back to school / Sunday, August 14, 2011
Yesterday at 10.40 AM i officially landed in burlington, vt! and i'm about to embark on a journey of being an RA. Training starts in about hald an hour. (:
i got up this morning at nine to go to church. it was really good to see everyone, marie, monica, shaun, emily, brent, martha and many more! the service was very touching. "it's not about you, but what God is doing for you."
a video was presented with man asking God to chisel him into the original masterpiece that God said he made each of us into. So God starts chiseling away, but stops when the man has something to say back. "chisel talk chisel talk.. control chisel control chisel."
"you're not junk. you're my masterpiece." I could see some tears in not just my own eyes but other people. because part of my does feel like junk. like extra baggage i'm carrying. and it's appeasing knowing that you're not the only one.
before i left daybreak, i picked up a devotional book at their books table. i contemplated for awhile, because i didn't know if that was the only copy. my decision - go through the devotionals and the reflective writing sections, i shall post them here!
till next time. aja aja fighting!
