Wow!~

Since the last post, so many things happened in my life..but I think I've experienced so much of God's mercy and grace.Life has not been comfortable at times but are we expected to be comfortable all the time? I think we can only grow once we have gone through trials and difficulties because then we can only know the true meaning of hardship. I've learnt to fully trust in God and not just to 'half trust' where there are doubts but to FULLY trust in Him. There are times when I just feel like giving up on a certain problem but after knowing that the problem is not a problem but rather a challenge, it's easier for me solve it...this reminds me of a friend from RBS who once said to me "it's a blessing, not a burden"(if you're reading this, you know who you are!) I feel that it's important for us to submit outselves to God and to allow Him to work in us.

...hmmm....This semester is going to end pretty soon and I've got so much more to read especially for biology and geology. Something that I did not expect earlier: I really like geology so much! My mum told me that a geologist in a family is already enough so we don't need another one :-) Anyway,I'm reminded of God's calling that is teaching. Teaching was never in my mind during my secondary school days but when I was in Form 6 I started to ponder about my future, what was God's will for me. I prayed. From then on I realised that teaching was for me and when I was a temporary teacher, I really enjoyed teaching. It made me realise how much I can give to these students and the impact that I can have on them but most important is that I can tell them about God's love.

On another topic, I think it's really hard for a parent to see their son or daughter(especially daughters) leaving home after getting married. It's hard for me to accept the fact that my sister is going to get married in less than 2 months time. It was much easier for me when my brothers got married but I think it's because I'm much closer to my sister. We won't be seeing her every weekend and during Christmas. Yup, it's hard to let go of something that you cherish a lot but that is how life is. You let go and you move on.
