CGL Retreat

Went to the CGL's retreat (no, I'm not a CGL...yet? Dunno...) at SG's place for the past two days, had a really good time of learning and fellowship with the CFers from both NTU and NIE too, slept very little last night (attributed to the stone-ness the next morning...not good...) too..

One thing that esp. hit me was the fact that the Bible actually has instructions on choosing leaders too, and probably even organisations too (though we didn't touch much on that). Studied the epistle of Titus, on the qualities a leader should have: summarised to must 1) believe in and preach the gospel (for what it is, in it's context, etc), and not anything else, 2) live the life that shows the implications of the true gospel in one's life, that it itself may be a testimony too and 3) be one who rebukes against false teachings.

The first two, every Christian should have anyway, but the third point...hwah...not even sure whether am up to THAT? As in, don't mind learning abt these things and all that, but being able to (and daring to) point out and correct false teachings like that...dunno whether up to that or not...even as a CGL, no need to say about considering ex-co even?

Played Cranium (the cards without the board) and Pictionary, then truth or dare...fierce ah...but the truth or dare they very friendly one, don't really kill pple one...except for the few who ask really difficult qns? lol...but got to know some of them a bit better lah

Came back home to my mum saying that she wants to quit the job at the student care centre, saying that the workload's too stressful (she now has to cook for 80 over people, meaning she cooks and cleans non-stop from the time she reaches there at 7 am in the morning till 2 or 3 plus, everyday), and it's pretty bad too, cos she's the only one who cooks for them there, meaning that there's no one to take over, or take shifts with her, and that she's also falling sick because of this, but I don't think it's only that reason....think she also has work related problems with some of the staff? And she doesn't know how to resolve them properly...praying for her...
