The Lord is good to me!
"The Lord is good to me and so I thank the Lord!
For givin' me the things I need,the sun and rain and an appleseed,
Yes, He's been good to me.
I owe the Lord so much,for everything I see,
I'm certain if it weren't for Him, there'd be no apples on this limb.
He's been good to me.
Oh, here am I 'neath the blue, blue sky, A-doin' as I please!
Singin' with my feathered friends,Hummin' with the bees.
I wake up every day,As happy as can be
Because I know that with His care My apple trees, they will still be there.
Oh the Lord is been good to me."
WHAT A MARVELOUS AND BEAUTIFUL YET FULL OF TRUTH SONG!
how true that God has been so good to me!
i kicked start my first day of sch today in psychology. and i really LOVE this course!
i finally found something that really interest me beside music :)
its been one year since i last studied in a school. i have spent my entire year working and resting.
many different jobs i took up. teachers in various special school and primary school.
took up what i didnt expected to do - help out and teach in my old innova jc 's cca. work as a referee and more which i was willing to try.
so mamy dozens of job i took up. and what for? ultimately i just want to try out loads of diff genres of jobs to have a cleaer idea of what i LIKE and what i am CALLED to do. hmm and guess what, i really had an idea now.
i have no idea how i got to where i am now. its really miracles after miracles! open doors after open doors! i mean, i used to pray when i was younger like 5 years ago, for God to use me and stuff like finding out my destiny. and i work all my strength out an even strategize and plan my route by taking up certain stuffs like cca and etc. but hey, i got NOTHING MUCH. not becus i didnt pray, infact i did prayed.
whats wrong? i depended on myself. where's God in the whole picture?
i am sooooo thankful for God for giving me another chance to almost relive the life that i thought its impossible for a moment. so many things happened in the whole of last year. many people criticized, humiliate, shame me by giving many redudant comments. and best of all, they are my family members. what could be worse?
i felt my only friend then was Jesus. i am so glad i chose to go back to my first love. i thought casually today whil in the bus and in lecture. perhaps this is part of His's plan as well! that i enter SIM psych, becus this is interest, the best course that fits all my strengths and put it to good use. i always know that i have a strong passion in children and in elderly. i have thought of going into special school and almost took up teaching long term there! and yet suddenly against all odds, or perhaps its not coincidents, but thru the guidance of the holy spirit that i got here today.
i hav never ever thought of entering JC once, i have never ever thought of going SIM, never ever thought i would favour psychology. in fact, i dont even know why i get thru all these! it is truly his plans.
Job 23: 13-14
But once He has made his decision, who can change his mind? Whatever he wants to do, he does. So He will do to me whatever he has planned. He controls my destiny.
Ephesians 4: 1-4
Therefore, I a prisoner for serving the Lord, beg u to lead a life worthy of your calling, for u have been called by God.
right now there so many things i have to balance on both of my little brittle hands.
i dont know how in the world am i gonna balance them. studies in SIM, teaching and helping out in choir and musician club in ijc, teaching to the special kids in Minds, worship practices and recordings, new band practices,wedding band practices, visiting and spending time with my family. there are so many things!
and guess what makes it "worse", its that i am on my "own" where im so called in charge of most of the events happening in my life. of course im alittle scare, but i KNOW AND I KNOW AND I KNOW THAT ITS NOT BY STRENGTH AND NOT BY MIGHT, BUT BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT! :)
I really really need God's strength this year. Jesus, provide for me the strength, the wisdom, the rest that i need!
"Every seed I sow will grow into a tree and soon there'll be apples there for everyone in the world to share.The Lord is indeed good to me, using someone as small as me.
God bless u and Ciao! :)
