This is a crazy life.

came home, did some tidyin up. left for the Botanics for "space monkey" outing!
haha will post pictures soon and you can guess who's part of this 5-ver gang.
430pm- home... my calfs are dying. im SO tired. I really am....

Lessons Ive learnt:
1. being a witness for Christ Jesus is not just about saying the words and telling people they need the Lord. its about being a living testimony (it adds power to your words and is soooo influential), living as Christ were in you.

2. its not about getting what i need, or what i think the kingdom needs- but its sometimes, making yourself nothing and offering other services nothing to do with church to people. even if seems like they are "making use of you" . you get what i mean. theres a fine line between stupidity and humility. but be careful, what seems like foolishness to this world may not be so in the eyes of jesus.

3. love your patients and never demand you way around the wards. for even if you are in a commanding position, you need not BE superior like its "supposed" to be. You do not need power to be influential.

4. But work hard, measure yourself against the standards of God and not Man. competence is what gains people's trust in you, coupled with compassion and care. God strived excellence.

5. do not seek rewards for yourself, because if you do, youd be hurting when rejection finds you straight in your face. not once, not twice.... but even more. Seek First His kingdom and His righteousness, and all the rest will be given to you. Seek God. He's all we need in this life and forever. there is great joy in surrendering :)

6. if you must, excuse yourself and cry behind toilet doors. but when you do, allow only 5 min. "its not about me Jesus, its about you."

It's the road less taken, but i know He's love has never left you since yesteryears
It's a long and winding road, I hope you enjoy every twist and turn.

You are now living for Christ and your life are so exciting everyday. With the limited resouces like time that you have, you have already been making full use of it for study, work, church work, etc. Continue to pray and reflect on all the things that you are doing.
