I flew back to glasgow from singapore at the wee hours of saturday, arrived on saturday afternoon itself. The flight was quite alright, slept the most i ever did!
the weather has been alright, no heavy showers yet, occassional sunshine:) could be warmer:)
it feels the same, yet different. paradoxical. nothing has changed, the place, the people, the workload, it just seemed that i translocated from glasgow to singapore then back again. yet, my being feels different.
anyhow, life goes on, hectic. its studying all the way, and walking with my other half even more closely. quite intense, but im determined to live it out and fight it on- after all that, i want to be "right" for the sake of my other half, for myself and for those i love on this earth.
im reminded and constantly remind myself that in Christ, there is perfect love. That He who has died for me, though it cost him utmost agony- physically, emotionally, mentally..., loves me endlessly. has loved, loves, and will continue to do so. even till death do us part (well we dont part actually haha). everything that i have been looking for in life, lies in the person of Jesus. It is true, that when we turn our eyes upon Jesus, the things of this earth will grow strangely dim.
I recall the words of a good JC classmate who said, "Love is like a fountain, it regenerates. Like YOU said to me, it comes from above, a higher being and source". Indeed, it is only when we allow ourselves to be filled with the love of Christ, can we go on to serve others selflessly and steadfastly, in the name of true love.
And for your grace and love that has been poured out so abundantly in my life and through the lives of those you've sent, I am grateful and overwhelmed. Thank you.
"My soul is overhwhelmed with sorrow till the point of death, stay here and keep watch with me. .. Father, if it is possible, take this cup away from me. Yet not my will, but yours be done."
- Matthew 26:37-39
