Starting at 7:30-8:05pm, we read Psalm 8 & 9.
Participants were Seiyu, Ko, & Kanami. (Hiyori and Akari were on a trip).
Ko learned the importance of not only remembering what God has done in his life, but confessing His goodness. He believe that positive confession is especially important during difficult times when it feels like all hope is lost. Remembering what God has done helps him stay focused on His faithfulness. He also connected to what he learned today’s service how he’s learning to see true self image in how God sees him and how valuable he is to God.
Seiyu didn’t have nothing to share in this chapter.
I shared how Psalm 8 reminded of me of the worship song Majestic. From the Psalm 9:13-14, when David asks God for mercy and to lift him up from the gates of death, I could see how he trusted God and already knew that by trusting Him, he will experience deep joy. I also connected to today’s service when I learned the difference of real joy and temporary joy. Temporary joy comes from feelings/circumstances, but real joy comes from seeing God’s work in our lives. I could relate to this through my path of becoming a chef. Seeing how God guided and prepared for me gave me a deeper joy from looking into His guidance and faithfulness.
Lastly, we prayed for to guide us when preparing for the next Evangelical Meeting and we stood on Colossians 3:16-17.
