Quick, Lord!

I don’t want to pray ‘one day’s anymore. I want to pray ‘now’s. Lord come now. Come quickly to my family. Hasten to them.

Hate my papers

Oh my gosh I hate the modules I’m taking this sem because of all the papers I have to write. I know they are only 20% but I can’t even seem to think of anything good enough for a B to write and quickly move on to other things! FRUSTRATED MAX!!! zzzzzzzz

Israel

Now I want to kill myself for not listening in class when RG had the Arab-Israeli conflict! Totally should have!

Glory, Honour and Power

Glory, honour and power belong to You
Glory, honour and power belong to You

Father will You come and open up our eyes
Fill us with Your heart, renew us with Your life
Consume us with Your majesty
Consume us with Your majesty 

because we are blind.

Glory, honour and power. These are all things that people want. Last night I had dinner with two friends and we were chatting about being tai tais or the male version of it next time. My friend said that although he wouldn’t mind being provided for by his wife, he would still want to work because a male tai tai may have money but not power. This is generally true of people especially guys. When you are working and have a career, you can be in control of your subordinates. Even though you are yourself under control and to many you will just look like another office worker, another face in the crowd, perhaps unless you are someone really powerful like Obama or Lee Kuan Yew. But people who strive for just tell themselves not to think about that and keep living in their lie.

It would be wise for us to be like the Roman centurion in Luke 7:1-10, recognising especially his words in v. 8: “For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” Romans 13:1 says “for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.” Two kings (at least) refused to recognise that they themselves were placed in high positions of authority under God’s authority: Belshazzar, king of Babylon (see his story in Daniel 5) and Herod Agrippa I, Roman-appointed king of the Jews (see his story in Acts 12:1-24). And finally God judged them.

O Father, may we recognise our place here in your Earth, that we too are but people under authority and all are accountable to You. Father will you come and open up our eyes.

Glory, honour and power belong to You!

Blessed Easter

“When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, Your consolations delight my soul.” (Psalm 94:19)

Very, very true. Have experienced it so many times, like when a friend sends me a very timely sms the night before exams with a verse that speaks exactly to how I am feeling, and you know that this rhema word is from God. Most recently, on Fri night before my Public Law paper when I was getting very stressed up and felt like giving up, my BSF group leader, without me telling her about my exams or when they are, messaged me 2 Chronicles 20:17. Very thankful for such people who surrender their lives to God to be used for times such as this.

Blessed Easter Sunday, btw!

Blessed Redeemer

Blessed Good Friday everyone.

Idea

I feel like compiling a list of funny pictures on Thio’s ppt slides, like “bald assertion” and “your head; the point”. Might do a post on it next week just for fun =)

Grouse

Very annoyed by people around me who just want to go to where the money is, and there are many like that in law school
