i thought i won't be able to make it to the retreat because i really felt terribly sick the night before. i didn't even prepare for it anymore because there's really no way for me to get there given the way i was feeling last friday. but then i woke up before 4am (if i'm not mistaken) and even posted on my FB that i won't be able to go to the retreat coz i'm sick but then my impulsive nature got a hold of me ( or was it the Holy Spirit) and decided to call my friend, not even knowing why i was calling her. and the moment she picked up the phone she asked me if i'm already coming and i said yes. the moment we put the phone down, i took a bath, packed my things and headed straight to the door. i was even the first person to get to the meeting place.... with unmatched earrings, that is! i only got to discover it evening of the first day. fashion statement! ;-)
and boy, was i glad i attended the retreat! i've learned a lot! it brought me back to basic and that is to bear fruit for CHRIST. i used to think that bearing fruit only means winning souls for HIM, how wrong i was. bearing fruits also connote doing good works for me to glorify HIS name. there are a lot of things that struck me but i don't have time to write about it now, gotta rest first.
