Back to school =)

Current location: Lee Wee Nam Library
Another 2 hours to go.
Waiting for Alvin to end class and go for dinner together =)
After which I hope I'm able to help him with his work.

Recess week literally flew past.
Considering i was in HK for 5 days, I cant reli complain apparently.
Things juz kept happening when I got back.
A friend's Dad passed on.
I'm supposed to go back to camp for a Mob exercise.
I woke up during the weekend feeling a sense of frustration.
Knowing that there are certain things that are beyond our control doesnt reli help much.
But I suppose its not juz abt knowing.
Its abt believing in the love of Christ and letting it sink into ur heart.
Sometimes its better if it bypasses ur mind and goes straight to ur heart.
Sometimes only =)

Anyway, the gospel is not juz something that's nice to listen to every now and then.
Many ppl come to our church because the message is good and inspiring.
But if its anything, I've come to learnt that the gospel is indeed the power unto salvation.
Not juz a ticket to heaven, but so much more!
A good, satisfying, fulfiling life with days like heaven on earth!

Devo was good juz now, reminded me of my position (literally as well) in Christ.
In a sense I reli love what was shared.
That as Christians somehow we can never, ever go wrong.
Not that we're so perfect in our planning or anything.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
But solely and only because we have a perfect Saviour.
Who loves us perfectly and did a perfectly perfect work!!
When things happen, there are onli 2 possibilities.
Either he will somehow bring us through and we get back on path.
Or He has something totally different that we never imagined before.
Something much bigger and better.
He is there simultaneously in all facets of time.
And knows what's gonna happen before it happens.
Knowing that and knowing that He's on my side gives me much security =)
I can never go wrong, not because of me, but because of Him!

We need grace to understand grace

This is an awesome quote from Weiling in cg today :)
Few statements make me agree more than this one!

Grace is so beautiful and yet it can be so easily missed!
Jesus Himself was so full, in such a way that is perfectly glorious and wondrous, and yet there were people who didnt even recognise His heart for the lost. This really reminded me not to take what I have for granted even more, esp. Pastor Prince's ministry and his teachings from the pulpit. I realised that sometimes we Christians have a harder time understanding grace and God's heart of love towards us than non-Christians. Conclusion: everyone needs grace, even Christians!

School has been draining I must say. The probability of me waking up late is directly proportional to the number of weeks that have passed since the start of the semester :P Last Wed I woke up at like 0915 when I had a 1030 lesson. Took a cab down in the end. Then on Mon I woke up at 0847, again with a 1030 lesson. It was super rushed but thank God I managed to reach on time even by taking the public transport! Literally on the dot!

Its incidents like this that make me realise that all the while I'm juz depending on His grace every single day! Simple things like waking up on time, getting the most out of my lectures and tutorials, and many other stuff I take for granted. It has always been He who watches over me :)

Anyway, one more week (with 2 midterms in it) b4 I fly off to Hong Kong!!!
Really cant wait man! :D
I can foresee that its gonna be super fun and super exciting and super cool and super etc.... HAHAHA!! :D
Shall take many many photos to capture all that I can capture! :P
Time to utilise my under-utilised camera again!

A simple yet profound quote that really left me thinking:

'When you know that you already are, you don't have to do to become'
