• Reflections on the scripture I read and meditated on today or this week:
[ Representative Verses ]
Luke 16:10 “If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities.
[ My Reflection ]
Through the conference sessions, I learned that I need to be content, focused, and grateful for what God has given me right now. Something that looks small isn't always small—it grows day by day, and in the future it becomes bigger than I could ever expect.
This reminded me of my struggles when learning things like guitar. Sometimes it feels like I'm not improving, and I get disappointed. But when I keep practicing day after day, I begin to see the progress. God showed me again that I don’t need to focus too much on the future. Instead, I should focus on what I have now—trust God, be faithful with the little things, give, and serve well.
• Events of the day and my reactions/actions:
Journal – Counter Culture Conference
These past two days, Friday and Saturday, I attended the Counter Culture conference at Favore Church. It was my first time joining, and it felt so refreshing and freeing. During worship, I didn’t feel self-conscious at all—I could dance, sing, and worship God freely without worrying about what others thought. In those moments, I felt truly alive and connected with God. I couldn’t help but imagine the day when this kind of worship will happen in Cambodia too. I want to see Cambodian generations worship God with freedom, passion, and purity.
One of the verses that stood out to me was Luke 16:10, reminding me to be faithful with little things. The sessions helped me realize again that I need to be grateful for what God has given me now. Small things are not always small—they grow over time. Sometimes I feel discouraged when I don’t see quick improvement, like when I’m learning guitar. But when I keep practicing day by day, I see slow but real growth. God reminded me to focus on the present, trust Him, and be faithful in the small things He has placed in my hands.
Through this conference, God stirred something fresh in my heart for worship ministry. I want to be a worship leader who helps people encounter God. I want to be a clean and pure vessel for His presence. I believe that living in the Philippines and joining this training is not a coincidence—God prepared this for me. He is shaping me, leading me, and getting me ready for what’s ahead. I’m excited for the day I can share the Good News of Jesus with boldness and confidence, not only with words but with my life.
• My thoughts for today:
These past two days have been really meaningful for me. Joining the Counter Culture conference made me feel refreshed and encouraged. I enjoyed the worship so much. I felt free to dance, sing, and express my love to God without worrying about what people might think. It made me hope even more that one day I can see this kind of free and passionate worship in Cambodia too.
