Argh. Two days to the first paper CM3292. It's open book. At the back of my brains, I've assumed it to be easy as we did some of the stuff in year 2. I barely touched it.
I feel.. lost. as people try to deprive me of doing something which I desire to do. I'm thankful. Yet.. I feel deprived. Argh. I can't concentrate as things abt the ministry just keep popping up.
On a brighter note, I almost finished revising jap, and halfway through another paper, halfway through organic chem on Thursday.
I really did study k.
Argh, I can' stop thinking abt ministry work.
Somebody help me.

Yesterday was another angrifying day.
Thank God for Christine and Liqun's presence which helped so much.
I have people who took me for granted.
I have people who did not apologise for something they did wrong and was still rude to me.
I was fumed.
But.. reminded to to do what's right. I can't control people's responses, but I can control mine.
May the Lord help me to be nice to be more willingly.

Today's session was very enriching. Very clear. Was on jealousy of God. Basically two things,
1) Worship right God (commandment no. 1)
2) Worship right God the right way (commandment no. 2) Not make idols. (interesting how the Israelites made the golden calf to 'worship the God who brought them out of Egypt'. So they wanted to worship God, but they wanted to worship God their way.)
Many implications. He explained very clearly how it's possible to be a Christian and not worship the right God. Just love the way he used examples in a very comical way to bring truths out. He touched on looks, money, studies that could become our 'god' when these things take precedence over our time with God.
Will meditate on the truth and confess my sins.

Thanks for being can't be bothered.
Thanks for being insensitive.
Thanks for not bothering to apologise nor giving an account for my birthday.
Thanks for only being concern about your own life.
Thanks for keeping quiet.
Thanks for saying things which doesn't help in the friendship.
Thanks for trying to be so indirect.
Thanks for keeping things to yourself.
Thanks for not opening up to me.
Thanks for being so immature.
I'm angry.
Drats. Sheila's reminder.
I can't be bothered anymore. Let's just face it. Since you are so uninterested in my life, or can't be bothered, please just be direct about it. Can just make the status clear?

Went for session with the kiddos.
Today's session was on sovereignty of God. Was expecting more tho esp after doing about the sovereignty part in my qt mat.
But am refreshed.
Reminded of how I should be responding during times of difficulties. And when I reached home, I fished for a note written by Sheila for my birthday. She wrote this hymn inside and I was singing to it..
O rejoice in the Lord
He makes no mistake
He knoweth the end of each path that I take
Cause when I'm tried and purified
I shall come forth as gold
Brings much memories and thanksgivings of how God has kept me through many difficult situations.

Hmm..
Exam period.. Did a bit of blog-surfing and hearing a bit fr ppl.. Esp ppl who juz entered uni life..
The common thing: Everyone desires good results.
Was just thinking... Why do we struggle when we are uncertain if we are going to have good results? Or rather, the results of our expectations? A+ etc?
Is it a Singapore thing? Or a uni thing? Or?
Is it our own expectation? Or pride? Or knowing we can do better if given more time or more effort is put into it?
I struggle too.. The only principle that keeps me aligned now is that God is oso concern about the process.
Also, if I know I've not done well in the process, I should be braver than anyone to face the consequence instead of running away from it.
Tough.
