hey everyone! I'm here to share my personal testimony of God's faithfulness. Though it may not be about pioneering thingy, however is still a blessing for our almighty God!
to start off with, i am currently a sec 4 student which means it's my O lvls this yr! yepyep. the common question asked would be, " How to cope between ministry and studies?" and well, on top of these two areas, there are also our family, friends and cca commitements to juggle with eh? hees. disclaimer please. it's never easy to be an all-rounder, however, God will see us through when we seek Thy Kingdom first! :D
frankly, i have not been doing realli well in my studies since sec 2 and my foundation is realli weak for a graduating student. i felt realli discouraged when i realise that i could not cope with my studies and ministry at the same time. with that desire to be part of the harvesters in CG08, i made this prayer to God in the First Frontier Camp that i want to be used greatly despite the approaching national exams. i didn't want to be stifled in extending the Kingdom Of God because of my studies. We are Christians that happened to be students, not students that happened to be Christians! we exist for a higher calling, Amen? (:
like Pastor Jeff who warned us that testings will come...
not long after camp, my testings came.
i was so afraid my parents would scold me for my poor results, thus,i only showed them my results the day before school reopened.
never did i expected it but i got serious scoldings from my parents and they threatened to force me to move out of my house and cancel my tuition (which i very much needed) if i continued to serve God. i knew that they were serious about what they said and they would most probably take action as they repeated what they said in the following day. never in my life have i seen my parents so firm in their warnings and repeated it to me over and over many times. indeed, i was taken aback at that instance. i realli didn't know what to do as it was a difficult decision to make. after much praying, i jus made the decision to continue serving God and to follow God no matter what, for He has jus done far far far far too much for me... i couldn't bear to turn my back on Him. aiyah, dunno how to use words to describe. =x hehes. still, with much fear in my heart, i simply trust God and went for service that saturday.
i realli dunno how but God just made a way. (:
i went home and dad jus gave me the money to pay my tutor the next morning when i'm going to have tuition.
he didn't even said anything about canceling my tuition or scold me for going for service!!! wow, i'm amazed by God's grace. Indeed, faith can move the mountains!
jus wanna encourage those out there who may be facing parental objection of ur faith, never never give up!
God'll never shortchange you when you give Your all to the KOG. ((: Trust and obey Him, and His blessings will be porured upon you.
btw, i have improved quite abit in my A and E maths! *applauses* =x
yay, all glory goes back to God! ^^
yup, if you're felling rather tied down by all the things you have to tend to in your life but realli want to be used by God...
JUS WHACK! God'll back you up with everything you need and turn your weaknesses into strengths if you continue to trust in Him! (:
testings will come but fear not as God allowed them to equip you for greater things to come!
jiayou for CG08! all schools will be won! :D
LET"S HAVE A BREAKTHROUGH TODAY! AND YES, IS TODAY! DON'T HESITATE! :D
