Silent Night

Today is Friday, it's past 12, but still, lets call it Friday night. Today is not a very hectic day for me, so naturally, i got up quite late. Went for prayer meeting at the nearby meeting place, and after that had lunch. After lunch at 2pm, went for my Object Orientated Programming Lab (OOP) from 3 to 5 pm..

Came back from lab, I somewhow felt tired, must be the walk from the lab to my room la... haha.. .So took a little nap, then played computer games with my room mate. AT 9:30, started walking to the co-curricular block for the orchestra practice.. the place seems to be miles away, and tonight, we could not find a car to go with, so we had to walk la.. It sucks, and by the time we reached there, it was 10 something! Tonight, the practice was a little sucky for me.. Wasn't playing all the right notes, and I felt kinda bad.

Just got back like 15 minutes ago and here I am blogging. Haha.. My room mate is not in, the whole house seems to be quiet. Don't know what happened. Guess they must have gone out to mamak... It's so sad, a friday night, with no one to talk to, laugh with, share with. Sometimes, it's lonely to be single, but I believe that God's timing is the best. I'll spend this time with the Lord le instead of wasting it away.. =)

Choosing God's Best

Yay!! I finished the book "Choosing God's Best" yea!!

On the day I began to read this book, God has been leading me and my friend through a lot of things, and I believe that we have both learnt lots of things.

The author, Dr. Don Raunikar presented what is courting vs. dating basically in this book. Through these few months that I have been reading this book, I've learnt many things about God's purpose for a man to be together with another woman. God initiated the plan, so that means we don't have to "help" Him to help us get a mate. I've learnt to trust God in this area of my life, though at many times, I must admit, I still struggle with this issues.

The only way that I can be on the road to find my "other half" is to start building my relationship with Jesus Christ. This is because God will never allow us to put anything before Him and that includes our relationships with other people.

I encourage you guys to pick up this book also! This book is not just for those who are looking for a mate, but also singles and even those already in a dating relationship. Just read this and you'll see God's will for marrige and how perfect it is supposed to be. The process to marrige doesn't have to come with pain, all it takes is obedience to God, and a willing heart to serve one another and honor one another.  

Hot Shot!

Today is a BIG day for my university.. Tun Dr. Mahatir is here! He's giving a speech on "Cabaran- cabaran Mentadbir Sebuah Negara" or "Challenges of Governing a Country". The speech starts at 10:00 am, and ends around 12 i guess, so all our lectures from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm is cancelled!!

So basically, that means that I'm free today la... hehe... Was so busy over the weekend, attending practices, going to church to prepare for Sugar High on friday night, but what I really liked about the past week is that I had time to go swimming with a few of my friends.. ahah.. Today, God gave me time to do my group assignment! All classes cancelled (for me cause I don;t have class after 1pm today... hehehe...) ahah.. This semester, sometimes, looks very gloomy, but everything is brighter when you look at them from God's perspective, when you have God in the picture, you'll believe that everything will work out. And it does!

One of the things I've been learning for the past weeks has been that God wants us to trust Him. God is like a father who is in the raging seas, asking us to jump into the sea before the ship sinks and assuring that He will carry us, but we just look at the water and we fear and forget that He is there to carry us through. When we choose not to trust Him, I think He'll be hurt. Just like you and me, when our friends or loved ones don't trust us, we'll feel hurt.

On the 20th August, I'll be down in KL together with my university's orchestra. We'll be performing the the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra Hall (MPO). So, if you're free, do get yourself a ticket and come see us! ahah... We're nearly halfway through the semester already, in just a few more weeks, we'd be having our mid semester break (September). Got so many things planned for the whole semester and even the coming holidays! ahah...

I have a short term goal for the day:
To finish up the book "Choosing God's Best" and start reading the new book i bought from Kuching... ahah..

Thank you Lord for this beautiful day.

Letting Go Is Not Easy...

There are many things in life that you come across and at a certain point in time, you realise that it isn't right and you have to let it go, but sometimes you find it just so hard to let go. Especially if it's a person.

Oh Lord, may You hold my hands and lead me in Your ways, that I will let go of the things and people that I have to let go, no matter how precious they might have been to me, or how they have been so much a part of my life. Lead me to the cross where we first met, that I might crucify my flesh and live for You everyday.
