It's the 26th of March already and a third of the year has just passed by. In my mind, I can only think of one thing to describe how these 3 months have been - a Roller Coaster ride. Here's a recap of some of the highlights: -
- Ended my AY0708 with an Excellent GPA of 4.0 :)
- Had a traumatic car accident
- Had a wonderful Easter celebration
In the midst of all these, an encouragement from my dearest Friend keeps me going.
Just 3 days after the terrible accident happened, I was feeling very discouraged and found no strength to do anything. I was waiting at the bus stop for my bus to come and was feeling tremendously edgy. In my heart, I was complaining, angry and feeling sorry for the events that turned out in my life. Then God spoke to me, " Hey, look at the sky." As March 2008 was a month of record rainfall, the sky was overcast with gloomy clouds. I mumbled in my heart, "Ya right! Even the clouds look bad. Things are definitely bad, there's no sun at all! How terrible a situation I am in!" At that instance, I suddenly had a revelation. God impressed within my heart saying, "Surely the overcast clouds are blocking the sun. Things look bad and the rain is definitely coming. However, remember the rain that falls is given the responsibility to water the harvest you are sowing for. And further more, how long can the rain last? Eventually, the rain will run out and the clouds will be gone, the sun is going to come out."
How true it is, no trials or tribulations will last forever.
Rom 5:3-4
And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope.
I am indeed coming out stronger, with a greater anointing for the rest of this exciting year, 2008.
PS: Anyway this is my favorite birthday present from my beloved CG, N363! Thanks guys!
