Thursday, June 19, 2008 ~ ROD & beyond SO it ends. 2 Years of NS and in a simple stroke I'm no longer a citizen of the country that I SPENT 2 YEARS OF MY LIFE DEFENDING. Ironic no? That at the end, we never get a Thank you or anything, just nothing.. nothing at all.. But that part is over.. I'm glad for the memories and the good times & learning points. :)The 1st act of my new found freedom was to go to malaysia for church camp! That was really a blast! A bit disappointed not to have gotten the exact word I was seeking but I did manage to get a touch & impact many people which more than makes up for it i guess? But I'm still seeking.. still waiting & anticipating! Now there's so much to do, so much left to be done. Both in cell & my own personal life.. 2 major decisions ahead, one choice affects the other.. At camp I got a clear word that I was leaving Singapore but not for good.. a new season for me.. but so far it seems abit cloudy. Everything seems to be in cruise control, with God at the reins and I'm just the passenger.. and hopefully by this week I'll know my confirmation for UW.. of which if I do get, would be a very direct sign that my time here FOR NOW ATLEAST is up & it's time for new season. Funny that I'm going to the US at the time that everyone else is not going there due to economic or political reasons? Things happen for a reason.. they always do.. but what is the reason for this happening? That something so right can be at such a wrong timing? I often tell my youths this, that even the right thing @ the wrong timing is still a no go.. and now I have to face it myself.. how? The only way out is to trust God & remember his promise that he has a better future install for us. We always try to make the whole picture fit and "guess" what God's doing.. but recently I'm reminded that it's not our job to make the whole picture come together! All that we need to do is to do OUR PART of the puzzle and let God deal with how they will all fit together! So ROD & Beyond looks exciting but scary. Good bye SAF & my fellow brothers-in-arms that are still under arms or going to be under arms. All the best & I'LL BE BACK TO SEE U ALL! ONWARD!
