hi! Its been a long long time since I last wrote.Yawn..wat a nice saturday! Happy national day! =)
Past few days had q a lot of activities, went to gym with weihao, now arms still feeling sore. OOpss...speaks a lot of how "trim and fit" I am. Really lack exercise man. But it really feels great after sweating it out. Feel so healthy all of a sudden.
Thursday we went to weihao's house to bake a cake for Vene. Its her B'day today, same as National Day. We really had a fun time, and enjoyed myself very much chatting and talking to them. A lot of unity and team spirit involved, then we also did potato salad together. Felt very glad then, and really thank God for each and everyone who availed themselves.
At nite we had CG! Vene was really touched when she saw the cake we baked. And she said that the bag we gave was very "her". (which was chosen by me...hor hor hor) haha, after 5 years of being under her leadership, I think I really noe her well. =)
Just wanna share at this point that i really give thanks for her, and she has really taught me a lot of things thru out these 5 years..encouraging, stretching, counseling, pushing me, so that I could grow. Really see her as my role model, and wanna be such an inspiration to my mbrs when i become a leader too.
That being said, I recognise that each individual has diff gifts and leads differently. There were ofcos times when i tried to be like her, but realise that it doesn't really work on me! Then God showed me that I was to be like Jesus, not to be like man!
Something that vene shared with me on thurs really struck me, she said, "Xiaojia, u cannot always rely on me, u have to be on your own!"
Which is really very true, that I can't follow wat man does, but my confidence must always come from the Lord.
-----
Thinking a lot these days, feel that I have grown over the few weeks and God is moving me up to a new level. These few days there is a clear indication that God is with me as I pursue the things He called me to do.
In the new sem would have many challenges ahead. With the part time job, tuition, family, school, church and vcf..wow, really like a lot.
wah...all the more I need God! =)
