Through It All

Jeremiah 29:11 - "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope."

Even as I began to ask God to manifest His thoughts towards me, He started leading my imagination to a wonderful image.

In the vision, was a beautiful picture of a dad sending his boy to school. Even as the child entered into the classroom, the dad stood by the windows of the class watching his dear boy by the side, ensuring that he would be fine. To the boy, after parting with his dad at the door of the class, the presence of his dad watching by him could be felt strongly, though not seen.

With this impression, I was led to another thought. This time, I saw myself in several occasions. One was when I was in primary school, where I was so naughty, constantly being punished for giving problems to my teachers and bullying my classmates. Another one was in secondary school, so lazy, not studying all the time. One funny one was me doing all sorts of crazy things for this girl whom I thought I will marry. A depressing one was where I lost all directions in life, wandering all over the place. A joyful one showed the time when I first came to know God, critical in attitude, but touched by His love.

Though all of the scenarios look so diverse, with happy and unhappy ones but the common thing was, my Father was there looking through the window ensuring that I was fine through it all. This time round, I am assured that He will be there too.

Updates

It's been some time since I last blog and I must say that this period is the busiest of all my entire 3 years in Republic Polytechnic. FYP submission is just around the corner and I have been spending the last entire week coding and writing reports til late into the night.

However I must say that I am rather pleased with the accomplishment of my group. For the majority of the school, everyone is doing web applications and if they can shun any project requiring the use of Java they surely will! For my team, we are a little adventurous. We undertook a project that enables users to share images and chat on a peer to peer network. The entire project is Java based and utilizes JXTA for the networking portion and Swing for the GUI portion

The process of developing the application is tough, very tough but it's tremendously enriching! I have definitely enjoyed the fruits of it and I am looking so forward to the day of presentation! I will be back blogging more and I promise more down to earth stuffs. LOL!

Title-less

Unbounded is Your power, Lord
All things You have accomplished
Those things which appear to be impossible to me
They are very possible for You
The very second I have no strength
It's your love that is perfect
The moment I believe
The miracle is real
Not by might, nor by power
but by Your Spirit, oh God
The moment I believe
The miracle is real
