B.O.M.G (1)

Was praying in the morning yesterday, lifegroup, myself and BOMG. The more i prayed about my BOMG the more i felt the urgency and need to share the Word again. So i decided to go to Toa Payoh after my lessons. Gotta love Wednesdays because i end school earliest that day. Even though i moved to Punggol my heart is still in Toa Payoh. It's a good place to find youths loitering around void decks and playing basketball and stuff like that. There's 3 neighbourhood schools around the area and that triples the chances of finding somebody around.

Yes so it all started in Toa Payoh park, a good quiet place to pray and seek God's Word. Earlier that day as i was praying on the bus asking if i should go and share the Word today because i felt that i should not be calling the shots, sharing the Word anyhow i like. Just like what He said on Sunday night "go.". I prayed in the park and asked for a message and "Love" came up. I threw 3 bookmarks into my Bible marking all the scriptures i need and off i went.

I went on to the first neighbourhood near First Toa Payoh Secondary School. Nobody around. Second neighbourhood near Beatty Secondary School. Nobody Around. Third neighbourhood near Whitley Secondary. Somebody. It was a group of 3 guys in uniform smoking. Probably due to the long time since i last shared the Word i became hesitant. In the end i walked off giving the excuse that they were from China and might not get the message. I dont know, but i just felt bad about it because afterall, they are still youths and i chose not to speak to them.

Felt like giving up but theres still one more place to go. The place where i shared the Word with a group of secondary school kids before. This time round there were Beatty Secondary school kids there and i saw 2 of my cadets there. I counted at least 12 and so i went to the nearby shop to buy drinks. When i came back they're already packing up and i was like =0. I quickly rushed in to save the remaining ones from going off. So yeap, i started off with the typical question that i like to ask. If you were to meet with an fatal accident today, where would you go? and somehow i always get the same cheeky (yet hopeful) answer everytime. Heaven. But still it's a good question to start off. Then, "Anyone can tell me what love is?". "Sex".

I wasn't surprised tho, all the influences around them just points them to that. I carried on with other questions such as BGRs and parental love. Finally i gave them the definition of love, 1Cor 13:4-8. Then John 3:16 diagram to give them a good idea of who Jesus is and finally Q&A. Usual debates on whether God is real or not and after all that i asked who wanted to accept Christ and 3 raised up their hands. Then "who accepted before but never had a relationship with Him and want to do so?" another 1 hand up. Out of 7, 3 accepted, 1 came back to God, 1 was already a Christian and 2 did not.

Praise the Lord!
