When Everyone Stands Up!

I woke up at 4am yesterday and headed to church to meet pastor Gerry. We both went to Malabon to attend the workers' meeting at Central Luzon Conference. The meeting started with a typical devotional. After all the announcements, all of the Pre-interns, including me, met together and discussed the formation of our own organization. Ephraim Tolentino, one of the new pre-interns stood up and led the meeting. He proposed, that our group should elect our own officers and be organized. Many stood up and questioned the proposal. Many disagreed with the proposal and some even made their own proposal. While everyone else was standing up, I remained seated and whispered a prayer. "Lord help me to control myself, that I will remain humble when everyone else becomes proud, that I will remain seated when everyone else stands up!
