18 - 20 of Nov... my mom's CG retreat. afternoon, Mr Davis came and picked up my mom and I and we headed for Ipoh. 2 hours ride. Mr Davis driving, His wife, auntie Kristy beside him, another passenger was Magdelene, which is auntie Kristy's younger sister. reached there, greeted by the... Leong Family... haha which is Uncle Jeremy, auntie Lilian, Christina, and Calvin. Uncle auntie... dunno how old... Christina is form 3... 14 i think, and lil Calvin is 9 years old, so its quite an odd group to go out together with, but its cool. First night was CG night, as they were supposedly praying. I totally did not feel like praying cos the whole atmosphere was not pleasant for prayer at all. So after indicating to Mr Davis, which is the cell leader, I spoke to everybody to simply really pray, and said that there was no spirit of prayer. after that, we continued praying... it was a little better, but still not as err....what word should I use... "powerful?" later on was CG time. so the men shared to the men, women with women. since CG time is actually quite personal, I shouldn't leak anything about the contents. anyway, after that, everybody execpt Mag and I went for supper. My stomach wasn;t in the best condition. that was the lesser reason, the greater reason is because I think I simply need to pray and not just come and play. So I prayed, then before I slept, I sms-ed Chris to tell her to wake me up cos I wanna talk 2 her n pray for certain stuff... but becos she found me asleep like 1 am.... so I slept until morning... =.= morning, woke up... grabbed song book, started singing... praying... then my mom woke up, so I invited her to come along and sing also.. so both of us sang together... then it was almost 8... more and more people woke up already, and a few of us were singing...suddenly I felt some static on my nose... so I tied to brush it away. then my face started tingling... then my teeth started tingling.. then my whole body was practically vibrating with those static forces. I read about some people having maybe 220 volts in the body flowing when they get baptised in the Holy Ghost, well... mine was probably much less...maybe 50 volts? anyway, it is not like I knew how 50 volts feels like.. but suddenly my whole body was quite numb, I cant move my fingers and mouth freely. I lips and tongue were vibrating.... I spoke very very very little tongues....( it is gonna take sometime to explain tongue ) maybe spoke like few seconds? no loud praising.... but thenI was starting to smile so widely because this is the first time I experienced such a thing. I quickly got into my room and started praying and thanking God in English.... the whole incident was around 15 minutes... I think I had received the baptism of the Holy Ghost! It is a little less dramatic than those big time evangelists, but as far as I have seen in my life ( the people I know ) it is dramatic enough = ) then the rest of the day was eating and climbing the..." shen qi shan", a mountain... Saw Chris' grandad, he is one cool fella. 92 years old... still strong young man anyway, quite a lot of time was spent travelling around, so I was in the car most of the time. And it was really cool? cos I get to talk, to Christina and Calvin... the... veterans...I don't really talk much too.. I think if Christin and Calvin didn't go, I would probably be praying like... most of the time already hahaha.... anyway, Calvin is a really cute kid, but like every other younger brother... or most younger brothers in Malaysia, younger brothers and elder sisters dont go together. know why, cos guys are supposed to take care of girls n girls support guys. The other way round just causes a little more conflict? or u better need some good comunication skills to overcome those stuff. anyway, I figured out that Chris is probably the only person that would both understand and listen to me talk so much (compared to adults, and 9 year old Calvin has proly no idea what I'm talking about ) So I started sharin abt recent stuff that God revealed to me, through experience, through friends, through other people like evangelists of the old. and I tell you, when she listens, she just listens, and this is like cool. She doesn;t suddenly interrupt and ask some irelevant things. but as I talk to he, I see her.... like dunno got responce also anot =P cos by part she is like concentrating, but I wonder... I talk so much, why she has no questions pulak... anyway, highlight of the whole trip is the baptism of the Holy Ghost la but I was also quite happy as I was in Ipoh I managed to share to 2 very poor people about Jesus Christ. It is totally the grace of God... I also don't know how... but this I think... if anybody want to hear, I really have a lot of things to say? its not like Im dying for attention, cos I don;t even care about it? but I see that many many people my age, live in some sort of confusion... endless ones... going round and round, and find nothing and get despaired in life. actually, there is too much to write about these 3 days there are things I thought about God, about people... and things I told to Chris n Calvin that made me think a lot too ( how much they think about it I don't know... but I was wondering if I came too hard on them ) in the end, I did not manage to lay my hands anybody except Mr Davis and Uncle Jeremy to pray ( because of CG ) hmm, I look forward to much much more things... but there is this wierd feeling in my heart... it is quiet, it is tired. I think I might be a little distracted in some areas during the trip.... I shall go and pray.... I don;t wanna lose my focus.... thank U God so much... for all the stuff... and also for You Yourself that paid the price I couldn't pay... Keep me close to Ur heart.... thanks In Jesus name~ Amen
