YM

pre youth prayer last saturday was awesome!!!
there really was unity of spirit, all of us prayed something about hearts. i was reminded of a sermon that was about a heart that had alot of muck and goo on it, and was representative of bitterness that had built up over time, and prevented the heart from receiving.

but before i could pray that, almost everyone prayed about heart conditions hahaha. i was wondering if it was because i was specifically hearing for hearts, but when i asked robin and evan later, they both agreed that they too felt led to pray for hearts. awesome man!

which also kind of brings me to something that i find very odd in myself, i think i'm too much of an achiever, somehow i view prayer-out-loud as a race to pray the coolest and most soul searching prayer. maybe thats a reason for wanting so many spiritual gifts too. i wonder. but i do know in my head that its not a competition to pray the most pharisical prayer, but somehow i just get led in that direction.

originally, robin wanted to do a sharing-prayer thing, but betty decided against it (i still am quite... disturbed about it). but i do see that God worked out what he wanted, darryl shared with me that God was leading him in a prayer-worship thing; so even though robin didnt go ahead with the prayer bit, it was transacted through darryl. and i felt God was very present during worship. i loved it :D been a while since i knelt down in worship. i pity the adults though, the seating in church is so not conducive for free worship.

kingdom assignment! i (along with 11 others) received a hundred bucks from betty, to do this kingdom assignment thing. which was... 100 bucks from God, spend it on his purposes and see what happens! hopefully it'll snowball. anyway it was very cool cos i was thinking of doing this for street evangelism before betty did it.
we're going to do street evangelism on the 11th, and there would be some people that wouldnt feel comfortable sharing the gospel, so one other option for them (i was led to think) was to give them some money and have them find some way to bless the community. i was thinking give out coke! (after seeing the servant evangelism video on youtube, which was INSPIRING)

in any case, i have a hundred bucks sitting on my desk and i dont know what to do with it. but i'm sure God'll open doors. i think it was ron that said to invest the money that you have excess of; if you win 4d, keep some for yourself and invest the rest, if you lose the money its ok, because you're not bankrupt :)
