Random thoughts - Applications are sent in!!

*phew* have finally sent in the applications to STM... HAve been running around like a headless chicken since yesterday when Uncle Sam gave the green light... Still have to send in several stuff - but I guess that it can wait until Monday.
God never ceases to amaze me(it's a good thing isn't it) *BIG GRIN*. Have been answering prayers in pretty amazing ways.

Am currently reading: Not too busy to pray by Ps Bill Hybels..
It's been really good simple reading.. Little things continues to challenge me as I learn to talk with God more.

Am...

Am listening to : Nichole Nordeman's new album Brave
Am always just really challenged and ministered to by her songs. Hope to be able to write songs just as great as hers. Her songs just somehow resonates in my soul and looks at issues which I am just facing at the particular point of time.

Am waiting for: Decisions to be made
Sigh. I think God's just teaching me patience... and to continually depend on Him and not on man. Still waiting for decisions so I'll know whether I'll be going in January or not. Praise God for peace that surpasses all understanding - it's ok even though I don't go.

Am frustrated because: I want to spend more time with Him
I wonder how many people can identify with me - I want to spend more time sitting at the feet of Jesus... To know Him, what's on His heart. What's just so frustrating is because everytime I want to do so, something crops up and it's just easier to let my time with Him slide. At the end of the day, I say - I'll try again tomorrow.. and it happens day after day. And because of my frustrations and lack of time with Him, I get grumpier more easily, irritated more easily, moody more easily, judgemental more easily and I lack love, grace and mercy.
I'll continue striving till I spend that time with Him though. With His strength and by His grace, I'll get there one day.

Food Poisoning

Getting food poisoning just is the pits.. Energy feels all sapped up cos you can't eat much, your stomach just feels like it's being pulled apart all the time AND you just feel like throwing up all the time..
I just have one thing to say - I have more empathy for those who undergo food poisoning.. :P

Have learnt one lesson - ALWAYS heat up leftover mushroom soup that's been left out on the table for more than an hour or else you'll barely be able to function for the next 2-3 days.. :P

*SIGH*

Time

Time is so so precious..
It is so sparse nowadays - especially when there are always lots to do(Could have something to do with all the ministries I am involved in).. The worst thing about it is that there are much more that I want to do.. Am just 'envious' of ppl with plenty of time... Wish I could have some of their spare time transferred to me so I can use it for the other things that I want to do.. hehhee

Well... What is it that I am doing nowadays??
*Have been fixing my tooth (which will apparently take until February to finish everything - good news is: doctor says that it is healing nicely and that there are no infection).

*Just finished organising our first PJEFC High Praise- which was pretty successful in my eyes(I had very low expectations- I should've had more faith)..

*Tying up loose ends in the office before the end of the year because..... *drum roll*
I am going to BIBLE SCHOOL in January!!!!! At least, it looks that way... Applications and preparations are currently underway... Have been having discussions with lots of people... Am just tying up loose ends and wait for the final decision from my church board.
Am rather excited... Besides having this wonderful opportunity to study again, there'll be pianos there that I apparently can tinker with(whoopeee!!).. Am hoping to have more time to sit down and write songs too. Heheh - we'll just have to see since I have this knack of getting myself involved in heaps of stuff... *grin*
I'm planning to study Bachelor of Divinity at STM Seremban for the next four years. But I'll be back home for weekends to serve in my church.
So am just looking forward to it all!

Dear God,
Thanks for the wonderful opportunity to study at STM next year.. I continue to pray for Your guidance and leading and Your hand to be upon me.
Thank You so much Father :)
