i missed IBS (Inductive Bible Study) today...and i feel terrible about it. like as if i'm not holy enough or something.
why is it that when you don't show up for these kind of christian conferences, people always make you feel as if you're not as good as the people who do go? is it everybody or is it just me? take an easy example :: youth camp : don't you feel bad when you tell people that it's not that you can't make it to youth camp it's that you just don't feel like going at all? you feel like you need some major excuse not to go for youth camp or something (you here is used as a generic term). as if if you miss out on it u'll be missing out on armageddon or something to that extent. i guess youth camp is a great experience but people seriously shouldn't feel bad for not going.
nb: i did not miss this yr's youth camp coz i didn't want to. i was in KL.
i think it's the whole idea that there must be a hunger in knowing God..that you must be excited to get to know more about him and get to be closer to him. people keep saying 'move forward, move forward'..why can't i just enjoy what i have now for the moment instead of constant pushing? it's not use making someone go for something that he doesn't want to go for and worse still making him feel bad for it. am i even making sense?
i didn't go for IBS today coz i've got dance publicity stuff to do, i'm sick and i don't feel like going. when i said that i was awake but i was sick, he said 'so you're up already? u can come now.'..what the..??? my mummy said that i don't have to be accountable to them as long as i know what i say is true. so there. decisions you make shouldn't be up to other people to decide, they should be up to God.

Are your thoughts results of static cling?
