Praise the Lord for the gospel meeting last night. The gospel meeting for this time, we have it at two venue at the same time. So it's really a spiritual warfare for us and every saints in Imu are required to coordinate. Throughout the preparation, there's a portion of word from Bro Watchman Nee kept reminding me. "Why do we work so much and pray so little when we can accomplish much more by our prayer than our work?" No mater how much we work outwardly, it's all depend on the Lord's blessing.
Just before the meeting start, i received the sms from gospel friends saying that they are not coming. Really felt disappointed that time. When it's the time to start the meeting, there is only one gospel friend. I had never encountered such poor condition. This make me even worry, i have no joy and lost my faith toward Him. I cant contact my friends who at first agree to come, then i went down to wait for them. I met a sis on my way back to the meeting place. I told her my worries, this sis was so calm, telling me that the meeting havent finish yet, it's possible for them to come before the meeting end. Thank God, as the meeting carried on, the saints and gospel friends continue to come. In this matter, the Lord really exposed me to see that how little my faith is.
There's a gospel friend whom we had contacted for a year++. I had never thought of her baptism and dont even dare to tell her about it. Last night the sisters approached her and encouraged her to get baptized. When i saw her face, she seems like so stress and told us that it's not the time yet. The problem is that she had believed, but she worried about her family. However, thank the Lord for the body. Through the coordination of body, we continue to encourage her, tell her about our testimony of baptism and even pray for her. After the prayer, we brought her into the room. When asked her to change her clothes, she still considered a lot and refused to do so. 那时我的信心又开始动摇。。姐妹们却不放弃，他们又继续打负担。Praise the Lord! He is the faithful and living one. Finally, she got baptized.
Luke 15: 6 " And when he comes into his house, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost." All the brothers and sisters were so rejoice and they all were there testifying her baptism. After her baptism, she's full of joy. This morning, she had morning revival with us at sis hse. Praise the Lord for this vessel! May the Lord continue to gain her to have the normal church life.
Through this gospel meeting, I see that this is a body matter. Without the body, this meeting can hardly carry on. Really treasure the coordination of body. Also throughout this gospel meeting, I had learned the lesson of Faith. The lord exposed me again and again to see that how little my faith is. I'm too affected by the outward environment. 如果每个肢体都像我那么小信，我相信晓莉今晚就不可能受浸。那时就会很亏欠主了! Although not many gospel friends came, at least the Lord gain Sau Lee to enter into the Kingdom of God. "...there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner repenting than over ninety-nine righteous persons who have no need of repentance." (Luke 15:7) Everything happened is under His sovereign arrangement in order for us to experience Him!
"Lord, I praise You! Hallelujah! Glory be to You, my God! "
