Precious Sisters !!

Farewell lunch... not sure how I should feel about it especially when I am the one who will be leaving, I guess...

This luncheon is however very significant and this group of precious sisters are from the days of my 'humble beginnings' in my walk and progress in GT.... there were new ones added in the team that has blessed me along the way but saying goodbye to those who have stood by me through my trials and hard times, who have cried and laughed with me, who have rebuked, admonished and built me up, who have cheered me on-(wow!) I guess no words can ever describe how blessed I am to be placed along side these strong powerful praying women of God , these strong Godly counsels , these women of faith and these precious vessels of God who radiate the presence of God and these intercessors who desire nothing less than the heartbeat of God in the presence of God.... All glory to God!! and how God is always waiting and bring us into His presence each Monday and I mean each time we meet on Mondays...how God uses each to mould and to sharpen yours truly.....

I've lost count of the number of years since I joined the Monday group but I will always remember the first few times I went ( was it after Y2K???? can't really recall the year)- not knowing 'anything, not hearing not seeing etc etc' and looking back, I am so happy to say I have grown so much and intend to grow more each day in HIM..alleluia!! There was this presence of God that has drawn me to go each week despite the traffic jams and all the what nots... the best group I have ever belonged to... my 'watering hole'- I received so much and am so grateful to God who has placed me there..

These are the people whom I have learnt so much from... there isn't much restraint or pretense because we will just enter into prayers and intercessions.... not even looking at each other...I will always remember those times when the Lord came and filled us up , refreshing us and strengthening and speaking His Word of Life through words of prophecies, the many visions He has enabled our eyes to behold, of His glory and His majesty... also those times where tears will just flow freely and hearts broken when we cried and interceded and prayed for many many things who have been heavy in our spirit and how we saw the LORD answering the prayers right before our eyes... oh!! those glorious moments when He revealed that He is always in control... the Lord of the Universe, my Lord and my Master...

There were just so many wonderful testimonies from and through each of our lives... how we have all grown and how the Lord led our team ... remarkable and awesome!!! Each of us, I would dare attest to, has certainly grown a step at a time, a level at a time and eventho' each were blessed with different gifts, and functioned differently, we are one in His Body and served with one purpose and that is a Wow Factor....!!

It surely wasn't a 'happy-go-lucky' journey at all ; quite the opposite. in fact it has been 'hard, trying and stretching' as we witnessed each other being 'moulded and pruned' by a very 'steady Gardener', as we 'struggled and shadow boxed...' but the 'outcome' after the 'polishing' displayed the 'radiance and the shine' of the Potter's handiwork and just when you think you are done, another session begins.... surprised??... well you should not be because we are all work in progress afterall- there are definite stages and levels in our lives where we are meant to be moulded and then elevated to... As I will always say ,"....the faster you die to self, the faster you will be resurrected- cease struggling and just surrender because the One that has started a good work in me, He will bring it into completion and His Purpose for me will be established... does it mean I have made it there already? of course not... it just means that I have got a step closer.

Still, WIP (Work in progress) ^^
