Camp Life

Dear Brothers.

Its just been another week in camp. Recently, due to some delays in the contractor-SAF communication... We've been having lotsa free time in camp. And thus i have been spending time to read the word of God. "How to read the bible for all its worth" in my hand, the bible on the other, i would be found on my bed reading and reading and reading and ZzZZzZ. =( bad bad. But nevertheless. God speaks through his word.

The book has a chapter: "Proverbs -Then and Now" which explains and gives theological guidelines for the study of the book of proverbs. Through that i have learnt how to apply wisdom which is accurately defined - Godlychoices.

It reveal how Christians can be caught into abusing the text literally. Example in Proverbs 14:7.
I guess this is the way to go deep. Taking time to really seek the word of God.

So okay thats the theory part. Oh yar. Then comes the practical part where God is changing my character to be more refined. One morning i was reading proverbs after breakfast and i felt God showing me how spending too much time sleeping is not the right way to be living.

Right that afternoon, the COY 2IC walked past my bunk, saw platoon best LCP TAN EW asleep soundly and called for STAND BY BED 5mins. very nice one very beautiful indeed. I fell asleep reading bible again. Well thank you Lord for the many lessons.

Lastly when i booked out for nights out, i managed to have a good dinner and then walked into a Christian bookstore and bought this book!. I would dare to say its a LIFE-CHANGING booklet for me. In the next few days to come, i will share more...
