“When you grow and develop the right condition inwardly, the words Jesus spoke become so clear that you are amazed you did not grasp them before. In fact, you were not able to understand them before because you had not yet developed the proper spiritual condition to deal with them.” I find this so true in recent QTs… The passages that I am reading through these days seem to connect with me and I can understand and relate well with the verses. At the same time, intriguing thoughts that I never have had before seem to fill my mind. I guess I’m starting to take QTs more seriously and am putting more effort to read and understand the Words of God. It really feels good to be able to understand the words of the Lord and I guess the most important thing is to apply them into our daily lives and spiritual walks with Him.

I remember wanting to post this pic up some weeks ago before semester closed, but I guess I have been busy with things… it’s something that I have done during the last DG session.
Basically, it surmarises the ups and downs of last semester:

1. Person drawing a portrait: Represents how I used to be so mindful of how other people view me; but I have since learnt not to as I definitely will not be able to please everyone; the most important thing is to live a life pleasing to God.
2. Confident Super-kid VS background doesn’t-seem-to-be-bothered Super-kid imposer: Being a child of God, I can be confident in everything I do since my strength will come from Him.
3. Horses on the field: How enriched I have been having gone through the many events that Crusade has organized; Harvest Rally, The Naked i campaign, and even through the busy times that I have to cope juggling with so many things.
4. “Love is in the air” logo and the pretty, colourful flowers background: Represent how I have been showered with love and concern by friends and family members. The colourful flowers add on to the feelings of happiness.
5. Friends: Yes, the importance of friendships. They help you, encourage you and pray for you!
6. “Forever 21” logo: This logo was included not because I want to remain 21 forever, but rather to fill up the empty space and maybe because of the 21. Many of my friends have turned or will soon (within the next 7 months) turn 21. Many of those who have turned 21 have told me that they felt a sudden extra responsibility being placed on them. How scary. 21 is indeed a milestone in a person’s life. Not only does it mark the beginning of adulthood, it will also mean more freedom and of course more responsibilities.
Hmmm… didn’t know that I will write so much. Anyway, today’s going to be a busy day. I have planned to do so many things. I have been so tired recently… I think I’m getting too much rest, not that I’m complaining, but maybe it’s time to change.

Yippee. Exams are over now... I shall now keep my fingers cross for the results.
I think that God has been faithful and great to me this semester... I really thank God for surrounding me with supportive friends, providing me with constant prayer support. Thank you friends, brothers and sisters for your prayers.
Now is the time to catch up with friends, spend time with my family... I really miss talking and going out with mum...
I also know that many of my friends are going overseas, be it on exchange, summer programmes and mission trips, I will keep all of you in prayer. If you have any specific prayer requests, feel free to drop me a msg.
