With much delight, we sang alot during the service which was marvellous because I enjoyed praising and worshipping to GOD with the congregration. Pastor Kong made a calling to the altar. For those who have backslided (he even gave an example for a duration of two years) and I reckoned it was me. Without a tinge of hestitation, I just walked towards the altar. (read: my churchmate was telling me that I walked so fast that she couldn't catch up with me). Anyway, the whole congregation sang and prayed with Pastor Kong leading us.
Uncontrollably, tears trickled down my cheeks. God really touches my heart this time. I just feel the strong urge to make that one step to let GOD knows that I want to come back to him. Even when Aka asked me why am I so emotional, I couldn't really put my feelings into words. Alot of unhappy things have happened to me during my pursue of my degree. Those two years were also some of my toughest and saddest milestone in my life. I just want to move on without these sad memories and only GOD can help me overcome this and heal me of the hurting wounds and scars and to fill these gaps with HIS love and understanding.
These are trials in my life and I believed that GOD never set a trial for us to fail but rather to make us stronger. With GOD in my life, I will prosper for His grace is abundant and blessings bountiful. He will make me a stronger character to go through everything in my life from now on. For He can turn mourning into dancing and everything into a spring of joy.
"Blessed are those whose strength is in you,
As they passed through the Valley of Baca,
they make it a place of springs,
the autumn rains also cover it with pools.
They go from strength to strength,
till each appears before GOD in zion."
Psalm 84:5-7
