People of the Times

I've been quite a punk. I must admit. Last night was my first time attending Ps Yeo's preaching sessions on Israel. So, that makes my attendance record a whooping 25%. Woot. Not great, but better than 100% absent. And, sadly, i was really late too. An entire hour late, in fact. I had to rush there from another meeting.

Ps Yeo touched on Daniel 9:24 - 27 - Knowing and understanding the times of Israel. Knowing about Israel is really revelation. Its definitely not beginner stuff - in fact, understanding Israel would mean that we understand God's time and season for earth and his return. Israel acts as God's timeclock for his sooncoming return.

I've had a pretty busy week. I've been appointed as team leader for my community service project group - that means, i'm in-charge of planning and executing CIP hours for 24 other people. The whole week has been spent on running up and down sorting these things out. I would really like to help out LCSS (Life Community Social Services), but i'm not too sure about the other team members. There's gotta be consensus for these kind of things to work. Do pray that God would move their hearts even though not all the team members are believers. And in the process, i'm praying for their salvation as well in the midst of their interaction with LCSS....

This week, i also learnt that NIE is quite a Christian-friendly place. I actually saw people reading the bibles, doing bible study and praying in the open spaces of the school. It was awesome. There are also a number of Christian clubs on campus and they seem to invite a number of prolific speakers. And, many lecturers are actually believers too! I already know that two of my lecturers are believers.

Will post more later.

Take care and stay safe
