Well, so far, it has been a good week, despite having tough tests this week. However, other things that happened along the day made it a good week. Let's see...I'm thinking where to start...

Alright, let's start on Tuesday:
Tuesday is the day when Evangelism is going on. My friends from IVCF, Georgia and Robyn, go around campus to do some spiritual survey and hopefully that they'll be able to share the Good News with some students. Anyway, I actually wanted to do this, but I have no COURAGE. To those who knows me for some time would think that I have courageous because I like taking leadership positions and I'm very outgoing and stuff. Well, sadly, when it comes to declaring Jesus to the world, I feel timid. (Geesh, I'm SO GUILTY man....) Moving on, I prayed that God would open doors of opportunity for me to witness for Him. I was not sure if I would have the courage to approach some random people and ask them about their faith or sharing Christ with them. Anyway, this Tuesday, it was like right smack in my face. How funny because Robyn bumped into me; and before this, I was contemplating if I should go do Evangelism. Anyway, after seeing Robyn, I knew that I should take that step of faith. And funny how she was actually praying for someone! [God works in mysterious ways] Anyway, with just this one short experience, God was revealed mightily. I prayed hard for COURAGE and He gave me courage; and when I did not have the words to say, He provided them. It's like Moses and the burning bush... And he told the Lord that he did not know what to say; but the Lord said that HE will give him the words to speak. Awesome! =) I was deeply touched with this experience (evangelism)... like my friend said, "it is addictive" Yeah man.... hehe... ;)

Thursday:
Thursdays are my favorite! (including Fridays). Why Thursdays... It's because it's Bible Study time! Awesome group. I love my leader! She is just awesome. After every Bible Study, I feel so refreshed by the Lord. No matter how long or short or where we meet, God never fails to meet us - it's like He is ALREADY there, just waiting patiently for us to come and have fellowship with Him. =) This week, I was reminded of God's love and faithfulness... and how important it is for me to always read the Bible, do my devotion, and pray. The Word of God is our daily bread for our spirit. The more we read it, the more we want to know God... It's addictive too, ya know.. Hehe.. And His Word is POWERFUL! =) I truly treasure Thursday nights because not only do I return home with a renewed spirit; I return home knowing that I've found a lasting friendship which God has blessed.

Oh, and this reminds me... How I miss my CG back home. Abang Joe, and Lil Li and my CG friends. =)

It still amazes me how God provide different people in my life during different seasons of life. So many amazing people have entered my life; and without them, I would not be who I am today. And I pray that in as much as those people have made a lasting influence in my life, I want to be that "somebody" too in someone else's life... ;)

Yes, Lord, use me to be a blessing to others.
