God will make a way

..for me. I woke up today feeling as if i've so many kilograms of issues and burdens and thoughts and things to do and deep feelings and what not. And so it reminded me of sunday's sermon:

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and i will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for i am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for you souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." - Matthew 11:28

Farmers in ancient Israel used to train an inexperienced ox by yoking it to an experienced one with a wooden harness. The straps around the older animal were tightly drawn. He carried the load. But the yoke around the younger animal was loose. He walked alongside the more mature ox, but his burden was light.

Jesus is saying, "I walk alongside you. We yolked together. But i pull the weight and i carry the burden."

(above extracted from somewhere else few years back.)

Just now, I opened my bible and i read this verse,
"When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom." Proverbs 11:2
I see it as a time for me to really humble myself and come to God, with no pride in me and engage in Him, with obedience not exemption, and copying His example. ya. Guide me God.

God will make a way
When there seems to be no way
He works in ways
We cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to his side
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way
He will make a way

10km Finisher

Hohoho. while most of you are still sleeping like a pig and drooling away on your pillow this morning... cass and i were running like mad and we completed the 10km run! =P

It was really wa. Actually for the first 2km i almost wanted to give up already because the pain at the right side of my stomach is so unbearable! I had to run and keep pressing onto it. The first 5km was the hardest in the whole race. It was until the first U-turn then i felt that the pain wasn't there anymore. phew! I guess the run did get better somehow although i felt like puking somewhere around 7km.

I had a drink at the last drink stop but i guess the water didn't go down all the way so i felt like puking immediately after that. I controlled and while i was running towards the finishing line.. leaving 50m ahead only i really want to throw up le. But there were so many people on both sides of the road and i thought to myself, "cmon.. i can't puke at this moment. die also want to puke only after the finishing line." And yes.. i pulled it through. Immediately after i cross the line i asked one of the guy where is the medical station, he asked what happened to me. I told him i need to puke.. (although i know that its probably quite common to puke..) Guess what he said..

"you go and puke at the side. further away."

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was like "wah loa". Ok fine if say its pretty common, need not have any special medical attention given. BUT can't he at least put it across in a more nicer way?

Anyway.. that's that haha.

I'm glad i finished the race. so proud of myself. =)

till the next race... (err.. shan't think about running for like next few weeks or months..) haha.

PS: cass ong, we made it! hurray!

Oh and super KIND YUTING sent me my favourite song! haha. THANKS LA.
Sang it at worship this morning and i felt like really wow. sang it for Him and Him only. =)

Enjoy and have a super good blessed week people!

As Goliath moved closer to attack,
David quickly ran out to meet him.
- 1 Samuel 17:48 (NLT)

He RAN out to meet him. He QUICKLY ran out to meet him.
What a brave young man. with only 3 stones in his hands.
And he is more than ready to face that ugly monster.

Me? I will seek to have such steadfast spirit too.
50 more days to exam period. 50 days for me to pump up.
And i will be ready to face those papers.

"All hard work brings a profit,
but mere talk leads only to poverty"
- Prov 14:23

All these while, i always believe that hard work doesn't pay off.
I even tell that to all my other friends out there.
Yet i stumbled across this verse somewhere(i cant rmb, maybe in dreams)
and it jumped at me. "..all hard work brings a profit.."
ya. maybe all these while i've just been complaining at the wrong things..
kept claiming that i've tried yet couldn't make it..
"...but mere talk leads only to poverty"
Have i been talking too much? and not working as hard as i should?

Whatever it is, time for a change in focal point.
Time to swim against the currents and towards the shore.
I'm.. ready to start the game. once again. =)

Take a long look at the shore that awaits you,
Don't be fooled by the fog of the slump.
The finish may be only strokes away.
