Slammed around and flying around is quite a normal thing in ACCT(advanced close combat training).Tis wk,i've been trained to do crazy things like doing slams n being slammed.It was tiring.Everytime,my body is aching when i booked out.My body aches shows that i am no longer as a young as i thougtht i am.Thank goodness,it ended jus yesterday wif a final test.The final test is simply hilarious.I have seen a 1.85 m fella throw a 1.65 m fella.A shorter guy realli hanged in the mid-air during the throw.As for me,i have to face my section mates who keep on chionging at me n giving me knee jab like ong bak.But at least i gave him 2 nice whack to the head, fell him on the mat.But at the end of the day,i got an aching chest as a prize for ACCT :-)
God is truly does work thru people.I have been asking God whether to study chemistry overseas or chemical engineering locally for 1.5 yr.The 1.5 yrs has been quite a journey for my faith and prayer life.At first,i thought i'll be going overseas since the financial means for it seems secure.But when my financial means become increasingly unsecure and i did nt want to burden my family financially,i wondered if i shld continue on that course of action.I wasn't keen on chemical engineering,but kept praying that God would show me the way.It took time to wait and pray,but it was worth it.Slowly,he placed alot of people in my life to tell me what i shld do.Initially i didn't get it but i've heard more n more confirmation as to what i shld do frm my shepherd,dad,friends to my first uncle.Most of them advised me to take the part-time course instead of going overseas.I'll still going to wait for a little more confirmation but i'll apply for it soon.
Throughout the whole time,I've realised that the process of seeking the Answerer is more important than jus finding the answer.Waiting is a part of that parcel.Even though,waiting is almost like holding your breath;it can be unbearable and uncomfortable.The silence that is present in the wait does not mean that he did nt ur hear or bother about your prayer.Rather,waiting is the time where God draws us closer to be with His Presence as we send our request n petition thru prayer.It's nt a chore but a privelege.This verse below from isaiah 30:18 very much describes my experience:
Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you;
he rises to show you compassion.
For the LORD is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for him!
he rises to show you compassion.
For the LORD is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for him!
