~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!

Book Review: The Spider King's Daughter

I was excited when I read on my BBM updates that this book was going to be made available to the public to enjoy last week. Soon after I had asked the author where I could get the book, I made my way to the University's Waterstones with a wide grin on my face. The inquisitive shop-attendant broke the news that it had not been stocked on our rural shelves yet, so he asked that I order it and expect it within two days. It came the next day.  My reading of The Spider King's Daughter was crammed into short breaks between typing up laboratory reports and essays at first, but something had to give. I finished the book that day. It is a page-turner and for a reader as myself who likes all the details on every page to sink in, I had to make sacrifices. Though the book's title gives the opinion that "daughter" is the main character, in my opinion the book is a coalition of many different characters, each receiving a good share of limelight.

About a Future and a Hope

  For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord , plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope - Jeremiah 29:11 The verse above is one of the most quoted verses of scripture. Whatever the situation is, whether it be of a worthy or not-so-worthy cause, whether it be ordained by God or not, whether it has passed through intense scrutiny using the scripture as a guideline- whatever the situation is- this passage is often used as encouragement saying, “God’s plans are to give you a future and a hope”. On hearing this, you may take a look into the distance with  your binoculars, but if your green pastures are a successful career, a nice house and being recognised by others, you are missing the true and entire glorious scenery. If you do some research into the use of the word “hope” in the context of the Bible's New Testament, you'd find it is an expectation, certain in outlook, trustin...

A gentle reminder

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything                                                                                                      - James
