New Life

Hey.

I havn't blogged in a couple days. Stuff happens. I had quite a bit of work this week. Also, I had meetings about next weeks VBS in Brooklyn. Wow... less than a week left. And my laptops's internet gets mad at me for no reason sometimes. and my cellphone was in CW's car last night.

So, ya. A brief update:

1. We all sang "As The Deer" in Bakery. It was very unexpected.
2. Bats aren't that scary... It's not an ax murderer or anything.
3. September 12th is one month away.
4. "Are they Po'..?"
...
"What..?"
"Are they Po'?"
...
"What..? Are they Poor..?"
"Ya. Are they Po'?"
5. I very much dislike wearing shorts.
6. Seriuosly my absolute favourite thing that I have ever done and hope to do again often is seriously to sing with a crowd at a worship concert. Especially if the person beside me is good at singing, so we can sing in harmony.
7. Mysterious Mushrooms!
8. Charmander FTW.
9. H-E-R-O, God is my Hero!!!!!

I probably missed a lot, but that is a vague summary of some random events that happened these last couple days.

So, ya. #3. September is the date for our OCBC church picnic. That day there will be a baptism service. Hopefully, I will participate. That is to say. I will be baptised. My first assignment is to write a summary (half page max) of what I understand the gospel to be.

I will be writing it here. =D

In the beggining there was God. He created the world. The universe. Plants, animals and finally He created humans in His pure and holy image so that we may have a relationship with Him and watch over creation. Since then we have all sinned and turned away from God and that sin was passed down from generation to generation. God loved the world, but our sin kept us from having a relationship with Him because he is holy and we were not, so he sent his only begotten son, Jesus. Jesus lived around 33 years and although he was tempted in every way that we have been, he never fell to sin and temptation; he went through everything a human would, but was God. The punishment for sin is death. We deserved death and judgement for our sins. Even though he was sinless, he died on the cross and payed the price for our sins. He removed our sin, past present and future, the sins of the whole world for all time and gave us his righteousness. His blood has washed away our sins and made us perfect in His sight that we may have a relationship with God. Jesus was ressurected on the third day after his crucifiction and showed himself to hundreds of witnesses. Jesus has victory over death and sin and with him we also share in this victory and will share eternal life with him in heaven. Until then God has given us the Holy Spirit within us to help us grow into His likeness. Drawing from the power he has given us, relying on it everyday, turning away from sin and professing Jesus as Lord over our lives we can be born again with new life.

That was probably too much..? Probably adding a bit at the beggining and the end that isn't 'the gospel', but it's all important, right?

So, ya. I've really felt I should tell K(?) that I'm getting baptised.

Anyways.

Ttyl.

These are two songs I've been hearing on the radio.





"Hey AL. It seems that 'daily' is a bit too hard, eh? I mean you only get a somewhat 'monthly' report from RL. >.> xP I don't have a girlfriend."
