One Thursday morning last year, Ong Lee invited me to the Bible Study Fellowship introduction class and at the end of the session I registered for the 2012 BSF class. I was really excited about it and looked forward to attending the class and yesterday was the 1st BSF lesson of the year.
At this very moment I can't help chuckling to myself when I think it over. The fact is, I expected to see warm greetings and smiling faces everywhere but no, everybody seemed preoccupied and only talked to their friends. At the ladies, "how is your holidays?" was the greeting of the day!! Haha...... understandable, after a break of 3 months. Mind you, this greeting was only to their friends!! I was also queueing inside the ladies and because I was a newcomer, they gave me a curious glance and before I could smiled at them, they looked away. Don't worry, I was not offended. On the contrary, I was amused.
Here is another discovery. At the discussion groups, everybody introduced themselves. All of them said that they have learnt a lot about the Scriptures after attending BSF classes. Some even quoted Bible verses after verses. Wow!! But, none of them touched on FELLOWSHIP.
However, I must say that yesterday's lecture was good. I believe that after finishing this whole year's lessons, I will definitely gain more knowledge of the Scriptures too.
Whatever, I am determine to attend the class every Thursday. After all, my aim is to have an in depth study of the Bible. Nothing else matters.
Hmm... from now on I will just say that I am attending BS...... minus the F. Hahahaaa...
Please don't get me wrong. I am not complaining, I am just writing out my thoughts.
Honesty is wonderful. I have been attending this church but can't seem to find fellowship. :)
