Exams finally almost over!!! :-)

Yay! Exams almost over! Haha. Gd gd.. going home on wed. I hope i pass everything.. Finally going back home after 5 months! Miss home, miss the food, miss friends, miss family, but i dun miss the hot humid weather. Haha. It's gonna be so much of a strange transmission. Haha. The weather, traffic, hdb flats. Hee. Can't wait for my last paper on tue to b over. But i have to admit, had a wonderful experience here in adelaide. Will miss the church n ocf gatherings here though. I'll b back on 20th july.. ready for a whole new semester of studies again. I must say studying in asssie isn't as easy as i thought it would be. Most ppl think it's easy but trust me it's not. The uni has really challenged me to work hard and to understand things from a new perspective. It's tough but nothing in the world is easy. Oh yeah, mother theresa movie is showing in adelaide soon i think n my church is selling tickets. Wanna watch but can't.. sigh. Watched a trailer in church, and i think it is a wonderful and inspiring movie even though i haven't watched it yet. Mother theresa said something that struck me and i will remember it for as long as i live. She said, "I am only a pencil in the hands of God, He is the one who writes.".. Such words of wisdom and such a woman of God she is!! It is so so true. We are only here on earth to fulfil what God wants us to do, so that His name can be heard and glorified all over the world.. He Loves us so much... oops. Gtg study for my last paper ald.. I think the next blog(Which will b quite some time) i will put up will b frm S'pore! Haha. Take care every1 in adelaide! see ya all back!! :-)

GOD'S WEATHER

GOD'S WEATHER

"And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. But the men marveled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!"
Matthew 8: 26,27
King James Version

Hurricane season starts in June in Florida where I live and probably where a lot of you who read this live. Last year we were hit very hard by a hurricane and it caused a lot of destruction. The place where my cousin lives was hit by two hurricanes and that was unusual, I am told. Hurricanes can cause property damage, trailers to be overturned, roofs to be blown off, and a lot of other devastation.

There are hurricanes that are a lot more harmful. We have hurricanes of divorce, drugs, alcohol, abuse of children, spouses, the elderly, and broken homes. While the hurricanes on land can cause destruction, eventually the homes and property will hopefully one day be restored. It is not that simple with a human life.

It is vital for us to examine our hearts and see if there is something that is displeasing to Jesus, something that might be hindering our fellowship with Him. If our hearts are not right before Him, then it is impossible to treat others with the love and compassion that He asks us to display to others.

Is your heart and life full of hurricanes of jealousy, bitterness, envy, strife, anger, and resentment? If so, then I urge you to go to God and let Him calm the storms in your heart. Jesus will shower you with His Peace, Understanding, Love, and Compassion and place His Love in your heart instead of the hurricanes of the world.

Where is God in my studies???

Are you always putting pressure on your academic results and spending most of your time achieving them? Or are you having the “heck care” attitude in your studies and would rather spend your time on your hobbies?

Being too absorbed in your studies is not all you should be focusing on. Romans 9:32 says this about being too busy: “They [Israelites] were so absorbed with their ‘God projects’ that they didn’t notice God right in front of them, like a huge rock in the middle of the road” (The Message). These people had good motives, but they missed the whole picture – that is, seeking God in all they do.

What about those of us who have been neglecting our schoolwork? Do we have difficulty in studying? We can depend on God who will help us in everything we do, by making the yoke light. “Take my yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart and you shall find rest for your souls” (Matt 11:29; NIV). God has instructed us to exercise the gifts and talents He has given to us, and do our best at school out of love and devotion to God. So keep this in mind – God is with us in everything we do, so trust Him to guide and lead us according to His will.

Keep growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
2 Peter 3:18

Taking It All

In our lives, the time has come to stand,
We cry out for all people in this land
We need you Lord
Send your power as your children rise in faith
Take a hold of me
Life my eyes to see
Give you praise now i believe

We're taking it all for the glory of your name
I'm giving my all just to glorify your name
We your church will rise
Never satisfied till we are standing face to face
We've waited far too long
Now we are strong

With all my heart
I raise my voice
And cry i need you Lord
Yes I need you

Lift Up Your Eyes

I see heaven before me
Angels passing around me
Here i stand in awe of your beauty
Captured by your holiness

Lift up your eyes
All of heaven's in worship
Angels rejoice and the clouds will be filled
With the wonder of your name
With the wonder of your name

The train of his robe fills the temple with glory
Heavenly hosts fall before him in worship
Crying Holy,Holy,Holy is the Lord God Almighty
Holy Holy Holy is the Lord God Almighty
