The Mind of the Melancholeric Man: Musings on Life and Ministry by Patrick Tan
I am OK now. :) There's a point where I need to 'drown' (again) my old self dead with everything that's God's. And it drowned.
Yesterday was the end of one of our campus cells in Parada National High School. I felt we were hitting a dead end. And it wasn't serving our purpose. It was a unanimous decision between me and my assistant.
I sound like a quitter, though I hesistated to give it up. Somehow I don't want to let myself down. But looking at the facts, it was a wise decision made late even, where we could have prevented early on.
I have to sit with my co-leader for another 30 minutes just to let it sink in that it is over. But after our conversation, hesitation is gone, like when a burden is gone.
One cell down. Two to nurture.
It is a good day today.

Today I did nothing. Chilled out. Had an hour meeting with Pastor early afternoon.
Yesterday. In the morning I went to Acropolis in Libis, QC for a meeting with a design company which a client hired and formed a team that includes me. Her office is located in her house, a very fine house. She had lots of ecclectic collections and wood furnitures. Very rustic.
After the meeting I went to mall to meet my parents there to purchase some items for our house.
Past days have been shaky inside, though its cause is my own stupidity. The enemy can shoot us down even in our highest flights. Pray that God's mercy lasts the night.

Today at lunch I dropped by McDonald's (again) to visit Leslie, Katrina and Bernadette a.k.a. 'Badorch' (tama ba yun?), my new friends from our cellgroup in Chiang Kai Shek College. Kat gave me a PDL Daily Inspiration Book, so sweet of her. We stayed there until 3:30PM afterwards we went to their tutoring place near the school. They tutor elementary kids. After which Lawrence, Brznf and I met to go prayerwalking in school.
I came to church for practice but there was no electricity. Soon I began to panic. But an hour later power came back so we were able to practice for tomorrow's concert.

Got home an hour ago. Tired.
This afternoon's campus cellgroup was unbelievable. I babysat a bunch of kids (first year highschool - 12-13 years old) in the Valenzuela highschool. Looks like they just came there for the fun and the chance to stay out home. Grabe. I felt tired. It wasn't what I expected to be. And it's becoming a burden. And they are still growing in numbers. I don't know if I would call it a opportunity or problem. I don't know if my patience is tested, I'm a natural short fuse.
Campus cellgroups in the 2 college are up and running. Gearing up for our quarterly All-out Praise And Worship (APAW) for Saturday.
Need.. rest..
