Rest Time

Hey, so it's been a few days.

Things have been highly irregular.

With my lab exam Thursday morning I have finished class for second year, this leaves 15 hours of examination ahead before the freedom associated with the summer.

But I have taken this exam break a little too far perhaps. I can't get anything done. lol. And everyone around me seems to have work to do and seems to be attempting to do it.

Yesterday was Good Friday. The day we remember Jesus dying on the cross for us. Our worship service was really good. Very bilingual. Lots of scripture readings. Then I went home and watched anime and did basically nothing all day. >.> I can't rest properly when I know I should be doing something. I'm actually horrible at taking a well defined break. It's either work or procrastination.

Today was similar, however also quite different. It was planned (to a degree). We (me and 15 other people! (That's a lot!!!)) went for sushi. We went to Sushi Kan (which was really good. Excellent service! Jay is the best waiter ever! lol) and sat at two tables that were right beside each other. All my large plans of grandeur fell through the cracks. lol. My friend EK is being baptised tomorrow! But she was at the other table. lol. I was hoping to talk about Easter and how God has changed her life. But it was good. xP. We went on an adventure afterwards and helped morally support NY as he applied for jobs.

Apparently MY knows AG and SK? lol. And he's gonna come to church tomorrow! =D I pray that God would really be revealing great things to him, changing his heart, and impacting him with His love and forgiveness. May he see that it isn't based on your works, but faith that God forgives and justifies. May he see what a church can be, a community of believers that love one another. I pray that we would become that even more, that no one would feel unloved by their brothers and sisters in Christ.

After I got home from the adventure I kinda 'took a break'. lol. I was feeling really tired. I read a couple articles about stuff. lol. About sex and relationships, about putting ministry ahead of family, and about real church community. Then I proceeded to do not much. I was really craving time in the Word, so I read some Psalms, a chapter of Mark and a few chapters of Romans. Really good. xP. I miss it when I get 'busy'. There's really no reason why I couldn't have read it today or yesterday.

So, ya, xP. God does great things and I never wanna stop telling them, but I can't do it on my own. I need rest now and then and more importantly I need to rely on Him as my strength and refuge.

Ttyl.
