Sunday was Good :)
We were late for church, and got a tardy (3 tardies = 1 absence) and you can only get 16 absences during BSSM. But, overlooking that... Sunday was good. Bill spoke on how to renew your mind by thinking in terms of Heavenly principles (logic) instead of earthly logic... like give to receive, die to live, go low to go high.
I figured that we need to follow Heaven's logic... give away money if you need money... but that you also need to have faith... not for money... but faith in Heaven's provision. This is huge... That you actions should all contain faith... in the unseen... in Heaven... believing that Heaven will respond to your words and actions, as you do or say something.
The evening service was also along these lines, where Kris (right spelling) spoke on how we have to do SIMPLE acts, and have faith in God to do the supernatural... Hebrews 11 shows how people did simple things... like receiving strangers into their home... or hide a baby... and that was a major act of faith...
So we do the simple, and our faith is in Heaven to do the Super :)
O, and the Sunday service was great itself.. we had spontaneous worship as a crowd, and we prayed for sick people, and many people were healed... From new cartridge in their bones, to healings of head injuries... total healing all around... and my back also got fixed :) its been getting uncomfortable... and i wanted to go up for prayer... but it was not serious... but in the service God healed it, without anyone praying for it :)
So i'm looking forward to that :)
O, and we had Chinese food at Panda express.. well... i learn the hard way... Chow mein is super spice... mmm... like really... i was almost dying :) but anyway... and I tried to ask for water... but an Afrikaner trying to speak English to a Chinese that is trying to understand English somehow makes communication hard... next time i will call someone to help me...
And then a poor guys came t us to ask for $36... the poor here are not really poor... but hey... they still need food... even though they may pass as middle class in SA... observation: it is so weird to see how a group of people respond to a poor person... suddenly everyone goes quiet... and then everyone becomes super spiritual... i don't like that... well... maybe its just me...
A girl gave the poor guy $5, and her bible, and tried to share the Sunday's message with him... God help us... we don't have a clue what is going on... well she tried... And then another guy stand up and loudly sings over the guy... in public... mmm... i'm not saying that God does not move through song.. but maybe it was not appropriate... i don't know... God help us again... Then another guy tried to go draw money, but could not... and there was awkward conversation... more of God's help needed here... and then another guy gave the guy $40, and prayed over him... well the money spoke the most to the guy... and then there was this awkwardness as we tried to say goodbye to each other... it was as if the poor guy became the king of the group... and all of us turned into priests... well, again i don't know...
Well... the end of it all is that i heard that the guy that gave the $40 got a check of $200 when he got back home... he claimed that God said he should give the $40. He himself is unemployed, and needs cash... but that was what the preach was on... so... what do i get from this whole saga ? :D well... 1. don't act like a priest in public, and 2. ask God what He wants you to do... and ONLY do that :)
During all this I asked God what I should do, and I think He said I should wait, and see... and that I will see a testimony come from this... so i waited, and saw the testimony...
Memo to self in the future... ask God what to do... more often than you think is necessary...
There is only one way to test to find out if you heard from God... and to train to hear Him better... and that is to listen for His voice, and act upon it... and then test the outcome... the proof will be in the fruit.
God help us all.
P.S. My previous posts miss spelled Kris Vallotton... as Chris... soz.
