children club is gonna be up and running this coming sat. so exciting. cant wait for it. but abit scared of the administration and kids... well at least admin is not so bad, it's a system which you will learn to master. on the other hand, kids have full of potential to surprise you. they give you ans which you nv tot of. ask you questions you nv heard of. yet you wonder why are you sitting there teaching them primary school work. they are born with the potential to excel in the areas they want but stumbled at answering questions in the assessment books. ironic aye. ahh... we, volunteers, mostly young adults, know the answer to the questions but have difficulty explaining simply to them. oh my... we are all complex beings in every life stages. we need God we gel the generations up. mayb after all, it aint so complicated.
juz let me share sth, before i close this entry. as most of you know that the opening of this club wasnt a big bang. we actually, postponed 2 times due to lack of applications. after the second postpone, i wasnt very sad nor happy about it. juz an nonchalant "ok lor". and i felt that this wasnt really a right attitude. so i asked myself, why do i wan to start this children club in the first place. and i found my ans in the bible, Luke18:15-18 (MSG). the passage is titled The Little Children and Jesus.
"People brought babies to Jesus, hoping he might touch them. When the disciples saw it, they shooed them off. Jesus called them back. "Let these children alone. Don't get between them and me. These children are the kingdom's pride and joy. Mark this: Unless you accept God's kingdom in the simplicity of a child, you'll never get in."
Jesus loves and treasures every children in this world. He wants to be with them. so let us as gd servants of Christ, keep the doors open for Jesus to play and mentor the kids. one day they will know who is Jesus, coz they see Him through us. and pray for that the day will come when they will hear Him calls their names.
What is LOVE to you?
