Last few days before army

Enough is said, enough is known.
I am thankful for God placing so many people in my life to even encourage me on and tell me just that extra bit about army life.
I believe army life is like a prelude to life's even bigger and greater challenges. All the world has to offer are pitholes and traps for anyone to fall in and sink, with little or no room for escape. The bible tells us in Hebrews chapter 12 that we are to lay aside every weight (meaning every burden, not only sin), and the sin which so easily ensnare us. My prayer is that I hold on God's word as I enter into army, being vigilant and watchful in every aspects of myself.

God has shown me many things through the week. There is the interview at SMU, which sort of went by in a blurred. God granted me a chance to have lunch with wee beng after my interview. We had a good talk over lunch. (his treat, haha) Looking back, I realized God is still in control.
This past week was quite a trying week. For one, the stigma of our Church's separation still kinda linger and bothers. Also, I somewhat just feel myself so powerless in doing anything for God. Been trying to get my Jc-friends to come to Church, with only excuses and rejection as the common reply. Talking to fellow brethren sometimes really echoes that lack of true Love.
Have been praying during the week. Still I believe God has His plan and He will work accordingly to His pleasure, at the right and perfect timing.

I am still learning how to trust God to work. Or even use me for His bidding. I am tired of trying to do things myself, in the very flesh. Keeping my time in prayers for many things in my life, for the church, for many brethren. There sure is alot of things to pray for.

Not going to blog for awhile. I really hope to see this blog being used as a tool to edify and build people up, and as a mean to thank and praise God.
