todae..jere n khalis came to ym to haf a look basically. but i was glad tat dey told me something which i totally agree wif. it had to do wif the worship but not based on the performance. tis morning worship was terrible based on my opinion. the drums had to be softened. for me, i wanna hear the youths' voices instead of the music. some of the youths were not singing. aso, the spirit of worship wasn't there. it's like there is a hole, an emptiness tat needed to be filled. jere told me tat it had to do someting wif the worship leader. in tis case for todae, it will be issac. he may be hidding someting or watever it is holding him back for truly and really worshipping God. even though he said the Holy Spirit is in our presence, i dun feel it, neither do my frenz. the worship leader is important for leading the youths into a time of worship. yes..i agree tat tis involves both parties. the youths muz too haf the heart to worship God. if ck was able to sense tis too, tat true worship was not there. how den will the non-Christians see as? worship is the starting pt in drawing non-Christians in wanting to noe more abt God. dey will see n sense watever tat are happening ard dem. when dey sense the atmosphere of worship n seeing Christians ard him worshipping God freely n wif their hearts, dey wld be curious n frm there, slowly get him to noe abt Christ. if we bring a non-Christian for worship session n he is able to jump for joy, tat's it. the Holy Spirit is indeed in our midst.

let me share someting tat happened during one session of sch-based ministry. usually, we wld start off the time of introduction n sharing before hafing a time of worship. there was tis time when we were hafing worship. everyting when u see is prefectly fine. but in the middle of worship, jere stopped n told us on tat spot tat the feeling of Holy Spirit wasn't there n tat his guit had suddenly went off tune. it was tuned perfectly before worship session started. yesh..i agree. some of us were not worshipping God wif our whole heart. it was useless on continuing on. so we prayed before starting again. tis time round, guit was in tune n the Holy Spirit was indeed present. the Spirit of Worship was there.

i dun haf any hidden agenda through tis story. but wat i am really hoping n praying tat one day, all the youths will worship God wif one voice n wif all their hearts. tat even when a non-Christian enters, he will be able to sense the atmosphere of us worshipping God. tat he may even jump n worship wif the youths in the end.

yeap..basically tat's all i wanna say here. for all of u hu are reading tis, i hope tat u will make tis as one of ur prayer. thx..n take care!!
