Update.

It's been some time since I last got to update this blog. I've been having some stressful moments worrying about things that I suppose I shouldn't need to worry about.

Currently I'm living in Spartiv, bunking in Andrew Kok's room for the time being. Amy has entered Yougo hostel and is currently settling down and living with her old roommates. My coursemates and I will move to Kuzmin hostel on Monday when the people staying there evacuate our rooms. Of course I'll have to rush to the dean's office with Amy on Monday to obtain my permission slip to enter Kuzmin to stay.

Now I've not unpacked, for fear that moving later will be very much troublesome. I'm also not too happy because I'm disturbing Andrew's privacy. Staying at Spartiv means I'm staying as a guest in a friend's room. I guess I should be thankful that I have a bed and don't need to sleep on the floor unlike some of my other friends. Then again, I want very much to have a permanent hostel and great roommates. But it doesn't seem like that'll happen this year. I have to adapt, to keep thinking positive thoughts for whatever happens to me.

Went to church today. The message title was "The Journey-Part 1-Ready to Travel"
It seems like God spoke to me and told me to prepare to take a journey with Him, so be obedient to His words, and to have faith in His plans, and He will provide me with everything I'll need. It won't be easy, but as I was reminded today, He has never failed me in the past, so why would this time be any different? I need to trust Him, to place my life in His Hands and to allow Him to shape and mold me into the vessel that He can use for His Work here on this earth. And the molding and shaping process is what will hurt the most. I suppose I have to endure it so as to be able to increase and to be prepared for more things in the future.

Exodus 12:1-12 Talks about the preparation for the passover. How God gave instructions and how the israelites had to follow or perish. And how God provided them with all they needed by allowing them to "plunder" the Egyptions before leaving Egypt. Exodus 14:5-7,10-12 talks about needing to have faith in whatever God does.

The world promises destiny, but one is always left wanting more. God says today, "come on a journey with Me". I guess I have to prepare and go. Whatever comes will be from God. And I take comfort in these words that God hath said to me: "I will not allow you to go though something that you are unable to stand, I will only give you tests and trials that I know very well you are able to get though and by that, although it may very well hurt you to the bone, but if you pass the test, you will come out a better man."

Lord Almighty, my insignificant life is in Your Hands. Please protect and guide me along. Amen.
