looming ahead
oh no.. i'm really scared about the near prelims. let alone the A's. sometimes the thought of leaving everything to God can sound like a pretty tough thing to do. but then.. as Christians.. guess faith is all we have. and tonight's fest of praise. oh man.. i so wanna go.. but i'll be so bugged if i know that i can spend that time mugging. but i guess that doesnt spell much of a difference anyway. as a matter of fact.. there's so many things on my list that i want to do! (other than studies that is). cant help but feel sad that all my peers and myself have to go through this academic torture only to proceed to the next level of higher education. wasted youth? i dont know. but i what i know is that i need to mug now. haha.
and just when i thought i was safe.. i recieved a letter to notify me of my posting to the naval base. argh.
firstly... i just got the letter two days ago.. when others got theirs a few weeks in advance. secondly.. its next week wed - a school holiday! just when i wanted to plan the whole day of mugging.
third.. my mom freaked out. she thought i was going to the ndu. i can understand.. considering what happened to my uncle. so i had to convince her that in order for me to go in.. i had to fufill the criteria of being a fitness freak (one who runs 10km every morning before school and cries his heart out when he misses his timing by a second).. which i am no where near about.
so before i go, here's to those who needs the peace and faith.
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
~2 Corinthians 12:9-10
*all from memory.. cant you believe?? haha
