i heard a word from God.....

While attending the church service last Saturday, the Holy Spirit in me spoke to me about my walk with God. I've been neglecting God due to busy working on my assignments. The voice spoke to me that i've not spending time with Him!
Indeed, for the past one month, my prayers had reduced and my heart is so in to complete all my 3 assignments by month end. I've been using my own strength, my wisdom and placing the heavy burdens on myself. This is the weakness that i've. When i faced with stress, i always use my own strength instead of God's strength.

This morning, while reading the daily bread, there's this verse written:
"Your Word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart." - Jer 15:16

Reading God's words always bring forth relevations and delight. God is so full of wisdom, and he is a God of humor. Sometimes after my prayers, i feel my heart delights, i can smile even walking on the street to think of His greatness! haha...

Self-reflection on my "tough" day

Yesterday was a very tough day for me...i was being scolded by my cell group leader. I was supposed to celebrate birthday for one of my cell group sister after the mass cell group meeting at Riverwalk. Taking into assumption that we would be celebrating outside the Conference Room, i did not thought of any others. However, i realised that they wanted to celebrate in the Conference Room, and i was very confused with the instructions given here nor there. It ended up being quite an awkward situation and i was reprimanded by the cgl.

Taking into reflections of what happened, i learnt a few things:
1. Never take into assumptions of anything, always ask when in doubts.
2. It's good to see through arrangements ourselves, rather than having the thoughts that someone will take control.
3. Take authority of tasks and responsibilities given to you.
4. Learn to lead rather than to be led.
5. Accept punishments when things go wrong.

The only thing that i am glad is that i never try to find excuse for my mistakes. Basically, i think that is the only good point that i have. Anyway, i take it positively and a good learning journey for me as my Christian walk.

Ongoing studies

My Exams in Aug was over, and i attained a Grade 'B' for both. I was expecting a 'A' for one of the modules as it was a pretty easy paper. However, did not manage to make it. Of course, i felt disappointed but got over it and currently preparing for my 3 assignments to be submitted in end Oct. Wow! Only a 3 weeks grace period!

I'm thinking whether should i continue my Masters after my Graduate Diploma, or should i go for Bachelors for the Human Capital Management in UniSim. I find that in Singapore, a local uni cert is still more recognized that any other overseas uni. I've taken my Bachelor of Science in Computing by distant studies, and it seems that government sector don't recognized it at all!

Anyway, i still have 6 more months to think of my education advancement, and right now, i should be more worry about my assignments.....
