As I was reading Char's post, i was thinking of this particular part:
'As you face the problems of life, keep your eyes on your destination, just as Jesus did. Walk close to God and depend onHim. He will not fail you.'
I was thinking of how it feels like to 'keep your (my) eyes on your (my) destination'. I realised that when I do that, when I really REALLY focused all my attention on something. Even when there are distractions, noises etc all around, all I wanted to do is to GET THERE.
Even when there may be stuff blocking my way, I just wanted to move the obstacles away and reach where I want to get.
I think you get what I mean right??!!

Another sharing..
Overcome That Problem You Face
I JOHN 5:4 NIV
4 for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the
victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.
Yes, we do face difficulties in life, but they only give us an
opportunity to trust the Lord and overcome. Without problems we
would have nothing to overcome, and thus not be able to receive
all the blessings promised to those who do overcome.
There are seven promises given to overcomers in the second and
third chapters of Revelation. Here is the last one:
REVELATION 3:21 NIV
21 To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me
on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on
his throne.
As you face the problems of life, keep your eyes on your
destination, just as Jesus did. Walk close to God and depend on
Him. He will not fail you.
I JOHN 4:4 NIV
4 You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them,
because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in
the world.
I am an overcomer in Christ Jesus. The Lord is my
Helper. The One Who is in me is greater than any problem.

Hey guys! I was reading through the forum and the discussions we had over the past years of youth camp 2004 & 2005. WE NEED TO START DISCUSSING TOO.
We need to have this atmosphere that everyone's interested in the camp. Not just the ones planning are involved in their own areas, but EVERYONE INTERESTED IN THIS. We can't be inviting friends and expecting them to come when we ourselves are not interested in it. We can't have people saying 'I won't be going anyway' or people engaged in their own conversations other than our new friends and the camp.
We're losing focus, people. The planning is important; and so are all the times we're together. But, let's focus on getting people to come closer to God k?? Even if we've got the greatest games and conversations going on, nothing actually matters if we don't manage to bring our loved ones closer to the Gospel.
So far, we have Yuan Sheng (Melissa's brother), Cherry (Cheryl's schoolmate) and Xin Hui (Charlene's classmate). Please pray that they would be able to come for the camp (in case they pull out suddenly) and that they would enjoy being with us as much as we enjoy being with them. Most importantly, they would see God in us and thrist to know Him. So, be careful who we show God is k!!
