Sorry everyone for the late late posts recently. Because I was busy with examinations recently.
But............
IT IS FINISHED~!
The end came with the joy for everyone. The battle is over, for the moment at least. Everyone's happy with the break. It is a well-awaited breather for everyone. Though I know friends who are still mugging even when the holidays are here to stay for a while (Eyes at Desmond in disbelief. Hahaha.)
Basically studying for the past few wks. Almost everyone was grumbling that why this year's exams have to end so late. My gosh! This is the first time NTU is ending their exams in DEC. Yes, DEC. The time of celebration and stuffs. (Got a feeling I'll be poked by alot of the polytechnics students but nvm..) But nevertheless, it's over. Soon it'll be the start of a new semester where most of my classmates will be at attachment where I'll be still in school. Haiz. I want to start attachment soon~! But mine is only 2 months only. Only got myself to blame. Haiz.
Holidays are here. Going to work soon. Definitely. Coz I got quite a few expenses that I must need to cover for. But also got Inter-School Games coming up in December, not forgetting, Cheerleading workshops, cheerleading practices, etc. God, I need a flexible and good-paying job! *staring at Mac* Heheh. At the mean time, it's back to my VCDs watching time! My lovely Sam Soon! Hahah. Funny and hilarious. Halfway through, preparing myself to watch Goong after that. *pokes John* No money for movies, that's why la.
Oh ya, 1 more thing.
Christmas is coming!
Christmas is coming!
Christmas is coming!
Christmas is coming!
Christmas is coming!
Christmas is coming!
Christmas is coming!
Wuhoo~! The time of the year has arrived. The beginning of it all.
So fast, it's going to be Christmas soon. Going to have alot of gatherings and laughters and catching up to do. A-ru, class outing please! =x
Hahahah. Will update again soon, i hope. =) *Christmas songs*

What Jiayi told me on friday really struck me deep. It was a simple, always being said around, kind of becoming a cliche but yet when she told me this, it finally became a revelation to me.
What comes out of fear, does not comes out of faith. What does not comes out of faith, God is not pleased with it.
Rom 14:23b ...for whatever is not from faith is sin.
How many times have we done something out of fear? Our quiet time - that when we do not pray, our cgl will come after and ask us? Our bible reading - same as above? Evangelism - because our cgl told us to do so? Fasting - if we don't, the cg will not grow? Followup - if not, the people will not stay or even backslide? Tithes and offerings - If not, God will not prosper you back?
In our christian walk sometimes, we tend to get more of our mind and heart over our spirit. When our spirit says it is possible, our mind will try to overpower it, naming everything that will stop it, or changing it from a direction of faith to a direction of fear. Man was never created to fear.
So instead of doing things out of fear, do things out of faith: Quiet time - Do it out of faith, because you want to have a relationship with Him yourself, to know Him and to love Him. Bible reading - Do it out of faith, that you want to know the word well, to defend your faith, to keep hold of His promises. Evangelism - do it out of faith, reaching out with an unlimited mindset and of a heart that you want your loved ones to be saved, just like what happened to you. Fasting - Do it out of faith, humble youself before God, and know that He can provide any revivals (physically, spiritually) because you are desperately wanting it. Followup - Do it out of faith, that with every call, you can change a life, mould it and impact it so that they can be disciples of Christ. Tithes and offerings - Do it out of faith, because tithe belongs to the Lord, giving Him the Lordship and reverance over your life, offerings because you love Him so you give.
Romans 14: 22 Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves.
1 John 3:21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God.
