The truth about me
Guo Feng is not patient and he is not kind.
Guo Feng does envy, does boast and is proud.
Guo Feng is rude (at times), self-seeking, is easily angered and he keeps record of wrongs.
Guo Feng does delight in evil (at times) but does not always rejoices with the truth.
Guo Feng does not always protects/trusts/hopes/perseveres.
BUT...Guo Feng knows Jesus and Jesus is all of that he isn't.
With Jesus, Guo Feng can change all that.

I pray this for myself:
I don't wanna lose myself in this stupid rat race and this paper chase.
I must not forsake my birthright, SPMS is my home ground and it mine to lead.
I want to be the link for people to find answers in science.
Hebrews 12:16
See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son.I pray this for the College of Science:
People may see God in things they see and do.
May theirs hearts be open to hear the word of God.
Roman 10:14-15
"How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"
I pray this for my ministry:
It's not about saying "God, here I am, send me!"
But more of "God, send me and now I am here, urge me on so that I will not give up"
James 1:4
Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

Job 14:14
If a man dies, will he live again?
All the days of my hard service
I will wait for my renewal to come.

The Exam-smart Generation...3 weeks into my uni life...some observations i have made...
Singaporean students are too exam smart for their own good...
Whenever a lecturer drifts a bit off from the lecture notes, they switch off...
For example, "you will get to this in more detail in year 2...."
People start to give the "i shall not bother about this" look...
At the end of the day, a university education is not about the exams.
It's about the skills you learn, and passing the exams should come naturally.
I should be glad that the Prof. decides to share his expertise so openly...
I should be glad that my profs are from different lands, even though it takes an extra effort on my part to undertand their accents.
I should know that it is by discipline that people can achieve.
I should be willing to learn and only through that can I do well.

was pondering about certain comments made on the ride back to hall...
well...is it that i m not forceful enough?
I guess not...just that sometimes things are not as easy as it seems
it is difficult to strike a balance between being forceful in pushing our point across and the need to obey & support our leaders...
the dynamics differs from group to group...i can't just put my point across that easily
also, changes need to be made - I agree
HOWEVER...changes don't happen overnight, it takes patience and yes i m getting weary too...it doesn't just take conviction to push across change but i need to live out the change too or else how can others be convinced of it?

"The test for a good leader is not to lead a group that is doing well and growing. The hallmark of a good leader is the ability to lead a group that is stagnant and needs grooming."

And even though sometimes Your ways
I cannot understand
I'll never walk away because my future's
In Your handsLord, even though I may be dry and I am dreading this lap of the race...
Help me perservere on and remember that You are the one that i am running for...
The race for the crown is not a sprint but a marathon...and You are the water points along the way!
Philippian 3:14
I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

I am dry...
I was really tempted to walk out just now...but i didn't..WHY?
I guess it is because it is not easy to give up something u really
value and you know that more can be done. I desired to be refreshed,
yet I ended up dry. I need Your answer, please show me Your way.

My eyes are ever on the LORD,
for only he will release my feet from the snare
Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
The troubles of my heart have multiplied;
free me from my anguish.
Psalm 25:15-17Sometimes i feel as though i am the only one in this fight
and no one else understands my burdens and fears. I just want
to run to God right now, because only He can have the answers
to all the unknowns and only He can fill me up once again...
I want to be refreshed and renewed...
