Time to update my blog again! I had sth in mind for todae's title but i forgot. Nonetheless, i am proud to announce that i have NO MORE SCHOOL for the next 2.5 months ! No big deal to some folks, but have no idea how HAPPY i am. Finally, i dun have to worry about studies and all that crap for a while.
Anyway, i got an A for strat, thank God, i thought i'd flunk man coz i spend half e time talking back to e prof. God is gracious , gave me a splendid group to work and interact with, and also good old lao lee to help us out in Globus.
Back to Work at DF. Things have not been easy, the other analysts are out of town and i'm pretty much alone , it doesn't help that i'm weak in excel and my figures ain't that great. But i'm working at it.
Today, i finally understood Mark 3! I learnt that being part of God's family means two things.
1) Doing God's will
2) Recognising authority from God.
Not disagreeing with God's ways does NOT signify that you recognise good. If u do not do A , that doesn't mean you have achieved B. It just means you have not done A period ! Like wat JB ( and thank God for him doing VBA 101 for an VBA idiot like me) quoted from 'fooled by randomness'by nassim Taleb, "Doesn't mean sth hasn't occured means that you will never do it, it just means it hasn't occcured yet...." And even if u just agree that God has power, does it mean u really recognise it? I could just say God is good and continue to rely on my own strength in all that i do. I could be like the old Israel who agreed that Jesus could heal ppl and therefore looked for him for that reason. OR i could like Daniel, who put 101% trust in God in everything he did, because not only did he agree that God was good, he RECOGNISED His power.
All in all, even as thoughts of where to go , what to do keep circulating around my head ( yeah mel, go ahead and say i Think toooooo much ) I 'm beginning to recognise that just TRUST Him man, whereever i go, whatever challenge faces me, just put it all to Him and trust Him ( and of course do my part la ! ) ..... Faith comes to some ppl easily, and God has blessed them graciously. But for stubborn cows like me, got to struggle and persevere, trusting Him in incremental steps. Not easy but i will keep praying and seeking Him. I'm sure i'll build my faith in Him for everything in my life, big or small and even microscopic..... heh
Ok.. time to sign off, tmr got morning meeting with boss. Ciao!
P;S: 'This part is dedicated to Mel: You say i long winded huh, so does that mean i got BIG LUNGS? Coz u need alot of air to generate a 'long wind......haha.. =p... if u bored tell me, i send u another ''batman take public transport '' story... haha.
