Harvest Times in my mail

Yesterday, someone came and knocked on my door, reluctantly I went to open the door, a friend from church came to visit, who is also staying in the same hostel. In her hands were a mail for me…I looked at it, expecting it to be the normal newsletter I receive from Joyce Meyer Ministry but this one was thicker and I looked at the address…

YAPPIE!!! It’s Harvest Times, a quarterly christian magazine produced by City Harvest Church Singapore. I was estaticaly! I didnt know my subscription would actually got through!

I first saw the magazine in Xuan’s apartment and was really excited about it…then inside it says if we want to subscribe can always email or fax. At the same time, Jasmine also was there and she was enjoying the articles inside. So I suggested that we try to subscribe and before I came over to Russia, I emailed both our addresses but wasn’t really expecting it…

It’s so amazing! I’m still very excited about it! I know, alot of people might not necessary agree with how the church is preaching yada yada..But to me, as long as they are preaching the message of God, and getting people to Jesus, I dont think anyone has any right to criticize about another church….because everyone is only accountable to God for their ministry. If they are teaching the wrong doctrines or whatever, they are to asnwer to God and we are not to point fingers….

Anyway, I just finished watching The Four. A lot of people is asking me, why do I have time to watch! I have been thinking about it too..wondering if Russia’s time is slower than other places because I must admit, time at home flies so fast, and I couldnt get alot of things done in a day but here, there are so much extra time that sometimes I dont know what to do. eg, now…

Anyway, last night, I was thinking before I sleep, why do I have extra time to watch series. it’s not like I dont study. I do!! I cook, I wash, I clean, I eat, I sleep, I study…and I still have time to watch one or two or more episodes a day. WHY!! I only manage to conclude….it’s the room!

ROOM??

Size of the room is SMALL. Everything is within reach so I save the few seconds and minutes and there I have the extra time that I dont have at home. The time to go to the toilet and back to my table is maybe just a minute. If i want to drink, I dont need to walk to the kitchen, it’s within reach. It might just take 10 sec to go to my fridge, and back to my table. From my study table to my bed, 3 seconds. Amazing? Very! I finally realized that with those small seconds and minutes that I manage to save, that is how I have extra time to watch series!

Funny? I think so too

Btw, weather out there is currently -4 degrees. Freezing eh..but praise God, this year’s central heating is good and the room is warm.
