I had a really good weekend but
God, please give me the strength to persevere.
:(
I am sick and tired of my essay
and I am really about to give up.
It's so far past the deadline that I find it easier to not complete it altogether than to work against myself.
Doesn't help as well that I am so, so tired by the week + weekend in general.
Sigh.
I want to worship Him with my work, but I've already failed
and I'm starting to see less and less reason to persevere in this particular instance...
---
UCCF NLT was UH-MAZ-INGG.
I was particularly struck by the worship.
I loved that many of the songs were traditional hymns
but you wouldn't realise it if you didn't already know
because of the music arrangement. :P
I think the dude (Lewis) did an awesome job.
It's the perfect marriage of traditional and contemporary worship music,
something many churches have differences over.
I think he really proved, to me at least, that it's possible to have both
and still worship God
and enjoy our worship ourselves.
That's really something to think about huh.
Other than that,
I was also very much challenged in many many ways.
Too many that I can't even grasp it properly myself.
Nothing concrete that I can place my finger on, but I feel God exciting/intimidating/nudging me.
I definitely need to find time to debrief and reflect on the weekend's training.
Oh, and I also loved that the training was saturated with prayer time!
PRAYER TIME, YAY! We even had designated prayer groups! :)
They allocated time for us to pray after each section of the programme --
to pray about what we've learnt as a response.
In fact, very often, I left wanting to pray more, wishing that we had even more time to pray.
I thoroughly enjoyed it; I love praying even more now!

Right, I'd better head back to my essay.
Sigh.
