Let His words sink in - that's essential to regain a meaningful and inspiring walk with my Lord daily. Last night, I suddenly remembered I needed to teach for Teens Service on Saturday. That precise moment, before I slept, I panicked! What a moment to have. How can I prepare when I have my Graduation Project proposal due next Monday? I haven't started writing my proposal yet and I need to do tedious research... When it comes to undergraduate papers, one needs to research about works that have been done in the field, make references to other scholars, before one writes about the signifance of one's research paper. So 麻烦 right? But this helps to protect other scholars' intellectual property. Anyway, yes, I panicked about this but I later thought: "Aiya just go and sleep. Let tomorrow's worries come and I'll handle them step by step." So today, as I sat down to prepare for my lesson, I felt a kind of peace within me. I wasn't thinking about my graduation project proposal too. I know all will be well in the end. As I read Purpose-Driven Life to prepare for my lesson on servanthood, I myself was reminded about my serving! That's why I like teaching. It leads you to experience the lessons first so that you can teach with conviction. I allowed the words to sink in. I allowed the words from Purpose-Driven life and the Bible to sink in and I regained my inspiration. After a past week of uninspiring QT, I realise the problem is I didn't allow the words of truth to sink in, so that it may be embedded in my heart, and eventually, in my life. It's hard work keeping up.... but who says life is easy? The narrow road. Oh dreadful. But my eyes are on Him. My prayer? Lord, I don't look at my problems anymore. I don't pray that you control me and my bad habits. My only prayer is that You, my Lord, increase Your capacity within my heart and life. Okay, back to preparation! On a random note, right now, I can smell the grass-like stench of 霸王, that herbal shampoo that Jackie Chan endorses. Mummy's washing her hair now. She wants hair like Jackie Chan. |
