~Welcome, 2011~

A short simple farewell message to the year 2010.

This year has been very eventful for me. In it, I have witnessed a steep learning curve and an even steeper growth curve (well, maybe not physically!),
It's a year where I started a race which I am still running strongly, a year when I started exceeding limits and breaking boundaries- all for a good cause.
It's a year where I met some amazing people and formed stronger relationships with those that had already been in my life.
It's a year where I overcame fears and witnessed the power of faith,
A year where I influenced more lives positively- even unintentionally at times.
It's been a year of good fun, unleashing the youth that I had locked in in my attempt to appear mature.
It's a year where many wishes came true and one where I truly realised that if you work towards the 'impossible', you will get it.
It has been a year filled with love, hope and faith.

Most of all, it's been a year of building solid foundations in my walk with God.

I welcome 2011, heartily,  because 2010 has paved the way for a more tremendous year.


Cheers to an amazing year!

Eclipse

Source: skyandtelescope.com And when the night falls and we cannot see, He will bring light, when the time’s right for you and me. Jon Bloom, an excellent writer for Desiring God , reminded me of the beauty of the eclipse: The shadow of the moon against it does not stop the bright and burning sun and so, the darkness in our heart and minds in times of despair does not mean that the Lord is not present. We may perceive His presence less in times of despondency, and even worse, we may not feel it at all. The obstruction of our mind's "moon" may prevent the warmth of His love from filling our hearts. But we are to be reminded the eclipse is for a moment. The dark night eventually rolls on into dawn and light shines upon us. Jon Bloom, in this article  where he writes the quote above, shares with us how God assured Him of His presence and answered his (Jon's) cries when he was groping for some meaning in his dark times. God is always n...

Steps and Drifters

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit ~ Paul (Galatians 5:22-23) The Christian's calling is a simple one- to come (Matthew 11:28), to follow (Luke 9:23), to keep in step (Galatians 5:23) with the Holy Spirit. Simple, not easy (Matthew 19:23-24) but with God, it is possible (Matthew 19:26). That is why we have been called to keep in step with the Spirit, to watch Him show us the way and lead us to the Kingdom of God. If we are honest, we would acknowledge that we drift. I had been drifting and was doing so for months, until God chastised me, and showed me the danger of drifting ,  twice . So when God opens your eyes to the state of your spiritual walk, if you had been drifting like I was, thank Him for opening your eyes to see where you are. Not everyone gets another chance. Hebrews 6:19 reminds us of the anchor for our soul. Hold on ...

Uni: Me, Mini-me.

Today is Thursday. I'm dreading the night mainly because of the aftermath- a very messy kitchen, quite smelly corridors and grumpy cleaners. My first semester of Uni, I must say, wasn't at all what I had anticipated. I remember coaching myself mentally, preparing for the hard times to come, having an escape plan in case of a metaphoric fire and a Plan B if that didn’t work. Anyway, as it happened, my plan B wasn't well premeditated, lacking enough detail to guide me through smoky situations. All it had inscribed on it was “RUN”. Thursday nights are Mercy Nights- when students get free entry into an over-hyped nightclub. As that isn’t my cup of tea, I tend to stay indoors, watching a movie or trying to catch up with work- the latter being more frequent. The reason I dread these nights is because my flatmates have a pre-party, a chaotic one, where over 10 people squeeze into our kitchen, blast the music through the roof and scream at the top of their lungs in chants for ...
