Crashing Desire
Monday, July 13, 2009 x 2:58 PM
That day, I ran away from SPY because I had enough of terrorists wanting my life. Haha, nah, kidding.
My friend, Jasmine and her boyfriend, Elbon have joined my church and they were checking out the CG. So I cleverly promoted Desire to them. After that, it would be befitting for them to go there rather than join me in SPY.
It was my first time crashing Desire. Usually, I would collaborate with them for MIMBY, or join them for their outings, better still, plan outings for them, but never once have I attended a session with them.
Honestly, I enjoyed myself thoroughly perhaps because it was a refreshing change being able to share with people around my age, laugh with them especially when Choon Kiat was sharing his answer, and even studying God’s word was more independent, less spoon-feeding, more in depth discovering of God’s truth in our small little groups with everybody contributing along and co-facilitating… Dinner topics ranged from food to name cards to promotion card to driving…. It was all very fun!!!! :)
Even though I have attended quite a number of sessions on prayer, I was still very amazed that my insights on prayer have once again been expanded. Especially this year, how prayer have been emphasized time and time and again be it by friends, cg, yss… and I realized that most of us wanted an ideal prayer life, one that did not focus on self per say, but to the people around us, known and unknown. For each of us to have an ideal in mind, it reflects a need for us to work on this area. I will try…
Sarah reckons that it’s because I was responsibility free that’s why I enjoyed myself. Partly true I guess. But the group dynamics, the whole new age group was a refreshing change in itself that I enjoyed a lot.
So I shamelessly told Gwen and Declan that I will find means and ways to crash Desire whenever possible. AND YOU KNOW WHAT? I think I’ve found my trump card. ☺
