First DARE/Arrow meeting for me in more than a month! YAY!!!!Today was quite fun. Most of us could attend DARE, including Mindy and Siying (whose parents sometimes place restrictions). Met at McDonald's where there were so many people in the group (almost everyone brought friends) that we needed two tables. This would not be unusual unless the 1st table could already seat roughly 8 people, which it could. Why do we attend DARE despite having graduated from it? Ans: JUMPING!!!!Arrow people are a nice bunch, but almost every1 there show a reluctance to let loose during Praise and Worship. No screaming, no jumping, not much physical expression of the love we have for Jesus. Kinda like main service. But I guess every1 worships in different ways. Anyway. In DARE almost every1 DOES jump! So we go there to experience an environment where we aren't the only ons jumping. Lol.We had to leave after Arrow Praise and Worship because Siying was bringing us to a concert. It was held in a garage and was a celebration of the true Love, Jesus Christ! To be honest the first part before dinner was not very interesting. Just some live performances of secular songs and a short skit. Dinner was from Botak Jones, if you havn't eaten there before, GO ASAP! Lol. The video and sermon after dinner was excellent though. The video was so touching, about 5 missionaries sacrificing themselves to bring Jesus to the Auca Tribe in Ecuador. A perfect picture of what Jesus did for you and me, IMO. We are just like the Auca people, lost, without God and hurting. The missionaries represent Jesus, who came to love us and pay the ultimate price even though He knew we were unable to love Him back as perfectly. I nearly cried :)Long train ride back after that from Aljunied. But its aaaall riiight, now, in fact it's a gas! Yea its aaaall riight, Jumpin' Jack Flash It's a gas, gas, gas!*All in all a very fun day touched by God. Lets meet up more often, DG! :D God bless!*First person to get that reference and post the anwer on my tagboard wins a cookie. Yay!
Abba, You love me.
