Thursday, September 9, 2010 @ 4:08 AM On a random drunk Tuesday night several weeks ago, I got a random text from Smita! Smi : Sam, are you coming to Ipoh tomorrow? Hillsong will be performing in Ipoh! Me : What? Serious? Im coming tomorrow! Acknowledging that I was half drunk when I made the promise, I realized that its been a while since I've been to any one of those Hillsong/Planet Shakers concerts. Maybe my half-conscious drunk self was telling me to prioritize God since it has been sometime since I worshipped God for that matter. So it was all last minute to go down to Ipoh. Woke up with terrible hangover the next day at 3pm, together with a mild flu, cough and fever, completely forgotten to bring my bible there, and quickly rushed to Pavilion to meet DJ J-One there as I was following his car to Ipoh. Thankfully we managed to reach there in time for the concert to start, although the journey there have been filled with me listening to the funny, yet lovable singing of the two sohai DJs, DJ Khaixz and DJ J-One. :) The concert was held at Syuen Hotel, Ipoh and there were a LOT of Hillsong fans. It seems almost new to me again, being in an environment full of Christians, yet exciting. The Hillsong Team ![]() Its time to worship. ![]() ![]() It was amazing to see 4000 people in the auditorium unanimously singing and worshipping Him. I almost cried during one of the worship session as I remembered how I used to feel when I worship, knowing that there's only ONE who can love me more than I love myself....Jesus. Pastor Josh gave his 10-15 mins of sermon on younger generations trying to fit in the materialistic world these days, using his own personal experience as an example. I felt a slight pinch at that sermon. ![]() After the concert ended, headed to Barroom with Smi for a short chilling session as J-One was spinning there as a Guest DJ that night, together with a good friend of mine, Mikeal, also known as DJ Liquid, the resident DJ at Barroom. ![]() DJ Liquid ![]() DJ J-One and Smita ![]() ![]() Smita and I I didn't manage to stay over at Smi's place for a night or two at Ipoh as I was getting sick already then. It was an eye opener for me that night and I learnt a lot. I glad I went for the concert because it was a blessing to me. Atleast I know that God still loves me, no matter how many times I forgotten Him, and chose to neglect Him. Labels: concerts, Events, God, hillsong, Travel 0 comments |
