Sitting at Coffee Bean, Plaza by the Park after Youth Ministry's Sec 1 - 3 Camp, sipping on my extreme, Black Forrest. Unsatisfied, I believe that Coffee Bean's standard has dropped drastically. My ice blended has been left in the blender for too long such that it feels too watery. The chocolate covered coffee beans are too chunky, and there are too little cherry and chocolate bits. Sigh... Coffee bean, my first coffee love. Alas, you have lost the beauty of your youth. I taste and see, but you are no longer good... I can't deny it any longer, but Starbucks has stole my heart away from you...
I spent the last 4 days at YM's Sec 1 - 3 Camp, and I'm exhausted. Katish... The camp was another beautiful handiwork of God, spectacular. For me, God's recurring message for this camp was Love. The camp's theme verse was Matthew 22: 37 - 38. Jesus said:" Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. I could feel God's love during this camp, and I believe that God was telling the leaders that in order to teach our youths how to Love, we need to show it to them by loving God first, loving each other, and loving the youths. Loving them by being servant leaders, taking care of them, and thinking of them first. Awesome camp. I got to interact with the younger leaders and youths, something that I really need to do since I've been quite out of touch with the youths for the longest of time.
I learnt a new acronym. TLC - Tender Loving Care.
I drove the church van, it's manual, and it's huge. I felt like formula one again. Vroomm...
