so i painted my nails yesterday and i name this masterpiece "starry starry night"
in case u are wondering, this is not "chopped" on, it is hand drawn with a brush and paint, so yeah... =)
In the following posts, u'd see many different Thai Christian Youths, probably a few of the 26 we worked with while we were there.
Well, this is what i did in Bangkok...
We conducted various workshops in the first week (drama, singing, crowdbreaker and M.U.S.I.C) during the day and had rehearsals in the evenings where we prepare them for the school tour in the following week. It was my first time doing a drama workshop and that left me sleepless for some nights. However, God grant me strength and wisdom and I was able to use up the 4 hours (with translation of course!) meaningfully! We also joined them (the Thai Youths) when they went out for Street Evangelism. Their enthusiasm to share about our Lord Jesus Christ touched me deeply and made me realize the need for us, even in Singapore to tell people about this Good News! Weekends was no rest for us as we polished up our School Program and practiced an item for Youth Stage on Sunday evening where Christian youths around Bangkok gathers for a time of praise and worship. It was very encouraging to see the students attending and putting in effort in whatever they do. During the first week, I’ve learnt many things about the Thai youths, they were very prayerful and positive. They would always put aside time for prayer everyday, praying for each other, our team and the programs in the following days. They do not discriminate one another and are very easy to work with. This made our stay there very enjoyable and I made many good friends!
The second week came very quickly and we went to 10 schools where we did a short program and invited them for the Evangelistic Concert on Saturday. We are not able to share about Jesus Christ out rightly in some schools but we get the opportunity to talk to the students after the program. Some of the youths managed to share to the students in the schools and some of them received Christ. Praise the Lord! Even though not much students turned up for the concert on Saturday, there was a good number of audience who heard the Gospel through our program.
Through this trip, I could see God’s grace on every one of us on the team. Having lack of sleep and rest (no shopping!), lack of water, eating the wrong food everyday, none of us fell sick or even had a sore throat! I would have easily fell sick on the third day of the trip, but the Lord preserved me and kept us safe and healthy. I am very thankful that he has chosen me to be an instrument for the Gospel and I pray that even back here in Singapore, I would take every opportunity to share this Good News with my friends.
Yeah, this is pretty much what i did, which totally explains my DARK EYE RINGS, but it's all worth it.
