BBK-RJBC Camp 2010

Just had church camp over the past weekend. It was an awesome camp!! filled with: God’s presence. Good fellowship. Delicious food. Nice chilly weather. Good ping pong session.  Cold and hot showers. Laughters.

Camp was held over at Chefoo in Cameron Highlands. Nice and relaxing place. Away from city life. Away from super hot weather. Definitely an awesome choice of place for camp! It was a 4 days 3 nights camp.

What did I do there? Praise God. Worship God. Studying the Word of God. Knowing God better. Knowing God’s people better. Fellowshipped with fellow campers. Makan-ed. Prayed. Games. Activities. Ping pong. Basketball. Badminton. Guitar-ed. Had fun. Had more fun. Had more more fun! haha…

The theme for the camp is “Live by faith not by sight”. I really learnt a lot from this camp! The Word came at the right time as well. Am really going through challenging times! Something really really big. Something beyond what I think I can comprehend. But I do believe that He won’t give me something that I couldn’t handle. And also that He will watch over me, teach me, and guide me through this situation I’m in.

The camp really do teach me to submit more to God. And to rely more on Him. Not just to rely, but to seek Him first in all things! These words are surely easier said than done. Often we only really seek Him when we arrive at a very dead end after trying our ways. Definitely had first hand experience of life application of the Word in the camp. Mind was really troubled by some things during camp. It’s really easy to say submit all of it to God. But it’s really hard to actually do it yourself. Believe me. At least it was true for my first time. But managed to submit in the end. Hope I really learnt from this and it would be easier in the future. A lot of times before this, words remains just words. Hate to say it. But its very true of a statement for me. This is one of the times where i really put into practice something that i learn.

Really felt closer to Him after the camp. Maybe I’ve been a lil stagnant for a lil too long. And it was surely refreshing to be back on track. hehe.. Thank You. Surely it has been a great camp. Seeing and meeting so many people who have passion and enthusiasm for God. It really helps to encourage each other in our walk with God.

Am really amazed with the team I was leading. Yup, I was leading a team! I was being suggested to be team leader. Something I’ve not really done before. Have no idea at all what I’ll be going through or how am I gonna do it. Just thought might be a door opened for me to grow. So yup accepted it. And I can say I really did learn a lot on how to be a leader! Found out so many things that I should do as a leader. Was really a pure naive thinking accepting to be leader when i don’t know much. But am glad I made that decision. Really opened my eyes to many areas that I would have missed.

Had a picture with my teammates. Really great people they are. Leader from RJBC. Doctor. And there is a public figure as well in my group. How awesome is that!! And their humbleness and their knowledge of the Word of God just amazed me! Really great to know them and have a shared experience with them although it was just for a few days long.

My team: Heart of Christ (we got 2nd place! woohooo!)

Another thing I realized is that, it is so easy for one to lose sight of the real joy around when your heart is so into winning an event. Really do think that enjoying the bond together and work with each other is far more important than to win the event. Only realised it after. Shall be mindful of it the next time.

My final thoughts for the camp is that it is definitely a camp to be cherished and remembered!

Amen.
