My Weird And Wonderful  Blog

Just came back from Charismatic with Annabel and Alex.. I walked out halfway cos I had to go home.... but... well... I prefer Youth Service at PLMC... for a number of reasons. Firstly, I'm a Methodist, and that was Catholic... so praying to the Blessed Mother for intercession doesn't really sit well with me... secondly, maybe it's cos of the reverence Catholics treat Charismatic or something... but I find Youth Service a whole lot more fun... as in we get to worship without any restraint... cos the settings are informal... we get to sing and dance (literally), but during the praise and worship at Christ the King I felt kind of stifled... not sure, partly cos of that and also cos I didn't know half the songs...
One thing that I'm thankful for is that God's prescence was there... all around... I could feel it... and it felt really nice... cos I was really debating with myself whether I should go... then I felt God around me... and I could almost hear him say, "Rest assured, who cares if you're a methodist in a catholic service? The fact's just that you came to see Me." That was really wonderful... and this really let me see that there's no real difference between a Methodist and a Catholic faith... the basis is there... just that Catholicism is just a bit more ritualistic and Catholics believe in Mary...
Speaking of which, I spent $14.90 on a praise and worship CD... and its really fun listening to it now... :P
