long randoms

it's nearly 2a.m. I was awake mostly because I was chatting with someone I got to know some time ago. I am not so sure if I can really call her a friend because I don't even know her real name. But I completely understand her journey.. I have been through that stage before.

I am enjoying the last of the holidays. Holidays mean not having to teach a classroom of kids. I love seeing my kids, I love teaching them. It just gets tiring after a while. I don't really fancy speaking aloud very much. I really prefer writing. If I could express myself better, possess better grammar skills with flowery language, I would probably like to be a writer. No one believes that I am naturally an introvert. Life has trained me to be an extrovert though.

I really love how reading the bible causes me to clear my mind and sharpen my thoughts. It sets my perspective right and aligns my heart aright once again. I feel in tune with God. And I am not even talking about what I had read from the bible. Like, how does the book of Judges help in all these? I can only reckon that the bible is really a living word, and the spirit of God who leads the writing of His word is present.

CG today was awesome. The whole family was present. We celebrated 2 persons' birthdays. It was a nice feeling to see everyone. I am praying for greater positive changes in the lives of these precious ones of God. They are so dear to me. I think it's true, how when you pray more for someone, you tend to feel more for them?

I am really flattered when one of the worship leaders told me that the first person he thought of playing the acoustic guitar for the new song he had composed is me. I must be one of the least experienced one around. Just like what I shared with a friend whom I gave a lift home after cg today; the more rotten a person used to be, the more the grace of God is evident in that person's life. It's the same.. when one is skilful in the instrument that they play, they can get away with just about anything.. but when one is not, and in need of God's grace, then people can see the hand of God at work.

I appreciate moments like these, writing out my thoughts. Now I shall continue reading the seven levels of intimacy.. which I am enjoying very much. I learnt a lot from the book! And I am consistently challenged! Thank God I found the book!
