E night just ended. I think it was a pretty great night. There were plenty of new faces, and from the new comers that I met, there were a handful of non christians as well. Which is always a good sign for these evangelistic events. There was a short jamming session at the end of the night, and we sang, secular, and christian songs till like 12 midnight. Was quite fun, though I'm not the best singer, nor can I play musical instruments but it was still fun none the less.
The message by Mike Raiter was good. Didn't fall asleep this time. I say this because he gave the exact same sermon at Belgrave and I was snoozing away. But not this time. It was about counting our days. And he asked a very good question. Looking back on our whole life, for as much as we can remember, how many genuinely happy days have we had? I couldn't even think of 5. Maybe if I thought real hard, but it just proved a point. That life is so short, and we spend the majority of it suffering. What a vicious world we're in, where we would be content with a mediocre day. A day where we say its fine, its ok. No trouble, thats good. Is considered a good day for us. It's no wonder we can't even think of 5 genuinely happy days.
