hey everyone.. ;D soryy i haven't exactly been updating regularly. ;P school has been hectic and tiring. i know, there are people worse than me, but still. our class does have a huge amount of homework. don't believe me? check out my class blog and see for yourself. th link is on th right. ;D
anyways, i don't think i have any interesting stuff to share. class with 3/5 is fun, though. ;D i have been laughing through homework and class ever since i changed places with Syhirah. i am supposed to sit like in th very front row, then it became 2 rows back. ;D its so much better, and even my form teacher, MS UMA! agreed it was better. hahas ;D i hope it's permanent, 'cause it's sort of a win-win situation, and i love it there. ;D
today's e-learning day, so i get to lepak at home.. ;D going hand-billing later, with Claudia and Marcus and possibly Jeremy, but he hasn't replied my sms yet.(: ohwells.
our net is "multiplying"!! my bestfriend and goodfriend are both in th other net.. /: ohwells. no choice bahs(: at least i still have Claudia and Natasha and Marcus(:
oh and i had this devotions and i think it's really good. hope you don't mind if i type it out. if you do mind, well. too bad. hahas ;D dedicated to all fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. ;D
what's pulling your train?
if we compare our relationship with Christ to a train, we have to allow faith to pull us down the track into a deeper relationship with God. faith pulls the cars of fact, feeling, joy, discouragement, loneliness - whatever makes up your train of life. but it's important to remember that faith and fact are like the engine and the coal car; they are never disconnected or interchanged.
Jesus announced that He was standing at the door of our hearts and knocking. He went on to say that if anyone would answer the door and let Him come in and reside in his home, He would come in and share a meal as a friend. the fact is: when you have repented of your sins, Christ has forgiven you of your sins and wants a relationship with you. and by faith, you believe in Him. the just shall live by faith.
there is no other engine that pulls the train, and no other coal car that feeds the engine except the fact that you have been forgiven. the other cars in your train may come and go. there will be days when you experience feelings of joy. you may be overwhelmed by His presence. there may be other days when you have feelings of loneliness or discouragement, or you may be sick and not feel a thing.
you may think your train has been derailed because you can't feel God. during those times, Satan will work like crazy to make you think you're not a Christian. he'll tell you that you never were saved in the first place. or he may bring up a sin from your past and try to make you think that God can't possibly forgive you for that. don't believe Satan.. even for a second!
instead, keep doing what you've always d0ne : continue reading your Bible. keep praying to your Heavenly Father. and no matter what the weather is on the outside, keep the Son shining in your heart by steadily growing in His Grace.
i hope you are encouraged... ;D
anyhow, i can't seem to be able to upload pix.. ohwells. hahas ;D i'll try another day.
oh yea! i just realized, this is only th second post of th YEAR. hahas ;D man. my blog is almost dead alreadys. nevermind. random. hahas ;D
oh yea. im going to genting on th 14-15 of march. ;D it's gonna be awesome!! th only drawback is that its on from saturday-sunday, and its with my maternal extended family, but at least it gives me a reason ito skip GB camp.. wahahahaha ;D ohwells. i plan to buy lotsa stuff.. ;D
take care and God bless, people. hope those who are taking/ have taken your exams are done and have good results! ;D
take me to where there's fun, light and laughter. take me to Your presence. take me to where you forget.

Oh Genting? Its gonna be fun. I enojy going to Genting too. HAHA!
E-learning day sucks for me. Might as well go to sch. Anyway its over.
And, i totally agree to what was written in your devotion. Satan is trying hard to come through us. True enough it leads me to question whether God will forgive me or not. It makes me feel that I'm taking advantage of the situation. So since i'll be forgiven, i might as well sin and say i'm sorry. I just feel like that. But many things on earth I feel is beyond science, beyond literature, perhaps even beyond personal experiences.
So, let us just work, look, hope and trust in one direction. Away from that of anything that belongs to the world.
I'm always lost within myself. Lost within sin. To all, BAD HABITS NOURISHES BEST IN THE GROUND OF TIREDNESS.
Stress is very common too huh? Well, just crazily smile at the difficult path and know that you are building your endurance. Commit to God.
sometimes i feel that there is no God. But i know that there is no servant without a master.
Be happy. Hv a safe journey:)
God bless everyone of u :)
well said(: you have a really good insight and i guess it helps in lit class, huh. hahas(: i have been blessed by your words, and you have helped strengthen my resolve to live for Christ. you have put me to shame in a sense that you have such a passion to live for Christ, and to spread His Word, but here i am, still struggling to start. /:
stress is common, as are bad habits, but it's a matter of handling them. everyone has them, right? (: i guess we have much to learn, huh.
ohwells. may God help us all. take care, kayy?(:
God has changed you radically, and im sure He will use you and lift you up(:
