It just dawned upon me that I cannot attend the Local Church Executive Committee (LCEC)meeting this coming Saturday as I will be coordinating a wedding for two friends which was planned last June.
I am in a fix now as I have a major presentation to make at the leaders' meeting. This is regarding the revised Missions Policy that some leaders and I have been looking into for the past three months.
The meeting starts at 8am and I have to be at the couple's place at 10am. If the LCEC chairperson allows me to present the revised Policy at the earlier segment then I will be able to attend. I pray everything will turn out well eventually.
I am waiting now for a member of the Missions Policy Review Committee to submit to me the final draft so that I can begin to disseminate it to the rest of the LCEC leaders - hopefully by Tuesday.
Even as I write this blog now, my heart is rather troubled and burdened. This new week will be a very busy one for me as I have a lot of backlog of work in office to deal with since I have just completed my reservist. On top of that I have to attend two rehearsals (Monday and Wednesday) for the other wedding that I am coordinating on 23 February. I also need to meet my Accountability Group which we have not met for more than a month already. The problem is I am only free on Tuesday. One group member may not be able to make it if we hold the meeting on Valentine's Day, which is on Thursday - he is currently the only one attached and the rest of us do not want to deprieve him of spending time with his girlfriend. On Friday I cannot because of some final preparations for Saturday's wedding that I need to attend to.
Just the look of the above paragraph scares me. I cannot skip any of them as I am the key person involved.
After this I shall seek the Lord to lead and guide me. I also pray He will make a way for me and that at the end of it all, everything will flow smoothly.
Today has been a hectic day for me. I was in church early in the morning to meet the Youth Ministry Mentors (YMMs) for a time of prayer; then I attended the Youth Ministry (YM) meeting for a while; after that I had to do some final amendments to the details of a wedding briefing that I needed to conduct after lunch; after the briefing, it was off to town to buy some wedding items for this Saturday's wedding and then I had to meet the couple to sort out some details which required immediate attention and action.
When all the above-mentioned were dealt with, it was already around 5:30pm. I met three siblings-in-Christ for a birthday celebration for two of them. We went to P.S. Cafe in Dempsey Road for dinner and then to the Ben & Jerry outlet for dessert. Well, I am thankful to have known my siblings-in-Christ better. I also give thanks to God that the two birthday girls enjoyed themselves. I am quite amused by how the two sisters-in-Christ are so into photography. They took so many pictures! Haha.
Anyway, we went home early as we were all quite tired.
It is amazing how I pulled through this day. Praise the Lord for His sustenance.
Well, time for me to stop here as I need to submit to God the anxieties of my heart.
Good night, every one and have a blessed week ahead! :)
