Light beyond the storm.
""He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men;
"yet they cannot fathom what God has done from the beginning to end.” – Ecclesiastes 3:11

Monday, July 7, 2008 Back to update. Hmm... School has been alright. Went for a camp in the first 3 days and many exciting things happened! haha... ambulance, snake, ndp. Woah.. was pretty tired after the camp, but thankful for it because i got to know more people and got to know some better. I missed the times we slack in the dorm and talk.... =) Back to normal school time... still managing, but i can see the pile of homework to be marked. haha. My classes are still quite ok, since they are lower sec. Some girls are pretty adorable too.. =) back to a familiar ground, but different role... feels... interesting. HAHA. Starting on 40 days fast.. fasting on breakfast or lunch, but since my stomach feels weird sometimes, i'm also fasting from games and snacks at night, in case i cant fast from meal. fasting on snack can be real difficult for me, especially at night. God is also speaking to me through the booklet. It is not about going through the 40 days as a routine, duty... not to fast for our own pleasure or delight, not to feed our ego or to be focus on ourselves. It is fasting for God... the fast that pleases God is that when we remember the poor, when we seek Him with all our hearts and when we put down our own interest and allow Him to tranform our hearts. Today's sermon was a starter for it. Pastor Bray was super good... i like him. =) He can rap, sing, play the keyboard and he preaches real well.. The message did come from God, timely and accurately. We must die to our self-consciousness. Being self-conscious will lead to fear - fear of people's approval, opinions and judgement on us, to shame - to feel unworthy, guilty, shameful, to shifting of blame and to rejection. How true... being self-conscious stops us from reaching our potential, from fulfilling our talents, from allowing God's will to come through in our lives.. But i don't want to miss out on all these blessings, i want to be the best that i can be, so that i can fulfill the plans of God in my life. I axed that tree of self-consciousness today. It might still grow back, so i need to continually weed my life and don't let any tree of self-consciousness takes root.. no no... believe and have faith, it shall be done, will be done, is done! =) Labels: Christ in me, School -The Princess Jesus Loves- 1:58 AM
