Passion was AWESOME! A more subtle and mature version of BattleCry, but all still AWESOME. We arrived in LA around 5 - 6ish pm? It was a long ride but it felt pretty short; mainly because Ray was driving. Its like flying down there. Hahaha. We dinnered and set off on our Passion adventures. David Crowder was AWESOME. Chris Tomline was AWESOME. Matt Redman was AWESOME. Frances Chan was AWESOME. Louie Giglio was AWESOME. What an AWESOME weekend. Getting food was our only problem. There were so much people, it takes like half an hour to order a sandwich from subway. I totally felt my wallet choke of dryness. Poor dear. We're also an indecisive group; well, they are. Its too a point where you'd just want to scream. They cant get anything proper and done. Sigh. I hope we do this again. I enjoyed it quite well.
Lets recap shall we? Session One: Stuck in a slimy pit of mud. When we try to climb out, we always fall back in; just when you see the day of light, we slip right back into the darkness. However, if we call upon God (Give everything to him) he will personally reach in with his almighty hands and pull you right now. Let go of the things that bother you, he will fix it. Isnt that awesome. God will save me from my pit.
Session Two: The farmer and the seeds. God is the Farmer, we are the seeds. He throws us out into the field. some may get caught in thorns, others may end up in the shades, and others just are completely lost. Those who are thrown into the soil will trive and grow. Those are the ones that say yes to God; while the others have said no to God. What a shame. God is very straightforward and direct. He wants a yes/no answer from you.
Session Four: DO SOMETHING! "College studens are pretty radical, they'll do the craziest things" -Giglio. God has heard all the songs a million times, he has hear the sermans twice as much. What God really wants is for use to take action; to change; to make a difference. Help the homeless, feed the poor, provide for the needed, do a simple good deed. Or even better, move on to big long term missions across the world. Help Africa build wells, preach in China, save kids in Thailand. By doing these, you'll get the greater picture. To put yourself in their shoes and fully understand them.
"You experience life when you give it up" -Frances Chan.
