the service has started. reason: 'cos i hhave to make a trip to Chua's place to get his leather shoes. Service 3 which i am attending required ushers to wear formally. Haiz ... i feel totally lost thru-out the service and its like i feel like i am not suppose...

Implication of the cartoon below :
Hmmmmm good question qing yingz :) ... after a few micro seconds of thoughts ... this is what i tink it basically says:
There are alot of times where we try to find god, seek him .. or maybe just trying to know if there is such a God that exist, we look everywhere in this world. Or even like the cartoon even to the extent of stars and celestial bodies in Space. Never did we realise that god is so close to everyone of us ... and the paradox is on how he can be soo close to every single one ... every single being .. on Earth. Well don't try to understand that cos basically, our knowledge is limited. What i do understand that is, to find God, look into your life .. your heart .. see how your life has been change over the years after you have an intimate relationship with god. If you don't have that relationship, then i guess you have to learn to start one and see it for yrself.
