Learning

I thank God for devotions sent to my email, or even available in my tablet. I must say I've learnt something. God has been promoting me to go for fellowships. I know I have been busy even on Sundays. It is tempting to ignore that prompting but I made a promise to God. The promise of obedience so that I can have an exchange for a small grade in my first test. Suddenly, this verse kept coming to me:
Jeremiah 29:11 NLT
"For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."

I actually have 3 devotions available at different times of the day for me, to encourage me and to convict and remind me. I travel a lot on a daily basis, hence the devotions allow me to think, reflect and meditate while I'm travelling. I admit that I do feel lost without the devotions, and many times I know just reading about it isn't enough. This is because you can get used to the routine and backslide or go lukewarm. Not so good after all.

I'm also learning grace toward smokers, my family and myself. Learning to submit myself to God; learning to accept whatever God has planned and follow it through. Sometimes my silly brain will forget to do things but I've learnt to be forgiving and to make up for it.

As for my studies, I'm learning to be productive every travelling opportunity. Now I play my iPhone while taking down notes from my tutor at the States. He's really a good teacher. I'm not sure why but he doesn't just go through the slides. He encourages us to go through each discussions and send us new homework when we've went through the assigned one during lesson. The content he teaches is much much more complete.

I'm selected to be one of the jie mei for the bride-to-be this November. I'm actually worried and excited about it because I've never been involved in one. I don't mind being the servant of the bride that day (I love to serve, I suppose) but I'm so scared I'll crash the wedding. lol. I'll pray about it and if she ask again maybe I'll agree to it.

April is coming and ending soon. lol. I said that because I can't wait for it to be over. It'll mark a brand new life with less worries until my exam arrives. I'm still hopeful to get at least a B for my Project Management module.
