Reflecting on EJ288 retreat

one of the sermons by pastor was about being too focused on small things and loose out on the big picture... i was reflecting on that and i said 'hhm... God, what is it that you are telling me?'

Then we had a sand castle builiding session. It was a lovely time. I was in charge of building the main staircase at the entrance. Do you know that it is not that simple? We took all in all 2hrs to build our castle aka mansion! me and stanley build and rebuild it 5-6 times! finally we got the shape we wanted. wahh...it was arduous to make the entrance beautiful! it not that grand after all... but still proud of it =D

well when I finally stood up and looked at what my whole team was doing...I found so many exciting things that i wasn't even aware my teammates were building! there stood the colloseum, botanic garden and rock walls! and i even forgot how many times some of them have to run to and fro to fetch water for us!

well God is saying, it takes everyone to build His kingdom. if our ears have been open, Jackie Pullinger touched the lives of the drug-addicts, Landa Cope taught us about big picture christian world view... I was awaken from just the small focus on our gals. i wanna see big picture of God's hands moving! am excited for the coming 100K blessings...yes, it takes all of US to see the big beautiful picture. Let's LOOK FAR and ASK BIG! =D
