God's grace
Bearly pass 10 days into the new year and God has showed me His grace time and again. First, the testimony that I shared touched many on the first day; and brothers and sisters showered me with encouragements after so. Glad to know that the church still do care. Church is offering me help and I have decided to take it up. I was pondering over it at first; accepting church's help means I have another responsibilty on me. I accepted it in the end :) The talk with Pastor Tony was great, he has further encouraged me to do devotion and know God even deeper. Chi Lian Lao Shi has approached me to join her discipleship class and she wants me to pray about it. 9 months of "training"; not too short and not that long. I'm sure a lot of discipline is needed. Great, I know God has heard my prayers and yes; this year He's gonna let me experience Him like never before. Not only am I going to pray harder; I'm going to take actions also. Dreams will always be dreams unless actions are taken.
Another area I see God's grace is on the fellowship. There's a last minute BBQ on tuesday and a first I thought it would be pretty hard to get new friends to come. But, the Lord is good; 43 and counting people will be coming. Pray for the weather and safety of all of us.
Thinking of quitting my job; but on the other hand I had develope feelings for the place and people there. Still can remember the times I shed tears and night prayers for the manager that I thought I wouldn't love. I would love to carry on working, but primary purpose of my life now is on my studies! God has given me a chance to further my studies and this might be my last stage; ought to give my best. But... pocket money wise; if I continue working I will have more than enough and able to save for rainy days.. on the other hand; my school work.. There's additional tuition on sundays; but that allows me to earn less than $30 per month! O God, teach me what to do. I don't want to sacrificed my time with you and with the people around me. Each time after work; I will be too tired for quiet time; even prayers..Lord, open up the way for me.
The cycles comes again; projects, assignments and examinations coming my way. However, after last term's lesson I find myself getting more organised and focused. Lord, guide me with your wisdom. I don't just wanna do the things I want to do, I want to do the things You want me to do.
I remembered my goals and missions in life and that will always be the primary factor in my whole entire life.
Let me update on what's going on too. Proud to be part of the Will@TP marathon event. The last time I met Dr Willian Tan personally was 3 years ago and 3 years later; he's still going on strong. Saw him face to face again after his 24 hour marathon; he's sun burned. The weather was bad; rain and shine.. poor Dr Tan. Eden resources called me too; regarding to the invitation I send to SOP. Was sad and happy when they called. I was in tears when they told me that SOP couldn't accept my invitation; but at the same time happy cause their event this year is bigger. Not to forget the workshop that I missed last year is coming back! It's humble of SOP to make such arrangement of having ER to call me; thanks David! Im sure a chance will come where I'm able to meet up and them and share; God will lead me. Also wanna gave thanks for having Shirly too; been a part of my everyday life; constandly encouraging and keeping me company through SMS.
Got to go; lesson is over and work is waiting.
